So men are saved by grace alone. Faith is the process through which we receive grace. Grace is not of works; all glory in your salvation belongs to God. Good works are necessary because God prepared them for you. This is how you are saved.
what part of “not as a result of works” are you not understanding?
Wrong again. It's by God's grace that we have been given faith.
Romans 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
