The same can be said for Roman Catholicism's own apologists since the time of the Oxford Movement, and their "tracts".

In fact, most modern-day RC apologetic follows that form even to the letter (for the same quotes are dredged out again & again, with there being no context shown if avoidable, either of the near-by and closely associated type, or of wider context for whichever early church note-worthy it is whom is being [allegedly] quoted.

There were five (count 'em 5) solas.

None of them are "alone" or were intended to stand alone.

It was when the 5 solas were all put together that they were meaningful, and quite useful.

So all the capitalizing, and bracketing with *** snowballs which you just engaged in --- is something of a misrepresentation of the "faith alone" as Luther and others apparently utilized the five solas.

Salvation by faith is totally scriptural you say.

Many agree to that.

Yet

is not alone, set aside from:

and all those together

Not;
