Your interpretation of it cannot be reconciled with the much more unambiguous teaching of James 2. Sorry.

How on earth is it ambiguous to say that we’re NOT saved on account of works?
What a massive steaming load.
But sure, let’s go with your claims and see where they lead. Tell me, what kind of works are enough to earn your way into eternal life?
I’m not *interpreting* it. People only interpret stuff they don’t like the meaning of to make it say what they want it to say and not what it really says.
I’m reading it and taking it at face value. It says what it says.
By grace through faith not of works so that no one can boast.
End of story.
