“Faith alone” is not enough. You must “repent and be baptized,” from what Scripture says.

Otherwise, you are happy in your ongoing sin and have no reason to change. After all, all that had to be done was to have “faith.”

Even Satan knows in his heart that Christ is the Son of God, but that doesn’t save Satan, does it?

Don’t get me started on the Jewish perspective that Satan is not necessarily a ‘bad’ entity, but is there to test us, like a sparring partner or teacher, on behalf of God. That is perverted, but generally consistent when you don’t acknowledge the New Testament.

and to add to the list is the suggestion that “you must be born again.”

Um, ‘fasith’ is an active word, as in to faithe. A newborn into God’s Family has a perfect parent who will raise you up in the way that you should go. Continuing in sin is not tolerated by God as your parent.

If this is TRUE; why haven't you posted the relevant Scriptures?

We Prots have placed our faith in what we can read from the Book that Rome assembled; so long ago.

If you want us to believe something that is SO important; you'd best be giving us something to chew upon.

Don't be giving us, "Oh; by the way..." stuff from your 'traditions'.

The Mormons do this with their Doctrines and Covenants.

Not much LDS 'doctrine' is found in the Book of MORMON; but in the afterthought of the D&C's.

No. Faith alone is all you need. John 3:16: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

If you believe in him by faith you are saved. No works are are needed.
