Salvation is by faith alone inn Christ alone, not any of works.
I apologize; I did not realize you are so unfaqmiliar with the Bible and what Jesus said.
You took exception to my post 145 about repentance and baptism.
Repentance and baptism are not “works” in the sense that you imply; baptism is evidence of an individual's inclusion in the family of believers; and repentance for sin is an outward sign of true faith. My comment referred to the central misunderstanding of the Word that this pope displays through his heretical claim in the OP (Opening Post) and elsewhere. Of course the Lord wants our whole hearts, faithfully—Romans 10:17—has the pope not heard the Word of God? That is the question.
Christ Himself spoke to the Apostles about repentance after he had risen from the tomb in Luke 24:46-47.
He also said, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” (Matthew 4:17), and “I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance” Luke 5:31-32, and “Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3-5). These were his teachings that true faith is an inward submission to God, not an outward posture that lacks inner conviction, as demonstrated by a pope who does not reflect Christ's teachings.
John the Baptist taught the centrality of true belief instead of mere adherence to a religion as if it were a cult, and faith were a birthright: Matthew 3:7-11.
Paul also preached repentance to people who had heard the Word (as anyone would expect a pope should have done), but rejected Christ: Acts 2:36-38, and he proclaimed tirelessly, “repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ” (Acts 20:17-24).
While I did not understand your reference to a Hollywood film comedy from the 1950s in this context, I do try to discern faithfully the concept of salvation and the role that repentance and baptism play in our relationship to a loving God:
Romans 10:14-21.
In closing, “do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?” (Romans 2:1-4)
