Are We Saved by Faith Alone?

Dear Brother Ron

Are we saved by faith alone, or do we need works, too? Aren't works just evidence for salvation and cannot save us? If works could really save then are we saying we can earn our salvation and are sharing glory with God? If you say faith and works what do you do with this verse?

And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work Romans 11:6

Dear Thewitness

We are saved by the grace of God. But if we truly love God, we will do His work and live as He would have us live. By doing so, we convince others of God's love and encourage them to join us in worship and service to Him. How many people have rejected God because of the misdeeds of His supposed followers?

Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Jas 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

Best always
Brother Ron
