How do we know that faith alone can save?

Answered in 1 source

Faith alone, when given by God, is sufficient for salvation, as it is faith in Christ that justifies a sinner.

While James discusses the necessity of works as evidence of faith, it is important to understand that salvation comes by grace through faith alone, as affirmed in Ephesians 2:8-9. This faith is not a personal achievement but a divine gift enabling one to trust in Christ for salvation. The works that follow are not the means of attaining salvation but rather the result of genuine faith—a faith that God instills in those He has chosen.
