What does the Bible say about salvation by faith or works?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that salvation is by faith alone, not by works, as clearly stated in Galatians 2:16.

The Bible emphasizes that salvation is through faith, not by works, which is a central theme in Paul's letter to the Galatians. He repeatedly argues that adding works to faith undermines the grace of God. In Galatians 2:16, Paul states, 'Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ.' This underscores that our justification and salvation come solely through faith in Christ's completed work, not through our attempts at law-keeping or good deeds.
