Breaking Myths: Catholic Beliefs on Salvation and Eternal Life #catholic #religion #catholicchurch

_________________________________________________________________________
Are you tired of all the confusion in the Catholic Church? So was I! For this reason, I decided to intensely study the Catholic Magisterium in order to discern between what people say about the Catholic Church vs. what it actually says and teaches. If you are a confused Catholic, or are discerning becoming a Catholic, Reason & Theology offers you an in-depth examination of the situation in the Catholic Church that will help make sense of the confusion.

Very interesting question.
Ephesians 2:8-9 says "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast."

But James 2:26 also says "As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead."

Here's my understanding: We are saved through faith alone, without works. We are saved for believing that Jesus is our savior, and he died for our sins. However, in living our faith out in our lives, works is a necessary part of that, as we try to reflect Jesus day-by-day.

Edit: Rather than saying we are saved by faith alone, it is significantly better and more accurate to say that we are saved by grace through faith.

Council of Trent

Canon 9.  If anyone says that the sinner is justified by faith alone, meaning that nothing else is required to cooperate in order to obtain the grace of justification, and that it is not in any way necessary that he be prepared and disposed by the action of his own will, let him be anathema.

Catholics is faith plus works religion. Which is a different gospel, which is not a gospel.
