Do you agree with this statement, and if so, why? The Bible nowhere says we are saved by Faith alone, it says we are not saved by faith alone. Given that the Church existed for 15 centuries before the invention of the doctrine of "salvation by faith alone," it's simply not possible for this statement to be true.
