Summary

I believe justification is by faith alone. It is the gift of God, where the righteousness of Jesus Christ is imputed to sinners by faith. Nothing we can do, even in a state of grace, can earn any aspect of our salvation. Ephesians 2:8 says, "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God," But what about James 2:24? "You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone." How can these 2 concepts be reconciled?
