Many protestants insist that salvation is by “faith alone.” But when tested against Scripture — and even the principles of computer logic — the claim quickly falls apart. In this video, I examine the biblical if/then conditions surrounding salvation and show why the Bible consistently places works alongside faith as conditions, not results, of salvation.
