Abraham believed and it was accounted to him as righteousness. Abraham believed that God would make him a father of many nations, not that he would be saved. Abraham was chosen by God and was made a friend of God. (Adoption)
Is it faith alone or Faith And... Romans 10:8-13 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth "and" in your heart,” that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” "and" believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with your heart you believe and are justified, ''and'' with your mouth you confess and are saved. It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who "call" on Him, for, “Everyone who "calls" on the name of the Lord will be saved.” After we are saved, we still need to ask our God and Father for the Holy Spirit to fill us with the Good Fruit that we are supposed to produce. Fill us with Love so we can be patient, kind and have peace and joy, goodness, faithfulness and self control in the name of Jesus our Lord and Christ, Amen. Matthew 7:19-23 Every tree that does not bear good "fruit" is cut down and thrown into the fire. So then, by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’ No one can have Grace Alone or Faith Alone without praying to The Father Alone and confessing Jesus as Lord Alone and being filled with the Holy Spirit Alone so we can be Born Again Alone. There should be more than 5 solas (5 alones?) because even Christ said, I am Not alone for My Father is with Me. You must be Born Again but even gifts alone will not save you. 1st Corinthians 14:1 Persue "Love" (Galatians 5:22,23) and Desire Spiritual gifts. (1st Corinthians 12-14)
