Disagreements About Salvation

One of the disagreements that arose at the time of the Reformation was about what is needed for salvation.

Faith alone

Some Protestants believe that no matter what good work people do, salvation comes from faith alone.
They quote Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, in which he says that it is by grace that people are saved, through faith, and not by their own actions. (Ephesians 2: 8 - 10)

Faith and good work

Roman Catholics believe that faith must be accompanied by good work.
They refer to Paul’s letter to the Romans in which he says that God will treat people as their actions deserve. (Romans 2: 5-7)
