Is salvation by faith in Christ alone or in faith plus works? The major theme of Paul's letters is that salvation is a totally free gift - not earned by good works, rituals, or obeying laws. Eternal life is by grace through faith. However, when turning to James one finds what appears at first to be a direct contradiction.
