These verses do not teach justification by faith alone. They refer to physical healing, miraculous faith, or faithfulness in persecution:

Matthew 9:22 (KJV)

“Thy faith hath made thee whole.” → Refers to physical healing, not eternal salvation.

Matthew 15:28 (KJV)

“Great is thy faith...” → Her daughter was healed. It's about faith resulting in healing, not salvation.

Matthew 21:22 (KJV)

“Whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing...” → Instruction on answered prayer through believing, not a salvation verse.

Mark 5:34 (KJV)

“Thy faith hath made thee whole...” → Again, physical healing, not justification.

Mark 10:52 (KJV)

“Thy faith hath made thee whole.” → Healing of blindness, not spiritual salvation.

“Thy faith hath made thee whole.” → Refers to healing of a leper, though some see a deeper significance.

Luke 18:42 (KJV)

“Thy faith hath saved thee.” → The Greek sozo can refer to healing or salvation. Context: physical sight restored.

Mark 9:23–24 (KJV)

“If thou canst believe...” → A miracle account; the faith discussed is for healing, not regeneration.

These Verses are about Perseverance or Endurance (not initial salvation)

These mention faithfulness under trial or persecution — not how to be saved:

Revelation 2:13 (KJV)

“...hast not denied my faith...” → Commends endurance under persecution, not a faith-alone salvation teaching.

Revelation 13:10 (KJV)

“Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.” → Tribulation perseverance, not the means of justification.

Revelation 14:12 (KJV)

“Here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.” → Describes obedient saints during the Tribulation.

These verses involve Christian growth or general faith, not justification by faith alone:

James 2:17, 26 (KJV)

“Faith without works is dead.” → Often misused. James talks about dead/unfruitful faith, not salvation by works. But it’s not a “faith alone” verse either — it's a warning about ineffective faith.

John 2:23–24 (KJV)

“Many believed... but Jesus did not commit himself unto them.” → Raises interpretive debate.

Possibly a shallow or non-saving faith. Not a salvation promise.

Galatians 5:5 (KJV)

“We through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.” → Future righteousness (possibly reward/glorification), not initial justification.

“Building up yourselves on your most holy faith...” → Encouragement for spiritual growth. Sanctification, not salvation.

Psalm 56:3 (KJV)

“What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.” → Trust for courage. Not a salvation promise.

“Trust in him at all times...” → General encouragement to trust God. Not doctrinal teaching on justification.

Psalm 91:2 (KJV)

“He is my refuge... my God; in him will I trust.” → Assurance and protection, possibly messianic, but not an explicit salvation text.

Revelation 1:5 (KJV)

“Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood” → This is about what Christ did for believers, not a faith-alone salvation statement. It's a result of faith, but doesn’t state the condition (faith) explicitly.
