How do Protestants defend "sola fide" ( faith alone ) when James 2:24 states:

>You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone.

?

Moreover, if faith is really the best thing ever, why does the Bible say love is greater than faith in Corinthians?

Also, if Protestants say "sola scriptura", how come the Bible nowhere teaches "sola scriptura"?

And why would the Bible be the only authority, if 1) the Church preexists the Bible; 2) it was the Catholic Church itself that selected the books and compiled them into a "Bible" (so Protestants are actually worshipping a Catholic product)

It seems only Eastern Orthodoxy and Catholicism make any sense to me?

Your perspectives on this, if any?
