Jesus was unique in preaching the significance of faith exclusive from works for salvation. No other religion is based on faith-alonef. Faith is mentioned 280 times in the New Testament. An example is Jesus observing the powerful healing faith of a Roman centurion: "Assuredly I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!" (Matthew 8:10)
