Your question needs context.

I am referring to anyone's version of “Faith Alone” and “Scripture Alone”; Which one do you believe is binding?
Both those concepts are found in the Bible. The Reformers got the Five Solas from the Bible, and they did well. So what do you believe? No faith alone and no Scripture alone?

"Sola Scriptura (Scriptura alone) was the “formal principle” of the Reformation—the authority that formed and shaped the entire movement from beginning to end. It meant that the Word of God was sufficient, and its purpose was to reposition the Bible as the final authority over the Church."

Pretty tough to argue the above.

Perhaps if you gave a little more detail; I didn't know there was more than one version. Who do you mean by "whose?" What are the different versions and how do they differ from one another?

John 20

"And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name."

Read the rest of the book and count how many times the word believe (th, d) is used.
You'll have the answer if you use the King James Bible.

With respect, rewording your question is not providing context. Clearly, I'm not the only person here who sees the need for it.

The right Faith comes by way of Scripture -----so Scripture is needed to inbirth the right Faith in you ----

so right Faith relies on scripture ----without hearing the Scripture you can't gain the right Faith -----

So the Scripture comes first----Faith is the result of you hearing the scripture ------So the scripture is binding to you receiving the right Faith

The 'biblical' one...

Whose? The Bible.

Question answered. Problem solved. ;)
You need to let everyone know whose "Bible" and whose "Faith alone" is binding?
