Nowhere in the Bible does it say faith alone. It is a disastrous doctrine that Marty Luther invented in the 16th century. (Just like 'Bible alone'.)
Romans 2:6-7 = For God will render to every man according to his works: to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life.
Psalm 62:12 = Also to You, O Lord, belongs mercy;
For You render to each one according to his work.
Proverbs 24:12 = Don’t excuse yourself by saying, “Look, we didn’t know.” For God understands all hearts, and he sees you. He who guards your soul knows you knew. He will repay all people as their actions deserve.
James 2:24 You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. <----< This text is about as plain as any text could be concerning works and justification is James 2:24—that is, it is about as plain as can be in telling us both that “faith alone” is insufficient for our justification, and that "works" are indeed necessary. Are we justified by faith? Certainly! By faith alone? No way! It's both faith and works, according to Scripture.
And there's the parable of The Rich Man and Lazarus in Luke 16.
And what about the parable of the talents in Matthew 25?
And please see ---> Matthew 25:31-40
There are so many many more.
Now, it IS true that Paul says in Romans 3:28 = For we hold that a man is justified by faith apart from works of law. (key words: of law When you see the words 'of (the) Law', Paul is talking about the Law of Moses, which have been fulfilled in Christ. Circumcision is no longer necessary, Baptism fulfills it, as now the Kingdom is open to ALL, Jews and Gentiles.) Please check out the above link, it's explains things much better than I can.
