The way I have often heard it used is like this... "Our neighbors were very nice people but of a different faith than us" (meaning a different Christian denomination)
I think it is only used correctly when the faith in reference is one that does not believe in Jesus.

I see. I was thinking people could mean denomination or doctrine.

Right it apparantly is used that way by many. I am thinking this type of language is an unnecessary barrier between Christians.
Used in that context it could be said many I go to church with even some ministers, are of a different faith.

SE, guess we sort of agree on the one faith part when it comes to defining Christians.
I think it's apparant my definition of "the faith" is broader and more inclusive.

Another faith is way of saying they ain't one of us, but they ain't charismatic.

Timmy~ There are some on here who preach another way unto Christ, thought man made dress coeds of standards and traditions, other then by Gods perfect Agape and Grace (Jesus)! I believe they are dammed due to adding and taken from Gods true message of (Jesus) ~
For me it comes down to preaching another Gospel, as well as another faith, one of man~

Mr. Hoover Vacuum,
I can see Oneness Pentecostals from the PAJC perspective viewing other Christians as having "another faith" since they are not fulfilling their basic 3 step requriements for salvation. Most Christians "faith" is in Christ and his work at Calvary where most OP's "faith" is centered on Acts 2:38 and standards. For them anyone not obeying Acts 2:38 as they see it or adhering to their application of scriptures regarding dress code are then "of another faith".
What I don't see is this lunacy of some saying that Chrisitans who are not Oneness Pentecostals worship "another God".
