In the Lutheran church, the idea of Justification by faith alone has been the predominant dogma. Is this still a strong part of mainstream Christianity?

Do you mean that the followers of that church say to God "i can enter heaven because i had faith", not withstanding the person`s life did nothing at all in the way of self sacrafice?
thats interesting because when we leave these bodies the only thing we take with us is our spiritual growth,

Surely this is typical dogma of christianity because most likely it would be said that only that faith will enter heaven as well.

However all you need is as much faith that equals a mustard. Thats not very much, but that is the start of a spiritual journey.

I don`t like these dogmas. Dogmas separate people, "this is the only way".
Who can say they have the only way? The Mission of Maitrey The Eternal Divine Path has no dogma, because it is a Path and includes all other "ways" that are on the planet.
