error Grace is not faith, you need to get off what ever you're on.
Acts 6:5 "And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of
faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch".
Acts 6:8 "And Stephen, full of
faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
G4102 πίστις pistis (piy'-stis) n.

now as for the translation, "Mary, Full of Grace, and Luke 1:28" here is a good topic on this,
Mary, Full of Grace, and Luke 1:28 | CARM.org
please note this section. The Bible and "full of grace"
The phrase "full of grace" in Greek is "plaras karitos," and it occurs in only two places in the New Testament; neither one is in reference to Mary.
"And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only-begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth," (John 1:14).
"And Stephen, full of grace and power, was performing great wonders and signs among the people," (Acts 6:8).
The first citation refers to Jesus who is obviously full of grace. Jesus is God in flesh, the crucified and risen Lord, who cleanses us from our sins. In the second citation, it is Stephen who is full of grace. We can certainly affirm that Jesus was conceived without sin and remained sinless, but can we conclude this about Stephen as well? Certainly not. The phrase "full of grace" does not necessitate sinlessness by virtue of its use. In Stephen's case, it signifies that he was "full of the Spirit and of wisdom," along with faith and the Holy Spirit (Acts 6:3, 5). But Stephen was a sinner. Nevertheless, where does the phrase "full of grace" come from regarding Mary?
The Latin Vulgate and other translations, now read that section.

now my comments, Acts 6:5 "And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man
full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch"
How come he's not FULL of "GRACE" here? here is the link to Bible hub and get all translation.
Acts 6:5 This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, as well as Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism.
Faith is viewed as that way by which God's gracious gift of salvation is received — through our faith — the way water flows through a pipe. ... God does not — and cannot — change, and his grace is completely reliable. God's gifts — and salvation by grace means that salvation is God's free gift — are never taken back.
so our Brother Stephen was full of Faith by way the the free gift of Grace came so the KJV is correct in saying full of Faith, because Stephen is a sinner just like us. case closed.
