The Five Solas, Pt 2: The Way the Main Theme is Understood

Pastor Aldo Leon - Various Scriptures
Reformed, More than a Word
Delivered on: 22 October 2017

To be reformed is to be about the bible as a story of God’s historic redemption in Christ which is advanced and understood by distinguishing covenants (grace and works or law and gospel). This covenantal story is about three actors working together who are Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The five solas are categories which enable this covenantal, trinitarian story of salvation to be rightly understood and preserved. The first two essential pieces to these solas which promote and protect the gospel are soli deo gloria (God’s glory alone) and sola gratia (grace alone). However, where does grace alone take us? How is it that this unconditional redemptive favor come to us? It is here where the doctrine of Christ alone comes. To say grace alone demands that we say only Christ and not Christ and anything or anyone else. (Various Scriptures)
