The “Law” simply identified and exposed sin (Rom. 7:7). The Law could never make one righteous or produce the good fruits of righteousness. The Laws of God on Stone have no life to give. The Law was meant to frustrate and push convicted, humbled, sincere people to find Salvation by another means… by faith in the Cross-work of Jesus Christ.

The ‘Five Solas’ vs. Man’s Religion

Five Foundational Doctrines of the Christian Faith

as recovered by the 15-16^th Century’s Protestant Reformers

Part 1 – The “Five Solas”

The Apostle Paul wrote to Timothy, many centuries ago:

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Tim. 3: 16).

The Apostle referred, of course, to the sacred Scriptures, also called The Bible and The Word of God. All of it, he says, is “God-breathed and profitable,” to “teach,” to “reprove,” to “correct” and to “instruct” the believers of “the church, which is His body.”

“SOLAS CHRISTUS” is Latin for “CHRIST ALONE”

The Protestant Reformer's "Five Solas" that we will delve into in this study were derived mainly from Paul's thirteen epistles to "the body of Christ." Paul warns us that we should stand for the pure, unadulterated, word of God and His 100% pure grace gospel, studied in context and "rightly divided" (2Tim 2:15).
