Scholar and pastor Matthew Barrett retraces the historical and biblical roots of the doctrine that Scripture alone is the final and decisive Authority for God\'s people.
The Five Solas Series is more than a simple rehashing of these statements, but instead expounds upon the biblical reasoning behind them, leading to a more profound theological vision of our lives and callings as Christians and churches..
These five statements summarize much of What the Reformation was about, and they distinguish Protestantism from other expressions of the Christian faith: that they place ultimate and final Authority in the Scriptures, acknowledge the work of Christ alone as sufficient for redemption, recognize that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone, and seek to do all things for God\'s glory. --THE FIVE SOLAS-- Historians and theologians have long recognized that at the heart of the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation were five declarations, often referred to as the solas.
This book is an exploration of the past in order to better understand our present and the importance of reviving this indispensable doctrine for the Christian faith and church today.
Shows that we need to recover a robust doctrine of Scripture\'s Authority in the face of today\'s challenges and why a solid doctrinal foundation built on God\'s Word is the best hope for the future of the church.
Surveys the development of this theme in the Reformation and traces the crisis that followed resulting in a shift away from the Authority of Scripture.
Revitalizing one of the five great declarations of the Reformation-- sola Scriptura -- Barrett: Analyzes What the idea of sola Scriptura is and What it entails, clarifying why the doctrine is truth and why it\'s so essential to Christianity .
God\'s Word Alone is a decisive defense of the Bible as the inspired and inerrant Word of God.
