The Five Solas of the Reformation

#2 - Sola Fide

 

We Are Saved By Faith Alone, But Not by a Faith that is alone 

 

  1. Faith Is Not Enough

               Rome said:  Faith + Works = Justification

               The Roman def of Faith not enough

                

Faith needs help – WORKS

 

               James 2:24  

              

Is our model Rome’s Abraham or Hosea’s  Gomer

 

               Hosea 1:1 & 3

 

  1. Faith Is Enough

 

               Luther ‘s reading of  Romans 1:17 before the Tower

 

               Luther Answer to Rome – Faith = Justification + Works

                              Gal 2:16 &  3:10-11

 Our cry as Reformation Christians 

 

Galatians 2:20   I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
