Christ Refuting 3/5 Solas of Protestantism

The Five Solas emerged during the Protestant Reformation as a summary of key theological differences between Reformers and the Roman Catholic Church. It emphasized salvation by grace alone (sola gratia), through faith alone (sola fide), based on Scripture alone (sola scriptura), in Christ alone (solus Christus), and for the glory of God alone (soli Deo gloria). These principles became foundational to Protestant theology and identity. In this post, we will explore how three out of Five Solas can be refuted just by using the words of Jesus Christ and identify the two “Solas” which supersedes everything else, that is Jesus Christ and Glory to God alone. Everything else flows from these two solas.

A Theological Critique of TULIP

Let’s explore verses often quoted by Calvinists from Words of Jesus Christ and God the Father to justify TULIP, and investigate how they error in every one of them. Please note these posts does not include any counter-verses elsewhere from words of Jesus but just taking the very verses quoted for Calvinism and disproving how they err using the same context in that verse.

Substitutionary and Penal Substitutionary Atonement

When we say Christ died for our sins, many believe it is through Penal Substitutionary Atonement. It teaches that Jesus took the punishment that humans deserve for sin, in their place, so they can be forgiven and reconciled to God. What many don’t realise is that, the law, the prophets and God Himself is against Penal Substitutionary Atonement. In this post, we will explore why Penal Substitutionary Atonement is only for Israel and only Substitutionary Atonement applies for Gentiles or for all mankind in general.

False Doctrine on Total Depravity

Total depravity is a Protestant theological doctrine derived from the concept of original sin. It teaches that, as a consequence of the Fall, every person born into the world is enslaved to the service of sin as a result of their fallen nature and, apart from the efficacious (irresistible) or prevenient (enabling) grace of God, is completely unable to choose by themselves to follow God, refrain from evil, or accept salvation. In this post, we will explore why this doctrine of total depravity is false.
