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.

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.

Why Jesus Christ had to die?

Many Christians have different views on why Christ had to die. For some, He died for their sins. But for others, He died to redeem them from their sins. Still, some believe He died as an atonement for the whole world and the resurrection of saints. Here, we will explore why Jesus doesn’t have to die for any of those but eternal life.

Importance of the Words of Jesus

Today we have a form of Christainity which claims to believe in Jesus Christ but reject everything He said to do as ‘works’ and not required for salvation.
