Sola Gratia

Acts 1:8

⁸But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

‍

Five Solas of the Reformation

Sola Gratia (grace alone)

Solus Christus (Christ alone)

Sola fide (faith alone)

Soli Deo Gloria (to the glory of God alone)

Sola Scriptura (Scripture alone)

‍

Scripture alone is the final authority.

Salvation is granted by grace alone through faith alone for the glory of God alone.

‍

Romans 1:16-17

¹⁶For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. ¹⁷For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

‍

1 Corinthians 15:1-5

¹Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, ²and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. ³For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, ⁴that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, ⁵and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.

‍

Romans 1:16-17
