Grace is the heart of the Christian gospel. It's a doctrine that
touches the very depths of human existence and makes Christianity
such an essential alternative to the dissolution and nihilism of
modern culture. Grace Alone guides you into a better doctrinal
understanding of the issue and gives you a more glorious vision of
an active and saving God. The language of grace fills the Bible so
much that to say "grace alone" may not evoke much reflection.
Unlike "faith alone," there's no theological controversy among
expressions of Christianity. Reviving one of the five great
declarations of the Reformation (and one of the more
overlooked)-sola Gratia-professor and church historian Carl
Trueman: Provides a thorough definition of grace as it's found in
the Bible and an overview of biblical references to, and teaching
on, grace. Tracks the doctrine of grace as it's been articulated
throughout church history, with discussions of Augustine, Pelagius,
Thomas Aquinas, and ending with the Reformation and theologies of
Luther and Calvin. Looks at the relationship between the means of
grace and the modern church, defining the practical implications of
the Reformation's understanding of grace. Explanations throughout
on the relationship of grace to sin, salvation and glorification,
God's sovereignty, the sacraments, and the controversies regarding
freewill and predestination. Grace Alone is a beautiful and
much-needed revival of this foundational doctrine and the assurance
of salvation. -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." 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 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.
