Scholar and pastor Matthew Barrett retraces the historical and
biblical roots of the doctrine that Scripture alone is the final
and decisive authority for God's people. God's Word Alone is a
decisive defense of the Bible as the inspired and inerrant Word of
God. Revitalizing one of the five great declarations of the
Reformation-sola Scriptura-Barrett: Analyzes what the idea of sola
Scriptura is and what it entails, clarifying why the doctrine is
truth and why it's so essential to Christianity. Surveys the
development of this theme in the Reformation and traces the crisis
that followed resulting in a shift away from the authority of
Scripture. Shows that we need to recover a robust doctrine of
Scripture's authority in the face of today's challenges and why a
solid doctrinal foundation built on God's Word is the best hope for
the future of the church. This book is an exploration of the past
in order to better understand our present and the importance of
reviving this indispensable doctrine for the Christian faith and
church today. -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.
