Professor of theology Stephen Wellum considers Christ's singular
uniqueness and significance biblically, historically, and today, in
our pluralistic and postmodern age. Christ Alone is a much-needed
study and defense of the doctrine that provides coherency to the
Christian faith. If the church is to proclaim the same Christ as
the Reformers, we must understand and embrace solos Christus with
the same clarity, conviction, urgency, and abundance of joy as the
Reformers. To that end, Wellum: Recovers the Reformers' basic
insights by focusing first on two teachings: the exclusive identity
of Christ and his sufficient work. Follows the historical roots of
the doctrine and its developments to show how the uniqueness of
Christ has come under specific attack today. Retraces the storyline
of Scripture, from Christ's unique identity and work as prophet,
priest, and king, to the application of his work to believers and
our covenantal union with him. Christ Alone seeks to recover a
robust biblical and theological doctrine of Christ's person and
work-and a renewed understanding that apart from Christ there is no
salvation-in the face of today's challenges, unpacking why a fresh
appraisal of the Reformation understanding of Christ alone is so
important 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.
