Renowned biblical scholar Thomas Schreiner looks at the historical
and biblical roots of the doctrine of justification and offers an
updated defense of this pillar of Reformed theology. Reinvigorating
one of the five great declarations of the Reformation-sola
fide-Schreiner: Summarizes the history of the doctrine, looking at
the early church and the writings of several of the Reformers.
Walks readers through an examination of the key biblical texts in
the Old and New Testament that support the Reformed understanding
of justification. Discusses whether justification is transformative
or forensic and introduces readers to some of the contemporary
challenges to the Reformation teaching of sola fide, with
particular attention to the new perspective on Paul. Five hundred
years after the Reformation, the doctrine of justification by faith
alone still needs to be understood and proclaimed. In Faith Alone
you will learn how the rallying cry of "sola fide" is rooted in the
Scriptures and how to understand this doctrine in a fresh way. -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.
