The Solas of Salvation | Lord's Day Sermon | 24th March, 2024 | Kwaw Andam

“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9

The five solas of salvation, (or of the Reformation), which form the bedrock of our faith in Christ, include sola scriptura (Scripture alone), solus Christus (Christ alone), sola fide (faith alone), sola gratia (grace alone), and soli Deo gloria (glory to God alone). These concepts were gleaned from the biblical positions on the ramifications of salvation, being careful to thoroughly capture the very heart of God concerning how his salvation is dispensed to his people. In this sermon, Deacon Andam explained the biblical principles behind the solas as well as the implications of each of them to the one who has received the salvation of Christ. It is imperative that anyone who professes saving faith in Christ, has a working knowledge and understanding of the five solas so that their faith is predicated upon the true principles as clearly stated in the scriptures. A salvation that is true is a salvation that is rooted only on the five solas.
