Contributed by Michael Tkachuk on Oct 11, 2020

Solus Christus - Salvation Through Christ Alone Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 17, 2017

Solus Christus is one of the five basic doctrines re-captured after the Reformation. Jesus, the Christ, so saturates the NT that anyone reading through the Bible would be amazed to find that people would think salvation could be found in anyone else!

A couple of weeks ago we took a look at the five “Solas” that were established after the Protestant Reformation came along in 1517.
