About Solus Christus

The History Behind Our Name: The Five Reformation Solas

Solus Christus is Latin for “Christ alone”.

This phrase is part of the five solas that came out of the protestant Reformation, the heart of Reformation theology. The five solas are:

  • Theology comes from scripture alone.

  • We are saved by faith alone, the receival of Jesus’ saving works.

  • We are saved by grace alone, grace given to us through Christ.

  • All of life is for the glory of God alone.

The Reformation was about Jesus Christ’s death as the only source of our forgiveness, life, and salvation. That is to say, we are saved by Christ alone (solus Christus).

Solus Christus serves as our name to be a constant reminder that everything we do goes back to Christ alone, the one who holds it all together.
