Cries of the Protestant Reformation: Solus Christus

The fourth cry of the protestant reformation is solus Christus which is a Latin phrase meaning “in Christ alone.”   Our salvation is in Christ alone.  Jesus was not merely a good teacher, a philosopher, or a healer.  He was God.  John 1 speaks of Jesus Christ as the creator who became flesh and dwelt among us.  Jesus was and is God.  He is a God that not only came to the earth but who died on a cross to give us victory over sin and death.  He is a Lord and Savior that can be trusted.  The Christians of the reformation were calling people to place their faith in Christ alone!
