The Five Solas: The Deliberately Protestant Church

by A. Blake White

When one monk nailed his challenges to the door of the Catholic Church, he had no idea that it would open a crack leading all the way down to the very foundation of medieval theology. He started out only to reform papal errors, but ended up sparking a wholesale return to the biblical gospel, grace, and the Word of Jesus Christ. 'Protestant', a term first used against the followers of this renegade monk by his opponents, was eventually embraced as a rallying cry for participants in the Reformation. This book by A. Blake White will walk you through the five foundational beliefs of those who fought alongside Martin Luther for the purity of the Christian faith. The need for Christians to uphold these truths is as strong today as it was in the 16th century.

This short book is a nice introduction to what Luther highlights in his life and what he accomplished that sparked the Reformation to take place. The author also highlights the 5 Solas and gives a biblical and apologetic defense for why Protestants hold to these beautiful truths. The author leaves the book off with an exhortation to say the reformation is far from over, we as a church are always reforming and always growing. This is a nice Reformation read!

Great book! Blake reminds us of the key distinctions of Protestantism and challenges us to keep turning them over in our minds so that we might not fall into our default positions of adding to these "alones."
