New Categories
I’m going to start filing posts under a couple of new category systems, the five solas and the doctrines of grace. I don’t think all my posts will fit under these categories, but the empty categories will help me brainstorm new topics and I think these will serve as positive ways to organize my thoughts.
The Five Solas
The five solas are five principles that sum up the doctrines of the reformation. They are:
- Sola scriptura — scripture alone
- Solus Christus — Christ alone
- Sola gratia — grace alone
- Sola fide — faith alone
- Soli Deo gloria — glory to God alone
For more information, see the Wikipedia entry for five solas.
The Doctrines of Grace
The doctrines of grace are probably more popularly known as the five points of Calvinism. They are:
- Total depravity
- Unconditional election
- Limited atonement
- Irresistable grace
- Perseverance of the Saints
