    I. The three “alones” of Reformation theology is Faith alone, Scripture alone, and Grace alone. Salvation is a gift given to humans by God’s grace, and through faith alone we receive this gift of salvation. If we erroneously believe that our own actions, such as going to church and obeying the Ten Commandments, play a role in achieving salvation, then salvation would no longer be a gift from God but rather a sort of human accomplishment. In order to be given the gift of salvation, we simply need to receive it rather than pursue it by our own actions. By faith alone, we are forgiven; there is no additional “requirement” of us to do something in order to earn this salvation. We know that God is favorable to us by trusting in the promises of God, which are dictated in Scripture. So, through faith we trust in Scripture, and in Scripture we see God’s promise of salvation to all that believe. Finally, through God’s grace alone we are forgiven and saved because God’s promise of salvation is made by grace. God’s grace is…

    Since the fall of mankind and the introduction of sin into the world, humanity has attempted to find their salvation through their own laws and customs which they equate with the commandments of God. This is the same defense used against the papists in his sermons under Henry. Cranmer instructs in this homily that God calls people to put His commandments above all other laws, viewing human laws in the context of bringing people under God’s laws. “Of Good Works” concludes with an exhortation to have faith in God and obey the…

    It is the gift of the Holy Spirit. Every believer is a “called out one”. Each calling of the Holy Spirit accompanies the privilege of receiving a gift pack of divine enablements, vital one being the gift of faith enabling the believer to do the work of ministry. The third one is, the sociological faith: This is the perfecting faith. It is the fruit of the Holy Spirit. It is the result of the transforming and renewing ministry of the Holy Spirit in each Christian’s life. As result the Christian produces the nano(9)-flavored fruit of the Spirit growing and maturing into a suitable, edifying and productive member of the society of believers in Christ. Christian Theology, also, as it developed during the various stages of church history further articulated the nature of Christian faith. A careful understanding and interpretation of the concept of faith found in the whole of the Holy Scriptures by the Church through out its history added more clearer and theological understanding of faith. The dogmatic theology defined faith as “fides”, the firm persuasion of the truth of God’s revelation or truth itself considered as the object of belief. Faith is construed as subjective and objective in nature. The subjective faith is named “fides qua creditor,” the faith by which it is believed i.e. the faith of the believer that receives and holds the revelation of God. The objective faith is named “fides quae creditor,” the faith which is believed, i.e. the content of…

    According to Weber, the Catholic church gave people assurance of salvation. After the Reformation, however, that security was lost for many people. Out of confusion, many people began looking for other "signs" that they had salvation. Money quickly became one such "sign." Hence, the Protestant reformation, and therefore, Protestantism itself, began an inextricable relationship with the earning of money. The best economic system of earning money is certainly Capitalism. Therefore, according to Weber, Protestantism became married to…

    Christian faith has appeared to many an easy thing; nay, not a few even reckon it among the social virtues, as it were; and this they do because they have not made proof of it experimentally, and have never tasted of what efficacy it is. For it is not possible for any man to write well about it, or to understand well what is rightly written, who has not at some time tasted of its spirit, under the pressure of tribulation; while he who has tasted of it, even to a very small extent, can never write, speak, think, or hear about it sufficiently. For it is a living fountain, springing up unto eternal life, as…
