Christ Alone
Scripture
And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under
heaven given among men by which we must be saved." - Acts 4:12

Solus Christus means “by Christ alone”, and in this short 3-word phrase we find a truth that makes Christianity distinct from any other religion. As Christians we believe that nothing and no one can save us from our sins but Jesus. No amount of prayers, good deeds, or “I’m sorry’s" will ever be enough. It is only by Jesus’ death on the cross that are our sins forgiven. And it is only by Jesus’ resurrection from the dead that we receive the gift of eternal life. Salvation is only “by Christ alone”. Does this encourage you? Because in all honesty it should. It is good news; the best news!
Jesus said in John 14:6, ““I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Are you looking for a way to get closer to God? It’s only through Jesus. Are you looking for truth in a world full of lies and deception? It’s only in Jesus. Are you looking for a fulfilling life that won’t leave you empty, and broken? It’s only by Jesus.
Jesus alone saves us from death and destruction and offers us new life and redemption. So is your salvation in Christ alone? If not, make today the day.
