If our theology isn’t informed by God’s actual words, it will be formed by something else entirely. When scripture is not upheld as the objective authority, we shift toward subjectivism where people, through experiences, and blends of world religions will put themselves in authority.
The word that really matters is Sola. Whether discussing faith, grace, Christ, Scripture or the Glory of God it is this idea of “alone” which carries the most weight in this discussion. In terms of the Reformation Sola Gratia is very different than Gratia.
Christians can argue theology all day long in theory, but what we believe about justification has consequences in real life. It plays out either in faith that rests in Jesus’s righteousness credited to our account, or destructive self-righteous legalism.
