The doctrine of Solus Christus, or Christ alone, is the heartbeat of Reformation Theology. That is, Jesus Christ is the only path to salvation. In other words, you don’t need anyone else—like saints or priests, and you don’t need anything—like your good works. In today’s episode, Grant explains why and how Christ alone is the only path of salvation. He also introduces us to the Reformer, John Calvin, and what Calvin had to say on the subject of Christ alone.

Being spiritually "clean" is inseparable from being a true follower of Christ—a purity not earned by our own efforts but granted through our union with Him, the true Vine. This vital connection is made possible by the Word of God, which brings new life to those who believe. When God’s Word is spoken and received, it plants seeds of faith that grow within us. Just as a branch draws life from the Vine by being attached, we are spiritually sustained and nourished by remaining connected to Christ through the lasting strength and grace of His Word.

In today's episode, Grant delves deeper into the Apostle Paul's insights from Romans 5:1–8, exploring the beauty of salvation and the profound reality of suffering that accompanies every believer's journey in Christ. He emphasizes that suffering is not merely an obstacle but a divinely appointed opportunity for growth and sanctification. According to Paul, the trials and tribulations we face are orchestrated by God with a sovereign purpose: to mold us into the image of His Son and to demonstrate His glory through our lives. Grant highlights how these challenges, though often painful, are integral to our spiritual development and a testament to our faith in God's ultimate plan.
