5 Solas of the Reformation Mug

The five solas are five Latin phrases popularized during the Protestant Reformation that emphasized the distinctions between the early Reformers and the Roman Catholic Church.

Sola fide: “faith alone” 3. Sola gratia: “grace alone” 4. Solus Christus: “Christ alone” 5. Soli Deo gloria: “to the glory of God alone”
