Grace is not something we cooperate with nor can it be earned. Grace is God's unmerited favour towards us on account of Jesus Christ.By grace alone-alone- makes the difference in the Romanist's view and the Reformation teaching.

We begin our series on the five Solas with where the other four will have their basis, Scripture alone. All truth necessary for our salvation and for our spiritual life is taught in Scripture explicitly or by implied understanding. The contrast between Roman Catholicism and the biblical-historical understanding of authority and foundation of the church is spelled out.

Paul anticipates the charge that God is cruel. In this we deal with straw man arguments, common grace, human responsibility, and the pride of man.

Is God unfair- Unjust- The apostle, anticipating objections and assertions, responds from two areas, the great authority-the word of God and then he points to the very nature of God.
