Sola Fide and Sola Scriptura

Can Luther’s “Solas” stand up to theological scrutiny? Theologian and former evangelical minister Douglas Beaumont explores what is true and what is false in these Protestant traditions.

Questions Covered:

  • 19:30 - What specific theological issue made you realize that sola scriptura was untenable?
  • 31:50 - I’m Protestant, and I’ve heard that Catholics can believe in sola fide, so what’s the difference between the two views?
  • 37:50 - I was just speaking with a Baptist and he said, “Once saved, always saved,” and I’m wondering where that is in the Bible?
  • 45:05 - With sola scriptura, if the Bible is not the only approved document, how do we know what is?
  • 50:40 - I keep running around in circles with Protestants who argue sola fide and sola scriptura. I am looking for reading resources for myself and my protestant friends who cannot seem to understand what I am telling them.
