Sola scriptura – Word alone – reminds us that it is God’s living Word, Jesus Christ who continues to recreate and reform us into his body, the church. Sola fide – Faith alone – reminds us that it is by faith and not works that we are justified. Sola gratia – Grace alone – reminds us that freedom from sin and new life begins as the free gift of God’s grace through the cross and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Trusting in the freedom given to us in Holy Baptism, we pray for the church, that all Christians will unite more fully in worship and mission for the sake of this world God so loves.
