Is it time to consider the Reformation to be a 500-year experiment gone wrong?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWorld-renowned evangelical theologian Kevin Vanhoozer thinks not. While he sees recent critiques as legitimate, he argues that retrieving the Reformation's core principles offers an answer to critics of Protestant biblical interpretation. Vanhoozer explores how a proper reappropriation of the five \u003ci\u003esolas--sola gratia \u003c\/i\u003e(grace alone),\u003ci\u003e sola fide \u003c\/i\u003e(faith alone),\u003ci\u003e sola scriptura \u003c\/i\u003e(Scripture alone),\u003ci\u003e solus Christus\u003c\/i\u003e (in Christ alone), and \u003ci\u003esola Deo gloria \u003c\/i\u003e(for the glory of God alone)\u003ci\u003e--\u003c\/i\u003eoffers the tools to constrain biblical interpretation and establish interpretive authority. He offers a positive assessment of the Reformation, showing how a retrieval of \"mere Protestant Christianity\" has the potential to reform contemporary Christian belief and practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis provocative response and statement from a top theologian is accessibly written for pastors and church leaders.","brand":"Baker Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47181703119088,"sku":"9781493405909","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781493405909_p0.jpg?v=1769895655","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781493405909","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
