Faith alone, Grace alone, Scripture alone.


Which of the three alones is the one that I alone need, or is it pick any one of the three?

Which of the 3 simultaneous "Popes" was the infallible one in the year 1410? They all condemned each other as well.

Maybe it was a tribute to the trinity? :)

I think your private interpretation of the phrase is wrong in that Farmer was not asking anyone to pick just one.

Maybe he can explain. My 2 cents are Salvation is by Grace alone, thru Faith alone, in Christ alone.

BTW: How did they know which of the 3 popes was the infallible one?

They’re tied together.

God’s Word through Scripture teaches us that by His Grace we are saved through Faith in Him.

Ephesians 2:1-10 sums it up.

If one could separate the Father from the Son, and both from the Holy Spirit, then one would know which 'alone' to rely upon.

The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.
