This Reformation Weekend, let's reflect on the profound power of the Cross and the salvation secured in Christ alone .
"For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." 1 Corinthians 1:18
The doctrine of solus Christus was highlighted during the Reformation as the Reformers identified the problem of a church that was casting shade on Christ; of a church that was arrogating to itself prerogatives that belong to Christ alone.
The Reformers clearly identified this problem and brought a biblical and theological solution that provides application for our own day.
This problem impressed upon the Reformers the need to purge anything that would throw shade upon the absolute brilliance of Christ’s supremacy in our salvation.
Is this still a temptation for the church today? It certainly is.
Solus Christus was needed in the sixteenth century and is needed in the twenty-first century in order to impress upon us the fact that our relationship with God can be mediated by none other than Christ alone.

In the 16th century, a religious revolution took place in the Western Church. This is known as the “Protestant Reformation.” This event led to the formation of Protestantism within Christianity. Though the Reformation happened in Europe hundreds of years ago, we still feel its effects in 21st century Singapore.
Through the years, 3 nights in October are set aside for the “Reformation Lectures.” These lectures allowed Christians in Singapore and the region to deepen their historical knowledge and strengthen their relationship with the Lord Jesus.
This year, we are organising a 2 part talk by Dr. Justin Joon Lee from Singapore Bible College on the theme: In Christ Alone. We hope that this will serve as a reminder that the foundation of salvation, is in Christ alone.
All who are interested in applying the lesson of the Reformation for the modern Church.
