The Jewel and the Safe
11/8/2026Sola Scriptura Case Studies
What must a person do in order to be saved? In this first Sola Scriptura case study, we define and defend two pillars of the Reformation. From 2 Timothy 3:16-17, we see the safe: Scripture is our only ultimate authority for faith and practice, able to perfect the Christian. From Ephesians 2:8-10, we see the jewel it protects: justification by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, apart from works — and how to lovingly help those trapped in teachings that add works to the Gospel.

The Importance of the Local Church
5/3/2026Could AI replace the local church? Far from it — God designed His people to grow together under shepherding leaders, mutual encouragement, and loving accountability. From 1 Thessalonians 5, we see three reasons believers will always need the local church: God-appointed leaders who shepherd our souls, brothers and sisters who remind us of the truth, and a community that walks with us through repentance and restoration.
