Scripture alone doesn't mean we literally never hear God anywhere else. It's the final authority for everything we believe.

Five Solae

What are the Five Solas, well lets state them.

Sola Fide (faith alone)

Sola Scriptura(scripture alone)

Sola gratia(Grace alone)

Solus christus(Christ alone)

Sola Deo Gloria(glory to God alone)

So what do these mean and why do they exist? Back before the reformation (Luther and his 95 theses) the church and its doctrines where governed by the Catholic Church and the Pope. so the Catholic church has the Bible but it also has its Canon Law and the some other non biblical doctrines Such as Purgatory and Indulgences.

These extra things came about because of the Pope being able to add to the Cannon Law and various other things without referring back to the bible.so when the Reformation came, a new set of founding principles had to be stated en-order to separate the Protestant movement from the Catholic movement, thus we have the Five Solas.

so these five points of principle state what we base our creed on in protestant world.

We are saved by faith alone and no amount of good works can save you without faith. 

Romans 1:16 NIV

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last,[e] just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”[f]

The Bible is the one source of Scripture we use and is the source of all our doctrine. 

2 Timothy 3:16 New International Version (NIV)

“16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness”

Grace alone is responsible for allowing you to choose god and salvation and it is not possible to choose with out grace due to our sinful nature, we are no long under the law.

John 1:17

“For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. “

Christ alone is the only way to god, praying to saints or Mary will not allow you to speak to god and serves no purpose.

John 14:6 New International Version (NIV)

“6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

God Alone is to be Glorified, no being dead or alive is to be set above God 

Revelation 15:4 New International Version (NIV)

4 Who will not fear you, Lord,    and bring glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come    and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed.”

Sola Fide (Faith Alone) - Pastor Patrick Hines Sermon / IMPROVED AUDIO!

Sola Fide (Faith Alone) �� Pastor Patrick Hines Sermon / IMPROVED AUDIO! 2 Corinthians 11:3 But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his trickery, your minds will be led astray from sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 4 For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you…

Do we really believe in Sola Scriptura?

I believe in Sola Scriptura. I stand on it theologically in everything. Sola Scriptura literally means Scripture alone, meaning that Scripture alone is our authority.

Why does Sola Scriptura matter to biblical womanhood? Because without the authority of Scripture, there is no case for biblical womanhood. No Titus 2: 3-5. No Proverbs 31 woman.  Without Sola Scriptura, we have nothing. I stand on Sola Scriptura. I stand on it theologically in everything. Sola Scriptura literally means Scripture alone, meaning that Scripture alone is our authority. I’m a Titus 2…

my lovely friend @gefionne was gracious enough to let me draw some fanart of fen'harel!solas for her amazing (AND VERY DELICIOUS) fanfic, these hands, if not gods! (au! solavellan, smutty, WITH PLOT.) 100/10, would recommend time & time again. read it or i'll beat up vhenan please enjoy the fen'harel tiddies

taash said "they were doing it" and people ran with the interpretation of an npc that doesn't know solas or the history of the elvhenan even when bellara interjected and said, no, that's not right. that's not how it was for the elvhenan. they formed bonds before they had physical bodies. and people ran to doompost or create weird anti-solavellan shit even though mythal & solas refer to each other as old friends and when she releases him there is no tenderness or love in it. it is the act of unchaining a dog from his post, the stepping down of a general. but to each their own ig.

[vaguely-concerned]

just for fun this time during 'sea of blood' I counted out all the venatori corpses I think we can be pretty sure were lucanis' handiwork before we show up (not including the ones he kills in his initial cutscene, and with an assumption that he's been at work mainly up and down in the areas we move through until we find him, not behind the locked door -- I think that's mostly the work of rampaging undead and other venatori-hoisted-by-their-own-petard suchlikes). can thus happily inform you lucanis has killed at least 32 venatori before rook and company get there. at least one of them he's impaled on their own weird crystal spike things the venatori mages cast as an AOE attack and that they're trying to keep him contained with when we find him. so he's clearly been keeping busy lol. that's my boy dispensing poetic justice and claiming some enrichment in his enclosure while he's at it good for him!

Inquisitor, finally reaching the rooftop: SOLAS WAI--Oh holy shit.

Rook: ...

Morrigan: ...

Inquisitor: we...oh this is rough. We...oh wow. We must know different Elven gods intent on tearing down the veil named Solas. I uh. I really should have shown you a portrait or something first, but it's not exactly a common name and just...yikes. This is so embarrassing. I'm gonna...I'm gonna go find mine. Again. So, *so* sorry. I'll just be needing uhm...just gonna take that *snatches Mythal fragment* but...thank you for finding it for me. And uh, good luck with this one!

Rook: I'm sorry what

Morrigan: Tis' unfortunate
