Description:
"He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities." - Isaiah 53:11

The central difference between biblical and non-biblical views of salvation is that the former believes Jesus Christ is sufficient to save to the uttermost but the later believes that while Jesus is necessary, he is not sufficient. To clarify what I mean, both Roman Catholics and other synergists, would rightly anathematize anyone who claims one can be saved without the grace of God. But this was never what the debate was about. The Reformers never claimed Rome believed you can be saved apart from grace. The debate of the Reformation was never ever about the necessity of grace, it was always about the sufficiency of grace. This is the essence of the difference between synergists and those who affirm that justification is by Christ ALONE. There is nothing more essential to our position and this is what sets it apart from other all other types of theology. What we mean by the word "sufficient" is that Jesus Christ meets all the conditions for us that are necessary for our salvation. It further means what Jesus does for us on the cross meets all of God's requirements for us, including giving us a new heart to believe and obey (Ezekiel 36:26). In other words, we believe the Bible plainly teaches that, apart from grace, sinners are unable to obey the gospel, any more than the law, without Christ implanting a new heart in us. The old one will not do. What Jesus did for us in his life, death and resurrection is not only necessary, but completely sufficient to save us. This was the point of the Reformation's affirmation of the principle of Solus Christus, or Christ alone. God's love for His own is unconditional so He makes sure the job gets done.
