Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He serves as our prophet, priest, and King. While these are all things that Christ is in His nature, the work of Christ reveals His identity. Thus, we must look at the work of Christ to understand who He is and His purpose in coming. While the miracles, signs, and teachings of Christ are of supreme importance, the work of Jesus Christ on the cross remains the masterpiece of Jesus’ work. It is fair to say Jesus understood His mission long before He arrived as the God made flesh. Furthermore, we know the mental anguish that Christ endured in the events leading up to the cross. Jesus’ self sacrifice on the cross served as the payment for the sins of mankind as our penal substitution displaying the nature of Christ as fully God and fully man. Furthermore, Christ and Christ alone the all sufficient sacrifice as our perfect Prophet, Priest, and King.

The core of Solus Christus states that Jesus Christ and only Jesus Christ is sufficient for salvation by His sacrificial work on the cross and His nature as the God made flesh. Mankind, from the fall in Genesis 3 and the introduction of sin into the world Jesus, inherently resides in a state of sinfulness. No one can be declared innocent from their own works or striving and all stand in eternal spiritual guilt.

The Christian should view themselves as a theologian and biblical authority simply because, as Christians, we represent God Almighty to the world, whether we do so rightly or falsely. Therefore, we should delve deeply into the word of God as those called to reach the people in our home, our community, and the world. As we worship the Lord in spirit and truth, we cannot forget to carry the truth as a torch that guides our path. Studying the truth of God’s word brings the head and heart into alignment with one another in full worship and devotion to God. We need depth of thought, the richness of solid theology, and the profound impact that comes from a greater understanding of the knowledge of God hand throughout creation.
