Historians and theologians have long recognized that at the heart of the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation were five declarations, often referred to as the 'solas' sola scriptura, solus Christus, sola gratia, sola fide, and soli Deo gloria.

"Behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations." Genesis 17:4
