Actually, I didn't "blow it". I pushed you to solidly affirm the Solas. Which I will now use as a hook in your jaws and force you to bow before, Justification by Faith Alone.
Here it is short and sweet...
Faith alone (Sola Fide)
Justification is by grace alone through faith alone because of Christ alone. In justification Christ's righteousness is imputed to us as the only possible satisfaction of God's perfect justice. Our justification does not rest on any merit to be found in us, nor upon the grounds of an infusion of Christ's righteousness in us, nor that an institution claiming to be a church that denies or condemns sola fide can be recognized as a legitimate church.

Embrace Justification by Faith Alone, or abandon the Solas you so proudly affirmed as early as yesterday. The choice is yours.
But, I predict you will squirm and try to redefine Sola Fide to suit your own personal scorched earth fundamentalism.
