In his sermon “Sola Fide – Faith Alone,” Aidan Sims teaches that righteousness before God is not achieved by works but is declared by God through faith in Jesus Christ. Drawing from Romans 3:22–28, he emphasizes that all people have sinned and are justified freely by God’s grace through Christ’s redemptive work. Faith, a gift from God, unites believers to Christ and His finished work, making them righteous in God’s courtroom—an imputed, not earned, righteousness. Sims contrasts this biblical view with the Roman Catholic idea of infused righteousness and situates sola fide within the broader Reformation recovery of the gospel. God’s declaration is final and transformative: believers live in obedience not to earn righteousness but to grow into the reality of what God has already declared true of them—saved by grace through faith alone.
