This may not be as good of an idea as it seems in my head, but here is my idea: Read the Five Solas and post back verses to support each Sola. Simple enough, but I think everyone would have a different take on each one. So here they are:
Sola Scriptura - Scripture alone - The Bible is the only inspired and authoritative Word of God and is accessible to all (that is, perspicuous and self-interpreting). Basically The Bible is the inspired , inerrant, infallible Word of God, and can be interpreted with only The Bible ( no external source needed).
Sola Fide - Faith alone - Pretty much that we are saved by faith alone, no works can save us.
Sola Gratia - Grace alone - Salvation comes by grace only, not through any merit on the part of the sinner. Thus salvation is an unearned gift.
Solus Christus - Christ alone - Salvation is possible through only Christ, our mediator between us and God.
Soli Deo Gloria - Glory to God alone - All the glory is due to God alone, since he did all the work — not only the atonement on the Cross, but even granting the faith which allows men to be saved by that atonement.
Well there they are, with credit due to http://www.theopedia.com/Five_Solas for the concise explanations. So what do you have on that?
