today, of celebration, because it's always special when we get to celebrate baptisms. And today we're going to celebrate what God is doing in the lives of people here at TAB Church. And so here at TAB, we believe that baptism is a step of obedience that we take in our walk with Christ, that baptism is an outward experience. It's an expression of what Christ has done inwardly in revealing himself and [00:25:36] (31 seconds)


Well, my first job that I ever had, maybe you can do the same thing right now, kind of think back to your first, you know, like, not at the grocery store or, you know, high school job, but like, your first, like, real adult job that you ever had. My first real adult job that I ever had was a furniture salesman, and I, it was a great opportunity, I ended up kind of managing this furniture store for a while, but I was like 24, 25, I was like very ripe behind the ears, you know, and the furniture store that I worked at was, it was kind of a high -end custom furniture store, so I specialized in a certain, you know, clientele, which was typically, like, mature ladies with means, you know, that was kind of my, my bread and butter as, as customers, and I had a customer that came in quite, quite regularly, I knew her, you know, fairly well, and she came in one day, and she had drastically changed her haircut, you know, had, like, totally changed her haircut, and I thought the haircut was good, like, I thought, I really did, I thought the haircut was, was cool, you know, I was like 24 or 25, I was trying to think of the right words to, to say, we had this big, like, lake close to our, our town, so it, it kind of made sense, but I looked at her, and I said, wow, you look like you've been on the lake all day, and what I meant by, I didn't, after I said it, I was like, maybe I could have said that differently, what I meant by that is, like, she looked refreshed, you know, she looked spontaneous, but she, she took it to the next level, and I mean, like, in disarray, right, and, like, unkept, so she looks at me, and she said, I didn't ask you for your opinion, and she walked out, I tried to call a couple times, you know, I tried to apologize, but I never sold the lady another piece of furniture again, so sad, right, you can probably think of a situation in your life, too, right, like, anytime we communicate, we kind of run the risk of being misunderstood, has anybody ever been misunderstood in your life, right, we can all, we can all relate to that, to that feeling, and why I begin with that story today is that over the next several weeks, we're going to be looking at this amazing letter in the New Testament that was written by a guy named James, and we're going to be looking at the letter of James over the next several weeks, and I wanted us to start kind of in a different spot, because I think we need to have some context of the letter of James, we need to understand where James is coming from before we just dive headlong into this book, because the, the book of James, or in its original form, right, it was a letter that James wrote, it's one of the most misunderstood letters or books in all of the, the New Testament, one theologian said, you know, it's kind of like the letter to James, if, if it was in modern terms, it would probably have ended up in our spam, spam folders, right, because there's so much in the, in this letter of James that's, like, super practical, and it's amazing, and it's an amazing book, but in some ways, it kind of rubs against the grain of some of the, the other New Testament books, it kind of creates this tension of faith, and works that we're gonna, we're gonna look at over the next several, several weeks, and so what I want to encourage us to do as we, as we go into this, this book, that talks about how our actions, the way that we portray and express our beliefs, and our faith, and our relationship with Jesus Christ, that it is actually a very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very important thing for us to consider, that a cheapened view of our salvation is not the path that we want to go down, and there is a tension in this, in this book, you know, James is gonna have some really straightforward words for us, he's gonna call us to this actionable, this actionable faith, and it's not to discount that we are, we are saved by the grace of God, works, right, our behaviors, our, our set of morals, or all these things that are important, those are not, that adherence to those things, or our inability to adhere to those things, has no bearing on us entering into a relationship with Jesus Christ, we're not adhering to those things, we're not adhering to those things, we're not adhering to those things, we are saved by the grace of God, but James is gonna make us kind of pause a little bit, and he's gonna make us think a little bit, that if we profess to have this vibrant living faith, we profess to have this relationship with Jesus Christ, it's almost like a, a fire that is in our, our gut, and in our, our belly, and this fire, can't help but produce fruit, and produce heat in our life, and he's gonna challenge us to say, well, if there's, if there's no heat that's coming off of our, of our life, we need to pause, and we need to think, and we need to pray, and we need to consider our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, so as we look into this, this book, I want to just give us a little bit of background today on, on James, who this guy is, perhaps why he, he wrote under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, this letter that he, that he wrote, and why it is important that we don't just come into it from a, from a, a defensive, maybe, standpoint of, of saying, well, no, no, we are, we are saved by the grace of God, right, and we're, and we elevate that part of our relationship, which obviously we should, none of us would be here, this is a grace party that we're a part of, and no, by the way, we continue on in our Christian life by the grace of God, but our actions, the works that are produced from our, our life, they actually matter, and so, I don't want to bore you today, right, you guys know I like history, and, and all of those things, but the Western church, and particularly, like, we are products of the Reformation, and the Reformation, just kind of, maybe, is that, I think everybody maybe has heard of the Reformation, but the 16th century, that, like, drastically changed the course of, of the big C church, when, you know, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, if you're here today, and, and maybe, I know we all come from different backgrounds, but we are largely Protestant evangelical, right, nod your head a little bit, am I, am I, are you, are you tracking with me, Protestant even, and I, and I know those, like, you know, these words can be a little bit loaded today, okay, but as Protestant evangelicals, like, we are here today, and we do church in many ways, because of what happened in the Reformation, this guy named Martin Luther in the 16th century, he, you know, he kind of, he messed up, right, he started reading his Bible, so I'm telling you, you know, if you, if you really, Eddie said last week, you know, Jesus, mess up our lives this year, if you want your life to be messed up, just start reading the Bible every day, you know, because God will start to just put things in your, in your heart, and speak, and so that happened to Martin Luther, and he, like, looked at the way that church was being done, and he was like, oh boy, something is, like, way, way off here, and, you know, by and large, the, the, the Catholic church in the 16th century, it was a very works -based kind of a thing, and Martin Luther was like, man, this is not, this is not good, and there's a point to this, all right, we're getting to James, okay, and so Martin Luther, basically, when he, you know, when he saw the things that were happening, and he nailed his 95 theses to the, to the door, he was doing that in response to this deviation of what had, had happened, away from what we call orthodoxy, and ortho is a, two Greek words, ortho meaning straight, like, if you go to the orthodontist, [00:46:09] (0 seconds)


ortho, right, and then doctrine meaning thinking, so this word orthodox, like, right, thinking, straight, on the straight path, that's why we say around TAB, we bend to the book, because we want to be people of the word, because the more we know the word of God, and the more we organize, and the more that we base our life off the word of God, it keeps us on the straight path, when we deviate from that, we find ourself off that, that path, and so Martin Luther was looking at this situation, and he was like, this is not right, we don't have the ability to enter into a relationship with God, because we're good enough people, this isn't right, and he probably messed up, and read Ephesians, look, look at this right here in Ephesians 2, 4 through 10, it's pretty straightforward, it says, but God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love that he had for us, made, listen to these amazing words, made us alive with Christ, even though we were dead, dead, like, dead is dead, you can't be halfway dead, you're either dead, or you're alive, right, we were dead in our lives, right, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so,
