2025晨鐘課－每天，都是新的起點 以歷史智慧滋養生活，點亮2025每一天！ 借鑑過去，活在當下，展望未來！ 粵語廣播網站 (時兆出版社授權錄製) https://soundcloud.com/mediahk Podcast@靈修廣播站 10月31日 單憑信心 因為上帝的義正在這福音上顯明出來；這義是本於信，以致於信。如經上所記：「義人必因信得生。」 羅馬書 1：17 假設今天是1517年10月31日，我們身在德國威登堡鎮。許多人正聚集在此；一方面期待著諸聖節（11月1日）的到來，另一方面希望有幸一睹薩克森選侯腓特烈的聖物收藏。根據羅倫培登（Roland H. Bainton）的書《這是我的立場：馬丁．路德傳記》的記載，他收藏的聖物包括聖徒的牙齒、聖母馬利亞的衣物碎片和四根頭髮、耶穌的十三塊繈褓布、馬槽中的一根稻草、耶穌的一根鬍鬚、最後的晚餐吃剩的一塊麵包、耶穌荊棘冠冕的一根刺和釘在祂手上的一枚釘子，甚至還有摩西所看到的燃燒荊棘叢中的一根枝子。「到了1520年，藏品的數量已達到19,013塊聖骨。瞻仰這些聖物……並按規定捐款的人，可以為自己或他人減少煉獄的時間，長達驚人的1,902,202年零270天。」 與此同時，約翰．特契爾（Johann Tetzel）一直在周邊地區出售贖罪券，讓人以為他們不再需要為自己的罪懺悔。馬丁．路德（Martin Luther）對此十分厭惡，於是起草了針對售賣贖罪券的《九十五條論綱》，他將它貼在威登堡教堂的大門上。其中第21條和第22條論綱的主要內容是：「贖罪券不能拯救任何人」，並且「死人也不能靠贖罪券得救」。第56至58條論綱更補充道，這些所謂的聖物並非基督的遺物，而是一種邪惡的觀念。 路德用拉丁語寫下了論綱，本以為會有一場學術辯論等著他。但有人很快將它翻譯成德語，後來又被譯成其他語言。結果，許多人開始質疑羅馬天主教關於聖徒功績、聖物和販賣贖罪券的教義。難怪世人會將1517年10月31日視為偉大之新教改革的肇始！ 當路德將他的《九十五條論綱》貼在威登堡教堂的門上時，他怎麼也不會想到這小小的舉動竟會產生如此深遠的影響；它點燃了宗教改革之火，這把火要在基督教界持續燃燒，直到世界的末了。

In this episode, Pastor Dan Smail and Vicar Wendy Farone share what makes Lutheranism distinctive! Discussions of these distinctions include a brief history, Luther's perspective that we are saved by grace through faith alone, and why we are called to "Sin Boldly" because we trust in God's grace, as well as other related topics. Bonus: A behind-the-scenes clip of our prerecording banter! Resources:Here I Stand: A Life of Martin Luther by Roland H. Bainton            The Reformation: A History by Diarmaid MacCulloch

The Pudcast and co-hosts return thanks to the news coming out of the Middle East and stories about American Protestants' understanding of Israel and Jews. Co-hosts ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Miles Smith⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Anglican), ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠D. G. Hart⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Presbyterian), and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Korey Maas⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Lutheran) talk about eschatology, Protestant familiarity with Israel (thanks at least to the Old Testament), the degree to which confessional Protestants (unlike American men who think about Rome) think about Jerusalem. Among the items mentioned during this session are: Roland H. Bainton and Menachem Begin, "Luther and the Jews in Light of his Lectures on Genesis: An Exchange of Letters," Lutheran Theological Journal 17 (1983) 131-34; the documentary, When Jews Were Funny; Gerald McDermott's case for Christian Zionism; Gardiner H. Shattuck's recent book, Christian Homeland, on American Episcopalians in the Middle East; and Miles Smith's article on anti-Semitism and American patriotism. No advertisements this time - our marketing division has lost key players. Listeners may follow two of the hosts @IVMiles and @oldlife. Korey Maas continues to avoid social media. (Many thanks to our Southern audio engineer who makes this pudcast possible.)

This week, we sat down with Professor Paul Lim, Associate Professor of the History of Christianity. Professor Lim is an award-winning historian of Reformation- and post-Reformation Europe. His latest book, Mystery Unveiled: The Crisis of the Trinity in Early Modern England (Oxford, 2012), won the 2013 Roland H. Bainton Prize as the best book in history/theology by the Sixteenth Century Society and Conference. He has published two other books in that area: The Cambridge Companion to Puritanism (Cambridge, 2008); and In Pursuit of Purity, Unity, and Liberty: Richard Baxter’s Puritan Ecclesiology in Context (Brill, 2004). In addition, history of evangelicalism and global Christianities are his other foci of research. Currently, he is writing a book on the transformation of global evangelical attitudes toward and endeavors on eradication of human trafficking and structural poverty. Professor Lim holds a B.A. from Yale University (1990), an M.Div. from the Biblical Theological Seminary (1995), a Th.M. from Princeton Theological Seminary (1997), and a Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge (2001). This is the final episode of The Carver Cast, Season 1. Please stay tuned for Season 2, anticipated in 2021! In the meantime, our team continues to engage with Christian faculty, and you can visit us at www.carverstl.org for updates and other resources. -- The Carver Cast engages with Christian faculty in higher education and highlights the work of those faculty to bridge connections between university, church, and society. In doing so, it seeks to disrupt the perceptions that Christians are “anti-intellectual” and that higher education is “anti-Christian.” Tune in for a wide-ranging discussion with faculty around the country, with mediocre production quality but excellent content! Penina Laker and John Inazu are Carver Project faculty fellows and members of the faculty at Washington University in St. Louis, where Laker is assistant professor of communication design and Inazu is a professor of law and religion.
