I received theological education through Luther Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota, which is the largest seminary out of 8 ELCA seminaries. Luckily, I could listen to lectures or discourses not only from Lutheran theologians or Bible scholars, but also from many other denomination scholars.
\nOne day, I was listening to a lecture spoken by a guest scholar of Old Testament from Methodist. He started with the words something like this, \u201cMartin Luther said \u201cScripture Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone\u201d but it did not make sense to me at all at first, because if alone, why three?\u201d Since some of you became members of Resurrection Lutheran very recently, you might have the same kind of question. Or for some of you, \u201cScripture Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone\u201d was the first time to hear it\u2026.
\n\u201cScripture Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone\u201d is a kind of trade mark for Lutheran Church. For those of you who are Lutherans for many years, how do you answer to the question by the Methodist scholar? Today, it is the Reformation Sunday. Why don\u2019t we think about this question a little bit deeper? <\/p>\n

In the Gospel text today, Bartimaeus, who was a blind person, came closer to Jesus shouting twice, \u201cHave mercy on me.\u201d When Jesus thought about Bartimaeus, I believe, he felt strong compassion. Because, at that time, it was normal that if someone has issues like blindness, or any type of disease, it was thought that that person did something wrong or did sin. Or his or her ancestors did sin that was why those people need to deserve God\u2019s punishment.
\nHowever, what the Bible teaches is that all human beings are not perfect and sinners as Adam and Eve became sinners. If I say I am not a sinner to God but you are, what I say itself is sin. Probably Jesus was not comfortable at all to the society.
\nJesus understood deeply how Bartimaeus was feeling about. Therefore, instead of letting people shouting back to him and making him quiet, Jesus asked one of his servants to bring him. <\/p>\n

Then today\u2019s story describes that a miracle happened, Bartimaeus could see after he met with Jesus. He said to him, \u201cGo; your faith has made you well.\u201d What does \u201cyour faith mean\u201d? It is very different from what Peter said to Jesus a few chapters before, \u201cYou are the Messiah!\u201d It is very different from an intellectual understanding Jesus as Messiah, for Bartimaeus did not call him \u201cMessiah!\u201d Rather, he trusted that only Jesus could do something for him. He bet his life to Jesus and leaned him 100 present. I would say, his faith was appeared in his desperate behavior rather than his words.
\nThen, even though Jesus said \u201cGo\u201d to Bartimaeus, he did not leave Jesus and his disciples, but \u201cfollowed him on the way.\u201d <\/p>\n

The faith to follow Jesus may be possible because of Jesus unconditional compassion, as it were, by God\u2019s grace alone. By grace alone, people may be able to follow Jesus, the faith in Christ.
\nThen, if we think about why we can sense grace, I believe scripture alone bring us God\u2019s grace, his Love and mercy. Of course, for some people, they may sense God\u2019s grace from his or her daily incidents. However, those feelings may be appear because what you sense may be closely related what the Bible teaches us.
\nWell, there are people who say, \u201cEven if I do not read the Bible, I can sense God\u2019s Grace through novels or Bible.\u201d However, in our world, either through novels or movies, stories in these novels are probably based on Bible. <\/p>\n

About the Lutheran Trademark, \u201cScripture Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone\u201d may be paraphrased by adding a few words. \u201cWe may have faith in which we follow Jesus as Messiah by grace alone, and that grace is revealed by Scripture alone. And by the faith in Jesus alone, we, sinners, are righteous.\u201d
\nNow a new week is given to us. I pray that through the story of Bartimaeus in the Bible, God\u2019s grace is poured unto each one of you, and the story may become your story, and in that story you follow Jesus with Joy! Amen

\u5b89\u9054\u5747 Scripture Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone Mark 10:46-52 May Grace and Peace of Jesus Christ be poured unto each one of you! I received theological education through Luther Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota, which is the largest seminary out of 8 ELCA seminaries.
