You know Martin Luther--the great reformer, the man that launched Protestantism? Well, he certainly didn't mince words when he said of the New Testament's epistle of James, "“Therefore St James’ epistle is really an epistle of straw, compared to these others, for it has nothing of the nature of the Gospel about it.” Believe it or not, Luther even suggested removing James from the canon of scripture.
It's also been suggested that James' view of salvation is markedly different from that of Paul. Further, allegedly, James rarely mentions Jesus in his contribution to the New Testament.
Today, Robby Lashua works through these allegations and protestations, helping us to see the virtue in this brief epistle. And, once we see it in the new light that Robby shares, we'll never again mistake the brevity of James for a lack of clarity in terms of who Jesus is and what He brings to the lives of His followers.
What is this Kingdom Culture Conversation podcast tradition, " 'What About?' Wednesday"? Every-other-Wednesday, we are joined by Robby Lashua, of Stand to Reason Ministries, an apologetics ministry based in Southern California.
Robby's role within these special "What About?" Wednesday episodes? Podcast listeners have the opportunity to email/text in their own "What About?" questions and during these episodes, Robby will work to answer the questions, point students towards the scriptural truth underlying their inquiry, and equip them to defend their faith!
