Eric H. H. Chang. In this message we will consider some aspects of the meaning of baptism. The reason for this is that there are some people, who are contemplating baptism and they need to understand clearly what it means. There are also many Christians who have been baptized and yet they do not seem at all to understand what baptism means. And there are also some non-Christians who wonder what this matter of baptism is all about. Those who have already gone through baptism can consider again what exactly you did in relation to the Lord. What happened to you on the day you were baptized? What does it mean for you today? Is it something in the past or does it still have meaning for you now? There is also the question: If you are not baptized are you really a Christian or not? In speaking on baptism, I want to avoid any difficult or technical terms. I want to discuss it very simply in a way that everyone can easily understand. There have been people who have tried to read books on baptism and they found it difficult to understand that they gave up. I remember when I was in Bible college a fellow student asked me: "What the meaning of baptism? I've never been baptized but what does it mean? Why should I be baptized?" So here was somebody who had already committed himself to God's work and he still didn't know the significance of baptism so he had never been baptized. But after our discussion together he did go and get baptized although he'd been a Christian for many years. I will give you the definition of baptism in one sentence, which I'll then have to elaborate. Baptism is the sacrament of union. You say to yourself, "Well, that definition doesn't seem to help me very much." But I just want you to bear in mind the word union. A sacrament is simply the outward expression of something that has already taken place inside you. In the Church we have two sacraments. We have the sacrament of union and the sacrament of communion. To put it in another way we can say that baptism is the covenant of union. But union with whom? It is union with Christ. What is the best way to try and understand this? I would like to use the example of a wedding because a wedding is also a covenant of union. When two people get married they enter into a covenant of union with one another. When you enter into baptism you enter into a covenant of union with Christ. What is the Biblical foundation for the comparison of baptism to a wedding? Well, there is much Scriptural evidence but I will limit it to one or two points. In 1Cor. 6:17 we read: "He who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with Him". Think carefully on these words: He who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with Him. When were you joined to the Lord, if you have ever been joined to the Lord? You were joined to the Lord in baptism. The word "joined" is the same word that is used in Matthew 19:5. There you read about the husband and wife being joined together in marriage. That same word is used here in 1 Corinthians 6 to speak of the union of the disciple, of the Christian, with Christ. 1 We can go on to many such passages, for example Ephesians 5 where there is a whole section on marriage (vv. 22-33) which is often read at weddings. But interestingly, in the middle of this passage about marriage we suddenly find in v.26 a reference to baptism, where it says that, "Christ also loved the Church and gave Himself up for her; that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word" (vv. 25b, -26). And in verse 31 we have exactly the same verse as in Mt. 19:5: "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and the two shall become one." Also the Bible often speaks about the Lord Jesus as the Bridegroom of the Church. In 2 Cor 11:2, Paul, speaking to the Corinthians says: "I betrothed you to Christ to present you as a pure bride to her one husband." And so we can see that this picture of the wedding, of the Christian being united with Christ, is used again and again. In Romans 6:3-5 we are said to be united with Christ in His death, and "in newness of life", through baptism. But what then is the meaning of a wedding? Is such a ceremony really important? Can't two people become husband and wife without going through a marriage? The universal answer to this question is no. You cannot become husband and wife without marriage. Whether in the most primitive societies or the most advanced countries, it is always the same. Nowhere in the world will any two people be regarded as husband and wife who have not gone through a marriage. But why not? Why can't one just dispense with a marriage? The reason is that the marriage or wedding is not just a ceremony. It is a covenant. A covenant you might say is a contract with one another, a committal or commitment to one another. So where there is no such covenant or contract between two people, then their love has not become concrete, it has not materialized in a distinct transaction between them. So no matter how much they love one another they are not husband and wife. When we speak of a covenant or contract we do not necessarily mean that the two people have to go to a church. For even the unbeliever knows that unless he has a covenant or contract together with his wife, they are not really and legally husband and wife. And even if they don't go to a church they still must go to the Registry Office to sign in a book that "this day we have become husband and wife". At the Registry Office they are required to have two or three witnesses present who also sign the marriage certificate. But why the witnesses? Because the witnesses are there to testify that this contract has been established in front of them. So we can see that in personal relations, these relations do not become concrete, they have not been definitely established, until there is a covenant. Similarly you can have a person who says he believes in Christ, who says he loves the Lord Jesus and wants to follow Him, but so long as he has not entered into a covenant with Christ he is no Christian. Because in a covenant you commit yourselves to one another. Up to that point there was no clear committal, or there was a committal in the heart but it was not established in front of witnesses so as to make it concrete and real. So we can see that baptism is not just any kind of ceremony but that it is a covenant. The word "covenant" is used again and again in the Bible. That's why you have the Old Covenant or the Old Testament. "Testament" was used to 2 translate the Greek word for covenant. You also have the New Testament or the New Covenant. I repeat once more so that no one is uncertain about it: What do we do in baptism? We enter into a union with Christ. But this union is not just a feeling, it is a definite commitment, a covenant with Christ. Now let's look a little more deeply into this and compare the union in a wedding with the union with Christ in baptism. Firstly, just as in a wedding the two people commit themselves to one another because of their mutual love, so also in baptism we commit ourselves to Christ and we want to express our love to Him. You would not go and marry somebody you just happen to like. Such a wedding would be very unfortunate. No, you must really love the person to the extent that you are prepared to share your life with that person. So also for the Christian. We do not just commit ourselves to Jesus because we happen to like Him, but because we want to commit ourselves totally and unconditionally to Him. We want to share our life with Him. Secondly, like the wedding, baptism is a proclamation, a declaration. That is to say, I show everybody by this action that I love this person. Therefore in baptism I am declaring before all these people, before all the spiritual powers In heaven and on earth, I am declaring before all these witnesses that I love the Lord Jesus and have committed myself to Him.

    Sincere Faith: An Exposition of the Book of James Sermon One: A Sincere Introduction May 16, 2021 Opening ILL: Sometimes things just don’t pass the sniff test. Let me ask you this: Imagine you grab a gallon of milk from the fridge, you open it up and it just doesn’t smell right. Do you look at the expiration date and say, (1)“Well, this says I have 3 more days.” Or, (2) do you say, “I don’t care what that date says, it just doesn’t smell right, or (3) do you ask your spouse, “Honey? Does this smell ok to you?” See, sometimes it’s not that things are rotten, they’re just a little off. Quote: “It is vain to shut our eyes to the fact that there is a vast quantity of so-called Christianity nowadays which you cannot declare positively unsound, but which, nonetheless, is not full measure, good weight and sixteen ounces to the pound. It is a Christianity in which there is undeniably something about Christ, something of grace, something about faith, and something about repentance and something about holiness; but it is not the real thing as it is in the Bible.” J. C. Ryle, “Holiness”, page 13 I. A Sincere Introduction to the Book of James Point: We have to be careful here not to get too bogged down in the details. While I love a good, academic discussion as much as the next guy, I will pass lightly over these things. After all, why spend 40 minutes convincing you that James wrote the book of James? A.

    Case 1:12-cv-06646-AJN-SN Document 90 Filed 05/28/14 Page 1 of 80 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK -----------------------------------------------------------------X 5/28/2014 CAPITOL RECORDS, LLC, d/b/a EMI MUSIC NORTH AMERICA, Plaintiff, 12-CV-06646 (AJN)(SN) -against- REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION ESCAPE MEDIA GROUP, INC., Defendant. -----------------------------------------------------------------X SARAH NETBURN, United States Magistrate Judge. TO THE HONORABLE ALISON J. NATHAN: INTRODUCTION In 1999, a teenage college dropout finished writing software for an internet service called Napster that would allow people to swap music stored on their computers. Six months after the service was released, 18 record companies filed a lawsuit to shut it down. Since then, content- sharing websites have proliferated. Listening to music obtained free from others over the internet has become increasingly common; so too have lawsuits that pit corporate copyright owners against emergent online service providers in disputes over the use of copyrighted musical works. This is such a lawsuit. Before the Court is the plaintiff EMI’s motion for summary judgment on its copyright infringement claims against Escape Media Group, which operates the free music-streaming website Grooveshark.com. Like many recent copyright lawsuits against online service providers, this case turns not on whether Grooveshark exploits EMI’s copyrighted works without Case 1:12-cv-06646-AJN-SN Document 90 Filed 05/28/14 Page 2 of 80 authorization, but on whether Escape can secure immunity from monetary liability for any infringing activity under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. After considering the papers submitted in support of and in opposition to EMI’s summary judgment motion, as well as the arguments advanced by the parties at the April 29, 2014 hearing, the Court recommends that EMI’s motion for summary judgment be GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART.

  • Sacramental Preparation in a Correctional Facility
    INTRODUCTION TO SACRAMENTAL PREPARATION IN A CORRECTIONAL FACILITY As Catholic ministers in a correctional facility, our greatest impact is our presence as a witness of God's unconditional love for all, especially those considered "outcasts from society." Many of the people we meet in our ministry feel alienated from God, their families, the community, and the Church. For the first time, many of the people we meet can have a positive experience of Church. This positive experience leads to a desire to participate more fully in the sacramental life that the Church has to offer. It is not uncommon, then, that requests come to the chaplain of a correctional facility for the celebration of the sacraments. This manual will offer policies and guidelines for the celebration of all the sacraments, but will pay particular attention to the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist and Reconciliation. BACKGROUND Most sacramental preparation programs in a parish setting assume that the person going through them has had some regular church contact, enjoys a degree of harmony and stability in their life and home, and possesses necessary learning skills and abilities. Many of those to whom we minister do not enjoy such backgrounds. Consequently, the formation programs designed for the parish setting are not necessarily appropriate for the population we serve. It is not uncommon for a chaplain or volunteer to develop a formation program that he or she finds suitable for the people he or she serves. The practices and policies for sacramental preparation have varied from one institution to another, and within an institution, from one volunteer to another.
