In view of what we have said we can now turn to face the enemy, for there is
a further aspect of the Blood which is Satanward. Satan’s most strategic
activity in this day is as the accuser of the brethren (Rev. 12:10) and it
is as this that our Lord confronts him with His special ministry as High
Priest “through his own blood” (Hebrews 9:12).
How then does the Blood operate against Satan? It does so by putting God on
the side of man against him. The Fall brough... 阅读全帖 |

Two aspects of the resurrection are mentioned in the two sections, in

mentioned in relation to our justification: “Jesus our Lord... was
delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification.”
Here the matter in view is that of our standing before God. But in Romans 6:
4 the resurrection is spoken of as imparting to us new life with a view to a

The normal Christian life must begin with a very definite ‘knowing’, which
is not just knowing something about the truth nor understanding some
important doctrine. It is not intellectual knowledge at all, but an opening
of the eyes of the heart to see what we have in Christ.
How do you know your sins are forgiven? Is it because your pastor told you
so? No, you just know it. If I ask you how you know, you simply answer, ‘I

Romans 7 has a new lesson to teach us. It is found in the discovery that I

beyond the question of sin, for it relates also the matter of pleasing God.
We are dealing here not with sin in its forms but with man in his carnal

中華文化不怎麽談個人，基督救人脫離個人罪的捆綁之說多少讓華人感到是很生疏的話

好說得罪上帝和彼此得罪，以及與上帝和好和被上帝接納，大家就會比較容易明白。關
於救贖的教義就是：基督的降世為人、死在十字架上、復活，這件事使信徒得到救贖與
神和好。這是福音，沒有爭論的。至於爲何如此，基督如何做成這工，則有多種哲學解
釋，每一種解釋都構成一個學説。
昨天我讀了一篇19世紀遁道會的神學家John Miley 寫的駁斥有限救贖論的研究論文。
我現在來試圖翻譯這個救贖論的觀念，因爲在網上找不到有關的中文討論。有些神學辯
論華人教會似乎一向不怎麽參與，所有的辯論，我們華人信徒可能常常會感到不得要領
，聼起來似乎都有些道理嘛。因爲你會注意到，這個救贖論的研討都是集中在個人層面
上的：圍繞著選民個人的被選、個人的罪得赦免和得救，而華人的文化卻是把焦點放在
群體和關係方面的，研究個體事物的屬性不是我們的擅長。
以下介紹的内容大半來自John Miley 的論文Theory of Satisfaction部份，... 阅读全帖 |

多次有从大陆来的人问我某个教会是不是邪教或哪个教派是邪教。他们不知道英文里没
有邪教这个词。常见英文里最接近中文的邪教这个词的是Cult。 而Cult这个词在早期
是中性的，指一种有别于其它宗教的崇拜方式和组织。我曾经看到有研究早期基督教历
史的书称基督教为Cult。在现在的英文字典中Cult有一种意义是非正统，有贬义；这在
早期是没有的。中文邪教的意义直译应该是Evil Religion，但是我很少或者根本没有
看到英文文章里出现这种词汇的组合。中国大陆来的人还有一个问题，常常不懂得什么
是政教分离。例如共产党把法轮功定为邪教明显是因为法轮功发展得太强大，对它的统
治出现了威胁。即中国的法轮功问题是个政治问题，不是个宗教问题。中国过去的正统
通常是由皇帝确定。古时中国正统主要根据儒教，也有佛教甚至道教的成分。当基督教
传入中国时，皇朝认为基督教是Heterodox【1】。费正清把Heterodox这个词译为‘歪
门邪道’，即不正统，倒没有说是邪教。西方对宗教... 阅读全帖 |

My tweet simply said, “We know that most Muslims today are not terrorists.
We also know that most terrorists today are Muslims.”
I tweeted this out on Friday night in the midst of the terror attacks in
France, and I didn’t think it would be controversial at all. In fact, it
seemed self-evident. To m... 阅读全帖 |

There are great men of God on both sides. 究竟哪一个是符合圣经教导的教义？
支持Once saved not always saved=>A Christian can lose their salvation的圣经
经节很多，80条左右，比如
Ezekiel 18
24 But if a righteous person turns from their righteousness and commits sin
and does the same detestable things the wicked person does, will they live?
None of the righteous things that person has done will be rem... 阅读全帖 |

Early Christian use of Thallus
The 9th-century Christian chronologer George Syncellus cites Sextus Julius
Africanus as writing in reference to the darkness mentioned in the synoptic
gospels as occurring at the death of Jesus:
Thallus calls this darkness an eclipse of the Sun in the third book of his
Histories.
Africanus then goes on to point out that an eclipse cannot occur at Passover
when the moon is full and therefore diametrical... 阅读全帖 |
