The question seems a hopeless one after 2000 years of resolute adherence

his victories, his empires, his millions of money, and his moralities

迦克墩(Chalcedon)信經
前言
基督教信仰的核心是神論，在尼西亞信經處理了三一論之後，接著便要面對如何處理基
督位格的問
題。尼西亞信經雖然肯定了耶穌基督神子的地位，但在耶穌基督身上神人二性是如何共
存的呢？在迦

，合中有分，
兩本性並存於一位格之中。如此的結論是如何得出的呢？中間又曾有過何種討論呢？
預備
迦克墩信經是第五世紀迦克墩會議的產物，但對基督神人二性的討論卻早就開始了。第
四世紀時的基
督論都以道為論述中心，可以分為兩派：一派重視基督的神性，一派強調祂的人性; 強

道肉基督論者以柏拉圖的人觀為前提，認為太初就在神裡面的道取了人的肉體而成為基

是全人的主導中心。而道人基督論者則根據亞里斯多德的人論，認為神裡面的道在童貞

1 字义解经之代表
I 游斯丁 （Justin Martyr，100-165 A.D.）
游斯丁为巴勒斯坦示剑人，辩道家中之巨擘，未归主前醉心柏拉图的思想；归主以后，
以勇敢大无畏之精神为主证道，后更殉道。他对末世论之信念是：将来会有肉体之复活
；主必再来；将来有千禧年国度；基督将会执行全人类的审判；认为教会与以色列是同
一的，并相信神对以色列的应许，将由教会承受。
II 爱任纽 （Irenaeus，130-200 A.D.）
爱任纽为士每拿人，早年受教于波利甲，深受波利甲的思想影响，爱任纽与约翰、波利
甲同样强调基督徒的爱心。后因遭逼迫，迁居里昂（Lyons），任该区主教。他重视传
统，主张婴孩要受洗才能洗去原罪。主要著作有《反异端》（Against Heresies）和《
使徒宣道论证》（ The Presentation of the Apostolic Preaching）等。他对末世论
之信念为：世界历史分为七期，一千年为一期； 七期过后为新天新地；第七期为千禧

」[70] 保罗要求哥林多人在神面前省察他们自己的心，看看他们究竟是否真实得救了。
虽然他是在哥林多开创了教会，当他给他们写信时他却不以为凡事会想当然地顺利，乃

附一：揭开“重生派”的内幕
附二：谢模善弟兄的一封信
前言
读经：（加5：20，弗4：14，彼后2：1）
我们知道，在使徒时代就有异端：我们也知道，历代都有异端。但有很多人忽略了末世
的异端。原来未世异端峰起，越来越多。因为撒但知道他的时日无多，所以到处搞异端
。
凡离开圣经真理的就是异端。比异端轻的叫“极端”，比异端重的就是“邪教”。凡是
异端都是打着基督教的旗号，说他们是基督教，而且说，唯有他们才是“正统”，各人
必须跟他们走才能得救。他们排斥一切的宗派。邪教我们容易防，因为他们不是基督教
。但异端说他们是正统基督教，这就难防了。他们也讲圣经，使人难以分辨真假。
关于历世历代的异端，特别是美国的异端，许多人都写书评论。也有不少人讲道，提到
异端的危险，劝人要谨防。
我们所着重的不是国外的异端，我们只能略提，我们所着重也不是历世的异端，我们要

Kim Riddlebarger 博士
一、 糟糕的指责 – 改革宗为什么不传福音？
不管有没有道理，改革宗都背上了不关心传福音的恶名。尽管有一些很奇妙的例外，但
有一些批评肯定是有道理的。为什么会这样？介绍一些历史背景会有帮助。
1、 辉煌的过去 – 值得质疑的现状
从历史上看，改革宗有着传福音和差传的辉煌历史。确实，欧洲和新世界的基督化是宗
教改革，拼命强调唯独信心，唯独圣经的结果，这是不可轻看的。可以把加拿大和美国
这些抗罗宗国家和像墨西哥，巴西这些天主教国家作一个对比。
第一次“大觉醒”，以及其主导人物，比如约拿·单爱德华滋和乔治·怀特腓，主要是
带历史性的改革宗特色的， 有怀特腓出名的布道《基督我们的义》，爱德华滋经典的《
落在愤怒神手中的罪人》为例。然而约翰卫斯理也是第一次大觉醒不可分割的一部分，
以及甚至像怀特腓和爱德华滋这些加尔文主义者也强调的“归正经历”，这些在许多方
面为第二次大觉醒打下了根基，而第二次大觉醒是在很大程度上废除了第一次大觉醒中

发帖数: 5754 | 41 Chapter 2: The Cross of Christ
We have seen that Romans 1 to 8 falls into two sections, in the first of
which we are shown that the Blood deals with what we have done, while in the
second we shall see that the Cross(2) deals with what we are. We need the
Blood for forgiveness; we need also the Cross for deliverance. We have dealt
briefly above with the first of these two and we shall move on now to the
second; but before we do so we will look for a moment at a few more features
of this passage w... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 5754 | 42 Chapter 3.2 The First Step: “Knowing This...”
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
know it!’ Such knowledge com... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 5754 | 43 chapter 9.4 Our End Is God’s Beginning
Now that we have settled the doctrinal side of the question we must come
down to practical issues, staying a little longer with the negative aspect
and keeping the positive for our next chapter. What does it mean in everyday
life to be delivered from the Law? At the risk of a little overstatement, I
reply, “It means that from henceforth I am going to do nothing whatever
for God: I am never again going to try to please Him.” ‘What a doctrine!’

发帖数: 5754 | 44 chapter 12.4 The Light Of God And Knowledge
Of course, if one does not set out to serve the Lord whole-heartedly,
one does not feel the necessity for light. It is only when one has been
apprehended by God, and seeks to go forward with Him, that one finds
how necessary light is. There is a fundamental need of light in order
for us to know the mind of God; to know what is of the spirit and what
is of the soul; to know what is Divine and what is merely of man; to
discern what i... 阅读全帖 |

“Original Sin” and a Misapplied Passage
By Wayne Jackson
The doctrine of original sin—the notion that one is born into this world
hereditarily totally depraved—is widely believed in the religious world.
For example, the Augsburg Confession of Faith (1530), Lutheranism’s creed,
asserted:
[A]ll men, born according to nature, are born with sin, that is, without
the fear of God, without confidence towards God and with concupiscence,... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 9485 | 47 Preliminary Principles
First of all, it needs to be initially recognized that this passage is
Hebrew poetry. And Hebrew poetry abounds with bold and imaginative figures
of speech; it is frequently characterized by a freedom which departs from
customary forms of expression. It is, therefore, a mistake of great
magnitude to extract statements from poetical literature and thus employ
them as a foundation for doctrinal schemes.
This is precisely the error of the materialists (Watchtower Witnesses,

发帖数: 9485 | 48 is it true that because Latter-day Saints believe that human beings can
eventually become like God, they are not Christian?
As even a cursory glance at early Christian thought reveals, the idea that
man might become as God—known in Greek as theosis or theopoiesis—may be
found virtually everywhere, from the New Testament through the writings of
the first four centuries. Church members take seriously such passages as
Psalm 82:6 [Ps. 82:6], John 10:33–36, and Philippians 2:5–6 [Philip. 2:5–
6], in ... 阅读全帖 |

C. 摩门教的可疑权威
C.3 摩门教权威人士的教导
(1) 约瑟.史密斯的首个异象
(1.1) 首个异象是信仰根基[1]
摩门教的创始人是约瑟.史密斯(Joesph Smith, 也可译作“斯密约瑟”). 他创
立摩门教的主要原因, 是由于看见他所谓的“异象”, 即“天父”和“主耶稣”向他显
现. 于是这异象成为整个摩门教信仰的根基. 约瑟.史密斯的第一个异象记载于摩门教
的权威经典《无价珍珠》中(在名为“约瑟.史密斯的写作”之部分). 这记录是今日摩
门教所承认的, 2章3至19节记载说:
“我在主后1805年12月13日出生[2]… 在我们居住的地方发生异常的宗教问题骚动. 首
先由卫理公会开始, 迅即波及那个地区的所有教派. …当时我还不满15岁. …当我正烦
恼着这些宗教家的派别争论所引起的极端难题时, 有一天, 我读到雅各书1:5, 那里写
道: 你们中间若有缺少智慧的, 应当求那厚赐与众人, 也不斥责人的神, 主就必赐给他
