Confronting A Vital Distinction
For the Calvinist to uphold his extreme view of control, God must be the cau
se of man's total depravity and the negative response it produces. There is
no way to escape this conclusion. If God were not the cause of man's sin, ma
n would be acting independently of God, and that cannot be allowed for anyth
ing in the Calvinist scheme. It follows, then, that "He [God] could ... have
prevented it [the fall and entrance of sin into the world], but He did ... 阅读全帖 |

前 言
经常在街头巷尾可以看见三三两两，穿着正式的『耶和华见证人』挨家挨户的推销『守

对他们的执着与热忱所感，就引进他们，加上对于圣经真理认识不多，以为都是传基督
教信仰，就加入了这个组织。
2001 年，『耶和华见证人』号称已经打进全球两百多个国家，有六百多万信徒，从
1995年到2001年的七年当中，以每年增加二十多万信徒的速度快速成长。但是，『耶和
华见证人』所传的与圣经所教导的真理好像类似，却是个如假包换的异端，使人无法得
到真正的救恩。许多无知的跟从者尽其一生，却把希望寄托在诡诈 的欺骗里，而不认
识真正的救主耶稣，也不被真神所认识。
其实这个异端教训与教会在第四世纪时，就已经被定为异端的亚流派颇为类似，只是改
换包装，重新出发，为恶者所利用罢了。本文要撕开这个异端的美丽包装，好叫人能认

反基的观点是如果上帝存在，那么这个世界必然是没有痛苦的，对吧？
既然现在有痛苦，那么上帝必然不存在，对么？
这个逻辑的前提是：上帝会毫无原则的为人类去除一切痛苦。
基督徒相信在亚当吃禁果前，人类是没有这种生离死别的苦难的。但是自从亚当吃了禁
果，痛苦就来到了这个世界。这是人自己选择了作恶导致的。
基督教的上帝是统治宇宙的，但是基督徒之间对上帝是如何统治的也有分歧。有人认为
上帝是一切事情的直接原因甚至说上帝创造了911。有人认为上帝几乎不闻不问。大多

My daughter Maia is two, and has just asked about our cat. Our cat is dead.
Maia knows this. What she’s wondering is where he’s gone and what has
happened to him, now that he no longer meows beneath her kitchen chair,
impatient for the drips off her spoon.
This is the moment I realize: I need to know what I believe.

地卫理公会的副会长[1] 。大卫·鲍森的童年在英格兰北部度过，幼年想成为一位农民

will”，是神的统治力的表现。说他预言的事，是必然会发生的。是他冥冥中确保这些
事发生，但是这并非神想让人去杀戮和作恶，而是他预言这些是人们自身的罪和恶的果
实。

3. The reign of Messiah ch. 14
“The cosmic, eschatological sweep of this last portion . . . is almost
without compare in the prophetic literature of the OT for the richness of
its imagery, the authority of its pronouncements, and the majestic
exaltation of the God of Israel who will be worshiped as the God of ... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 1904 | 46 The Bible’s answer
Many Christian denominations teach that God is a Trinity. However, note what
the Encyclopædia Britannica states: “Neither the word Trinity nor the
explicit doctrine appears in the New Testament . . . The doctrine developed
gradually over several centuries and through many controversies.”
In fact, the God of the Bible is never described as being part of a Trinity.
Note these Bible passages:
“Jehovah our God is one Jehovah.”—Deuteronomy 6:4.

当时教我奉为模范的是那些谈到自己的常事时因措词不善或文法错误而受到讥评，便深
感惭愧，演述自己的轻薄行径时却有伦有脊、情文相生、淋漓尽致，受到人家称赞而引
以自豪的人。我堕入虚浮之中离开了你，又何足为奇？
主，你是种种觑得明白，但默而不言，你真是“能忍的，慈祥而真实的”。[33]但你是
否始终沉默呢？现在我的灵魂追求你、渴望你的甘饴，我的心灵向你说：“我已追寻你
的容光，主，我还将追寻你的容光”，[34]因为处于情欲的暗影之中，就远离你的容光
；你便把我从不测深渊中挽救出来。离开你或重新趋向你身畔，不是在双足的步履上，
也不是在空间的距离上。你的次子，是否跨马或乘车搭船，或生了双翅而飞行，或徒步
而去，别居于辽远的地区，挥霍你在临行时所给他的财物？[35]你是一位温良的父亲，
你给他财物；等他贫无立锥而回家时，你更是温良。因此，都是由于纵情恣欲才陷入黑
暗，才远离你的容光。
主、天主，请你看、请你和经常一样耐心地看：人的子孙多么留心遵守前人说话时通行

Evangelicals don't exactly hate Jesus -- as we've provocatively asserted in

for them. Through his magical grace, and by shedding his precious blood,

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 |
