CHURCH UNITY

教會合一

When the Bible speaks about church unity, it speaks of unity not at the expense of truth but on the basis of it.

John Stott

當聖經談到教會合一時,它所說的合一,不是犧牲真理來換取,而是以真理為根基。

Division is better than agreement in evil.

George Hutcheson

因持守正義而帶來的分歧,遠勝於在邪惡與妥協中達成的一致。

Unity must be ordered according to God's holy Word, or else it were better war than peace.

Hugh Latimer

教會的合一必須符合上帝神聖話語,若非根基上帝話語,爭戰亦勝過和平。

Putting all the ecclesiastical corpses into one graveyard will not bring about resurrection.

D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

將教會所有的死屍全埋到墓園也不會帶來復活。

I am quite sure that the best way to promote union is to promote truth.

C. H. Spurgeon

我十分確信最佳促進合一之道就是讓真理更加彰顯。

The way to the union of Christendom does not lie through committee-rooms...It lies through personal union with the Lord so deep and real as to be comparable with his union with the Father.

William Temple

基督教會的合一並非來自會議室…而是來自個人與主深厚、真實的合一,正如子與父的合一。

Unity without verity is not better than conspiracy.

John Trapp

缺乏實質的合一沒比各懷鬼胎好多少。
