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. 當聖經談到教會合一時,這個合一可不是真理的代價,而是真裡的基礎。 |
Division is better than
agreement in evil. George Hutcheson 教會的分歧勝過在惡中的合一。 |
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。 |
