DOCTRINE 教義

Doctrinal indifference is no solution to the problem of doctrinal differences.

教條化的不重視並非解決教條差異問題的良方。

The question is not whether a doctrine is beautiful, but whether it is true.

問題不在於教條美不美，而是到底是不是真的。

The doctrines of Christianity have just as much right to be believed as its duties have to be practised.

M. Arnaud

基督教的教義該被相信的權利有多少，它該被實行出來義務就有多少。

If you believe what you like in the gospel, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.

Augustine

如果你只相信喜歡的福音，拒絕不喜歡的，那你相信的根本不是福音而是你自己。

Doctrine is practical, for it is that that stirs up the heart.

Andrew Bonar

信仰的教義是十分實際的，因為它激動人心。

Doctrine is not an affair of the tongue but of the life...It is received only when it possesses the whole soul.

John Calvin

教義不是出於唇舌而是出於生命...唯有在佔據全心之時，才能得著。

Doctrine without duty is a tree without fruits; duty without doctrine is a tree without roots.

Talbot W. Chambers

光有教義沒有應盡的責任就像沒有果子的樹；光有應盡的責任卻沒有教義就像沒有根的樹。

The doctrines of the Bible are not isolated but interlaced; and the view of one doctrine must necessarily affect the view taken of another.

A. A. Hodge

聖經中的教義不是各自表述毫無關連，而是交織一起的；對一個教義的觀點勢必影響對另一個教義的觀點。

Let us embrace the whole truth, or renounce Christianity altogether.

Joseph Irons

讓我們擁抱全部的真理，不然就棄絕全部的基督教信仰。

You cannot drop the big themes and create great saints.

John Henry Jowett

你沒有辦法扔掉重要信仰而還能造就出偉大聖徒的。

Today's church...has no more solemn duty than to maintain purity of doctrine.

R. B. Kuiper

今天的教會再沒有比維持信仰純正還嚴肅的任務。

To say, 'Never mind doctrine, let's get on with evangelism' is as ridiculous as a football team saying, 'Never mind about a ball, let's get on with the game.'

Peter Lewis

若說：「不要管教義，讓我們去傳福音吧」這樣的說法可笑得就像一個足球隊說：「別管球了，咱們繼續比賽吧」。

Any teaching which does not square with the Scriptures is to be rejected even if it snows miracles every day.

Martin Luther

任何教導縱使能夠天天產生神蹟，但若不能符合聖經，仍然應該被棄絕一旁。

Weak doctrines will not be a match for powerful temptation.

William S. Plumer

軟弱教義無法與強大的試探匹敵。
