〈聖經的權威與真理〉，《聖經論》/ 柯志明教授

「聖經是上帝的話，因而不可隨人解釋。聖經的意義清楚明白，是人人可理解的，但這不意味著人人可隨意解經。所謂以讀者為中心的釋經觀當然是錯的。聖經是客觀的，其意義也是客觀的，因為它是上帝的話，表達著上帝的心意。無論如何，聖經都不可能以人為中心，聖經的權威也不可能建基於人之上。聖經的權威來自於上帝且單單來自於上帝，別無其他」（柯志明，〈聖經的權威與真理〉，《聖經論》，126頁）。

“The Bible is the Word of God, so it cannot be interpreted by anyone. The meaning of the Bible is clear and understandable to everyone, but this does not mean that everyone can interpret the scriptures at will. The so-called interpretation criticism of the reader-response is surely wrong. The Bible is objective, and its meaning is also objective, because it is the word of God, expressing God's will. In any case, the Bible cannot be human-centered, and the authority of the Bible cannot be built on people. The authority of the Bible comes from God and from God alone, nothing else”(Immanuel Chih-Ming Ke, “The Authority and Truth of the Bible,” Bibliology, page 106).
