〈聖經的本性與權威〉,《聖經論》/ 柯志明教授

「當我們說聖經是上帝的話時,意指整本聖經都是直接出於上帝的啟示或言說。只要我們認為聖經不純然是上帝的啟示,而有些是,有些不是,那麼我們就不可能完全相信聖經,我們就有理由質疑聖經的任何一個部分是否真為上帝的啟示;最為嚴重的是,在不能清楚區分哪些是又哪些不是上帝的啟示的情況下,我們甚至不得不質疑整本聖經是否真實可信,以至於對整本聖經失去信心(柯志明,〈聖經的本性與權威〉,《聖經論》,頁44-45)。
“When we say that the Bible is the word of God, it means that the entire Bible is directly inspired or spoken by God. As long as we believe that the Bible is not purely God ’s revelation, and some are, some are not, then we cannot believe the Bible completely, and we have reason to question whether any part of the Bible is really God ’s revelation; the most serious thing is that without a clear distinction between what is and what is not God ’s revelation, we even have to question whether the entire Bible is true and credible, so that we lose faith in the entire Bible” (Immanuel Chih-Ming Ke, The Nature and Authority of the Bible,” Bibliology, page 44-45).
