〈聖經的本性與權威〉，《聖經論》/ 柯志明教授

「上帝的教會當然必須服在聖經之下，不斷接受聖經的質疑、挑戰與批判，因為聖經就是上帝的話。因此，雖然教會有權宣講、解釋聖經，但卻無權規定聖經的意義，相反地，所有教會的宣講與文獻都必須受聖經的規範，而聖經則是規範著教會而本身不受規範的規範」（柯志明，〈聖經的本性與權威〉，《聖經論》，頁71）。

“Of course, the church of God must be subordinate to the Bible, and constantly accept queries, challenges, and criticisms, because the Bible is the Word of God. Therefore, although the church has the right to preach and explain the Bible, it does not have the right to prescribe the meaning of the Bible. On the contrary, all the preaching and writing of the church must be regulated by the Bible, and the Bible is the norm that regulates the church but not itself” (Immanuel Chih-Ming Ke, “The Nature and Authority of the Bible,” Bibliology, page 71).
