〈聖經的權威與真理〉,《聖經論》/ 柯志明教授

「聖經是基督信仰的唯一現實權威,即在世間唯一配得無條件順從的權威,以至於整個基督信仰的內涵須建立在其上,基督徒的生活完全以之為最終基礎;所有與聖經教導抵觸者無效,可不服從,無論這些教導出自於誰,即便教會最有權勢、學問或美德者也不例外。何以如此?因為聖經是上帝的直接啟示,也就是上帝的話」(柯志明,〈聖經的權威與真理〉,《聖經論》,頁91)。
“The Bible is the only realistic authority of the Christian faith; that is, the only authority worthy of unconditional obedience in the world, so that the connotation of the entire Christian faith must be built on it, and the Christian life is entirely based on it; all those who contradict the teachings of the Bible are invalid and can be disobeyed, no matter who these teachings come from, even if it comes from the most powerful, learned, or virtuous of the church. Why? It is because the Bible is a direct revelation of God; that is, the Word of God” (Immanuel Chih-Ming Ke, “The Authority and Truth of the Bible,” Bibliology, page 91).

「經驗、理性、文化也一樣,它們常誤導人,甚至引導人離棄上帝與耶穌基督的救恩。因此,它們都無法成為基督徒生命的權威,只有聖經才是基督徒生命的權威」(柯志明,〈聖經的權威與真理〉,《聖經論》,92頁)。
“The same is true for experience, reason, and culture. They often mislead people and even lead them to forsake the salvation of God and Jesus Christ. Therefore, none of them can be the authority of Christian life. Only the Bible is the authority of Christian life.” (Immanuel Chih-Ming Ke, “The Authority and Truth of the Bible,” Bibliology, page 92).
