上帝是爱的圣经观

圣经观的问题,看似可以用简单的一句话就可以说明白。实际上,教会的圣经观关系到教会如何看待和解释圣经,如何用圣经的真理指导教会的灵命实践。所以,圣经观代表了基督徒和教会的上帝观、世界观、人生价值观和真理观。基督教会的历史,可以说是一部如何诠释圣经的历史。丁主教提出的上帝是爱的圣经观,使中国教会不再重走西方教会思想史上每每陷于复杂的教义争论的老路,而是引导中国教会重视圣经的中心信息就是上帝爱世人,上帝的创造和救赎最终目的是使人类社会更加和谐美好,因为上帝是世上一切真善美的源头。所以,丁光训主教提出上帝是爱的圣经观及神学框架,教导我们在一种动态的爱中去体验上帝与人的关系,去体验基督徒与世界的关系,而不再去争论教义的细节,不再人为地给教会设置一道无形的围墙;教导我们敞开胸怀接纳世上一切美好的真理,使教会作出更加美好的见证。丁主教的圣经观,为中国教会在今天的处境中解释圣经,并用圣经诠释引导教会的实践指出了一条可行之路。

教会是一(续九)

<正>1950年,赵紫宸写了一篇题为"用爱心建立团契"的文章,探讨中国教会改革的问题。他指出,当时中国教会改革的事工中最艰难的问题是自养问题和合一问题。他提出解决问题的途径就是用爱心建立团契。他说:"我们若能先提倡用爱心建立团契,到了相当的爱的程度,这些难问题自然会消灭……在爱里有自由,可以脱出西宣教会经济的拘

中国基督教神学思想建设

教会自身建设是多方面的,但主要是两个方面:一是组织制度建设,这是关系到教会自身行政管理的事工,是教会建设的基础,是教会事工进展的组织保证;二是生命的成长如何使教会满有基督长成的身量,这既包括如何带领信徒个人灵命追求和如何走侍奉神的路,又包含将教会金灯台的见证显明社会之中,使教会成为荣神益人,造福社会的教会,成为荣耀的教会献给神。神藉着圣灵向人和教会启示他的旨意和真理的方式不是绝对的。他以相对的、渐进的和不断更新的方法引领我们进入他丰富恩典。教会历史和圣经明训极为充分证明了这个极为重要的一点,这是我们中国教会…

做光、做盐——写在浙江省基督教两会“光盐爱心基金会”成立之际

从圣经启示和教会传统来看,宣讲十字架真理（Kerygma）与效法基督躬身侍奉（Diakonia）,始终是历代教会在属世社会做出美好见证的两大圣工。从理解的层面来看,教会的所有的事工只要可以彰显出基督之爱,都是应该倡导的,因此,不存在孰重孰轻,或孰先孰后。讲道诉诸言说,服侍见证心灵。中国教会蒙受圣灵的眷顾和引领,亦是孜孜以求于教会的各项事工。     

请为中国教会的广大教会义工代祷

现状之描述： 中国教会的“义工现象”缘于复堂后“庄稼多工人少”的严峻现实,广大比较老练的信徒出于爱主爱教会的热忱,把业余时间全部投入在教会各种服侍之中,这为中国教会的恢复与发展写下了浓墨重彩的一笔。教会发展到今天,若离开广大义工（平信徒）的事工参与的确是不可想象的。有同工估计,中国教会至少有超过50万人数的义工活跃在教会工场上。

Seeing and hearing and space and space and time

A previous experiment had shown spatial location to be judged in terms of the framework provided by the modality in which stimuli were presented. In the present study, digits were either auditorally or visually presented, and in either form the three digits appeared successivly to the left, in the center, and to the right of the S. The digit which occurred temporally in the middle of the sequence was never central from the spatial viewpoint. The S was asked to indicate which digit was the middle one. Ss were blind, deaf, or normal. The deaf and two control groups saw visual displays, and the blind and their controls heard auditory displays. The former groups predominantly chose the spatially middle digit and the latter groups the temporally middle. It was concluded that modality of presentation was the trigger which switched in the coding dimension of time or space.     

Bob and Carol and Tess and Ali

Conflicting religious experiences in different traditions do not necessarily defeat the rationality of conflicting beliefs sustained by those experiences in those traditions. The circularity that protects religious beliefs from such mutual defeat is not vicious. Moreover, the lack of ‘epistemological humility’ exhibited by such believers poses no threat to world peace. In fact, a campaign for compulsory humility would itself constitute a much greater threat.     

Law and Gospel,and Youth and Family Ministry

Abstract : If “faith comes through hearing” the word of God comprised in law and gospel, how do the imperatives that characterize ‘Youth and Family Ministry’ make such hearing possible? Here, literature delineating ‘Youth and Family Ministry’ is analyzed in light of its biblical foundations. The primary lens implemented in this analysis is the law/gospel hermeneutic advocated by Martin Luther and other reformers.     

Extremes of self-esteem and narcissism and the experience and expression of anger and aggression

This study examined the level of self-esteem and narcissism as personality variables involved in the disposition to experience and express anger. Three hundred thirty-eight subjects were sampled across two higher education centres and one student teaching programme in the United Kingdom. It was reasoned that individuals with both high self-esteem and narcissism would report especially high tendencies to experience and express anger and aggression and that those with high self-esteem and low narcissism would report the lowest. These predictions were influenced by theories that emphasise the role of threats to high self-esteem in the production of aggression and violence. Results indicate that groups defined by their extreme scores on self-esteem and narcissism scales produced levels of anger expression in the predicted direction. The importance of considering extreme levels of self-esteem and narcissism (in conjunction with other factors) in an analysis of anger is discussed with reference to currently influential theories in the field.

Dance and psychotherapy--possibilities and limits

From a starting point of therapeutic and prophylactic components identifiable in the dance, the authors regard the dance as deserving of greater attention than was hitherto the case in programs of physiotherapy, psychotherapy, and sociotherapy. From the existing essays at a therapy basing on body and motion, they infer basic common points, and to promote discussion, they state their attitudes in respect of the potential and rank of the dance in the concept of complex multimodal psychotherapy.     

Yin and Yang,and the Hot and the Cold

Yin and Yang are important concepts in ancient Chinese philosophy.Western scholars have become more familiar with these two concepts recently,but for a long time almost no one considered comparing them with their own tradition such as the ancient Greek philosophy,and especially with the ideas of the Hot and the Cold in Presocratic philosophy.In this paper,I make an attempt to do exactly that,and especially make a detailed comparison between the thoughts of two ancient thinkers:Laozi and Anaximander.I discuss the thought of Yin and Yang in Laozi-who was the earliest philosopher making use of the concepts Yin and Yang-to express his cosmological thought in ancient Chinese philosophy.Comparatively,I discuss the ideas of the Hot and the Cold in Anaximander,the earlier among Presocratic philosophers referring to the Hot and the Cold as fundamental concepts used to establish his cosmological system.Through this comparison,I indicate that the similarity between ancient Chinese and Western traditions is far more significant than what people are used to imagining.     

Perversion and infancy and adolescence

Abstract

Studying the works of Freud and Lacan, the authors carried out research on perversion in childhood. Their work covered the perverse polymorphism of infantile sexuality and the perception of the anatomic difference between the sexes that leads the child to create sexual theories and fantasies. The phallic mother and the fetish are viewed as imaginary solutions directly related to the Oedipus and castration complexes. In perversion, a particular position is taken in relation to the Oedipus complex: a serious flaw occurs in the symbolization of the law, and the mechanisms of denial and disavowal take form. Sexuality requires a second “logical time,” separated from infancy by the latency period, in order to confirm (in action) that a fixed position of jouissance (enjoyment) has actually been established. This can only happen in a period after adolescent enhancement. The distinction between perverse traces and a perverse structure is made, taking into account the fact that, in the case of child analysis, the analyst should free the child from the family fantasy and help him/her to build his/her own fantasy.

Campos Santoro V. et al. Perversion und Kindheit und Adoleszenz.

Im Studium der Arbeiten von Freud und Lacan haben die Autoren Forschung über Perversion in der Kindheit gemacht. Die Studien behandeln den perversen Polymorphismus der infantilen Sexualität und die Wahrnehmung des anatomischen Unterschiedes zwischen den Geschlechtern, welche das Kind dazu führt, Sexual-Theorien und Phatasien zu schaffen.

Die phallische Mutter und der Fetisch werden als imaginäre Lösungen angesehen, die sich direkt auf den Ödipus- und Kastrations-Komplex beziehen. Bei der Perversion wird eine besondere Position in Bezug auf den Ödipus angenommen; ein ernsthafter Mangel tritt bei der Symbolisierung des Rechts auf; die Mechanismen der Verneinung und der Verleugnung bilden sich. Sexualität erfordert eine zweite “logische Zeit”, von der Kindheit durch die Latenz Periode getrennt, um (in der Handlung) zu bestätigen, daß eine fixierte Position der jouissance (Vergnügung) sich tatsächlich etabliert hat. Das kann sich nur in einer Periode nach der adoleszenten Verstärkung ereignen.

Es wird die Unterscheidung zwischen perversen Spuren und einer perversen Struktur gemacht, in Rechnung stellend, daß im Fall der Kinder-Analyse der Analytiker das Kind von der Familien-Phantasie befreien sollte und ihm/ihr helfen sollte, seine/ihre Phantasie auszubilden.

Campos Santoro V. Perversión e infancia y adolescencia.

Estudiando los trabajos de Freud y Lacan, los autores han investigado la perversión en la niñez. Los estudios cubren la sexualidad infantil perversa polimorfa y la percepción de la diferencia anatómica entre los sexos, que llevan al niño a crear teorías sexuales y fantasías.

La madre fálica y el fetiche son vistos como soluciones imaginarias relacionadas directamente con el complejo de Edipo y de castración. La perversión, toma una posición particular en relación al Edipo; un fallo importante tiene lugar en la simbolización de la ley; los mecanismos de negación y repudio toman forma. La sexualidad requiere un segundo “tiempo lógico” separado de la infancia por el periodo de latencia, para confirmar (en acto) que una posición fija de jouissance (goce) se ha establecido. Esto solo puede ocurrir en un periodo posterior a la intensificación adolescente.

La distinción entre las huellas perversas y la estructura perversa se ha hecho, teniendo en cuenta que, en el caso del análisis de niños, el analista debe librar al niño de la fantasía familiar y ayudar a el/ella a construir su propia fantasía.     

神圣、凡俗与净明、忠孝

本文结合有关宗教学理论,对宋元净明道所推崇的"净明"、"忠孝"概念进行了解析.作者以为:宋元净明道视世俗性的道德实践为"神圣"的宗教修炼,实与宗教学中的凡俗可以"转换"为神圣之理论相合;而净明道徒的这种"转换",则多与其个体的"宗教体验"有关.至于元代净明道借"无极"概念来释"净明",以"净明"为回复宇宙根源之境界,则合于宗教人经验到与万物的根源、终极的本体或神圣的世界契合之感.换言之,宋元净明道的"净明"、"忠孝"说,实与各种宗教的本质有着相通之处.
