Statement of Faith 信仰宣言
1. Scriptures
We believe in the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, as Scripture, written and handed down to us by persons inspired by the Holy Spirit, and is inerrant, infallible, and authoritative in all matters of faith and practice. Therefore, it is relevant in all cultural context for all times; and that theology be taught in a way that does not contradict Scripture.
(2 Tim. 3:16-17; Prov. 30:5-6; John 10:35; 2 Pet. 1:21)
1.圣经
我们相信新旧约圣经为圣灵默示人而写成,是无误并具有信仰与生活实践上的权威。因此,圣经适用于任何时代的文化处境;而神学的教导不能与圣经相违背。
(提后3:16-17;箴30:5-6;约10:35;彼后1:21)
2. God
We believe in one true and living God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, who are coequal in glory, majesty, and power. God is sovereign, holy, and gracious, the Creator and Sustainer of all things. God has revealed Himself in Creation, History, and in Jesus Christ. (Deut. 6:4; Matt. 28:19; 1 Cor. 8:6).
2.神
我们相信一位永活的神,以父、子、圣灵三个位格永恒存在,同享尊荣、伟大和权能。神拥有无上权能、全然圣洁和满有恩典怜悯,祂是万有的创造者和维护者。神透过创造、人类的历史和耶稣基督彰显祂自己。
(申6:4;太28:19,林前8:6)
3. Jesus Christ
We believe in Jesus Christ, truly divine and truly human – conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, died on the Cross to atone for our sins, rose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and will personally return in glory and power to judge the living and the dead, and reign forever. He is the only Mediator between God and humanity and the Head of His Church.
(John 1:1-14; Rom. 5:8; 1 Cor. 15:3-4; Col. 1:18; 1 Tim. 2:5)
3.耶稣基督
我们相信耶稣基督,完全的神和完全的人。从圣灵感孕并由童女马利亚所生;没有犯过罪,施行神迹并为救赎我们的罪而被钉死在十字架上,之后从死里复活,升天并将在荣耀与权能中再来,审判活人死人、执掌王权直到永远。祂是神与人之间的中保和教会的元首。
(约1:1-14;罗5:8,林前15:3-4;西1:18;提前2:5)
4. The Holy Spirit
We believe in the Person and work of the Holy Spirit, who convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, regenerates sinners, and indwells believers. The Holy Spirit empowers, sanctifies, and equips the Church for ministry, distributing spiritual gifts for the edification of the Body of Christ, conforming believers to the image of Christ. (John 16:7-15; Acts 1:8; 1 Cor. 12:4-11; Gal. 5:22-23)
4.圣灵
我们相信圣灵的位格和工作。祂在世界中定人的罪、宣告公义和审判,并更新悔改的罪人和内住在信徒里面。圣灵赋予新生命、使人成圣并且装备教会作主的工、为教化的目的分配圣灵的恩赐给基督的身体,塑造信徒更有基督的样式。
(约16:7-15;徒1:8;林前12:4-11;加5:22-23)
5. Humanity
We believe that humanity, male and female, is created in the image of God and was made for a relationship with Him. However, through Adam’s disobedience, humanity fell into sin, becoming spiritually dead and alienated from God, and is now subject to His judgment (Genesis 1:26-27; Romans 5:12-19).
5.人类
我们相信人,男人和女人是按照神的形象被造,被造的目的是要与神建立关系。然而,因着亚当的不顺服,人类堕入罪中,带来灵性的死亡以及与神隔绝,如今在神的审判之下。
(创1:26-27; 罗5:12-19)
6. Salvation in Jesus Christ
We believe that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. It is a gift of God, not based on human works. The death and resurrection of Christ provide full atonement for sin, and through repentance and faith, individuals are justified, regenerated, and adopted into God’s family. Salvation calls believers to live lives of obedience and holiness (John 3:16; Ephesians 2:8-10; Romans 5:1-2; Titus 3:4-7; 1 Peter 1:15-16).
6.基督的救赎
我们相信救赎是单凭着恩典借着在耶稣基督里的信心。这是神所赐的恩典不是出于人的行为。基督的死和复活为罪人提供了完全的赎罪,并借着个人的悔改与信心,人被称义,重生并被接纳进入神的家庭。救赎恩典要求信徒活出顺服与圣洁的生命。
(约3:16;弗2:8-10;罗5:1-2;多3:4-7;彼前1:15-16)
7. The Church
We believe in the universal Church, the body of Christ, composed of all true believers. The Church exists to glorify God by worshiping Him, preaching the Gospel, disciple believers, and serving the world in love. The local church is a visible expression of this universal body, gathering for teaching, fellowship, prayer, baptism, and the Lord’s Supper (Matt. 28:18-20; Acts 2:42-47; 1 Cor. 12:12-27; Eph. 1:22-23).
7.教会
我们相信宇宙性的教会,基督的身体,由所有真信徒组成。教会的存在为要透过敬拜、宣扬福音、栽培门徒并且以爱服事世界来荣耀神。地方教会是宇宙性教会的彰显, 为要聚集信徒进行教导,团契,祷告,洗礼和圣餐。
(太28:18-20;徒2:42-47;林前12:12-27;弗1:22-23)
8. Spiritual Realm
We believe that God created the spiritual realm of hosts of angels, among whom there were those who did not keep their holy estate and deviated from the eternal purpose of God, chief among whom is one referred to as Satan. Though Satan has temporary power in the world, Christ's death and resurrection have decisively defeated him.
(Gen. 3:1-5; Job 1:6-12; Matt. 4:1-11; Luke 10:18; Eph. 6:10f; Col. 2:15; Rev. 12:9)
8.灵界
我们相信神的创造中也包括天使在内的灵体,在当中有不服从本位而与神的永恒目的背离的,为首的被称为撒旦。虽然撒旦在这世界拥有短暂的权柄,但借着基督的死和复活已经决定性的击败了撒旦。
(创3:1-5;伯1:6-12;太4:1-11;路10:18;弗6:10-24;西2:15;启12:9)
9. Last Things
We believe in the personal return of Jesus Christ in
power and glory to judge the living and the dead. We affirm the resurrection of
the righteous and the unrighteous, eternal life in God’s presence for the
redeemed, and eternal separation from God for the unrepentant. We look forward
to the new heavens and the new earth, where righteousness dwells.
(Matt. 25:31-46; 1 Thess. 4:16-17; Rev.
20:11-15; 21:1-4).
9.末日
我们相信耶稣基督会在权能与荣耀中再来为要审判活人死人。我们确信义和不义的一同复活,蒙救赎者拥有在神面前永活的生命,不悔改的永远与神隔绝。我们期待新天新地的来到,在那里公义永存。
(太25:31-46;帖前4:16-17;启20:11-15;21:1-4)
