威斯敏斯特信條第27章
第二十七章 論聖禮
中文趙中輝版
一、聖禮是恩典之約的聖潔標記與印證1，由神直接所設立2，為要表徵基督和他的恩惠，並堅持我們在他裏面的關切3；又在屬教會的人與世界其餘的人之間設立一可見的區分4；並且按照神的話，在基督里嚴肅地服事神5。
二、在每一聖禮中，在標記與表徵之間都有一種屬靈的關係，或言聖禮上的聯合；因此一聖禮的名稱與功效可歸其他聖禮使用6。
三、在正當執行的聖禮中所表示的恩典，並非由於聖禮的本身所給與的任何效力，亦非在乎執行聖禮者的虔誠或存心7，乃在乎聖靈的工作8，和設立聖禮的話語，在此話語中含有吩咐人使用聖禮的命令，又給那配領受聖禮者得福益的應許9。
四、我們的主基督在福音中只設立了兩個聖禮，即洗禮和主餐；二者除正式受封立的牧師執行外，任何人不得執行10。
五、舊約的聖禮關於屬靈之事所表徵的，與新約的聖禮在本質上相同11。
1. 羅四11；創十七7、10。
2. 太廿八19；林前十一23。
3. 林前十16，十一25-26；加三17、27。
4. 羅十五8；出十二48；創卅四14；林前十21。
5. 羅六3-4；林前十16、21。
6. 創十七10；太廿六27-28；多三5。
7. 羅二28-29；彼前三21。
8. 太三11；林前十二13。
9. 太廿六27-28，廿八19-20。
10. 太廿八19；林前十一20、23，四1；來五4。
11. 林前十1-4，五7-8。

第二十七章 論聖禮
一．聖禮是恩典之約的聖潔標記和印證（羅4:11;創17:7，10），由上帝親自設立（太28:19；林前11:23），代表基督及其恩惠，並證實我們與祂有分（林前10:16；11:25－26；加3:17）；聖禮也將屬教會的人與世上其他的人明顯劃分（羅15:8；出12:48；創34:14），並嚴肅地要求他們在基督里照着上帝的聖言服事祂（羅6:3-4；林前10:16，21）。
二．在每一聖禮中，在標記和其所表徵者之間，都有一種屬靈的關係，或聖 禮上的聯合；因此，二者名稱和功效可以彼此相歸（創17:10；太26:27－28；多3:5）。
三． 在施行得宜的聖禮中，藉此聖禮所展示的恩典，並不是由聖禮本身的什麼權能賦與的；聖禮的功效也不依賴施行者的虔誠或心意（羅2:28-29；彼前 3:21），而是依賴聖靈的運行（太3:11；林前 12:13）和設立聖禮的道，因為這道不僅吩咐人舉行聖 禮，而且應許賜恩惠給配領受的人（太26:27，28；28:19－20）。
四． 我們的主基督在福音中所設立的聖禮只有兩個，即洗禮和聖餐：它們除由合乎聖經按立的牧師施行以外，任何人不得施行（太28:19；林前 11:20，23；4:1；來5:4）。
五．舊約的聖禮對屬靈之事所表徵的，在實質上是與新約的聖禮所表徵的相 同（林前10:1－4）。

27.1 聖禮是恩典之約的聖潔記號與印證，由上帝直接設立，為要 表徵基督和祂的恩典，並確認我們在祂裏面有分；聖禮也在屬教 會的人與其餘的世人之間，作為可見的區分；並且按照上帝的聖 道，聖禮莊嚴的使我們在基督里委身服事上帝。
27.2 在每一聖禮中，在「記號」與「記號代表的實體」之間都有 一屬靈的關係，或稱為聖禮上的聯合；因此當聖禮施行時，記號 的名稱與果效是歸屬於實體；實體的名稱與果效也是歸屬於記號。
27.3 聖禮在正確施行時所展示的恩典，並非因為聖禮本身有任何 能力。聖禮也不是倚靠施行聖禮者的敬虔或心意，而使之有效； 聖禮的有效在於倚靠聖靈的工作，和基督設立聖禮的話，這話包 括了如何施行聖禮的命令，以及給那按理領受者得恩的應許。
27.4 我們的主基督在福音中設立的聖禮，只有兩個，即洗禮和聖 餐；除了按照聖經按立的傳道人外，任何人不得執行這兩個聖 禮。
27.5 舊約的聖禮，就其所表徵與展示的屬靈實體，與新約的聖禮 在本質上相同。

CHAPTER 27 OF THE SACRAMENTS
1. Sacraments are holy signs and seals of the covenant of grace, immediately instituted by God, to represent Christ, and his benefits; and to confirm our interest in him: as also, to put a visible difference between those that belong unto the church, and the rest of the world; and solemnly to engage them to the service of God in Christ, according to his Word.
2. There is, in every sacrament, a spiritual relation, or sacramental union, between the sign and the thing signified: whence it comes to pass, that the names and effects of the one are attributed to the other.
3. The grace which is exhibited in or by the sacraments rightly used, is not conferred by any power in them; neither doth the efficacy of a sacrament depend upon the piety or intention of him that doth administer it: but upon the work of the Spirit, and the word of institution, which contains, together with a precept authorizing the use thereof, a promise of benefit to worthy receivers.
4. There be only two sacraments ordained by Christ our Lord in the Gospel; that is to say, baptism, and the Supper of the Lord: neither of which may be dispensed by any, but by a minister of the Word lawfully ordained.
5. The sacraments of the old testament, in regard of the spiritual things thereby signified and exhibited, were, for substance, the same with those of the new.

Chapter XXVII
Of the Sacraments
I. Sacraments are holy signs and seals of the covenant of grace,[1] immediately instituted by God,[2] to represent Christ and His benefits; and to confirm our interest in Him:[3] as also, to put a visible difference between those that belong unto the Church and the rest of the world;[4] and solemnly to engage them to the service of God in Christ, according to His Word.[5]
II. There is, in every sacrament, a spiritual relation, or sacramental union, between the sign and the thing signified: whence it comes to pass, that the names and effects of the one are attributed to the other.[6]
III. The grace which is exhibited in or by the sacraments rightly used, is not conferred by any power in them; neither does the efficacy of a sacrament depend upon the piety or intention of him that does administer it:[7] but upon the work of the Spirit,[8] and the word of institution, which contains, together with a precept authorizing the use thereof, a promise of benefit to worthy receivers.[9]
IV. There are only two sacraments ordained by Christ our Lord in the Gospel; that is to say, Baptism, and the Supper of the Lord: neither of which may be dispensed by any, but by a minister of the Word lawfully ordained.[10]
V. The sacraments of the Old Testament in regard to the spiritual things thereby signified and exhibited, were, for substance, the same with those of the new.[11]
證明經文
1 羅四11並且他受了割禮的記號，作他未受割禮的時候因信稱義的印證，叫他作一切未受割禮而信之人的父，使他們也算為義；創十七7我要與你並你世世代代的後裔堅立我的約，作永遠的約，是要作你和你後裔的 神。10你們所有的男子都要受割禮，這就是我與你，並你的後裔所立的約，是你們所當遵守的。
2 太廿八19所以，你們要去，使萬民作我的門徒，奉父、子、聖靈的名給他們施洗（註：或作「給他們施洗，歸於父、子、聖靈的名）。林前十一23 我當日傳給你們的，原是從主領受的，就是主耶穌被賣的那一夜，拿起餅來，
3 林前十16我們所祝福的杯，豈不是同領基督的血嗎？我們所擘開的餅，豈不是同領基督的身體嗎？；十一25-飯後，也照樣拿起杯來，說：「這杯是用我的血所立的新約。你們每逢喝的時候，要如此行，為的是記念我。」 26你們每逢吃這餅，喝這杯，是表明主的死，直等到他來。加三17我是這麼說： 神預先所立的約，不能被那四百三十年以後的律法廢掉，叫應許歸於虛空。27你們受洗歸入基督的，都是披戴基督了。
4 羅十五8我說，基督是為 神真理作了受割禮人的執事，要證實所應許列祖的話；出十二48若有外人寄居在你們中間，願向耶和華守逾越節，他所有的男子務要受割禮，然後才容他前來遵守，他也就像本地人一樣；但未受割禮的，都不可吃這羊羔。創卅四14對他們說：「我們不能把我們的妹子給沒有受割禮的人為妻，因為那是我們的羞辱。林前十21 世人憑自己的智慧，既不認識 神， 神就樂意用人所當作愚拙的道理拯救那些信的人，這就是 神的智慧了。
5 羅六3-豈不知我們這受洗歸入基督耶穌的人，是受洗歸入他的死嗎？ 4所以我們藉着洗禮歸入死，和他一同埋葬，原是叫我們一舉一動有新生的樣式，像基督藉着父的榮耀從死里復活一樣。林前十16我也給司提反家施過洗，此外給別人施洗沒有，我卻記不清。21世人憑自己的智慧，既不認識 神， 神就樂意用人所當作愚拙的道理拯救那些信的人，這就是 神的智慧了。
6 創十七10於是約書亞照着摩西對他所說的話行，和亞瑪力人爭戰。摩西、亞倫與戶珥都上了山頂。；太廿六27-又拿起杯來，祝謝了，遞給他們，說：「你們都喝這個， 28因為這是我立約的血，為多人流出來，使罪得赦。多三5他便救了我們，並不是因我們自己所行的義，乃是照他的憐憫，藉着重生的洗和聖靈的更新。
7 羅二28因為外面作猶太人的，不是真猶太人；外面肉身的割禮，也不是真割禮。 29惟有裏面作的，才是真猶太人；真割禮也是心裏的，在乎靈，不在乎儀文。這人的稱讚不是從人來的，乃是從 神來的。彼前三21 這水所表明的洗禮，現在藉着耶穌基督復活，也拯救你們；這洗禮本不在乎除掉肉體的污穢，只求在 神面前有無虧的良心。
8 太三11我是用水給你們施洗，叫你們悔改；但那在我以後來的，能力比我更大，我就是給他提鞋也不配。他要用聖靈與火給你們施洗。林前十二13 我們不拘是猶太人，是希臘人，是為奴的，是自主的，都從一位聖靈受洗，成了一個身體，飲於一位聖靈。
9太廿六27-又拿起杯來，祝謝了，遞給他們，說：「你們都喝這個， 28因為這是我立約的血，為多人流出來，使罪得赦。廿八19 所以，你們要去，使萬民作我的門徒，奉父、子、聖靈的名給他們施洗（註：或作「給他們施洗，歸於父、子、聖靈的名）。 20凡我所吩咐你們的，都教訓他們遵守，我就常與你們同在，直到世界的末了。」
10 太廿八19所以，你們要去，使萬民作我的門徒，奉父、子、聖靈的名給他們施洗（註：或作「給他們施洗，歸於父、子、聖靈的名）。 林前十一20智慧人在哪裏？文士在哪裏？這世上的辯士在哪裏？ 神豈不是叫這世上的智慧變成愚拙嗎？23我們卻是傳釘十字架的基督。在猶太人為絆腳石，在外邦人為愚拙；四1人應當以我們為基督的執事，為 神奧秘事的管家。來五4這大祭司的尊榮，沒有人自取，惟要蒙 神所召，像亞倫一樣。
11 林前十1弟兄們，我不願意你們不曉得，我們的祖宗從前都在雲下，都從海中經過， 2都在雲里、海里受洗歸了摩西， 3並且都吃了一樣的靈食， 4也都喝了一樣的靈水；所喝的，是出於隨着他們的靈磐石，那磐石就是基督。五7你們既是無酵的面，應當把舊酵除淨，好使你們成為新團；因為我們逾越節的羔羊基督，已經被殺獻祭了。 8所以我們守這節不可用舊酵，也不可用惡毒（註：或作「陰毒」）、邪惡的酵，只用誠實真正的無酵餅。。
[1] ROM 4:11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also. GEN 17:7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. 10 This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
[2] MAT 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. 1CO 11:23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread.
[3] 1CO 10:16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? 11:25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. 26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. GAL 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 3:17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
[4] ROM 15:8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers. EXO 12:48 And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof. GEN 34:14 And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us.
[5] ROM 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 1CO 10:16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? 21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
[6] GEN 17:10 This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised. MAT 26:27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. TIT 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost.
[7] ROM 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. 1PE 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us(not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
[8] MAT 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire. 1CO 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
[9] MAT 26:27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. MAT 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
[10] MAT 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. 1CO 11:20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper. 23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread. 1CO 4:1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. HEB 5:4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
[11] 1CO 10:1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat; 4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
