王志勇版
52問:在祂的複活中,基督是如何升高的?
答:基督在祂的複活中升高,在於:
(1)祂未在死亡中見朽壞,因為祂不可能被死拘禁(徒2:24,27),基督以祂受苦時同樣的身體,同樣的屬性(路24:39),但是沒有必死性,也沒有其它凡人共有的軟弱,真的與祂的靈魂聯合(羅6:9;啟1:18),祂第三天靠祂自己的權柄從死裡復活(約10:18);
(2)因此,祂宣告自己是上帝的兒子(羅1:4),滿足了上帝的公義(羅8:34),征服了死亡和死亡 權勢的執掌者(來2:14),成為活人和死人的主(羅14:9);
(3)祂作為公僕(林前15:21-22),教會的 元首(弗1:20,22-23;西 1:18),行這些事,目的是為了使他們稱義(羅4:25),在恩典中長進(弗2:1,5-6;西2:12), 支持他們抵擋仇敵(林前15:25-27),並保證他們在末日的時候從死裡復活(林前15:20)。
呂沛淵版
問:基督在祂的復活中,是如何升高的?
答:基督在祂的復活中升高,在於:
(1)祂經歷死亡而不見朽壞,因為祂原不能被死拘禁;
(2)祂復活的身體,是與祂受苦的身體同一的,具相同的基要屬性,然而此復活身體是不朽壞的,沒有今生人所共有的軟弱,與祂的靈魂真實聯合;
(3)祂以自己的大能在死後第三天復活,以此顯明自己是神的兒子;滿足了神的公義,征服了死亡以及掌死權的惡者,成為活人與死人的主;
(4)祂所作的這一切,都是以立約之代表,教會之元首的身分完成的,為要叫他們稱義,在恩典中活過來,支持他們抵擋仇敵,並保證他們在末日從死裡復活。

Q. 52. How was Christ exalted in his resurrection?
A. Christ was exalted in his resurrection, in that, not having seen corruption in death (of which it was not possible for him to be held), and having the very same body in which he suffered, with the essential properties thereof (but without mortality, and other common infirmities belonging to this life), really united to his soul, he rose again from the dead the third day by his own power; whereby he declared himself to be the Son of God, to have satisfied divine justice, to have vanquished death, and him that had power of it, and to be Lord of quick and dead: all which he did as a public person, the head of his church, for the justification, quickening in grace, support against enemies, and to assure them of their resurrection from the dead at the last day.

證明經文
徒 2:24 神卻將死的痛苦解釋了,叫他復活,因為他原不能被死拘禁。
徒 2:27 因你必不將我的靈魂撇在陰間,也不叫你的聖者見朽壞。
路 24:39 你們看我的手,我的腳,就知道實在是我了。摸我看看!魂無骨無肉,你們看,我是有的。」
羅 6:9 因為知道基督既從死里復活,就不再死,死也不再作他的主了。
啟 1:18 又是那存活的;我曾死過,現在又活了,直活到永永遠遠;並且拿著死亡和陰間的鑰匙。
約 10:18 沒有人奪我的命去,是我自己舍的。我有權柄舍了,也有權柄取回來;這是我從我父所受的命令。」
羅 1:4 按聖善的靈說,因從死里復活,以大能顯明是 神的兒子。
羅 8:34 誰能定他們的罪呢?有耶穌基督已經死了,而且從死里復活,現今在 神的右邊,也替我們祈求(「有基督云云」或作「是已經死了,而且從死里復活,現今在 神的右邊,也替我們祈求的基督耶穌嗎?」)。
來 2:14 兒女既同有血肉之體,他也照樣親自成了血肉之體,特要藉著死敗壞那掌死權的,就是魔鬼,
羅 14:9 因此基督死了,又活了,為要作死人並活人的主。
林前 15:21 死既是因一人而來,死人復活也是因一人而來。
弗 1:20-23 就是照他在基督身上所運行的大能大力,使他從死里復活,叫他在天上坐在自己的右邊,遠超過一切執政的、掌權的、有能的、主治的,和一切有名的;不但是今世的,連來世的也都超過了。又將萬有服在他的腳下,使他為教會作萬有之首。教會是他的身體,是那充滿萬有者所充滿的。
西 1:18 他也是教會全體之首,他是元始,是從死里首先復生的,使他可以在凡事上居首位。
羅 4:25 耶穌被交給人,是為我們的過犯;復活,是為叫我們稱義(或作「耶穌是為我們的過犯交付了,是為我們稱義復活了。」)。
弗 2:1 你們死在過犯罪惡之中,他叫你們活過來。
弗 2:5-6 當我們死在過犯中的時候,便叫我們與基督一同活過來(你們得救是本乎恩)。他又叫我們與基督耶穌一同復活,一同坐在天上,
西 2:12 你們既受洗與他一同埋葬,也就在此與他一同復活,都因信那叫他從死里復活 神的功用。
林前15:25-27 因為基督必要作王,等 神把一切仇敵都放在他的腳下。盡末了所毀滅的仇敵就是死。因為經上說:「 神叫萬物都服在他的腳下。」既說萬物都服了他,明顯那叫萬物服他的,不在其內了。
林前 15:20 但基督已經從死里復活,成為睡了之人初熟的果子。

王志勇版
二十八.基督的代禱
55問:基督是如何代禱的?
答:基督為我們代禱,在於:
(1)祂以我們的性情,始終不渝地出現在天父面前(來9:12,24),因著祂在地上順服與獻祭的功勞(來1:3),宣告祂的旨意是要把這功勞應用到所有的信徒身上(約3:16;17:9,20,24);
(2)回擊一切對他們的控告(羅8:33-34),為他們達 成良心的平安,儘管他們天天有失敗之處(羅5:1-2;約壹2:1-2), 仍使他們坦然無懼地來到施恩寶座前(來4:16),並使他們本人(弗1:6)和服事都蒙悅納(彼前2:5)。

約一2:1-2 我小子們哪,我將這些話寫給你們,是要叫你們不犯罪。若有人犯罪,在父那裡我們有一位中保,就是那義者耶穌基督。他為我們的罪作了挽回祭,不是單為我們的罪,也是為普天下人的罪。
來4:16 所以我們只管坦然無懼地來到施恩的寶座前,為要得憐恤,蒙恩惠,作隨時的幫助。

56問:基督將來再臨,審判世界,祂是如何 在此事中升高的?

問:那些從未聽過福音,既不認識也不相信耶穌基督的人,他們按照自然界的亮光來生活,能不能因此得救呢?

[253] Romans 10:14. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
[254] 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9. In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power. Ephesians 2:12. That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world. John 1:10-12. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.
[255] John 8:24. I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. Mark 16:16. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
[256] 1 Corinthians 1:20-24. Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
[257] John 4:22. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. Romans 9:31-32. But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone. Philippians 3:4-9. Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.
[258] Acts 4:12. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
[259] Ephesians 5:23. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.... In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them. And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

三十五.選民與基督的合一
66問:選民所享有與基督的合一是什麼?
答:選民所享有的與基督的合一,是上帝恩典的作為(弗1:22,2:6-8),他們由此雖是屬靈地、神秘地,卻是真正地、不可分離地,與他們的元首和丈夫基督聯合(林前6:17;約10:28;弗5:23,30);這是在有效的恩召中所成就的(彼前5:10;林前1:9)。

三十六.有效的恩召
67問:什麼是有效的恩召?
答:有效的恩召是上帝的大能和恩典的作為(約5:25;弗1:18-20;提後1:8-9),
(1)祂出於對其選民白白和特別的愛,並不是因為他們身上有什麼促使祂行動的東西(多3:4-5;弗2:4-5,7-9;羅9:11);
(2)在祂所悅納的日子,藉著祂的聖言和聖靈,邀請並吸引他們歸向基督耶穌(林後5:20,比較林後6:1-2;約6:44;帖後 2:13-14);
(3)救贖性地啟迪他們的心思(徒26:18;林前2:10,12),更新並大有權能地決定他們的意志(結11:19;36:26-27;約6:45),
(4)使得已經死在罪惡之中的他們變得甘心樂意,能夠自由爽快地回應祂的呼召,領受其中所顯明並傳遞的恩 典(弗2:5;腓2:13;申 30:6)。
呂沛淵版
問:「有效的恩召」是什麼?
答:「有效的恩召」是上帝的全能與恩典的作為,出自祂對選民的白白與特別的愛,並非由於他們身上有任何原因促使祂如此作;在祂悅納的時候,祂以此有效恩召,吸引他們歸向耶穌基督,這是藉著祂的聖道與聖靈所作成的。

The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places. 2 Timothy 1:8-9. Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God; Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began.

But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 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. Ephesians 2:4-5, 7-9. But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)....

(3)並不是因為他們自己有什麼,也不是因為他們作了什麼(多3:5,7;弗1:7);
(4)而是惟獨因為基督的完美的順服和完全的補償,由上帝歸算在他們的身上(羅5:17-19;羅4:6-8);
(5)且是惟獨藉著信心才能領受的(徒10:43; 加2:16;腓3:9)。

問:「稱義」是什麼?
答:稱義是神的作為,祂將白白的恩典賜給罪人,藉此祂赦免他們一切的罪,接納他們,使他們在祂面前被算為義;這並非因在他們裡面成就了什麼,或他們作了什麼,乃是唯獨因為基督的完美順服與償清罪債;神將此歸算在他們身上,並且是唯獨藉著信心領受的。

[286] Romans 3:22, 24-25. Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference.... Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God. Romans 4:5. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
[287] 2 Corinthians 5:19, 21. To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.... For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. Romans 3:22, 24-25, 27-28. Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference.... Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God.... Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
[288] Titus 3:5, 7. 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.... That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Ephesians 1:7. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace.
[289] Romans 5:17-19. For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Romans 4:6-8. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
[290] Acts 10:43. To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. Galatians 2:16. Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Philippians 3:9. And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.

71問 為什麼說稱義是上帝白白恩典的作為呢?
王志勇版
三十九.稱義與恩典
71問:為什麼說稱義是上帝白白恩典的作為呢?
答:儘管基督藉其順服和受死,確實代表那些被稱義之人,對上帝的公義, 作出了適當的、真正的、完全的補償(羅5:8-10,19);但是, 因為上帝是從一個保證人接受補償,這也是祂可以要求他們的,而且上帝確實提供了這一保證人,就是祂的獨生子(提前2:5-6;來10:10;太20:28;但 9:24,26;賽53:4-6,10-12;來7:22;羅8:32;彼前1:18- 19),把祂的義歸算在他們身上(林後5:21),使他們惟獨藉著信稱義(羅3:24-25),向他們別無 所求,這信心也是祂的恩賜(弗2:8),所以,他們的稱義是因著白白的恩典歸給他們的(弗1:7)。
呂沛淵版
問:為何「稱義」是神白白恩典的作為?
答:雖然基督藉著順服與受死,的確為我們向神獻上贖罪,這是適當,真實與完全的滿足了神公義的要求。然而,事實上:
(1)神可以定規我們要自己負責,然而神接納藉著中保代贖來滿足祂公義的要求
(2)神親自賜下這位中保,就是祂的獨生子,將祂兒子的義歸算給我們,
(3)我們得以稱義並非出於我們自己,唯獨是藉著信,連這信心也是祂所賜的;
所以,我們得以稱義,對我們而言,完全是神白白的恩典。

[291] Romans 5:8-10, 19. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.... For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
[292] 1 Timothy 2:5-6. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. Hebrews 10:10. By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Matthew 20:28. Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. Daniel 9:24, 26. Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.... And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. Isaiah 53:4-6, 10-12. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.... Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors. Hebrews 7:22. By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. Romans 8:32. He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? 1 Peter 1:18-19.

(2)只是因為信心是器皿,罪人由此接受基督和祂的義,並運用在自己的身上(約1:12;腓3:9;加2:16)。

問:信心如何使罪人在神面前得稱為義?
答:信心使罪人在神面前得稱為義,
(1)並非因為那些必與之俱來的其他恩惠,也不是因為信心所結的善行之果,也不是因為將信心的恩惠(或因之而來的行為)歸算在罪人身上,使他稱義;
(2)只是因為信心是媒介工具,罪人藉此領受並支取基督和祂的義。

Q. 73. How doth faith justify a sinner in the sight of God?
A. Faith justifies a sinner in the sight of God, not because of those other graces which do always accompany it, or of good works that are the fruits of it, nor as if the grace of faith, or any act thereof, were imputed to him for his justification; but only as it is an instrument by which he receiveth and applieth Christ and his righteousness.

(4)領受賜予他們的祂兒子的聖靈(加4:6);
(5)處於祂父般的眷顧之下(詩103:13;箴14:26;太6:32);

(1) 罪人意識到罪的危險性(結18:28,30,32;路15:17-18;何2:6-7);
(2) 認識到罪的污穢和醜陋(結36:31;賽30:22);
(3) 領悟上帝在基督裡對悔改者的憐憫(珥2:12-13);
(4) 因此為自己的罪憂傷難過(耶31:18-19);
(5) 並產生恨惡之情(林後7:11);
(6) 從而轉離一切罪,歸向上帝(徒26:18;結14:6;王上8:47-48);
(7) 並立定心志,竭力以新的順服,在各個方面與主同行(詩119:6,59,128;路1:6;王下23:25)。

(2)並且使他領悟到:悔改的罪人,在基督裡必蒙神的憐憫;
(3)因此他憂傷並恨惡自己的罪,以致他轉離一切罪惡歸向神,並且定意竭力在新生命中全然順服神,恆切與祂同行。

王志勇版
四十四.稱義與成聖的不同
77問:稱義與成聖有何不同?
答:雖然稱義與成聖不可分割地聯繫在一起(林前6:11;1:30),但它們仍有不同之處。
(1)稱義是基督的義的歸算(羅4:6,8),而成聖則是祂注入恩典,使人得以行出(結36:7);
(2)稱義使罪得赦免(羅3:24-25);成聖使罪 被征服(羅6:6,14);
(3)稱義使所有的信徒在今生一概脫離上帝的報應之怒,達於完全,使他們不再被定罪了(羅8:33-34);成聖在所有的人身上不盡相同(約壹2:12-14;來5:12-14),今生也沒有任何人能達於完全(約壹1:8,10),而是向著完全不斷長進(林後7:1;腓3:12-14)。
呂沛淵版
問:稱義與成聖有何不同?
答:成聖與稱義是密不可分的,然而兩者仍有不同:
(1)稱義,是神將基督的義歸算給我們;成聖,是神藉著聖靈將恩典融入我們裡面,使我們能操練聖潔;
(2)稱義使我們的罪得赦免;成聖使我們的罪被制伏;
(3)稱義,使所有信徒一致從神義怒刑罰中得釋放,在今生全然稱義,此後絕不再定罪;成聖,每位信徒長進的程度不一,無人在今生能達到完全,乃是不斷在聖潔上長進,漸臻完全。

Q. 77. Wherein do justification and sanctification differ?
A. Although sanctification be inseparably joined with justification, yet they differ, in that God in justification imputeth the righteousness of Christ; in sanctification his Spirit infuseth grace, and enableth to the exercise thereof; in the former, sin is pardoned; in the other, it is subdued: the one doth equally free all believers from the revenging wrath of God, and that perfectly in this life, that they never fall into condemnation; the other is neither equal in all, nor in this life perfect in any, but growing up to perfection.

[334] Romans 6:6, 14. Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.... For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

王志勇版
四十五.成聖的不完全性
78問:為何信徒的成聖在今生都不完全呢?
答:信徒的成聖在今生都不完全,這是因為他們身上各個部分仍然有罪的殘 餘,肉體的情慾依然存在,不停地與聖靈相爭;因此,他們經常為試探所擊倒,陷落到許多罪中(羅7:18,23;可14:66;加2:11-12),各種屬靈的事奉常受攔阻(來12:1),即使最好的善行,在上帝的眼中也不完美,仍有污損(賽64:6;出28:38)。
呂沛淵版
問:信徒在今生不能完全成聖,原因從何而來?
答:信徒在今生不能完全成聖,原因來自他們生命中餘留的罪,埋伏作祟,並且肉體情慾持續的與聖靈相爭;他們常受試探攻擊而犯罪跌倒。所以,他們一切的屬靈事奉,都受到阻礙;即使是最佳的善行,在神眼中仍是不完全而且是污損的。

王志勇版
四十六.真信徒得蒙保守
79問:真信徒既不完美,也被諸多的試探和罪所勝,他們會不會從蒙恩的狀態中墮落呢?
答:不會。因著
(1) 上帝的不變之愛(耶31:3);
(2) 祂按照祂自己的預旨和聖約賜給他們恆忍的力量(提後2:19;來13:20-21;撒下23:5);
(3) 使他們與基督聯合,不可分離(林前1:8-9);
(4) 基督也為他們持續地代禱(來7:25;路22:32);
(5) 聖靈和上帝的種子仍在他們心中(約壹3:9;2:27)
所以,他們既不會完全,也不會最終從蒙恩的狀態中墮落(耶32:40;約10:28),而是得蒙上帝大能的保守,由信得救(彼前1:5)。
呂沛淵版
問:因為真信徒既不完全,又被許多試探罪惡所勝,他們是不是會從蒙恩的狀態中失落?
答:因為神永不改變的愛,祂的旨意和聖約賜給他們恆久忍耐的能力,他們與基督的連合是無法分開的,基督持續地為他們代求,聖靈與神的道種住在他們心裡;所以真信徒,最終不會也完全不會從蒙恩的狀態中墮落,乃是蒙神的能力保守,藉著信心而得救到底。

四十七.得救的確信
80問:真信徒是否能夠毫無謬誤地確信他們 已經蒙恩,並由此恆忍,直到最終得救?

(1) 毋需另外的特別啟示;
(2) 藉著基於上帝應許之真實性的信心;
(3) 藉著使他們能夠分辨自己是否擁有那些所應許的與新生命相伴的美德(林前2:12;約壹 3:14,18-19,21,24;4:13,16;來6:11-12);
(4) 並與他們的靈同證他們是上帝兒女的聖靈(羅8:16),他們可以毫無謬誤地確信自己已經蒙恩,並由此恆忍,直到最終得救(約壹5:13)。

81問 所有真信徒都是一直確信自己目前已 經蒙恩,並最終得救嗎?
王志勇版
81問:所有真信徒都是一直確信自己目前已 經蒙恩,並最終得救嗎?
答:對於所有真信徒而言,
(1)蒙恩得救的確信並不是信心的本質(弗1:13);
(2)所以,在得到這一確信之前,真信徒或許要長期等候(賽50:10;詩88);
(3)即使在享有之後,這一確信仍會因著心思煩亂、各樣的罪、遭遇試探和暫時被棄而減弱或中斷(詩77:1-12;51:8,12;31:22;22:1, 歌5:2-3,6);
(4)聖靈的同在和扶持絕不會全然離開他們,必保守他們不至陷入絕望(約壹3:9;伯13:15;詩73:15,23;賽 54:7-10)。
呂沛淵版
問:所有真信徒,是否每時刻都確知,自己正在蒙恩的景況中,而且至終必得救?
答:因為蒙恩得救的確據,並非信心的本質,所以真信徒可能要等一段長時間,才會得著確據。他們在享受此確據之後,由於遭到各種身心疾病、罪惡、試探、離棄,可能使他們對此確據的感受,減少或中斷。然而,他們絕不會失去神的靈之同在與扶持,祂必保守他們免於陷入徹底絕望之中。

Q. 81. Are all true believers at all times assured of their present being in the estate of grace, and that they shall be saved?
A. Assurance of grace and salvation not being of the essence of faith, true believers may wait long before they obtain it; and, after the enjoyment thereof, may have it weakened and intermitted, through manifold distempers, sins, temptations, and desertions; yet are they never left without such a presence and support of the Spirit of God as keeps them from sinking into utter despair.

[354] Isaiah 50:10. Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God. Psalm 88:1-3, 6-7, 9-10, 13-15. O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee: Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave.... Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps. Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah.... Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee. Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah.... But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee. LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me? I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.
[355] Psalm 77:1-12. I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me. In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted. I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore? Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High. I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old. I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. Song of Solomon 5:2-3, 6. I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night. I have put off my coat; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?... I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer. Psalm 51:8, 12. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.... Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Psalm 31:22. For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. Psalm 22:1. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
[356] 1 John 3:9. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. Psalm 73:15, 23. If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.... Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand. Isaiah 54:7-10. For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee. In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer. For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee. For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.

答:這種交通是指:
(1)無形教會的成員今生得蒙與基督一同得榮的初熟的果子,因基督是他們的元首,他們是祂的肢體,所以在 祂裡面,與祂所有的榮耀有份(弗2:5-6);
(2)他們享有上帝的慈愛(羅5:,比較林後1:22), 良知的平安,聖靈裡的喜樂,和榮耀的盼望(羅5:1-2;14:17),這 些都是他們得基業的憑據;
(3)而惡人則感受到上帝復仇的憤怒,良知的恐懼,對將來審判的畏懼,這些痛苦始於今生,並在死後承受(創4:13;太27:4;來10:27;羅2:9;可 9:44)。

反之,惡人在今生所經歷的是:神公義的忿怒,良心的恐懼,害怕將來的審判;他們忍受這些痛苦始於今生,死後持續。

The members of the invisible church have communicated to them in this life the firstfruits of glory with Christ, as they are members of him their head, and so in him are interested in that glory which he is fully possessed of; and, as an earnest thereof, enjoy the sense of God's love, peace of conscience, joy in the Holy Ghost, and hope of glory; as, on the contrary, sense of God's revenging wrath, horror of conscience, and a fearful expectation of judgment, are to the wicked the beginning of their torments which they shall endure after death.

85問:既然死亡是罪的工價,而義人的罪在基督裡都蒙赦免,為什麼他們沒有脫離死亡呢?
答:義人在末日的時候就會脫離死亡,即使在死亡之時,也脫離了死亡的毒 鉤和咒詛(林前15:26,55-57; 來2:15);因此,雖然他們也死亡,但這是出於上帝的慈愛(賽57:1-2;王下 22:20),使他們完全從罪和愁苦中釋放出來(啟14:13;弗5:27),進入榮耀裡,與基督有更深的聯合(路23:43;腓1:23)。

問:雖然死是罪的工價,然而在基督裡義人所有的罪已蒙赦免,為何他們沒有蒙拯救脫離死亡呢?

(2)他們的身體即使在死亡中也與基督繼續聯合(帖前4:14),安息在墳墓裡,如同安息在床上(賽57:2),直到末日與他們的靈魂再次聯合(伯19:26-27)。
(3)而惡人的靈魂死時被拋進地獄之中,停留在痛苦和徹底的黑暗裡,他們的身體則保留在墳墓裡,如在監獄 中,直到復活和審判的大日(路16:23-24; 徒1:25;猶6-7)。

[379] Acts 24:15. And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
[380] 1 Corinthians 15:51-53. Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. John 5:28-29. Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
[381] 1 Corinthians 15:21-23, 42-44. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.... So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. Philippians 3:21. Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

王志勇版
五十四.道德律的性質
93問:道德律是什麼?
答:道德律
(1)是上帝對人類旨意的宣告,是人當向上帝和他人所盡的聖潔與公義的本分(路1:75;徒24:16);
(2)指導並約束每個人都必須親自、完全、持續地予以遵行、順服;靈魂與身體全身心地踐行(申5:1-3,31,33;路10:26-27;加 3:10;帖前5:23);
(3)遵行則有生命的應許,違背則有死亡的後果(羅10:5;加3:10,12)。
呂沛淵版
問:什麼是道德律?
答:道德律是神向人類所宣告的旨意,指引並約束每一個人都要親自來完全並持續遵從祂的旨意;這是賦予在整個人(靈魂與身體)的構造與意向中,為要使人履行他所有對神對人所當盡的聖潔仁義本分:神應許遵行者得生命,警告悖逆者必定死。

路10:26-27耶穌對他說:「律法上寫的是什麼?你念的是怎樣呢?」 他回答說:「你要盡心、盡性、盡力、盡意愛主你的 神;又要愛鄰舍如同自己。」
徒24:16 我因此自己勉勵,對 神對人,常存無虧的良心。
申5:1-3,31,33摩西將以色列眾人召了來,對他們說:「以色列人哪!我今日曉諭你們的律例、典章,你們要聽,可以學習,謹守遵行。耶和華我們的 神在何烈山與我們立約。 這約不是與我們列祖立的,乃是與我們今日在這裡存活之人立的。
至於你,可以站在我這裡,我要將一切誡命、律例、典章傳給你,你要教訓他們,使他們在我賜他們為業的地上遵行。』
耶和華你們 神所吩咐你們行的,你們都要去行,使你們可以存活得福,並使你們的日子,在所要承受的地上得以長久。」
帖前5:23 願賜平安的 神親自使你們全然成聖。又願你們的靈與魂與身子得蒙保守,在我主耶穌基督降臨的時候,完全無可指摘。
羅10:5摩西寫著說:「人若行那出於律法的義,就必因此活著。」
加3:10,12凡以行律法為本的,都是被咒詛的;因為經上記著:「凡不常照律法書上所記一切之事去行的,就被咒詛。」

[399] Deuteronomy 5:1-3, 31, 33. And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them. The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb. The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.... But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.... Ye shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess. Luke 10:26-27. He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. 1 Thessalonians 5:23.

五十五.道德律的功用
94問:墮落之後,道德律對人還有什麼作用呢?
答:墮落之後,沒有人能靠道德律臻達公義和生命(羅8:3;加2:16);但道德律仍然大有用處,不管是未重生的人,還是已重生的人,對所有的人都是如此(提前1:8)。
呂沛淵版
問:在人犯罪墮落之後,道德律還有任何功用嗎?
答:雖然在人犯罪墮落之後,沒有人可以藉著遵行道德律而稱義得生命;然而,道德律仍有極大的功用,對於全人類都有用處,對未重生者與重生者各自有其特定功用。

Galatians 2:16. Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

王志勇版
95問:道德律對所有的人有什麼用處?
答:道德律對所有的人都有用處,
(1)告訴他們上帝聖潔的屬性和旨意(利11:44-45;利20:7-8;羅7:12);
(2)告訴他們當盡的責任,並約束他們必須遵行(彌6:8;雅2:10-11);
(3)使他們知道自己沒有能力遵行,認識到自己的性情、心靈和生命都受到了罪的污染(詩19:11-12;羅3:20;7:7);
(4)使他們意識到自己的罪和痛苦,從而謙卑自己(羅3:9,23);
(5)由此幫助他們更加清楚地認識到對基督的需要(加3:21-22),對基督的完全順服的需要(羅10:4)。

95問:道德律對於全人類的功用是什麼?
答:道德律對全人類的功用是:
(1)使人們知道神的聖潔屬性與旨意,以及他們的責任,約束他們要照著遵行;
(2)使人們知道自己沒有能力遵守道德律,認清自己的心性與生命已經被罪惡污染;
(3)使他們謙卑承認自己的罪與苦況,因此幫助他們更清楚看見,自己需要基督,需要倚靠基督的完全順服

利11:44-45;我是耶和華你們的 神,所以你們要成為聖潔,因為我是聖潔的。你們也不可在地上的爬物污穢自己。我是把你們從埃及地領出來的耶和華,要作你們的 神,所以你們要聖潔,因為我是聖潔的。」
利20:7-8所以你們要自潔成聖,因為我是耶和華你們的 神。你們要謹守遵行我的律例;我是叫你們成聖的耶和華。
加3:21-22 這樣,律法是與 神的應許反對嗎?斷乎不是!若曾傳一個能叫人得生的律法,義就誠然本乎律法了。 加 3:22 但聖經把眾人都圈在罪里,使所應許的福因信耶穌基督,歸給那信的人。
彌6:8;世人哪!耶和華已指示你何為善,他向你所要的是什麼呢?只要你行公義,好憐憫,存謙卑的心,與你的 神同行。
雅2:10-11 因為凡遵守全律法的,只在一條上跌倒,他就是犯了眾條。原來那說不可姦淫的,也說不可殺人;你就是不姦淫,卻殺人,仍是成了犯律法的。
詩19:11-12; 況且你的僕人因此受警戒,守著這些便有大賞。 誰能知道自己的錯失呢?願你赦免我隱而未現的過錯。
羅3:9,20,23這卻怎麼樣呢?我們比他們強嗎?決不是的!因我們已經證明:猶太人和希臘人都在罪惡之下。 所以凡有血氣的,沒有一個因行律法能在 神面前稱義,因為律法本是叫人知罪。
因為世人都犯了罪,虧缺了 神的榮耀;
羅7:7這樣,我們可說什麼呢?律法是罪嗎?斷乎不是!只是非因律法,我就不知何為罪。非律法說,「不可起貪心」,我就不知何為貪心。
羅7:12這樣看來,律法是聖潔的,誡命也是聖潔、公義、良善的。
羅10:4律法的總結就是基督,使凡信他的都得著義。

For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy. Leviticus 20:7-8. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God. And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the LORD which sanctify you. Romans 8:12. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
[405] Micah 6:8. He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? James 2:10-11. For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

[408] Galatians 3:21-22. Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
[409] Romans 10:4. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

96問:對未重生的人,道德律有什麼特別的用處?
答:對未重生的人,道德律的用處,是在於:
(1)喚醒他們的良知,使他們逃離將來的憤怒(提前1:9-10);
(2)促使他們歸向基督(加3:24);
(3)如果他們繼續處於罪境之中,繼續行罪路,就使他們無可推諉(羅1:20,比較羅2:15);
(4)並處於罪所帶來的咒詛之下(加3:10)。

加3:24 這樣,律法是我們訓蒙的師傅,引我們到基督那裡,使我們因信稱義。
羅1:20自從造天地以來, 神的永能和神性是明明可知的,雖是眼不能見,但借著所造之物,就可以曉得,叫人無可推諉。

97問:對已重生的人,道德律有什麼特別的用處?
答:對於已經重生、歸信基督之人,雖然道德律對他們已經不再是行為之約(羅6:14;羅7:4,6;加4:4-5),他們既不因之稱義(羅3:20),也不因之定罪(加5:23;羅8:1);但是,除了與所有人共同的用處之外,道德律還有特別的用處,就在於向他們顯明:
(1)因為基督為他們的益處成全了道德律,替他們承受了咒詛,所以他們對基督有何等的虧欠(羅7:24-25;加3:13-14;羅8:3-4);
(2)由此激發他們更有感恩之心,並且使他們更加謹守,以道德律為順服的標準加以遵行,從而表達出感恩之心(羅7:22;12:2;多 2:11-14)。

問:道德律對於已重生者,有何特別功用?
答:對於已經重生,相信基督的人,道德律對他們不再是「行為之約」了,他們不再按照道德律來稱義或定罪。然而,道德律除了對於所有人仍有普遍功用之外;對已重生者,道德律有特別的功用:
(1)向他們顯示主基督與他們是何等緊密的連結,因為祂為他們的益處,成全了道德律,代替他們承擔了咒詛;
(2)藉此,促使他們更加感恩;也使他們存感恩之心,更加謹慎來遵行道德律,作為成聖生活的指南。

A. Although they that are regenerate, and believe in Christ, be delivered from the moral law as a covenant of works, so as thereby they are neither justified nor condemned; yet besides the general uses thereof common to them with all men, it is of special use, to show them how much they are bound to Christ for his fulfilling it, and enduring the curse thereof in their stead, and for their good; and thereby to provoke them to more thankfulness, and to express the same in their greater care to conform themselves thereunto as the rule of their obedience.

羅3:20 所以凡有血氣的,沒有一個因行律法能在 神面前稱義,因為律法本是叫人知罪。
羅6:14罪必不能作你們的主,因你們不在律法之下,乃在恩典之下。
羅7:4,6我的弟兄們,這樣說來,你們藉著基督的身體,在律法上也是死了,叫你們歸於別人,就是歸於那從死里復活的,叫我們結果子給 神。 但我們既然在捆我們的律法上死了,現今就脫離了律法,叫我們服事主,要按著心靈的新樣,不按著儀文的舊樣(「心靈」或作「聖靈」)。

羅7:24-25我真是苦啊!誰能救我脫離這取死的身體呢? 感謝 神!靠著我們的主耶穌基督就能脫離了。這樣看來,我以內心順服 神的律,我肉體卻順服罪的律了。
羅8:1 如今那些在基督耶穌里的,就不定罪了。
羅8:3-4 律法既因肉體軟弱,有所不能行的, 神就差遣自己的兒子成為罪身的形狀,作了贖罪祭,在肉體中定了罪案,使律法的義成就在我們這不隨從肉體,只隨從聖靈的人身上。

加4:4-5 及至時候滿足, 神就差遣他的兒子為女子所生,且生在律法以下, 加 4:5 要把律法以下的人贖出來,叫我們得著兒子的名分。
加5:23溫柔、節制。這樣的事,沒有律法禁止。

For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
[418] Luke 1:68-69, 74-75. Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people, And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David.... That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear, In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life. Colossians 1:12-14. Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.
[419] Romans 7:22. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man. Romans 12:2. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Titus 2:11-14. For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me in the top of the mount. And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.

王志勇版
五十七.理解十誡的規則
99問:要正確理解十誡,應當遵守什麼規 則?
答:要正確理解十誡,以下的規則應予遵守:
(1)律法是全備的,約束每個 人都必須完全遵守,以全人完全合乎其中之義,完全順服,直到永遠;因此,律法要求人完備地履行每一當盡的責任,即使最微小的犯罪也予以禁止(詩19:7;雅2:10;太5:21-22)。
(2)律法是屬靈的,關涉到悟 性、意志、情感以及靈魂的其它所有能力,涵蓋言語、行為和姿態(羅7:14;申6:5;太22:37-39,比較太5:21-22,27-28,33-34,37-39,43-44)。
(3)同樣的事物,在不同的方 面,在不同的誡命中有所要求或禁止(西3:5;摩8:5;箴1:19;提前6:10)。
(4)吩咐某一責任,就是禁止 與此相反的罪行(賽58:13; 申6:13,比較太4:9-10;15:4-6);禁止人 犯一種罪,就是命令人去完成與該罪行相反的責任(太5:21-25;弗4:28)。 同樣,何處附加了應許,就包括了與之相反的警告(出20:12;箴30:17); 何處附加了警告,就包括了與之相反的應許(耶18:7-8;出20:7,比較詩15:1,4-5;詩24:4-5)。
(5)凡上帝所禁止的,絕不要 去行(伯13:7-8; 羅3:8;伯36:21;來11:25);凡上帝所吩咐 的,則始終是我們的責任(申4:8-9);但是,並不是在所有的時間,都要完成每一個責任(太12:7)。
(6)在一個罪或責任之下,所 有同類的罪也受到禁止,同類的責任也在所吩咐的範圍之內;連同所有的原因、途徑、場合、表現、挑釁都在內(太5:21-22,27-28;15:4-6;來 10:24-25;帖前5:22;猶23;加5:26;西3:21)。
(7)凡向我們所禁止或所吩咐 的,我們都有責任根據自己的身份地位,並根據他人在其身份地位上當盡的本分,努力使他人避免或遵行(出20:10;利19:17;創18:19;書24:15; 申6:6-7)。
(8)凡向他人所吩咐的,我們 都有責任根據我們的地位和職分,幫助他們實現(林後1:24);凡禁止他們去行的,我們也要注意不要與他們有份(提前5:22;弗5:11)。
呂沛淵版
99 問:為要正確理解十誡,必須遵從哪些規則?
答:為要正確理解十誡,必須遵從下列規則:
1. 律法是全備的:每個人都有義務以全人來完全遵從,活出義的生活,永遠完全順服;因此律法要求以最完美的標準來克盡職守,以最高的要求嚴禁罪惡。
2. 律法是屬靈的:其範圍涉及人的悟性,意志,情感,與心靈其他一切功能;也包括言語,行為,態度。
3. 十誡論到同一事情,會重複出現在幾個誡命中,乃是按照其不同層面來吩咐,有的是要求遵行,有的是禁止。
4. 十誡吩咐一項正面責任時,同時禁止負面違反此責任的罪;禁止人犯負面的罪時,同時吩咐與此罪相反的正面責任。所以,十誡中應許遵行者得福時,即涵蓋違背者必遭對應的刑罰;警告違背者必遭刑罰時,即涵蓋遵行者必得對應的恩福。
5. 神所禁止的,任何時候都不可作;祂所吩咐的,永是我們的責任;但每個責任並非是每時刻都要行。
6. 論到一項罪惡或責任時,同類的罪惡也遭到禁止,同類的責任也在命令的範圍之內;這包括了彼此相關的,所有原因,方式,場合,表現,以及導致的誘因。
7. 十誡禁止或吩咐我們作的,我們有義務在處境中,盡全力去使他人在其處境中盡責任,也避免觸犯所禁止的,或遵行所吩咐的;
8. 十誡吩咐他人所遵行的,我們根據處境與呼召,有義務幫助他們去遵行;並且留心不要涉入十誡禁止他人所作的。

Q. 99. What rules are to be observed for the right understanding of the Ten Commandments?

8. That in what is commanded to others, we are bound, according to our places and callings, to be helpful to them; and to take heed of partaking with others in what is forbidden them.

And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Matthew 5:21-22, 27-28, 33-34, 37-39, 43-44. Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.... Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.... Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths: But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne.... But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.... Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you.
[424] Colossians 3:5. Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry. Amos 8:5. Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit? Proverbs 1:19. So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof. 1 Timothy 6:10. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
[425] Isaiah 58:13. If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words. Deuteronomy 6:13. Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name. Matthew 4:9-10. And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. Matthew 15:4-6. For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
[426] Matthew 5:21-25. Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. Ephesians 4:28. Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
[427] Exodus 20:12. Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. Proverbs 30:17. The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.
[428] Jeremiah 18:7-8. At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it; If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them. Exodus 20:7. Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Psalm 15:1, 4-5. LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?... In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not. He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved. Psalm 24:4-5. He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
[429] Job 13:7-8. Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him? Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God? Romans 3:8. And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just. Job 36:21. Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction. Hebrews 11:25. Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.
[430] Deuteronomy 4:8-9. And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day? Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons.
[431] Matthew 12:7. But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
[432] Matthew 5:21-22, 27-28. Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.... Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 15:4-6. For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. Hebrews 10:24-25. And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. 1 Thessalonians 5:22. Abstain from all appearance of evil. Jude 23. And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. Galatians 5:26. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another. Colossians 3:21. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

Leviticus 19:17. Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him. Genesis 18:19. For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him. Joshua 14:15. And the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba; which Arba was a great man among the Anakims. And the land had rest from war. Deuteronomy 6:6-7. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
[434] 2 Corinthians 1:24. Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
[435] 1 Timothy 5:22. Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure. Ephesians 5:11. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

52問:在祂的複活中,基督是如何升高的?
答:基督在祂的複活中升高,在於:

(2)因此,祂宣告自己是上帝的兒子(羅1:4),滿足了上帝的公義(羅8:34),征服了死亡和死亡 權勢的執掌者(來2:14),成為活人和死人的主(羅14:9);
(3)祂作為公僕(林前15:21-22),教會的 元首(弗1:20,22-23;西 1:18),行這些事,目的是為了使他們稱義(羅4:25),在恩典中長進(弗2:1,5-6;西2:12), 支持他們抵擋仇敵(林前15:25-27),並保證他們在末日的時候從死裡復活(林前15:20)。
呂沛淵版
問:基督在祂的復活中,是如何升高的?
答:基督在祂的復活中升高,在於:
(1)祂經歷死亡而不見朽壞,因為祂原不能被死拘禁;
(2)祂復活的身體,是與祂受苦的身體同一的,具相同的基要屬性,然而此復活身體是不朽壞的,沒有今生人所共有的軟弱,與祂的靈魂真實聯合;
(3)祂以自己的大能在死後第三天復活,以此顯明自己是神的兒子;滿足了神的公義,征服了死亡以及掌死權的惡者,成為活人與死人的主;
(4)祂所作的這一切,都是以立約之代表,教會之元首的身分完成的,為要叫他們稱義,在恩典中活過來,支持他們抵擋仇敵,並保證他們在末日從死裡復活。

Q. 52. How was Christ exalted in his resurrection?
A. Christ was exalted in his resurrection, in that, not having seen corruption in death (of which it was not possible for him to be held), and having the very same body in which he suffered, with the essential properties thereof (but without mortality, and other common infirmities belonging to this life), really united to his soul, he rose again from the dead the third day by his own power; whereby he declared himself to be the Son of God, to have satisfied divine justice, to have vanquished death, and him that had power of it, and to be Lord of quick and dead: all which he did as a public person, the head of his church, for the justification, quickening in grace, support against enemies, and to assure them of their resurrection from the dead at the last day.

西 2:12 你們既受洗與他一同埋葬,也就在此與他一同復活,都因信那叫他從死里復活 神的功用。
林前15:25-27 因為基督必要作王,等 神把一切仇敵都放在他的腳下。盡末了所毀滅的仇敵就是死。因為經上說:「 神叫萬物都服在他的腳下。」既說萬物都服了他,明顯那叫萬物服他的,不在其內了。
林前 15:20 但基督已經從死里復活,成為睡了之人初熟的果子。

答:那些從未聽過福音(羅10:14),因此既不認識基督耶穌(帖後1:8-9;弗2:12;約1:10-12),也不相信祂的人,即使他們殷勤地根據自然之光(林前1:20-24),或他們所認信的宗教誡命,來調整自己的生活(約4:22;羅9:31-32;腓3:4-9),也不會得救(約8:24;可16:16); 耶穌之外,別無救贖(徒4:12),惟獨祂是教會全體的救主(弗5:23)。

問:那些從未聽過福音,既不認識也不相信耶穌基督的人,他們按照自然界的亮光來生活,能不能因此得救呢?
答:那些從未聽過福音,既不認識也不相信耶穌基督的人,是不能得救的;即使他們是照著自然界的亮光,或自己所宣稱的宗教法則,以前所未有的殷勤,來調整他們的生活,也是不能。救恩是唯獨在基督裡,除祂以外別無拯救,祂只是教會的救主,教會是祂的身體。

Q. 60. Can they who have never heard the gospel, and so know not Jesus Christ, nor believe in him, be saved by their living according to the light of nature?
A. They who, having never heard the gospel, know not Jesus Christ, and believe not in him, cannot be saved, be they never so diligent to frame their lives according to the light of nature, or the laws of that religion which they profess; neither is there salvation in any other, but in Christ alone, who is the Savior only of his body the church.

羅10:14 然而人未曾信他,怎能求他呢?未曾聽見他,怎能信他呢?沒有傳道的,怎能聽見呢?
帖後1:8-9 要報應那不認識 神和那不聽從我主耶穌福音的人。他們要受刑罰,就是永遠沉淪,離開主的面和他權能的榮光。
弗2:12 那時,你們與基督無關,在以色列國民以外,在所應許的諸約上是局外人,並且活在世上沒有指望,沒有 神。
約1:10-12 他在世界,世界也是藉著他造的,世界卻不認識他。他到自己的地方來,自己的人倒不接待他。凡接待他的,就是信他名的人,他就賜他們權柄,作 神的兒女。
林前1:20-24 智慧人在哪裡?文士在哪裡?這世上的辯士在哪裡? 神豈不是叫這世上的智慧變成愚拙嗎?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。猶太人是要神跡,希臘人是求智慧;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;但在那蒙召的,無論是猶太人、希臘人,基督總為 神的能力, 神的智慧。
約4:22 你們所拜的,你們不知道;我們所拜的,我們知道,因為救恩是從猶太人出來的。
羅9:31-32 但以色列人追求律法的義,反得不著律法的義。這是什麼緣故呢?是因為他們不憑著信心求,只憑著行為求,他們正跌在那絆腳石上。
腓3:4-9 其實我也可以靠肉體;若是別人想他可以靠肉體,我更可以靠著了。我第八天受割禮,我是以色列族、便雅憫支派的人,是希伯來人所生的希伯來人。就律法說,我是法利賽人;就熱心說,我是逼迫教會的;就律法上的義說,我是無可指摘的。只是我先前以為與我有益的,我現在因基督都當作有損的。不但如此,我也將萬事當作有損的,因我以認識我主基督耶穌為至寶。我為他已經丟棄萬事,看作糞土,為要得著基督;並且得以在他裡面,不是有自己因律法而得的義,乃是有信基督的義,就是因信 神而來的義
約8:24 所以我對你們說,你們要死在罪中,你們若不信我是基督,必要死在罪中。
可16:16 信而受洗的必然得救,不信的必被定罪。
徒4:12 除他以外,別無拯救;因為在天下人間,沒有賜下別的名,我們可以靠著得救。
弗5:23 因為丈夫是妻子的頭,如同基督是教會的頭;他又是教會全體的救主。

In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power. Ephesians 2:12. That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world. John 1:10-12. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.
[255] John 8:24. I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. Mark 16:16. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
[256] 1 Corinthians 1:20-24. Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

For they stumbled at that stumblingstone. Philippians 3:4-9. Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.
[258] Acts 4:12. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
[259] Ephesians 5:23. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

三十六.有效的恩召
67問:什麼是有效的恩召?
答:有效的恩召是上帝的大能和恩典的作為(約5:25;弗1:18-20;提後1:8-9),
(1)祂出於對其選民白白和特別的愛,並不是因為他們身上有什麼促使祂行動的東西(多3:4-5;弗2:4-5,7-9;羅9:11);
(2)在祂所悅納的日子,藉著祂的聖言和聖靈,邀請並吸引他們歸向基督耶穌(林後5:20,比較林後6:1-2;約6:44;帖後 2:13-14);
(3)救贖性地啟迪他們的心思(徒26:18;林前2:10,12),更新並大有權能地決定他們的意志(結11:19;36:26-27;約6:45),
(4)使得已經死在罪惡之中的他們變得甘心樂意,能夠自由爽快地回應祂的呼召,領受其中所顯明並傳遞的恩 典(弗2:5;腓2:13;申 30:6)。
呂沛淵版
問:「有效的恩召」是什麼?
答:「有效的恩召」是上帝的全能與恩典的作為,出自祂對選民的白白與特別的愛,並非由於他們身上有任何原因促使祂如此作;在祂悅納的時候,祂以此有效恩召,吸引他們歸向耶穌基督,這是藉著祂的聖道與聖靈所作成的。

三十八.稱義
70問:稱義是什麼?
答:
(1)稱義是上帝的作為, 祂白白地把恩典賜予罪人(羅3:22,24-25;4:5);
(2)由此赦免他們所有的罪,接納他們,並在祂的眼中算他們為義(林後5:19,21;羅3:22,24-25,27-28);
(3)並不是因為他們自己有什麼,也不是因為他們作了什麼(多3:5,7;弗1:7);
(4)而是惟獨因為基督的完美的順服和完全的補償,由上帝歸算在他們的身上(羅5:17-19;羅4:6-8);
(5)且是惟獨藉著信心才能領受的(徒10:43; 加2:16;腓3:9)。

問:「稱義」是什麼?
答:稱義是神的作為,祂將白白的恩典賜給罪人,藉此祂赦免他們一切的罪,接納他們,使他們在祂面前被算為義;這並非因在他們裡面成就了什麼,或他們作了什麼,乃是唯獨因為基督的完美順服與償清罪債;神將此歸算在他們身上,並且是唯獨藉著信心領受的。

[286] Romans 3:22, 24-25. Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference.... Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God. Romans 4:5. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
[287] 2 Corinthians 5:19, 21. To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.... For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. Romans 3:22, 24-25, 27-28. Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference.... Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God.... Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
[288] Titus 3:5, 7. 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.... That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Ephesians 1:7. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace.
[289] Romans 5:17-19. For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Romans 4:6-8. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

三十九.稱義與恩典
71問:為什麼說稱義是上帝白白恩典的作為呢?
答:儘管基督藉其順服和受死,確實代表那些被稱義之人,對上帝的公義, 作出了適當的、真正的、完全的補償(羅5:8-10,19);但是, 因為上帝是從一個保證人接受補償,這也是祂可以要求他們的,而且上帝確實提供了這一保證人,就是祂的獨生子(提前2:5-6;來10:10;太20:28;但 9:24,26;賽53:4-6,10-12;來7:22;羅8:32;彼前1:18- 19),把祂的義歸算在他們身上(林後5:21),使他們惟獨藉著信稱義(羅3:24-25),向他們別無 所求,這信心也是祂的恩賜(弗2:8),所以,他們的稱義是因著白白的恩典歸給他們的(弗1:7)。
呂沛淵版
問:為何「稱義」是神白白恩典的作為?
答:雖然基督藉著順服與受死,的確為我們向神獻上贖罪,這是適當,真實與完全的滿足了神公義的要求。然而,事實上:
(1)神可以定規我們要自己負責,然而神接納藉著中保代贖來滿足祂公義的要求
(2)神親自賜下這位中保,就是祂的獨生子,將祂兒子的義歸算給我們,
(3)我們得以稱義並非出於我們自己,唯獨是藉著信,連這信心也是祂所賜的;
所以,我們得以稱義,對我們而言,完全是神白白的恩典。

For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.... Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

答:在上帝的眼中,信心使罪人稱義,
(1)絕不是因為隨之而來的其它美德,或信心所結的善行的果子(加3:11;羅3:28),也不是說信心這一美德、或信心的行為可算為他的義(羅4:5,比較羅10:10);
(2)只是因為信心是器皿,罪人由此接受基督和祂的義,並運用在自己的身上(約1:12;腓3:9;加2:16)。

問:信心如何使罪人在神面前得稱為義?
答:信心使罪人在神面前得稱為義,
(1)並非因為那些必與之俱來的其他恩惠,也不是因為信心所結的善行之果,也不是因為將信心的恩惠(或因之而來的行為)歸算在罪人身上,使他稱義;
(2)只是因為信心是媒介工具,罪人藉此領受並支取基督和祂的義。

Q. 73. How doth faith justify a sinner in the sight of God?
A. Faith justifies a sinner in the sight of God, not because of those other graces which do always accompany it, or of good works that are the fruits of it, nor as if the grace of faith, or any act thereof, were imputed to him for his justification; but only as it is an instrument by which he receiveth and applieth Christ and his righteousness.

Therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and make a wall, that she shall not find her paths.

[326] Jeremiah 31:18-19.

Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.
[327] 2 Corinthians 7:11. For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.

77問 稱義與成聖有何不同?
王志勇版
四十四.稱義與成聖的不同
77問:稱義與成聖有何不同?
答:雖然稱義與成聖不可分割地聯繫在一起(林前6:11;1:30),但它們仍有不同之處。
(1)稱義是基督的義的歸算(羅4:6,8),而成聖則是祂注入恩典,使人得以行出(結36:7);
(2)稱義使罪得赦免(羅3:24-25);成聖使罪 被征服(羅6:6,14);
(3)稱義使所有的信徒在今生一概脫離上帝的報應之怒,達於完全,使他們不再被定罪了(羅8:33-34);成聖在所有的人身上不盡相同(約壹2:12-14;來5:12-14),今生也沒有任何人能達於完全(約壹1:8,10),而是向著完全不斷長進(林後7:1;腓3:12-14)。
呂沛淵版
問:稱義與成聖有何不同?
答:成聖與稱義是密不可分的,然而兩者仍有不同:
(1)稱義,是神將基督的義歸算給我們;成聖,是神藉著聖靈將恩典融入我們裡面,使我們能操練聖潔;
(2)稱義使我們的罪得赦免;成聖使我們的罪被制伏;
(3)稱義,使所有信徒一致從神義怒刑罰中得釋放,在今生全然稱義,此後絕不再定罪;成聖,每位信徒長進的程度不一,無人在今生能達到完全,乃是不斷在聖潔上長進,漸臻完全。

Q. 77. Wherein do justification and sanctification differ?
A. Although sanctification be inseparably joined with justification, yet they differ, in that God in justification imputeth the righteousness of Christ; in sanctification his Spirit infuseth grace, and enableth to the exercise thereof; in the former, sin is pardoned; in the other, it is subdued: the one doth equally free all believers from the revenging wrath of God, and that perfectly in this life, that they never fall into condemnation; the other is neither equal in all, nor in this life perfect in any, but growing up to perfection.

81問 所有真信徒都是一直確信自己目前已 經蒙恩,並最終得救嗎?
王志勇版
81問:所有真信徒都是一直確信自己目前已 經蒙恩,並最終得救嗎?
答:對於所有真信徒而言,
(1)蒙恩得救的確信並不是信心的本質(弗1:13);
(2)所以,在得到這一確信之前,真信徒或許要長期等候(賽50:10;詩88);
(3)即使在享有之後,這一確信仍會因著心思煩亂、各樣的罪、遭遇試探和暫時被棄而減弱或中斷(詩77:1-12;51:8,12;31:22;22:1, 歌5:2-3,6);
(4)聖靈的同在和扶持絕不會全然離開他們,必保守他們不至陷入絕望(約壹3:9;伯13:15;詩73:15,23;賽 54:7-10)。
呂沛淵版
問:所有真信徒,是否每時刻都確知,自己正在蒙恩的景況中,而且至終必得救?
答:因為蒙恩得救的確據,並非信心的本質,所以真信徒可能要等一段長時間,才會得著確據。他們在享受此確據之後,由於遭到各種身心疾病、罪惡、試探、離棄,可能使他們對此確據的感受,減少或中斷。然而,他們絕不會失去神的靈之同在與扶持,祂必保守他們免於陷入徹底絕望之中。

Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God. Psalm 88:1-3, 6-7, 9-10, 13-15. O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee: Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave.... Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps. Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me with all thy waves. Selah.... Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee. Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah.... But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee. LORD, why castest thou off my soul? why hidest thou thy face from me? I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.
[355] Psalm 77:1-12. I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me. In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted. I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore? Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High. I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old. I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. Song of Solomon 5:2-3, 6. I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night. I have put off my coat; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?... I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer. Psalm 51:8, 12. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.... Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Psalm 31:22. For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. Psalm 22:1. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.... Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand. Isaiah 54:7-10. For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee. In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer. For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee. For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.

答:義人將在末日蒙拯救脫離死亡本身;即使他們在死時,也蒙拯救脫離罪的毒鉤與咒詛;所以,雖然他們會死,然而這是出於神的愛,完全釋放他們脫離罪與痛苦,使他們在那時進入榮耀裡,能與基督更深的交通。

Q. 85. Death being the wages of sin, why are not the righteous delivered from death, seeing all their sins are forgiven in Christ?
A. The righteous shall be delivered from death itself at the last day, and even in death are delivered from the sting and curse of it; so that, although they die, yet it is out of God's love, to free them perfectly from sin and misery, and to make them capable of further communion with Christ in glory, which they then enter upon.

Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God. And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the LORD which sanctify you. Romans 8:12. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
[407] Romans 3:9, 23. What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin.... For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.
[408] Galatians 3:21-22. Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
[409] Romans 10:4. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

97問:對已重生的人,道德律有什麼特別的用處?
答:對於已經重生、歸信基督之人,雖然道德律對他們已經不再是行為之約(羅6:14;羅7:4,6;加4:4-5),他們既不因之稱義(羅3:20),也不因之定罪(加5:23;羅8:1);但是,除了與所有人共同的用處之外,道德律還有特別的用處,就在於向他們顯明:
(1)因為基督為他們的益處成全了道德律,替他們承受了咒詛,所以他們對基督有何等的虧欠(羅7:24-25;加3:13-14;羅8:3-4);
(2)由此激發他們更有感恩之心,並且使他們更加謹守,以道德律為順服的標準加以遵行,從而表達出感恩之心(羅7:22;12:2;多 2:11-14)。

(1)向他們顯示主基督與他們是何等緊密的連結,因為祂為他們的益處,成全了道德律,代替他們承擔了咒詛;
(2)藉此,促使他們更加感恩;也使他們存感恩之心,更加謹慎來遵行道德律,作為成聖生活的指南。

99問 要正確理解十誡,應當遵守什麼規則?
王志勇版
五十七.理解十誡的規則
99問:要正確理解十誡,應當遵守什麼規 則?
答:要正確理解十誡,以下的規則應予遵守:
(1)律法是全備的,約束每個 人都必須完全遵守,以全人完全合乎其中之義,完全順服,直到永遠;因此,律法要求人完備地履行每一當盡的責任,即使最微小的犯罪也予以禁止(詩19:7;雅2:10;太5:21-22)。
(2)律法是屬靈的,關涉到悟 性、意志、情感以及靈魂的其它所有能力,涵蓋言語、行為和姿態(羅7:14;申6:5;太22:37-39,比較太5:21-22,27-28,33-34,37-39,43-44)。
(3)同樣的事物,在不同的方 面,在不同的誡命中有所要求或禁止(西3:5;摩8:5;箴1:19;提前6:10)。
(4)吩咐某一責任,就是禁止 與此相反的罪行(賽58:13; 申6:13,比較太4:9-10;15:4-6);禁止人 犯一種罪,就是命令人去完成與該罪行相反的責任(太5:21-25;弗4:28)。 同樣,何處附加了應許,就包括了與之相反的警告(出20:12;箴30:17); 何處附加了警告,就包括了與之相反的應許(耶18:7-8;出20:7,比較詩15:1,4-5;詩24:4-5)。
(5)凡上帝所禁止的,絕不要 去行(伯13:7-8; 羅3:8;伯36:21;來11:25);凡上帝所吩咐 的,則始終是我們的責任(申4:8-9);但是,並不是在所有的時間,都要完成每一個責任(太12:7)。
(6)在一個罪或責任之下,所 有同類的罪也受到禁止,同類的責任也在所吩咐的範圍之內;連同所有的原因、途徑、場合、表現、挑釁都在內(太5:21-22,27-28;15:4-6;來 10:24-25;帖前5:22;猶23;加5:26;西3:21)。
(7)凡向我們所禁止或所吩咐 的,我們都有責任根據自己的身份地位,並根據他人在其身份地位上當盡的本分,努力使他人避免或遵行(出20:10;利19:17;創18:19;書24:15; 申6:6-7)。
(8)凡向他人所吩咐的,我們 都有責任根據我們的地位和職分,幫助他們實現(林後1:24);凡禁止他們去行的,我們也要注意不要與他們有份(提前5:22;弗5:11)。
呂沛淵版
99 問:為要正確理解十誡,必須遵從哪些規則?
答:為要正確理解十誡,必須遵從下列規則:
1. 律法是全備的:每個人都有義務以全人來完全遵從,活出義的生活,永遠完全順服;因此律法要求以最完美的標準來克盡職守,以最高的要求嚴禁罪惡。
2. 律法是屬靈的:其範圍涉及人的悟性,意志,情感,與心靈其他一切功能;也包括言語,行為,態度。
3. 十誡論到同一事情,會重複出現在幾個誡命中,乃是按照其不同層面來吩咐,有的是要求遵行,有的是禁止。
4. 十誡吩咐一項正面責任時,同時禁止負面違反此責任的罪;禁止人犯負面的罪時,同時吩咐與此罪相反的正面責任。所以,十誡中應許遵行者得福時,即涵蓋違背者必遭對應的刑罰;警告違背者必遭刑罰時,即涵蓋遵行者必得對應的恩福。
5. 神所禁止的,任何時候都不可作;祂所吩咐的,永是我們的責任;但每個責任並非是每時刻都要行。
6. 論到一項罪惡或責任時,同類的罪惡也遭到禁止,同類的責任也在命令的範圍之內;這包括了彼此相關的,所有原因,方式,場合,表現,以及導致的誘因。
7. 十誡禁止或吩咐我們作的,我們有義務在處境中,盡全力去使他人在其處境中盡責任,也避免觸犯所禁止的,或遵行所吩咐的;
8. 十誡吩咐他人所遵行的,我們根據處境與呼召,有義務幫助他們去遵行;並且留心不要涉入十誡禁止他人所作的。

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Matthew 5:21-22, 27-28, 33-34, 37-39, 43-44. Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.... Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.... Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths: But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne.... But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.... Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you.
[424] Colossians 3:5. Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry. Amos 8:5.

For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
[425] Isaiah 58:13.

For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
[426] Matthew 5:21-25.

Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. Ephesians 4:28. Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. Hebrews 10:24-25.
