Instead of using "going to hell", I'll change that phrase to "Am I still a Christian", for the meaning is practically synonymous. One does not cease to be Christian nor proven to be a fake/non-Christian, if one does not attend … Continue reading →

C = Christianity, A = All other religions, non-religion religions, and so on. The common answer is that C is of grace; while A is always based on works. I say, C starts with where you differ, not what you … Continue reading →

v. 5-7 Thou has put gladness in my heart... Trusting God is called into question. Pascal's Wager tested by Libertarians: But if God is not real, then we would have wasted our time devoting to a presumed God. The answer … Continue reading →

The title: Respecting other faiths doesn't mean compromising your own, immediately made "Christian Today" my first guess, instead of "Christianity Today", as the more post-modernist view. Mark Woods' attempt to tolerate some of the customs of other religions shows the … Continue reading →

常常在教会有人喜欢对一个年青人说：你很有追求。他很有追求。 其实，其含义是：他对神学很有追求。 我看这其实是一种讽刺。不是故意的，但无论如何还是侮辱性的。 因为“对神学有追求” 不同於“对神有追求“或”对神国有追求“。虽然”对神学有追求“不一定指“对神无追求”，但因“对神有追求” 尽然比 “对神学有追求” 更清楚地解释一个人的立场，为何不用？若不用之，岂不是愿意留位於”对神无追求“的可能性？ 所以，当牧师，传道人指一个人说：“这个人有追求”， 这是不对的。如果“有追求”是指“对神的国度有追求”，那该是所有基督徒的责任！而不是一个基督徒有（所以适合读神学），另一个基督徒没有，的陈述。 这样，神学其实是所有基督徒该上的。而不是只限于“有追求” （也不只限于“有呼召”）的。 真信心，是带有追求的。没有信徒以前一大堆的问题，信了之后，以前的问题都根本不在乎了。不然，这是叫“盲信”， 不是真正的信心。可惜是，今天许多东方基督徒是站在“盲信”而不承认是“盲信”的立场。所以，当有些信徒（或糊里糊涂者）叫一些人“你信！只要信！不要问这么多问题！”，其实他的所作所为并不在乎他人的信仰，只不过是要他人加入其“党”派，以至于盼望其“党派”在这世界留下深刻痕迹。

When being asked if homosexuality is a sin today, I think it is wise to generally avoid it if a straight answer is expected, especially when the other side already knows your answer. Not because it is too controversial to … Continue reading →
