「主的教會」和「宗派教會」的一些區別
From: T.A.
The church of Christ has a 2000 year history. It started in Jerusalem. Jesus built it. It wasn't started by men or a board of directors. It started in Jerusalem , not Rome, Germany or Europe. Most denominations have 500 or less years of existence. They are not the original , nor were they started by Christ, nor do they belong to Christ. The church of Christ accepts only the Bible for its authority. All creeds, catechisms, manuals, disciplines are the writings of uninspired men. They self-contradict and can never bring the unity that Jesus prayed for in John 17.
基督教會有2000年的歷史。她始於耶路撒冷,耶穌建造了她。而不是由人類或董事會開啟的。她始於耶路撒冷,而不是羅馬,德國或歐洲。大多數教派的存在年限為500年或更短。他們不是原本的教會,也不是由基督開始的,也不屬於基督。
基督的教會只接受聖經的權威。所有的信條、教理問答、手冊、紀律都是未被聖靈感動的人的著作。它們自相矛盾,永遠無法帶來耶穌在約翰福音17章所祈求的合一。
教會=她(基督的新婦) Eph 5:25; Rev 21:2
Jesus prayed that believers be sanctified by God's word which is the truth. The Lord's church worships the Father (John 4:23,24) by prayer, spiritual songs, Bible teaching and preaching and study, partaking of the Lord's supper every 1st day of the week and only on the 1st day of the week. We also give an offering on the 1st day of the week in accordance to what we have purposed and as we have prospered.
耶穌祈求信徒因神的話語而成聖,神的話就是真理。主的教會通過在每周第一天的禱告、靈歌、教導聖經、講道和學習、分享主的晚餐來敬拜天父(約翰福音4:23,24)。我們也在每周的第一天根據我們所預備且獲得的,奉獻給教會。
The Lord's church doesn't use mechanical instruments of music in our worship, nor does it use alcoholic wine in the Lord's supper. Also, only unleavened bread is used in the Lord's supper. Sisters do not take the lead in public worship (with men and women present) ; they do not lead men in prayer, nor preach to them. Brethren take the lead in worship services.
主的教會在敬拜中不使用樂器,在主的晚餐中也不使用酒精。此外,主的晚餐只使用無酵餅(和葡萄汁)。姐妹不帶領進行公開的敬拜(當有男人和女人同時在場的情況);她們不帶領人們禱告,也不向人們傳道。敬拜是由弟兄們帶領。
The work of the Lord's church lies in three major areas: evangelization, edification of its members, and benevolence toward others as we have opportunity and ability. We do not raise money for the church by raffles or pie sales. Our moneys come from the contributions of our members. These are some of the differences between the Church of Christ and denominations.
主教會的工作在於三個主要方面:傳福音、建立成員的信心,以及有機會和能力時向他人行善。我們不通過抽獎或賣餅為教會籌集資金。我們的金錢來自於成員的奉獻。
以上這些是基督教會和教派之間的一些區別。
