「有份」是表示神把自己本身分享與你,使你可以享受祂性情的本質。我當然不能說我們是 partaker of thedivine nature of God.這就這就變成我們在祂的「本質」上有份,不可能的。Substance wise, only God is God. 除了神以外,沒有別的能與祂有份本質,只有神是神。那當聖經說「上帝救我們脫離從世界情慾來的敗壞,乃是叫我們在祂的性情上有份」的時候,這個在中文聖經特別提到「性情」,我相信這是指「道德」的成份,而不是「本質」的成份。所以我們絕對不能接受那些異端的思想,也不能接受那些李常受的思想,「有一天我們變成神,我們變成神的一部份」,這是褻瀆,這是冒犯,這是違背聖經的!
然後說:『我當然不能說我們是 partaker of thedivine nature of God』
照唐牧的邏輯
1- 彼得就該被拖下去
2 Peter 1:4, KJV: "Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust." .
彼得應該從墳墓裡面爬出來,好好被『歸正』一番。
第二,如果我們不是『 partaker of thedivine nature of God』,因為『我相信這是指「道德」的成份,而不是「本質」的成份』,那麼,彼得就應該說:『 partaker of the divine virtues of God』
We say this to show that the words of Isaiah are not all spoken as if he was only an intermediary, but because participation in God also conferred the authority of God and because as a result of the dwelling of God in them, those who participate in him are called 'gods'. 我們說,這表明了以賽亞的道,不是在他只是作為一個中介人時所說的,而是因着他有份於神,也服在神的權柄下所說的。也因着神住在他們裡面,那些在他裡面有份的,就被稱為神(複數,gods)。
that having renewed it as its creator, he might deify it in himself, and thus might bring us all into the kingdom of heaven in his likeness. For man would not have been deified if he had been united with a creature, or if the Son had not been true God, nor would man have been brought into the Father‘s presence unless he who had put on the body had been his natural and true Words… so also man would not have been deified unless the Word who became flesh had been by nature from the Father and true and proper to him.For that is why the union was of this kind, that he might unite what is naturally man to what is naturally of the Godhead, and his salvation and deification be made sure.
