## 一、先给一幅共同的大图像
可以用一句“统摄式”陈述作为黑板标题:
> 基督教救恩的中心:在圣灵里与基督联合,从而与三一神联合。
– 东正教:会说“救恩就是神化(theosis),
– 改革宗:会说“救恩就是与基督联合,
板书建议:
– 左边写 “Theosis = union with God in Christ in the Spirit”。[1][3]
– 右边写 “Union with Christ = union with God in Christ by the Spirit”。[7][2]
让学生先看到:两者都是“在基督、靠圣灵,与三一神联合”
## 二、三个“交叉焦点”来讲共通点
### 1. 同一位救恩中介:在基督里
– 东正教神化:明确说“若不在基督里,神与人的距离无法跨越;
– 改革宗联合:强调“一切属灵福分都在基督里,
课堂说法示例:
> “不管叫神化还是联合,关键都不是抽象地‘变得更属灵’,
### 2. 同一个终极目标:像神/像基督
– 东正教:目的=“按恩典成为神”,更准确地说,
– 改革宗:目的=“被模成基督的形像”,在荣耀中完全像基督(
可以引导学生发现:
> “一方用‘按恩典神化’说,一方用‘完全像基督’说,
### 3. 同一位施行者:圣灵在教会中
– 东正教:神化是圣灵藉着教会和圣礼的工作,
– 改革宗:联合与成圣是圣灵“将我们植入基督”的工作,
课堂可用一句话总结:
> “是圣灵在教会中把我们接上基督这棵树——东正教叫这过程‘
## 三、用一个简单图示整合
在黑板画一条从“重生”到“荣耀”的线,把两套语言叠加:
– 横轴:重生 → 成圣 → 得荣耀 / 复活
– 在上方写:净化(purification)→ 光照(illumination)→ 神化(theosis)。[12][3]
– 在下方写:称义(justification)→ 成圣(sanctification)→ 得荣耀(glorification)。[11][1]
然后在整条线上方画一个大括号,标:“在圣灵里与基督联合”。[
这样学生直观看到:
– 名称不同、结构解析不同,但**
## 四、在讲共通点时轻描但不隐藏的边界提示
在你强调共通点时,只需简短点出两条“底线”,不展开争论,
1. 关于“称义—成圣/神化”
– 改革宗会坚持:称义是一次性法庭宣告,不能被完全吸收进“
– 你可以一句话提示:“今天我们重点看两者都强调的‘
2. 关于“参与神性”的语言
– 东正教强调参与神能量、不参与本质;改革宗会说“
– 可以简单说:“今天我们用‘参与神生命’这个较宽的表达,
这样,你在课堂上既能让学生看到神化论与联合基督的深层共通:*
