改革宗与地方召会在“基督身体”教义上,
## 1. 基督为头、教会为身体
– 改革宗明确承认:教会是“在圣灵里与基督联合的信徒群体”,
– 地方召会同样承认:普世一切重生得救的信徒构成一个“
换句话说,双方都认信“教会不是自足的宗教组织,
## 2. 与基督联合与“在基督里”
– 改革宗非常重视“与基督联合”(union with Christ),认为救恩的各方面(称义、成圣、得儿子名分)
– 地方召会强调“基督在我们里面”与“我们在基督里”,常引用“
在这一点上,双方都认为:
“基督身体”的教义,不只是一个比喻,
## 3. “一”个身体与教会合一
– 改革宗承认教会的“本质合一”:在基督里只有一个教会,
– 地方召会同样强调“只有一个身体,一位灵,一主,一信,一浸”,
双方共同点是:
都把“身体”的意象理解成呼召教会追求合一、
## 4. 肢体彼此相属、彼此服事
– 改革宗在诠释“身体”时,强调信徒彼此是肢体,有不同恩赐,
– 地方召会也强调:每一位信徒都是身体的肢体,都有功用;
所以双方都强调:
“身体”意味着互相需要、互相成全,拒绝“观众式基督徒”,
## 5. 普世性与地方性之间的张力
– 改革宗承认“有形教会”的多样性(不同宗派和地方教会),
– 地方召会在“普世身体—地方显出”的结构上有类似理解:
在这里,双方的共同点是:
都不把当地教会理解为一个与别处无关的“独立公司”,
如果你接下来想往更细处挖,我可以帮你从“有形/无形教会”“
