三位一體類比的誤區—-馬太福音3:17聖父［這是我的愛子, 我所喜悅的.］路加福3:21聖子［耶穌正在禱告.］馬可福音1:10聖靈［仿佛鴿子降在耶穌身上.］從古至今基督徒都渴望用常識和人的語言去理解這位創造宇宙萬物的主宰. 所謂三位一體是三個不同的位格為同一本體, 同一本質, 同一屬性, 是一位上帝. 三位一體的類比在神學或邏輯上都有缺陷. 第一個錯誤類比認為三位一體就像一個鷄蛋. 有蛋黃, 蛋白及蛋殼. 這個類比看似合理, 但是否定了神本體的合一性. 因為鷄蛋的蛋黃和蛋殼的組成物質是截然不同的. 這個類比有如三神論. 第二個錯誤類比以水為例, 水有固體, 液體及氣體. 雖然水改變了形態, 但它仍是H2O. 但是這種類比否定了神本體的區別, 而且無視三位一體同時的存在. 因為沒有一個水分子可以同時以三種形態出現. 形態論相信神只有一個位格, 而以三種不同的形態向我們出現. 第三個錯誤類比認為三位一體就像一個人, 同時是父親, 丈夫, 兒子的身份. 這種類比雖然解決了三位一體不同的位格, 可以同時存在的挑戰, 但是卻無法解決三位一體之間位格互動的問題. 無法在同一個物理時空中, 做到三個身份有效的互動. 第四個錯誤的類比認為三位一體就像太陽, 有光線有熱量. 但光線熱量不是太陽本身. 只不過是太陽散發出來的衍生物. 第五個錯誤類認為三位一體就像三葉草. 這種類比會陷入部份主義的問題. 這也是形態論的變種. 三位一體的奧袐, 我們要完全理解是不可能的. 我們是受造物, 而神是造物主. 要完全理解神, 要大于等于神, 而我們的身份決定定了不可能. 我們能了解神是什麼, 但我們不能理解神究竟是什麼. 但保羅給我了我們一個安慰, 哥林多前書13:12［我們如今仿佛對著境子觀看. 糢糊不清, 到那時, 就要面對面了. 我如今所知道的有限, 到那時就全知道, 如同主知道我一様.］我個人認為子是父的化身和彰顯. 靈是父子的實際和實化. 三位一體就是天上一個我, 地上一個我, 心理又另一個我.
Misunderstandings in the Trinity analogy – Matthew 3:17 The Father [This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.] Luke 3:21 The Son [Jesus is praying.] Mark 1:10 The Holy Spirit [ Like a dove descending on Jesus.] Christians from ancient times to the present have longed to use common sense and human language to understand the Lord who created the universe. The so-called Trinity is three different persons with the same ontology, the same essence, and the same attributes. is one God. The Trinity analogy is both theologically and logically flawed. The first false analogy is that the Trinity is like an egg. It has a yolk, an egg white, and an egg shell. This analogy seems reasonable, but it denies the unity of God’s being. One nature. Because the yolk and eggshell of an egg are made of completely different materials. This analogy is like tritheism. The second wrong analogy is water, which consists of solid, liquid and gas. Although water changes its form, It is still H2O. But this analogy denies the distinction between God’s entities and ignores the simultaneous existence of the Trinity. Because no water molecule can appear in three forms at the same time. Modalism believes that God has only one person and three different forms. appears to us in the form of. The third wrong analogy is that the Trinity is like one person, who is father, husband, and son at the same time. Although this analogy solves the challenge that different persons of the Trinity can exist at the same time, it cannot solve it. The problem of the interaction between persons in the Trinity. It is impossible to achieve effective interaction among the three identities in the same physical space and time. The fourth wrong analogy is that the Trinity is like the sun, with light and heat. But the light and heat are not the sun itself. It is nothing but a derivative emanating from the sun. The fifth error category is that the Trinity is like a clover. This analogy will fall into the problem of partialism. This is also a variant of modalism. The mystery of the Trinity must be fully understood. Possible. We are creatures, and God is the Creator. To fully understand God, we must be greater than or equal to God, and our identity makes it impossible. We can understand what God is, but we cannot understand what God is. But Paul gave us a comfort, 1 Corinthians 13:12 [Now we seem to be looking at each other in a blur, but then we will be face to face. What I know now is limited, but then we will be face to face. Full knowledge, just as the Lord knows me.] I personally believe that the Son is the incarnation and expression of the Father. The Spirit is the reality and realization of the Father and the Son. The Trinity is one me in heaven, one me on earth, and another mentally.
