方舟與考古的回應與反思...

翻看母院院長寫於半年前的回應, 文章雖短, 但覺得對今日的爭論仍然十分適切:
1. 對任何考古發現皆要持嚴謹與開放的態度;
2. 考古是有用的助證, 決不能如坊間一些人的主張, 把聖經單純看作一文本, 聖經的史實性不容忽視;
3. 基督教的真理超越了考古的領域, 神透過史實向人類發出啟示, 但啟示的內涵本身已超出史實本身所能承載. (原文的頁3)

一. 其實, 質疑人家的誠信, 是道德的問題(造假, 失實...), 當然不共戴天, 需要回應. 但與其互相攻擊, 扣帽子(有說人抺黑, 有說人不是因信稱義...), 繼而失見證, 雙方是否可以平心靜氣, 放下針鋒相對的坐低一起談談?

二. 同時, 信仰與科學也許是不少信徒不感興趣的話題, 是否藉這機會需要重新反思? 坊間的說法盡都可信嗎? 今天我們應如何向人傳講真理? 是否一切跟考古/科學的東西都應避而不談? 有沒有在自己的範疇(科學/理科, 文科等)努力卓越的基督徒能見證信仰的真實? 自問都見過一些在屬世範疇很聰明的叻人(基督徒), 但有時真的驚訝他們對聖經的了解(認識神方面)何其膚淺!!!

也許還有三, 四, 五,... 你能化困難為祝福, 一起更新你的信仰嗎?
