동토마햇빛교회(김종택)

영문출처: The Library of Christian Classics : Ichthus Edition ​ 암브로시우스(Abrose)의 글 “The council of Aquileia” 중에서 In blasphemous terms Arius had described the Father as alone eternal, alone good, alone very God, alone possessing immortality, alone wise, alone almighty, impiously implying that the Son is without these attributes. Palladius and Secundianus preferred to follow Arius rather than confess t..

세례논쟁에 관한 서신 중에서 If the Church which Christ loves is one Church and it alone is cleansed with his washing, how can he who is not in the Church be loved by Christ or washed and cleansed with his washing? 그리스도께서 사랑하신 교회가 한 교회이고, 이 교회만이 그분의 씻으심으로 깨끗해졌다면, 어찌 교회 안에 있지 않는 자가 그리스도의 사랑을 받고 그분의 씻으심으로 씻기나? Therefore, since the Church alone possesses the water of life and the power to baptize and purify, no..

영문출처: The Library of Christian Classics: Ichthus Edition 키프리아누스(Cyprian)의 말 “Unity of the Catholic Church” 중에서 Though they are walking in darkness, they think they are in the light, through the deceitful flattery of the adversary who, as the Apostle said, transforms himself into an angel of light and adorns his ministers as ministers of righteousness, who call night day, death salvation, despair..

20. Walking according to God’s moral law is endangered by words as well as deeds. The Bible which ways: “Behold the man and his deeds,” says also: “Out of thy mouth thou shalt be justified.” Therefore we must remember to guard against the inroads of idolatry also in words let drop from fault of habit or cowardice. The Law does not actually forbid us to name the gods of the heathen. We may pronou..

16. So far as concerns the ceremonies at private and family festivals, such as putting on the white toga, celebrating an engagement or a marriage, or giving a name, I am disposed to think that we are in no danger from the whiff of idolatry which occurs at them. We must consider the causes of the ceremony. These, I think, are innocent in themselves, since neither the man’s clothing nor the ring n..

14. Many Christians today have come to think it pardonable to do as the world does “that the Name be not blasphemed.” There is indeed a blasphemy which we must avoid completely, namely, that any of us should give a pagan good cause for blasphemy by deceit or injury or insult or some other matter justifying complaint in which the Name is deservedly blamed, so that the Lord is deservedly angry. Bu..

11. If we consider the other sins according to their families, first avarice, the root of all evils, ensnared by which some have made shipwreck concerning the faith, (the same apostle twice calling avarice idolatry), and secondly lying, the servant of avarice – I say nothing of perjury, since it is not lawful even to take an oath - is business suitable for the servant of God? Where there is no a..

English "아담이 다시 자기 아내와 동침하매 그가 아들을 낳아 그의 이름을 셋이라 하였으니, 이는 하나님이 내게 가인이 죽인 아벨 대신에 다른 씨를 주셨다 함이며 (창4:25)" ​ 에덴에서 하나님의 보호 아래 살던 하와가 선악과를 따먹고 그 낙원에서 쫓겨났다. 자, 이제 연약한 하와는 어떤 전략을 세워 인생을 성공적으로 살다 삶을 마무리 할 것인가? ​ 하와는 남자 아담과 결혼하여 그의 자식을 낳는 길을 택했다. 그리하여 무난하게 인생 성공할 수 있었다. 여성들의 인생 성공 전략과 생사가 걸린 문제는 바로 결혼하여 출산하는 일이다. ​ 여자가 결혼도 못하고 출산도 못하면 어떻게 되는가? 그러면 이 험악한 세상에서 홀로 독립해 살아야 하는데, 여자의 몸으로 그게 쉬운 일인가? 어려서 부모님 품에서 ..

7. On this score a zealous faith will raise its voice, lamenting that the Christian comes into church from the idols, comes from the enemy workshop into the house of God, raises to God the Father hands that have mothered idols, adores with hands which outside are adored in opposition to God, touches the Body of the Lord with hands which give the demons their bodies. And worse. Small matter, mayb..

4. God forbids the making of idols no less than the worshipping of them. Just as any object of worship must first be made, so what must not be worshipped must not be made. That is the prior obligation. For this reason, in order to root out the materials of idolatry, God’s law proclaims: “Thou shalt not make an idol”; and by adding: “Nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven or in the earth..
