election call for distinction.五种类型的选举,呼吁区分。

Jude 6).只存在一个参考“选出天使” ( 1添。 5时21分;比照一肺心病。 6时03分; 2宠物。 2时04分;裘德6 )
。
- Election to
service or office is evident in God's sovereign choice of David as Israel's
king (1 Sam. 16:7 - 12) and in Jesus' choosing of the disciples and apostles
(Luke 6:13; John 6:70; 15:16; Acts 9:15;
15:7).选举服务或办事处,可见在上帝的主权选择,大卫作为以色列的国王( 1萨姆。 16时07 -1 2)
,并在耶稣的选择门徒和使徒(路加福音6时1 3分;约翰6 :70; 1 5时1 6分;的行为, 9时15分; 15时07分) 。
- The election of
Abraham's descendants to form the theocratic nation of Israel is a common
biblical theme (Deut.4:37; 7:6 - 7; 10:15; 1 Kings 3:8; Isa. 44:1 - 2; 45:4;

5分;一国王3时0 8分;伊萨。 4 4:1- 2; 4 5 :四; 65:9 , 15日, 22日;阿莫斯3时02分;行为13时17分;光碟。 9:1

Israel originated in God's sovereign choice, expressed his covenantal love,
and served the goal of redemptive history culminating in Jesus
Christ.选举的以色列起源于上帝的主权选择,表达了他covenantal爱,服务的目标,救赎的历史,最终在耶稣基督。
- The election of
the Messiah is a fourth type of election.选举弥赛亚是一个第四类型的选举。 Isaiah referred to the servant of the
Lord as "my chosen one" (42:1; cf. Matt. 12:18).以赛亚书转介到的公仆勋爵“我的选择之一” (
42:1 ;比照。马特。 12时18分) 。 Of the Synoptics only Luke refers to
Jesus as the Chosen One (9:35; 23:35).该synoptics只有卢克是指耶稣作为选择一( 9时35分;

type,这是一个基本的选举到最后的类型,
- election to
salvation, with which the rest of this article is
concerned.选举救亡,与本文的其余部分是关注。
The most common
NT reference to election is God's eternal election of certain persons to
salvation in Jesus Christ.最常见的新台币参考选举是上帝的永恒的选举,某些人的救赎在耶稣基督。 The subject is dealt with
comprehensively in Eph.主题是处理全面在弗。 1:3 - 11 and Rom. 1时03 -1 1和R
OM。 8:28 -
11:36. 8点28分-1 1时3 6分。 John Calvin, who became a major
defender of the Reformed doctrine, saw the whole doctrine of election summarized
in Eph.约翰卡尔文,谁成为一个主要的维护者,改革的理论,看到了整个学说的选举总结了在弗。 1. 1 。 All the Reformed confessions include
divine election, but the Canons of Dort, reflecting the controversy with the
Arminians, provide the greatest detail.所有改革的供述,包括神圣的选举,但大炮的dort
,反映了争议与阿敏念派,提供了最大的细节。 Election is part of God's eternal
decree and it has a soteriological role: "That some in time are given faith by
God and that others are not given faith proceeds from His eternal decree"
(1.6).选举的一部分,上帝的永恒的法令和它有一个soteriological的作用:
“一些在时间给出了信仰上帝和别人是不信仰的收益,从他的永恒的法令” ( 1.6 ) 。 Election is then defined as "the
unchangeable purpose of God whereby, before the foundation of the world, out of
the whole human race, which had fallen by its own fault out of its original
integrity into sin and ruin, He has, according to the most free good pleasure of
His will, out of mere grace, chosen in Christ to salvation a certain number of
specific men, neither better nor more worthy than other, but with them involved
in a common misery"
(1.7).选举是当时的定义为“永恒的目的,即上帝,之前的基础,世界上,出于对整个人类,这已经下降了自己的过错了其原有的完整性到单仲偕和破坏,他已根据该最自由的好高兴他的意志,走出单纯的宽限期,选择在基督救赎的若干具体的男子,既不更好,也不更值得比其他,但与他们所涉及的一个共同的苦难“
( 1.7 ) 。
Double
predestination is the typical Reformed
doctrine双predestination是典型的改革理论
The Canons of Dort distinguish election
and reprobation because the Scripture "declares that not all men are elect but
that certain ones have not been elected, or have been passed by in the eternal
election of God. These God out of His most free, most just, blameless, and
unchangeable good pleasure has decreed to leave in the common misery into which
they have by their own fault plunged themselves, and not to give them saving
faith and the grace of conversion" and "finally to condemn and punish them
eternally" for all their sins (1.15).该炮的dort区分选举和reprobation ,因为经文“
,宣称并非所有的男性选出,但某些那些尚未选出,或已通过在永恒的选举上帝。这些神出于他最自由,最公正,清白,和一成不变的好高兴已颁布的离开,在共同的苦难到他们有他们自己的过错投身,而不是给他们节省的信仰和恩典的转换“和”最后谴责和惩罚他们永远“所有他们的罪孽(
1.15 ) 。 Predestination
thus includes election and reprobation, and reprobation involves both a
sovereign passing by (preterition) and a just condemnation.
predestination因此,包括选举和reprobation ,和reprobation涉及一个主权路过( preterition
)和一个公正的谴责。
Principles of
Election原则选举
Six main features of election deserve
attention. 6主要特点的选举值得关注。
- (1) Election is
a sovereign, eternal decree of God. ( 1 )选举是一个主权,永恒的上帝的法令。 The elect have been "predestined
according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the
purpose of his will" (Eph. 1:11).该选举已“命中注定根据该计划,他谁工程的一切,在符合的目的,他将”
(以弗所书1时11分) 。 God chose us in
Christ "before the creation of the world" (Eph.
1:4).上帝选择了我们在基督里“前创造的世界” (以弗所书1:4 ) 。 God's sovereign decree is not
arbitrary; "in love he predestined us... in accordance with his pleasure and
will" (Eph. 1:5; cf. Rom. 8:29).上帝的主权法令,是不是任意; “在爱他注定了我们… …在根据他很高兴,并会”
(以弗所书1时05分;比照光盘。 8时29分) 。 This perspective is reflected in the
definition of election quoted above from Dort
(1.7).这个角度来看是反映在定义选举上文所引述的从dort ( 1.7 ) 。
- (2) The
presupposition of God's eternal decree of election is that the human race is
fallen; election involves God's gracious rescue plan. ( 2
)预设上帝的永恒的法令,选举是人类是下降;选举涉及上帝的殷勤拯救计划。 It is not based on human works or
God's foreknowledge of works (Rom.
9:11).这是不以人为本的工程或上帝的foreknowledge工程(罗马书9时11分) 。 The elect are chosen "to be holy and
blameless in his sight"; they are "adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ"
(Eph. 1:4 - 5).该选举是选择“要神圣和清白,在他的视线” ;他们是“通过他的儿子通过耶稣基督” (以弗所书1:4 -5 )
。 Hence election
leads to "redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins" (Eph.
1:7).因此,选举导致“赎回通过他的血,罪的赦免” (以弗所书1时07分) 。 The same perspective is evident in
Romans, for those whom "God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to
the likeness of his Son"
(8:29).同样的角度来看,显然在罗马,对于其中的“神foreknew他还注定要符合该似他的儿子” ( 8时29分) 。
The
presupposition is that they are fallen, and hence God's predestination
includes calling, justification, and
glorification.预设是他们下降,因此,上帝的predestination包括要求,理由,和颂扬。 This presupposition, that the fallen
race is the object of predestination, reflects the infralapsarian perspective
which is also that of the Canons of Dort (cf.
I.1,8,15).这个预设,即倒下的是种族的对象predestination
,反映了infralapsarian的角度来看,这也是说,该炮的dort (参见一.1 , 8,15 ) 。
- (3) Election is
"election in Christ"; election involves rescue from sin and guilt and
receiving the gracious gifts of salvation. ( 3 )选举是“选在基督里”
;选举涉及拯救从单仲偕和内疚和接收大方的馈赠救赎。 Election in Christ is evident in the
words already quoted from Eph.选举在基督里是明显的字眼已经引用了从弗。 1:4 - 5, 11, and Rom. 1点04分-5
, 1 1,和R OM。 8:29.
8时29分。 Christ is not
merely a subsequent means to effectuate a decree of election; election is in
Christ and through Christ.基督不仅是其后的手段,以实行了一项法令,选举;选举是在基督里并通过基督。
This is clearly
expressed in the Canons of Dort: "He has. . . chosen in Christ to
salvation.... From eternity He has also appointed Christ to be the Mediator
and Head of all the elect and the foundation of their salvation. Therefore He
decreed to give to Christ those who were to be saved, and effectually to call
and draw them into His fellowship through His word and Spirit"
(I.7).这是明确表示,在大炮的dort : “他已经…
。选择在基督救赎....从永恒的,他还任命了基督要调停和头部的所有选举和基础,他们的救赎。因此,他下令给基督那些谁被保存,并有效地调用和借鉴他们到他的金通过他的Word和精神“
(一.7 ) 。 Thus God's
election is in Christ, and Christ is both the foundation of election and the
foundation of salvation.因此,上帝的选举是在基督里,和基督既是基础的选举和基础救赎。 Calvin also referred to Christ as the
mirror of our election.卡尔文也提到基督作为一面镜子,我们的选举。
- (4) Election
involves both the elect's salvation and the means to that end. ( 4
)选举涉及双方选出的救亡和手段,以实现这个目标。 This is already evident in the
repeated references to election in Christ, but it is made even more
specific.这是已经很明显,在反复引用选举在基督里,但它是更具体。 God chose the elect "to be holy and
blameless in his sight, . . . to be adopted as his sons" (Eph. 1:4 - 5); the
elect are those whom God "foreknew. . . predestined. . . called. . .
justified. . . glorified" (Rom. 8:29 - 30).上帝的选择,选出“之内,以神圣和清白,在他的视线, …
… 。拟采用的作为,他的儿子” (以弗所书1:4 -5 ) ;选举,是那些人以神之名“ f oreknew。 。 。命中注定。 。 。所谓。 。
。有道理的。 。 。的荣耀“ (罗马书8时29 -3 0) 。 God chose the elect "to be saved
through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth" (2
Thess. 2:13).上帝的选择,选出“ ,以节省通过sanctifying工作的精神和通过的信仰真理” ( 2 thess 。
2时13分) 。 Hence the
preaching of the gospel is indispensable in effecting God's election (Rom.
10:14 - 17; cf. Acts 18:9 - 11).因此,宣扬福音,是不可或缺的影响上帝的选举(罗马书10时14 -1
7;比照行为1 8时0 9- 11 )。 The salvation of the elect has its
decretive origin before time, is realized through means in history, and
culminates in eternal
glorification.救世军的选举有其decretive原产地之前的时间,是实现手段,在历史上,并意味着在永恒的歌颂。
This is echoed
in the Canons of Dort: "He decreed to give them true faith in Him, to justify
them, to sanctify them, and, after having powerfully kept them in the
fellowship of His Son, finally to glorify them, for the demonstration of His
mercy and the praise of the riches of His glorious grace"
(I.7).这是呼应,在大炮的dort :
“他命令,让他们真正的信仰在他身上,他们的理由,圣化他们,并在后,有力地保持他们在金他的儿子,最后,以美化他们,因为示威他的慈悲与赞誉的财富,他光荣的恩典“
(一.7 ) 。 This feature of
election negates the objection that if one is elect, one will be saved
regardless of whether or not one
believes.此功能的选举否定了异议,如果是选出一,一会被保存,无论是否或不相信。 It also excludes the objection that
election leads to a libertine spirit; unbelief and careless living are
inconsistent with the scriptural doctrine of
election.它也排除了反对选举导致了libertine的精神; unbelief和不小心的生活是不符合圣经的教义选举。
- (5) Election
(as well as reprobation) is individual, personal, specific, particular.
( 5 )选举(以及reprobation )是个人,个人,具体,特别是。 Ephesians refers repeatedly to "us"
and "we" in connection with election (1:4 - 5,
12).以弗所书是指多次向“我们”和“我们”是他涉嫌与选举( 1:4 -5 , 1 2) 。 In Romans, Paul refers to "those"
whom God foreknew, predestined, called, justified, and glorified (8:29 -
30).在罗马,保罗是指“那些”人神foreknew ,注定了,所谓的理由,和歌颂( 8点29分-3 0) 。
Rom.
ROM的内容。 9 indicates
that personal election unto salvation was operative within the election of
Israel. 9表明,个人的选举所不欲,拯救被执行内部的选举,以色列。 Paul states that "not all who are
descended from Israel are Israel" (9:6, 8) and he shows that "God's purpose in
election" distinguished between Isaac and Ishmael, between Jacob and Esau
(9:7, 11 - 13).保罗说: “并非所有谁是来自以色列的后裔,是以色列” ( 9时06分, 8 )和他表明,
“上帝的目的,在选举”的区分艾萨克和以实玛利,之间的雅各布和以扫( 9时07分, 11 -1 3) 。 This is also the implication of the
expressions in John 6:37 - 40; 10:14 - 16, 26 - 29; 17:2, 6, 9,
24.这也是含意表达在约翰6时37 -4 0; 1 0时1 4- 16 ,2 6 -2 9; 17时02分,6 , 9 , 2 4
。 Hence the
Canons of Dort refer to election as the selection of "a certain number of
specific men" (I.7) and also state that "not all men are elect but that
certain ones have not been elected" but passed by in God's decree
(I.15).因此,大炮的dort是指当选为选择“有一定数目的具体男子” (一.7 )和还指出, “并非所有的男性选出,但某些那些没有被选为”
,但通过在上帝的法令( i.15 ) 。
The Westminster
Confession expresses this even more emphatically when it refers to the
predestined as "particularly and unchangeably designed, and their number so
certain and definite that it cannot be either increased or diminished"
(III.4).西敏寺认罪,表示这更强调,当它是指以命中注定“
,特别是和unchangeably设计,他们的人数,使某些明确的,它不能被任何增加或减少” (第三节) 。 The Arminians held to an indefinite,
conditional election, the election of those who
believe.该阿敏念派举行无限期的,有条件的选举,选举那些谁相信。 The Reformed view took the above
Scripture references seriously as well as the comforting assurance that
nothing "shall separate us from the love of Christ" and that "in all these
things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us" (Rom. 8:35 -
39).改革的意见,采取了上述经文参考,认真,以及令人欣慰的保证,什么“应分开我们从基督的爱”和“在所有这些事情,我们更比征服者通过他谁爱我们”
(罗马书八: 35 -3 9) 。 Particular, personal election leads
to the believer's comfort and does not promote carelessness or false
confidence.特别是,个人的选举,导致信徒的舒适和不鼓励不小心或虚假的信心。
- (6) Finally,
the ultimate goal of election is the glory and praise of God. ( 6
)最后,最终目标是选举的光荣和赞美上帝。 Election to salvation involves
personal privilege, blessing, security, and comfort for the
elect.选举救亡涉及个人的特权,祝福,安全和舒适为选出。 But Scripture makes clear that it is
"to the praise of his glorious grace" that everything leads (Eph.
1:6).但经文中明确指出,这是“称赞他的光辉的宽限期, ”一切线索(以弗所书1:6 ) 。 The elect have been chosen and
predestined "in order that we. . . might be for the praise of his glory" (Eph.
1:12).该选举已选择和命中注定“ ,以便我们。 。 。可能是为歌颂他的荣耀” (以弗所书1:12 ) 。 God's goal is "to bring all things in
heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ" (Eph. 1:10; cf. 1
Pet. 1:1; 2:9; Matt. 13:27 - 30; 24:31).上帝的目标是“把所有的东西,在天堂和地球上一起下,
1头,甚至基督” (以弗所书1:10 ;比照一宠物。 1:1 ; 2时09分;马特。 13点27分-3 02 4 : 31 ) 。 When Paul finished his long
discussion of election in Romans, he concluded with doxology (Rom. 11:33 -
36).当保罗完成了长期的讨论,选举在罗马,他的结论与doxology (罗马书11时33 -3 6) 。 That praise is also echoed in the
Reformed confessions; the final glorification of the elect is "for the
demonstration of His mercy and praise of the riches of His glorious grace"
(Canons of Dort I.7).这赞美,也是呼应,在改革的供述;最后歌颂的选举是“为示范,他的怜悯和赞许的财富,他光荣的恩典”
(大炮的dort一.7 ) 。 The Westminister Confession concludes
its discussion of God's eternal decree and predestination with similar words:
"So shall this doctrine afford matter of praise, reverence, and admiration of
God; and of humility, diligence, and abundant consolation to those that
sincerely obey the Gospel"
(III.8).该westminister供认其讨论的结论是上帝的永恒的法令和predestination与类似的话:
“因此,这一学说应负担的问题,赞美,崇敬,钦佩和上帝的;谦卑,勤勉尽责,和丰富的安慰,对那些真诚地听从福音” (三.8 ) 。
