“For I determined not to know anything amongst you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified,” – 1 Cor. 2.2.

“因为我曾定了主意,在你们中间不知道别的,只知道耶稣基督并祂钉十字架。”——哥林多前书2章2节

“Moreover, I will endeavor, that you may be able after my decease, to have these things always in remembrance.” – 2 Pet. 1.15.

“并且,我要尽心竭力,使你们在我去世以后时常记念这些事。”——彼得后书1章15节

“The Orthodox Evangelist” by John Norton is a comprehensive theological exploration focused on central tenets of Christian doctrine.

约翰·诺顿的《正统福音传道者》是一部全面的神学探索,专注于基督教教义的核心要义。

It is a call to faithfulness, precision, and unity in understanding God’s Word.

这是对理解神圣言时忠心、精确和合一的呼召。

Norton’s earnest hope is for the grace of God to use this work to foster truth, peace, and understanding among His people, facilitating the genuine alignment of hearts and judgments with divine truth.

诺顿真挚的盼望是神的恩典使用这部作品在祂的子民中培养真理、和平和理解,促进心灵和判断与神圣真理的真正契合。

Penned by the insightful John Norton, explores the essence of the Communion of Saints, emphasizing the timeless value of sacred literature and its role in bridging generational, spatial, and temporal divides.

由富有洞察力的约翰·诺顿撰写,探索圣徒相通的本质,强调神圣文学的永恒价值及其在跨越世代、空间和时间分隔中的作用。

Norton beautifully illustrates the power of literature to make the wisdom of ancient saints available to contemporary readers as if those very saints were present and conversing with them.

诺顿美妙地阐述了文学的力量,使古代圣徒的智慧对当代读者成为可得的,仿佛那些圣徒就在场与他们交谈。

The book, while acknowledging the ubiquity of literary works and the potential for overwhelming readers, distinguishes itself by its exceptional importance.

这本书在承认文学作品的普遍存在和可能使读者感到不知所措的同时,以其非凡的重要性区别于其他著作。

Drawing parallels to indispensable medicines, Norton contends that “The Orthodox Evangelist” stands as a beacon of accuracy in religious discourse.

诺顿将其比作不可缺少的药物,声称《正统福音传道者》在宗教论述中是准确性的明灯。

It serves as a guide for readers to navigate their faith with precision, drawing inspiration from Ephesians 5:15, which emphasizes a life walked “exactly”.

它作为引导读者精确地持守信仰的指南,从以弗所书5章15节汲取灵感,该节强调”准确地”行走人生。

Using vivid imagery from Revelations 4:7, Norton portrays the four critical roles within the Church and underscores the paramount duty of the Teacher, an office seemingly held by Norton himself, to unearth and elucidate the intricate mysteries of God’s Kingdom.

使用启示录4章7节的生动意象,诺顿描绘了教会内四个关键角色,并强调教师的首要职责,这个职分似乎由诺顿本人担任,即发掘和阐明神国度的复杂奥秘。

A striking feature of the book is its concise yet profound expression.

这本书的一个显著特点是其简洁而深刻的表达。

Mirroring the ideals of Dr. Preston, who wished to “live long in a little time,” Norton strives to convey profound insights with an economy of words.

反映了普雷斯顿博士的理想,他希望”在短时间内长久地活着”,诺顿努力用简约的文字传达深刻的洞见。

Drawing a contrast with the Schoolmen – scholars revered for their brevity and solidity yet criticized for their deviations from pure divinity – Norton emphasizes the necessity of grounding discussions in Scripture.

与经院学者形成对比——这些学者因其简洁和坚实而受到尊崇,但因偏离纯正神性而受到批评——诺顿强调将讨论建立在圣经基础上的必要性。

His approach in this work sheds light on intricate theological debates, including the interplay of Grace and Free-will, aiming to bring clarity and harmony among varying doctrines of Grace.

他在这部作品中的方法阐明了复杂的神学辩论,包括恩典与自由意志的相互作用,旨在为各种恩典教义带来清晰和和谐。

Furthermore, Norton’s treatment of Christ’s soul-sufferings emerges as a corrective to some Protestant views that diminish Christ’s agony.

此外,诺顿对基督灵魂受苦的论述成为对某些贬低基督痛苦的新教观点的纠正。

He argues for a deeper appreciation of Christ’s sacrifice and the immeasurable love embedded therein.

他论证要更深地赞赏基督的牺牲以及其中蕴含的无法测度的爱。

The imputation of our sins to Christ and His obedience to us are foundational to our salvation, a theme he underscores.

我们的罪归算给基督和祂的顺服归算给我们是我们救恩的根基,这是他强调的主题。
