華人教會與穆宣: 香港/歐洲 (英國) 為甚麼華人教會要關心穆宣?

對穆民的觀感要放棄先入為主的偏見 Jesus and the Samaritan woman in John 4: “his disciples … were astonished that he was speaking with a woman” (John 4:27) Jesus and the Roman Centurion in Matthew 8 and Luke 7 Boaz and Ruth in Ruth 2

原則 2: 多元主義的陷阱

多元中出現的陷阱 多種語言是好, 因為沒有任何一個語言比其他更好

多元中出現的陷阱 種族多元是好, 因為沒有一個種族比其他更優秀

多元中出現的陷阱 多元文化是好, 因為沒有一個文化比其他更優秀 但可以有討論包容的情況

多元中出現的陷阱 不同信仰有其堅持, 而且都要同等和合法性 不同的信仰有彼此之分? 多元現象, 對正確的信仰是陷阱? 是挑戰?

多元中出現的陷阱 Samaritan woman at the well (John 4:3-42) John 4:22 You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. 4:23 But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such as these to worship him. 4:24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."

多元中出現的陷阱 Ruth to Naomi (Ruth 1:16–17) Ruth says, "Entreat me not to leave you, or to turn back from following you; For wherever you go, I will go; And wherever you lodge, I will lodge; Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God. Where you die, I will die, and there will I be buried. The LORD do so to me, and more also, if anything but death parts you and me."

原則 3: 考慮其他的宗教系統

Similarities: Christianity & Other Faiths Hinduism: life after death Buddhism: compassion for suffering Islam: creator God Prophets Angels Day of Judgement Jesus’ return signals the end times

分別: 基督教與其他信仰 伊斯蘭: 佛教: 耶穌沒有被釘死 神並不存在 聖經被刪改 印度教: 沒有保羅 多位神 有審判日 做各種的功德 穆罕默德超越所有其他的先知 佛教: 神並不存在 印度教: 多位神 做各種的功德

教會與穆宣: 社會/群體的多元化 方法: 一些思想

方法: 一些思想 Colossians 4:5-6 Be wise in the way you act towards outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt so that you may know how to answer everyone.

方法: 一些思想 1 Peter 3: 15-16 … Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behaviour in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.

方法: 一些思想 Paul with the Athenians (Acts 17:16-34) Acts 17:22,23: Then Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, "Men of Athens, I perceive in all things you are very religious; for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you."
