Abstract:
本文以趙紫宸(1888-1979)早期(1925年底)所寫的《耶穌的人生哲學》等為文本依據,討論他神學早期以現世的理想世界為特徵的天國觀。文章最後指出,這種最終去除了彼岸、沒有超越於世界的天國觀,無意識地在中國教會裡呼應了同時代的非基督教運動。這不能不說是20世紀二、三十年代發生在趙紫宸個人神學思想史上的悲劇。
This paper discusses the conception of an ideal world present in T.C. Chao’s (Tsu Chen Chao) (1888-1979) early theological works, based mainly on the text Jesus’ Philosophy of Life(or, A New Interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount, written in late 1925). It concludes by pointing out that Chao’s view of a kingdom of heaven that ultimately eradicates the otherworld and does not transcend this world unconsciously echoes the Anti-Christian Movementwithin Chinese churches during the same period. This is, indeed, a tragedy in the development of T. C. Chao’s personal theological thought in the 1920s and 1930s.
