    Starting with an exposition of Hebrews 6:4-6, Owen sets the stage by laying out the foundational biblical understanding of apostasy.

    从希伯来书6章4-6节的释义开始,欧文通过阐述对背道的基础性圣经理解来奠定基础。

    This is not just a theoretical exposition but a deeply rooted exegetical endeavor, aiming to align the readers’ comprehension with the scriptural essence of falling away from the faith.

    In subsequent chapters, Owen explores the various manifestations and causes of apostasy.

    He dissects partial apostasy from the gospel, pointing out, among other things, the pretenses of the church of Rome against the charge.

    他剖析了对福音的部分背道,指出了罗马教会对这一指控的借口等事项。

    The treatise progresses to analyze apostasy from the mystery, truth, or doctrine of the gospel, exploring the intrinsic proneness of persons and communities to drift away from the foundational truths of their faith.

    A significant portion of the book is dedicated to identifying and discussing the multifarious reasons and causes of apostasy.

    Owen highlights spiritual darkness and ignorance as prime facilitators of a departure from faith.

    欧文强调属灵黑暗和无知是促成离弃信仰的主要因素。

    He doesn’t shy away from pointing out the subtler, yet equally perilous, causes such as pride, vanity of mind, sloth, negligence, and the alluring love of the world.

    他毫不回避地指出了更加微妙但同样危险的原因,如骄傲、心思虚妄、懒惰、疏忽和对世界诱人的爱。

    Each cause is not just listed but dissected, providing the reader with a comprehensive understanding of the intricate web that leads believers astray.

    每个原因不仅被列出,而且被剖析,为读者提供对导致信徒误入歧途的复杂网络的全面理解。

    In a poignant exploration of the deterioration of holiness, Owen discusses the gradual apostasy from the holiness of the gospel and its significant implications.

    在对圣洁衰败的深刻探讨中,欧文讨论了对福音圣洁的渐进性背道及其重大含义。

    He doesn’t just stop at theoretical exposition but also addresses the practical causes and occasions of this decay, offering a profound insight into the spiritual erosion that plagues individuals and communities alike.

    他不仅止于理论阐述,还论述了这种衰败的实际原因和时机,对困扰个人和群体的属灵侵蚀提供了深刻的洞察。

    The discourse takes a critical turn when it addresses apostasy from evangelical worship, highlighting a shift not just in belief but also in the very way individuals and communities engage with and express their faith.

    当论述涉及对福音敬拜的背道时,讨论出现了关键转折,突出了不仅在信仰上,而且在个人和群体参与和表达其信仰的方式上的转变。

    In the concluding chapters, Owen doesn’t leave the reader in a state of despair but offers inferences from the foregoing discourses, alerting the present generation to the dangers that lurk and the subtle ways in which apostasy can permeate one’s faith.

    在结尾章节中,欧文没有让读者处于绝望状态,而是从前述论述中得出推论,警告当代人潜伏的危险以及背道渗透人的信仰的微妙方式。

    He rounds off the treatise with practical directions to avoid the power of a prevailing apostasy, providing not just a diagnosis but also a prescription for preserving the integrity of one’s faith in the face of pervasive spiritual decay.

    It challenges the superficial understanding of faith and calls for a profound introspection of one’s spiritual state.

    It underscores the necessity of a vigilant and well-informed faith, one that is deeply rooted in the scriptural truth and immune to the seductive allure of temporal vanities.

    它强调了警醒且见识广博的信仰的必要性,这种信仰深深扎根于圣经真理,不受暂时虚荣的诱惑。

    Owen’s discourse serves as a clarion call to the contemporary church, urging it to examine the undercurrents of apostasy that threaten to erode the very foundations of the Christian faith.

    欧文的论述作为对当代教会的嘹亮呼声,敦促教会检视威胁要侵蚀基督教信仰根基的背道暗流。

    It’s a compelling reminder of the enduring relevance of vigilant faith and doctrinal purity in an era where the lines between truth and error are increasingly blurred.

    这是对警醒信仰和教义纯洁之持久相关性的有力提醒,在一个真理与错谬之间的界线日益模糊的时代。
