BELIEVE Religious Information Source相信宗教信息来源

We think that He would wish ALL people to have access to and understanding of ACCURATE and HONEST information on all religious subjects.我们认为，他希望所有的人有机会获得和理解所有宗教题材的准确和诚实的信息。 Christians believe that He has installed an Indwelling Holy Spirit in each person such that the person then has Divine assistance regarding Discerning what is correct regarding the best way of Worshipping the One True Lord.基督徒相信他这样的人，然后有神圣的援助有关明眼人就崇拜一个真正的主最好的办法是正确的安装在每个人的留置圣灵。 Religious systems tend to try to force followers to accept ONLY what they Teach them, and to be deaf or even adversarial to things anyone else might say.宗教制度往往试图迫使信徒只接受他们教给他们什么，是聋子，甚至对抗性的东西别人可能会说。 There is nothing wrong with Trusting and following your religious leader, and indeed, it is important to do so.没有什么错误的信任和您的宗教领袖，而事实上，这样做是非常重要。 But there also needs to be some system of checks and balances where the Lord's True Message might not be distorted.但也需要有一些主的真实信息可能不会被扭曲的检查和结余制度。

We have recently realized that if Jesus Himself would arrive at any of many thousands of Christian Churches, in His robe and with His long hair and general appearance, He would certainly be denied admission to the Church!最近，我们已经意识到，如果耶稣本人将在他的长袍，他的长头发和一般外观，到达任何成千上万的基督教，他肯定会被拒绝入场到教会！ What does THAT say about our modern understanding of what He tried to Teach us?那是什么说对我们的现代理解他试图教给我们什么？

The different religions and Denominations each absolutely insist that THEIR interpretation is superior to all others.每个不同的宗教和教派的绝对坚持认为，他们的解释是优于其他所有。 Isn't that Arrogance, something that the Lord Wished us to avoid?是不是，傲慢的东西，上帝希望我们能够避免吗？ Didn't He Try to Teach us Humility and Tolerance of others?没有他试图教我们的谦卑和宽容他人？ It seems to us that if a religion chooses to refer to the One True God by a somewhat confusing collection of Three Different Names (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) or to see Him as very Harsh (Jewish) or Loving (Christianity), does it necessarily mean that HE is any Different?在我们看来，如果一个宗教选择指一的真神（圣父，圣子和圣灵）由三种不同的名字有点混乱的集合，或者看到他非常苛刻（犹太），爱（基督教），这不一定意味着他有什么不同？ Probably not.大概不会。 It probably simply indicates that we humans are not nearly as smart as we often want to claim, and that there are many, many things that we only vaguely comprehend.它可能只是表明我们人类是不是几乎一样聪明，因为我们经常要声称，有很多很多的事情，我们只隐约领悟。 There actually seems a credible possibility that we are all actually "speaking the same language of Love and Adoration for the One True God of Abraham" but simply do not (yet) realize it!实际上似乎有一个可信的可能性，我们都其实“讲同一种语言的爱和崇拜唯一的真神亚伯拉罕”，但根本就没有（）实现！

Saint Clement of Alexandria may have described this most fully, (around 200 AD), in the Stromata, Book VIII, Chapter I .圣克莱门特亚历山大可能最充分的，（约公元200年），中的Stromata，书第八章我 。

It seems that most people have an enormous misunderstanding regarding what a "scholarly text" actually is!看来，大多数人有什么“的学术文本”，实际上是一个巨大的误解！ A good example might be our presentation on Arguments for the Existence of God. If most people tried to compose that presentation, including virtually any Church or its personnel, they would assemble it in the "obvious" way.一个很好的例子可能是我们的介绍，对上帝存在的论据。如果大多数人都试图撰写文稿，其中包括几乎所有的教会及其工作人员，他们将在“明显”的方式组装。 And that would not possibly qualify for being a "scholarly work" no matter how brilliantly it was researched and presented!并就不可能有资格获得“学术著作”，无论多么出色，它是研究和提出！ If you look at our presentation linked here, you will see a prominent distinction which qualifies it as being scholarly.如果在我们的介绍挂在这里，你会看到一个突出的区别，有资格作为学术。 Right after the initial presentation of the arguments FOR the Existence of God, that author has a section which discusses the arguments AGAINST the Existence of God!右后初期表现为上帝存在的论据，即有一节讨论了对上帝存在的论据！ Most Christian Ministry seem to be viciously against including such things!大多数基督教部似乎是恶毒的反对，包括这样的事情！ Many have told me that I am certain to go to Hell for allowing such things to be included in BELIEVE!许多人告诉我，我一定去地狱中认为包括允许这样的事情！ Amazing! They INSIST on only telling THEIR side of any stories or any issues, apparently deciding that THEY are each brilliant enough to determine what their Church Members should be allowed to hear and what their Church Members should be denied hearing! No actual scholar would ever do that!太神 ​​奇了！ 他们坚持只告诉他们身边的故事或任何问题，显然，他们是每一个辉煌的足够，以确定哪些应该被允许听取和教会成员应拒绝听取他们的教会成员决定！没有实际的学者将永远做到这一点！ It is considered critically important to always present BOTH sides, ALL sides, of any issue, logically and fairly.它被认为是极为重要的始终呈现两侧，四面八方，任何问题，逻辑和公正的。 Scholars then rarely actually extend that to forming conclusions, other than what is solidly based on the arguments and known facts.学者则很少实际扩展，形成结论，比什么是牢固的参数和已知的事实基础上。 In contrast, we find it immensely frustrating that MOST Christian books, articles and speeches tend to ONLY provide SELECTIVE EVIDENCE which then appears to totally support whatever conclusions that the (Christian) writer or speaker wants to claim.相比之下，我们觉得非常沮丧的是，大部分基督教的书籍，文章和讲话，往往只提供选择性的证据，然后会出现完全支持（基督教）作家或喇叭要声称任何结论。 We hope you see the distinction, as it really is very, very important.我们希望你看到的区别，因为它确实是非常，非常重要。 Regarding BELIEVE, we do not necessarily want to present thoughts or arguments which appear to oppose Christianity or some Church, but in an effort at presenting scholastic honesty, we feel that it is critically important that we ONLY present articles by scholar-authors which DO consider all sides of any issue.至于信不信，我们并不一定要提出反对基督教或一些教会的想法或论点，但在提交学术诚实的努力，我们觉得这是非常重要的，我们只能由学者，作家，但考虑本条款任何问题的各方面。 Virtually every argument and every group has wonderful assets but also a few warts!几乎每一个论点，每个组都有精彩的资产，但也有一些疣！ We think it would be potentially deceptive if we tried to ignore the existence of those warts!我们认为这将是潜在的欺骗性，如果我们试图忽视这些疣的存在！ This text makes clear that we have great confidence in the brains and the personal Discernment of each reader, especially since we are confident that the Indwelling Holy Spirit will assist each person regarding that.这个文本明确指出，我们有很大的信心，在大脑和每一位读者的个人鉴别力，特别是因为我们有信心留置圣灵会帮助每个人关于该。 So we have no concerns whatever regarding the fact that our scholar-authors sometimes discuss matters which might seem unsettling to Christians.因此，我们没有任何有关的事实，我们的学者，作家有时会讨论的事项，这似乎令人不安的基督徒的关注。 We feel that this is far better than the only alternative that we are aware of, where WE would select a single viewpoint to try to present to all our visitors.我们觉得这是唯一的选择，我们都知道，在这里我们将选择一个单一的观点，试图呈现给我们所有的游客远远超过。

Several of the most important topics in BELIEVE have presentations that extend over 100 screenfuls of text! The presentation of the Roman Catholic Church is more than 30 screens in length. 几个认为最重要的课题有超过100屏幕的文字，介绍演讲的罗马天主教会是长度超过30多屏幕。 The one on God is about 150 screens in length.在一个神的长度大约是150屏幕。 The one on The Childhood of Jesus is nearly 500 screens in length! 耶稣的童年是在一个长度近500屏幕！ Even a generally unfamiliar subject like Supralapsarianism is about five screens in length, with several links to other BELIEVE pages that are closely related to that subject.即使像一般陌生的课题Supralapsarianism长度约五屏幕，其他的几个环节，相信这一主题密切相关的网页。 Some of the more obscure subjects are covered in just one or two screens.一些较模糊的科目都包括在一个或两个屏幕。

There is certainly a multitude of Christian and other religious sites on the Internet.当然是有许多在互联网上的基督教和其他宗教场所。 Many of them are informative, but they seem to generally present only their own view of whatever subjects they discuss.他们中的许多信息，但他们似乎一般只提出他们自己的看法，他们讨论的任何科目。 That might be valuable, but it can often cause an incomplete understanding of those subjects.这可能是有价值的，但它往往会导致不完全理解这些科目。 How can a student of Christianity or any other religion truly understand any subject if he/she only has access to one narrow viewpoint?基督教或其他宗教的学生如何能真正了解任何问题，如果他/她只获得一个狭隘的观点？ Yes, we realize that there might be value in sometimes presenting ONLY ONE approach, of NOT bringing up matters which might cause some Christians to become confused or uncertain.是的，我们意识到可能存在价值，有时呈现只有一个方法，不使这可能会导致一些基督徒变得混乱或不确定的事项。 Fine.罚款。

Our Non-Denominational Christian Church thinks that in general it is wrong to consistently do that.我们的非宗派的基督教会认为，在一般情况下，这是错误的，始终做到这一点。 How could a person develop a solid foundation for Faith if incomplete or inaccurate or distorted information is all that is available?一个人怎么可能发展为信仰的坚实的基础，如果不完整或不准确的或歪曲的信息是所有可用的吗？ What if your First Grade Teacher only decided to teach you her favorite letters of the alphabet and not all 26 of them? Our approach is to try to imagine how Jesus might have presented religious information. Would He have only presented some facts that supported a point He wanted to make?如果你的一年级老师才决定教你她最喜欢的英文字母，而不是所有的，其中26？ 我们的做法是设法想象如何耶稣可能提出宗教信息。他只是提出了一些事实，支持点他想？ We doubt it!我们对此表示怀疑！ Would He have presented any statement that He did not truly believe to be true, or that was otherwise incomplete or inaccurate or misleading or deceptive?他提出的任何声明，他并没有真正相信是真实的，或者说，否则不完整或不准确或具误导性或欺骗性？ We doubt it!我们对此表示怀疑！ We think that He would have patiently sat down with anyone who had questions and He would have helped each person to fully understand the answers to those questions.我们认为，他会耐心地坐在​​任何人有问题，并他会帮助每个人要充分认识到这些问题的答案。

We often consider a real situation which existed in the Early Church.我们经常考虑的实际情况，在早期教会存在。 The full Bible as we know it was only finalized nearly 400 years after Jesus lived.完整的圣经，因为我们知道它只是近400年后定稿耶稣住。 We sometimes consider a passionate Christian of around 80 AD, who happened to NOT have an entire Bible but just a SINGLE SHEET from ONE LETTER of Paul.有时我们会考虑公元约80热情的基督教，谁发生的，没有一个完整的圣经，但只是从保罗一个字母的单张纸。 What could the Lord have expected of that person?主所期望的那个人吗？ A comprehensive understanding of all aspects of Christianity?基督教各方面的一个全面的了解？ That would not be possible for him!那会不会是他！ But he certainly would read that page every day and certainly memorize it.但他肯定会读取该页面每天一定记住它。 Whatever specifics that Paul might have discussed in that page, this man would have centered his life upon.不管保罗有可能在该页面讨论的细节，这名男子将围绕他的生活时。 And we feel that the Lord would be totally Pleased with him for that effort.我们觉得主会完全与他这种努力感到高兴。 Curiously, when I have brought this story up to several hundred other Ministers over the years, at least two hundred of those Christian Ministers immediately told me that that man went to Hell, for not having FULLY followed all the aspects of Christianity!奇怪的是，当我把这个故事多年来几百其他部长，至少两百名的基督教部长马上告诉我，那个男人没有完全遵循基督教的所有方面，去地狱！ I am always astounded at hearing Ministers say that, and it terrifies me regarding what they might be Teaching in their own Churches!我总是惊讶听到部长说，它让我惊恐万分，对于他们可能在自己的教堂教学！ They are either ignorant or overlook the fact that the complete Bible only was settled on around 390 AD, but they still demand that earlier Christians be knowledgeable regarding a Bible which did not then even exist!他们要么是无知或忽视了完整的圣经只解决公元390左右的事实，但他们仍然要求早期基督徒要有丰富的知识，关于圣经没有那么即使存在！ It seems to me that those modern Ministers believe that Christianity is totally Legalistic, where they must not have read the parts of the Bible that make clear Jesus' attitude about such things!在我看来，这些现代的部长们认为基督教是完全墨守成规，他们必须在没有读“圣经”的部分作出明确耶稣的这些事情的态度！

BELIEVE is here with the intent of permitting our visitors to access all the (credible) perspectives that we are aware of, with the intention of enabling DEEPER Devotion to the Lord.相信这是在这里允许游客访问所有的（可信）的观点，我们都知道，意图使更深的奉献给主，意图。

Well, we have a disadvantage here! 好了，我们这里有一个缺点！ We are not Jesus! 我们不是耶稣！ We do not have His Knowledge and Understanding! So, we just try the best we can to supply the most accurate, understandable and complete information we can, on each of these many subjects. 我们没有自己的知识和理解，因此，我们只是尽我们所能提供最准确，理解和完整的信息，我们可以对这些多学科，。 That is basically the core reason for the BELIEVE Religious Information Source web-site. We try to not express opinions but only present the facts and all of the generally accepted attitudes on each subject.这是基本的核心原因，相信宗教信息来源网站。 我们尽量不发表意见，但只提出的事实和所有每个科目上普遍接受的态度。

BELIEVE has two parallel home pages, one with the subjects listed alphabetically and the other with more central subjects at the start of the list.相信有两个平行的网页，字母和其他更核心科目列出名单开始的科目之一。 (The subject list is to the right, and a link above it can get you to the alphabetical list.) These articles were written by many world-renowned scholars in their specific subjects. We felt that such scholars were the best available authorities in each of the many subjects. （主题列表是正确的，它上面的链接，可以让你按字母顺序排列的列表）。 这些文章被许多世界知名的学者 ，在他们的具体议题。我们认为，这些学者在每个最好的可用当局很多科目。 We are very aware that there have probably been millions of articles written by religious scholars over the centuries, and we have only been able (so far) to review a tiny fraction of them.我们很清楚，有可能以百万计的世纪宗教学者撰写了文章，我们只能够（到目前为止），审查了他们的一小部分。 That means that this BELIEVE site should forever be a work-in-progress, and it will hopefully forever get better and better!这意味着，这认为网站应该永远是一个进展中的工作，并希望它会永远让自己变得更好！ We sometimes say that in another thirty years, BELIEVE might start to resemble something that the Lord might be Pleased with!我们有时会说，在另一个30年，相信可能会启动类似的东西，主可能会高兴！

In the process of selecting the 7,000+ articles that are currently included in BELIEVE, we examined over 50,000 articles that we did not include.在文章中认为，目前包括7000 +的选择过程中，我们审查，我们并没有包括超过50,000篇文章。 If an article seemed biased or incomplete or not solidly based on accepted scholastic standards, we did not include it.如果一篇文章似乎偏颇或不完整或不牢固的根据公认的学术标准，我们并没有包括它。 It is our hope that the remaining articles are useful to the visitors to this site.这是我们希望此网站的访问者的其余条款是有用的。

Whether your interest is casual curiosity or deep philosophical research, BELIEVE should certainly be helpful. Many of the subject presentations start with a General level presentation of the subject, which is often followed by very comprehensive Advanced presentation(s) for student and Ministry research. 无论你的兴趣是休闲的好奇心或深刻的哲学研究，相信一定帮助。许多主题演讲开始，通常是由学生和部研究非常全面的先进的演示（S）的一门学科的总水平呈现 。 Actual Scripture from the Bible is generally not included, but many thousands of Scriptural references are included, as are extensive bibliographies (for most of the articles) for even further study.实际从“圣经”的经文是一般不包括在内，但成千上万的圣经引用，以及广泛的书目（文章）为进一步研究。

Have you ever been a little unclear when your Minister refers to sanctification in a sermon? Or ultradispensationalism? Or Baptism? Or infralapsarianism? Or Salvation? Well, most Ministers aren't going to even mention two of these very important aspects of Christian Faith in their Sermons! 你去过部长指成圣在讲道时有点不清楚，还是ultradispensationalism？还是洗礼？或者infralapsarianism？好，大多数部长都不会，甚至提及基督教信仰这些非常重要的方面还是救赎？他们的说教！ But they would if they could!但他们如果他们能！ Or maybe you wanted to learn more about your friend's Methodism? Or about Amish beliefs?或者，也许你想了解你的朋友的理宗？或有关阿米什信仰吗？ Or the history of The Lord's Prayer? Have you ever been curious about just how our modern beliefs in Jesus got refined to where they are today?或主祷文的历史吗？你有没有去过，只是如何在耶稣我们现代的信念就细化到他们今天的好奇？ Or you wanted deeper understanding of any of hundreds of other interesting religious topics?或你想深入了解任何数以百计的其他有趣的宗教主题？

These are some reasons where you may want to browse through BELIEVE!这些都是一些原因，您可能要翻阅不管相信！

As mentioned above, we have gone to considerable effort to eliminate bias from this collection of articles. It is reasonable for most authors to be enthusiastic for their subject, but if an author showed such an extreme attitude that possible distortion of facts might happen, WE LEFT SUCH AN ARTICLE OUT! BELIEVE is meant as an information source which has the most "level playing field" possible, so that readers can count on getting useful and fair and accurate information. 如上所述，我们已经走了相当大的努力，以消除偏见从这个收集的文章。对于大多数作家是其主题的热情，这是合理的，但如果一个作者可能扭曲事实可能发生这种极端的态度表明，留下了这样的文章指出！ 相信是作为一个信息源，它具有最“公平的竞争领域”的可能，使读者可以指望得到有用的，公正和准确的信息。 There is only one substantial bias that was NOT removed, that against Satanists, Atheists, and similar groups.只有一个重大偏见，不删除，对撒殚教徒，无神论者和类似团体，。 We considered including some of their own information, to balance some of the negative comments that some of our included authors make, but we decided that we did NOT want to encourage or publicize or support the activities or beliefs of such groups.我们认为，包括一些自己的信息，以平衡一些，使我们包括作者的一些负面评论，但我们决定，我们不希望鼓励或宣传或支持这些团体的活动或信念。

If you get the impression that any particular presentation in this library shows substantial bias for or against any group or belief system, please let us know by an E-mail message or a postal letter.如果你得到的印象是，此库中的任何特别的介绍，表明支持或反对任何团体或信仰体系的重大偏差，请让我们知道一个E-mail邮件或邮政信件。 We hope to forever improve BELIEVE, and you can help!我们希望永远改善相信，你能帮助！

People regularly send in manuscripts and essays which they hope to have added to our BELIEVE site.人们定期送他们希望加入到我们相信网站的手稿和散文。 Unfortunately, most of them cannot be used here.不幸的是，其中大多数是不能用在这里。 One characteristic we insist on is that ALL perspectives on a subject or issue be equally and fairly discussed, as is the case in any credible scholarly work.我们坚持的一个最大的特点是一个主题或问题的观点是，平等和公平的讨论，为的是在任何可信的学术工作的情况。 When most people feel motivated to write an essay, it is because they have very strong feelings regarding one particular viewpoint on the subject.当大多数人觉得动机写一篇短文，这是因为他们有非常强烈的感情，关于这个问题的一个特定的角度。 In many places, there is nothing wrong with that, in "promoting" that particular perspective.在许多地方，有没有错，在“促进”，即特定的角度。 It is even often a great way of encouraging people to accept that particular belief.它甚至常常鼓励人们接受，特别是信仰的一个伟大的方式。 But BELIEVE is meant to present ALL perspectives as equally as is possible, and so "sales pitches" for any one position are not generally desirable here.但我相信是目前所有的观点，同样是可能的，所以“推销”任何一个位置一般都不是可取的，在这里。 In many cases, such an essay could be fairly easily expanded to include the opposing viewpoints.这样一篇文章，在许多情况下，可以很容易扩展到包括反对意见。 There have been many wonderful manuscripts sent in, which could have been used with such a modification, but not otherwise.已经有许多精彩的稿件发送，它可能已被使用这样的修改，而不是其他。

The individual web-page presentations are all designed to display properly on any home computer. Web页面的个人介绍都设计任何家庭计算机上正确显示。 They are hopefully also compatible with the obsolete computers and browsers which Missionaries often have to use.他们也希望与传教士经常使用的过时的计算机和浏览器兼容。 (The files are each made absolutely as small as they can be so that such Missionaries can have shorter Internet access times and expenses.) BELIEVE doesn't contain banners or other images that might interfere with such use. （文件各绝对小，因为他们可以使这些传教士可以有较短的上网时间和费用。）相信不包含横幅广告或其他可能会干扰等使用的图像。

If someone thoroughly studied the entire contents of BELIEVE (equivalent to over 10,000 pages of typewritten text, over 30,000 screenfuls) and also the Bible, the resultant religious knowledge would be very close to that of a Divinity Degree from a Seminary! We realize that most people aren't going to use it that thoroughly! 如果有人深入研究相信整个内容（相当于10000多页打字文本，超过30,000 screenfuls）和“圣经”，由此产生的宗教知识将是一个从神神度非常接近我们认识到，大多数人们不会使用它，彻底！ But if you keep the downloadable BELIEVE program on your computer's hard drive, or keep a bookmark for this web-site in your browser, its information will be rapidly accessible, faster than you could find it in a reference book!但如果你保持你的计算机的硬盘驱动器上下载的是信计划，或保持这在您的浏览器的网址书签，其信息将迅速方便，速度比你能找到一本参考书！

The way both subject lists are set up encourages browsing. You or your kids might have 15 minutes available one day. 设立两个学科名单的方式，鼓励浏览。您或您的孩子可能有15分钟提供1天。 You COULD play some computer game!你可以玩一些电脑游戏！ But if BELIEVE is there, you might just as well decide to learn a little about Arminianism or about Evangelicalism. You don't need to commit a huge block of time to it (but you could!)但是，如果认为有，你或许也同样决定了解一点亚米纽斯或约福音派。你不需要承诺的时间，它的巨大块（但你可以！）

Even very devout Christians will probably find many unfamiliar terms in the list at right.即使是非常虔诚的基督徒，可能会发现右侧列表中的许多陌生的名词。 Many Protestant Christians do not realize that many things like the above mentioned Arminianism probably contributed (in one way or another) in a substantial way in the development of the beliefs of the Church they attend!许多基督教徒没有意识到，像上面提到的亚米纽斯很多事情可能在他们参加教会的信仰发展的主要方式（在这种或那种方式）！ Very few Christians seem to know that nearly all modern Christian Churches are Semi-Sabbatarian!极少数的基督徒似乎知道，几乎所有的现代基督教教会是半Sabbatarian！

For Ministry 对于部

BELIEVE can be a useful source for when Pastors are assembling their Sermons. 相信可以为当牧师正在组装他们的说教有用的信息来源。 Many of the topics include very comprehensive discussions, especially the Advanced articles.许多议题包括非常全面的讨论，特别是高级物品。
BELIEVE can also be helpful to Ministry when a Congregation member asks a question about an obscure subject.也相信可以有助于部时，一众成员问一个不起眼的题目有关的问题。 Refreshing that knowledge gained on Photius in Divinity School can be quickly done!清爽知识获得Photius在神学院，可快速完成！

For testifying to others 为了证明他人

BELIEVE is a useful information source when you are about to testify to someone of another Faith. 相信这是一个有用的信息源，当你作证以另一种信仰的人。 Articles describing nearly all world belief systems are included.几乎所有世界的信仰系统的描述。 Knowing something about what a person presently believes will help you to intelligently comment on their beliefs, and then express the advantages of your belief system.一个怎样的人目前认为知道的东西会帮助您聪明地评论他们的信仰，然后表达你的信念系统的优势。 This can help develop respect and credibility in you and make YOUR presentation more acceptable.这有助于发展你的尊重和信誉，使您的演示更容易接受。 Often, when Christians witness to others, they overlook why the person currently believes what he/she does, as though it is irrelevant, often because they know very little about that other belief system.通常情况下，当基督徒见证别人，他们忽视为什么目前的人认为他/她做什么，好像是无关紧要的，往往是因为他们知道甚少其他信仰体系。 This often comes across as extremely insulting!这往往跨越作为极其侮辱！ Here's a chance to improve the effect of your witnessing to others, by showing respect for them by intelligently discussing their current beliefs.这里有一个机会改善你看到的效果，显示尊重他们通过智能化讨论他们目前的信念，给他人。

To confirm or deny a questionable comment made by a friend. 证实或否认有疑问的朋友评论。

Sometimes, you hear someone say something religious that just sounds weird!有时候，你听到有人说什么宗教，只是听起来不可思议！ Normally, you don't have quick access to reference books to research the topic, or you just don't want to invest hours tracking down such information. BELIEVE probably has useful information on that subject, available in just seconds.通常情况下，你不会有快速的访问参考书研究的主题，或者你只是不想投资小时跟踪等信息。 相信可能有关于这个问题的有用信息，可在几秒钟内。 Knowing this, you might be more likely to 'check it out!'了解了这一点，你可能更容易检查出来！“

BELIEVE was first placed on the Internet in the Spring of 1997.相信是先放置在互联网上，在1997年的春天。 Since then, there have been an amazing number of visitors to our site!从那时起，已经有游客数量惊人，我们的网站！ It seems that most web-sites quickly brag about how much traffic comes to a site.看来，大多数Web站点迅速吹嘘多少流量网站。 Considering the content of this site, we feel that would be the wrong attitude.考虑到本网站的内容，我们觉得这将是错误的态度。 Large numbers are essentially irrelevant!大批基本上是不相干的！ Our interest is (hopefully!) always in each single visitor, with our efforts being to aid that person to better understand the Lord and religion and Christianity.我们感兴趣的是（希望如此）总是在每个单一的游客，与我们的努力，以帮助人更好地了解上帝和宗教和基督教。 If a person is able to get closer to a point of better committing to God (and Jesus), then our efforts are successful! So, as far as we are concerned, we have had ONE visitor, YOU!如果一个人能够得到更好地向上帝承诺（耶稣），那么我们的努力是成功的！ 所以，只要我们关注，我们已经有一个游客，你！ And, since you are important to God and Jesus, you are very important to us. We think that's the attitude Jesus would want us to have! 而且，因为你是重要的上帝和耶稣，你是对我们非常重要。我们认为这是耶稣会要我们的态度！

Also, we realize that you might be interested in knowing more about the organization that created and operates BELIEVE.同时，我们认识到，你可能有兴趣了解更多有关组织的创建和运作是信。 Our Church, A Christ Walk Church is a relatively normal Protestant Christian Church.我们的教会， 基督步行教会是一个比较正常的基督教新教。 Our A Christ Walk Church - Statement of Faith is very similar to that of most Protestant Churches, although it might be more thoroughly presented!我们的基督步行教会-信仰的声明是非常相似，大多数基督教，虽然它可能是更彻底呈现！ The most noticeable difference between our Church and other Protestant Churches is our special focus on always trying to figure out what Jesus might have said or done in each situation, and then act and speak appropriately.在我们的教会和其他基督教之间的最明显区别是，我们总是试图找出耶稣可能有什么说的或在每一种情况，然后采取行动，说话适当的特别关注。 Basically, the result of this is that our Church seems to have much less dogma than many other Churches.基本上，这样做的结果是，我们的教会似乎已经远远低于许多其他教会的教条。 Instead of applying any rigid formulation of response, we believe it is better to understand and respond to each situation of life individually.的运用刚性制定任何回应，相反我们认为这是更好地理解和响应每个单独生活状况。 This statement should make the entire existence of BELIEVE a lot more logical, because it really fits in with the concept.这条语句应该相信整个存在很多更合乎逻辑的，因为它真正适合的概念。 Each visitor is an individual, unlike anyone else.每个访问者是一个个体，不像其他人。 It is our belief that if we provide sufficient accurate information, each visitor and his/her indwelling Holy Spirit will then be able to Discern the Truth for that person.这是我们的信念，如果我们提供足够准确的信息，每一个访问者和他/她的留置圣灵将能够辨别真相的人。 We have another presentation which may be of interest, where the basic Meaning of Christianity is presented, as understood by our Church, at What Is Christianity, Anyway? 我们有另一个演示文稿，其中可能的利益，提出了基督教的基本含义是，了解我们的教会， 什么是基督教？ We have noticed that recently, bumperstickers are beginning to appear with "WWJD" (What Would Jesus Do?) on them.我们注意到，最近，bumperstickers也开始出现在他们与“WWJD”（耶稣会怎么做？）。 We find that wonderful, very similar to what our Church has always tried to do and Teach.我们发现，美妙的，我们的教会一直试图做和教非常相似。

We are certainly not perfect, and neither is BELIEVE. In this vein, it probably makes sense for us to admit to a significant 'bias' that we know we have! 我们当然不完美，既不是相信，在这方面，它可能是有道理的，我们不得不承认，我们知道我们有一个显着的“偏见”！ BELIEVE currently does NOT contain a presentation on "Collection Plate" or "Donation" or "Mammon" because we are not sure we could "fairly" present such a topic.认为目前并没有包含“收集板”或“捐赠”或“财神”的介绍，因为我们不知道我们可以“公平”目前这样一个主题。 We have somewhat unusual attitudes toward that subject!我们必须朝着这个题目有点不寻常的态度！

Shortly after the Editor of BELIEVE was Saved (at age 19), he was on vacation and attended a Church in Florida.信不信编辑后不久被保存（19岁），他是在休假，并出席了在佛罗里达州的教会。 "New" Christians are all especially enthusiastic, and that was true in this case. “新”的基督徒都特别热情，而且是在这种情况下的真实。 However, during an hour and a half Service, the Minister passed the Collection Plate FIVE times!然而，在一个半小时服务，部长通过收集板的五倍！ They each were for reasonably valid reasons: the normal Collection; a collection to repair the Church parking lot and driveway; a collection for a building project toward having a Sunday School; a collection for a guest Minister; and a collection for a Christian music group that played during the Service.他们每个人的合理正当的理由：正常的集合;基督教音乐组的集合;集合修复教堂的停车场和车道;朝着有一个星期天学校建设项目的收集，收集客人部长发挥在服务。 However, collectively, the experience was offensive to the Editor.然而，集体，经验是进攻编辑。 Without being able to put a finger on exactly what was wrong, it just seemed like something was different from the way Jesus might have wanted it to be.不能够把一个手指，对什么是错的，它只是似乎喜欢的事是从耶稣可能希望它成为的方式不同。

As a consequence of that experience, the Editor, and BELIEVE, have an intense attitude about keeping religious experience and learning as far as possible from money matters.作为一个后果的这些经验，编辑，并相信，有强烈的态度，保持宗教的经验和钱的问题，尽可能学习。 Clearly, each Church MUST pay mortgages and utility bills and the staff's wages, so money must necessarily be present in the operation of each Church.显然，每一个教会必须支付抵押贷款和水电费和员工的工资，所以钱必须在每一个教会的运作。 But we have all seen examples where something has gone wrong and Ministry flies around in personal Learjets and rides around in chauffeured limousines.但我们都看到了一些问题的例子，部，苍蝇的个人Learjets和乘坐绕在司机的豪华轿车。 I guess our attitude is that we wish that the hour or two that we each share in the Lord's House each week, could be entirely focused on religious ideas, and that people would make their Offerings to their Churches without having to be "prodded" by the existence of a Collection Plate!我，我们的态度，我们希望，在一小时或两个，大家每耶和华殿的份额，每星期，可能会被完全的宗教思想集中，和人们会作出，而无需到被“打了招呼：”通过他们的产品，他们的教堂一个收集板的存在！ But that's not realistic!但是，这并不现实！ We just hope that each Church uses good judgment (and consults their Holy Spirit!) regarding all subjects associated with money, in or out.我们只是希望每个教会使用良好的判断力（和征询他们的圣灵！）就与钱有关的所有科目，或缩小。

We see this as a pretty significant bias, and so we didn't feel we could fairly present a page on the subject!我们看到一个非常重要的偏见，所以我们不觉得我们可以公正表达的主题页面！ There are many reasons why your local Church NEEDS the funds from the Collection, so please be generous to them.有许多原因，为什么您当地的教会需要从集合资金，所以请他们慷慨。

We receive enormous amounts of e-mail, and some of it is critical mail from other Protestant Clergy members.我们收到了巨额的电子邮件，它的一些重要的邮件是从其他成员的新教牧师。 In general, such mail attacks us for submitting our visitors to "wolves" ( Matt 7:15; Acts 20:29 ).在一般情况下，这些邮件的攻击我们的访问者提交的“狼”（ 太7:15;徒20:29）。 Their position is that we should intensely and exclusively present OUR perspectives and beliefs on the many subjects included in BELIEVE, and we should NOT include "alternate" perspectives at all!他们的立场是，我们应该强烈和专门介绍中认为包括很多科目上我们的观点和信念，我们不应该包括“备用”的观点，在所有！ They believe that we introduce the possibility of confusion in our visitors by presenting various (seemingly credible) approaches on subjects that are centrally important to Faith.他们相信，我们介绍我们的游客提出的课题，是中央的重要信仰各种看似可信方法混淆的可能性。 They believe that we commit outright sacrilege by openly presenting Catholic and Orthodox and other beliefs!他们相信，我们致力于通过公开展示天主教和东正教和其他信仰的公然亵渎！

Well, they might be right about that, so we cannot defend our actions directly to them!嗯，他们可能是这一权利，所以我们不能捍卫我们的行动直接向他们！ They often also tell us that we are destined for Hell as a result of this aspect of BELIEVE!他们往往还告诉我们，我们是注定的地狱，这方面是信！ We hope that they are wrong about that!我们希望，他们是错的！

We also receive a lot of mail applauding us for our "Ecumenical" approach!我们也收到大量的邮件，我们为我们的“合一”的做法鼓掌！

We tend to think that neither is quite accurate, but for an apparently unusual reason!我们倾向于认为既不是相当准确的，但显然是不寻常的原因！ BELIEVE was created and is presented by our non-Denominational Protestant Christian Church, which is named A Christ Walk Church .相信是创建和由非宗派的基督教新教，被命名为基督步行教会 。 This appears to be important in this area.这似乎是在这一领域的重要。 Our Church has a special emphasis on Christian behavior along with all the standard Christian Teachings.我们的教会有特别强调对基督教的行为以及与所有标准的基督教教义。 We feel that Jesus demonstrated and discussed many "proper behaviors" in addition to the words of His Teachings.我们认为，耶稣证明并讨论了许多“正确行为”，除了他的教诲的话。 As a consequence of this, our Church sees specific importance in the END RESULT of Christian Ministry, basically, the condition of the hearts of those who listen.由于这种后果，我们的教会看到具体的重要性，在基督教部的最终结果，基本上，谁听心的状况。 In our view, virtually the ONLY essential question at the end is "Is your heart Devoutly committed to the Lord?"在我们看来，几乎是唯一在最后的关键的问题是“你的心虔诚致力于主？” We believe that that is the single question Jesus would be interested in, at the point someone is at the Gates of Heaven.我们认为这是耶稣会感兴趣的点，有人在天堂的门口，单一的问题。 We see that as logical, and our Ministry sees ALL Ministry in that light.我们看到，作为逻辑，我部认为在所有光部。 Of course, we want to believe that our methods of Teaching are valid, but we recognize that there might be many other ways a person's heart might be brought to Devotion in the Lord.当然，我们要相信我们的教学方法是有效的，但我们认识到，可能有许多其他方式可能带来一个人的心奉献在主。

We have a "quiz" for you!我们有一个“测验”你！ Virtually all Christians confidently feel that they are "IN" once they are Saved.几乎所有的基督徒自信的感觉，他们是“”一旦它们被保存。 We think that some may be being "optimistic" about this!我们认为，有些人可能会被“乐观”！ Try this: As a mental exercise, in private, list TEN times when you have let the Lord down!试试这个：作为一个精神运动，在私营，名单十倍，当你让主！ Many Christians laugh at this, commenting that they fall short thousands of times, but this exercise is more challenging than you might think.许多基督徒的笑，在此发表评论，他们属于短几千倍，但这次演习是比你想象的更有挑战性。 Just remember that you are considering the Lord, so consider your "standards".只要记住，你正在考虑主，所以考虑你的“标准”。

A person might THINK that he/she is devout, but without an awareness of the many times we humans fall short, there seems the likelihood of a non-Christian arrogance.一个人可能会认为他/她是虔诚的，但没有认识到我们人类功亏一篑多次，似乎有一个非基督教的嚣张气焰的可能性。 We think that awareness of a personal list of ten examples of shortcomings would confirm the status of that person's heart.我们认为，个人名单的十大缺点的例子的认识，将确认该人的心中的地位。 The 'scale' of those incidents would likely vary greatly from individual to individual, and it would remain a private matter between that person and the Lord.的'规模'这些事件可能会相差很大，从个别到个别，它仍然是一个之间，人与上帝的私事。

The point of this exercise is that if you manage to think of ten different specific times you let the Lord down, you're probably on the right track.这次演习的一点是，如果你能想到的十个不同的具体时间，你让主下来，你可能在正确的轨道上。 If you cannot think of any, or struggle to think of a couple, you might want to consider putting more effort into your Faith!如果你不能相信任何，或挣扎一对夫妇认为，你可能要考虑更多的精力把你的信仰！

Of course, he might be right!当然，他可能是正确的！ We have no absolute way of proving him wrong!我们没有绝对的方式证明他错了！ And, if Jesus really DOES run Heaven where many strict "rules of admission" are applied, then, yes, most of us will be "out of luck" in happening to have chosen the "wrong" Church to attend.和，如果耶稣确实运行天堂应用于许多严格的“录取规则”，然后，是的，我们中的大多数将是“运气”的情况选择了“错误”的教会参加。

We see two major problems in that situation.在这种情况下，我们看到两个主要问题。 First, it seems to imply that Jesus is rather "legalistic" in who is allowed into Heaven, and we know from when He was with us that He was violently against the Jews for being legalistic in applying the "Law" of the Old Testament (example: Luke 13:14 ).首先，它似乎暗示耶稣是在谁被允许进入天堂，而不是“墨守成规”，我们知道，当他跟我们说，他是针对犹太人的暴力，在适用“公司法”旧约墨守成规（例如： 路加福音13:14）。 Second, and, we think, even more importantly, is another implication regarding Jesus.其次，我们认为，更重要的，是关于耶稣的另一个含义。 We all believe that Jesus IS Love and Compassion, essentially the very definition of the words!我们都相信耶稣是爱和同情心的，本质上定义的话！ So, our Church, with its special focus on behavioral issues, asks "Would a Compassionate Jesus participate in a Heaven where extremely Devout people who spent a lifetime committed to Him would be denied entry to Heaven?"所以，我们的教会，其行为问题的特别关注，要求“将参加一个富有同情心的耶稣在一个地方度过一生致力于向他非常虔诚的人将被拒绝进入天堂的天堂吗？” Our emphatic response is that He wouldn't and couldn't.我们强调的回应是，他不会和不能。

Yes, we Teach the Two Protestant Sacraments, Baptism and the Eucharist, and we Teach that Good Works spring FROM Christian Faith rather than being necessary to it, and we Baptize and have the other common beliefs of many Protestant Churches.是的，我们教两个新教圣礼，洗礼和圣餐，我们教的优秀作品，春天从基督教信仰，而不是必要，我们施洗，并有其他许多基督教共同的信念。 But we think it would be very arrogant (therefore, non-Christian) to claim that WE alone knew how to prepare individuals for the Presence of the Lord.但我们认为这将是非常傲慢的（因此，非基督教）声称，只有我们知道如何准备个人主面前。 Therefore, we openly applaud ALL Churches that attempt to prepare the hearts of their followers for profound Devotion to the Lord, even when they follow methods which we might not agree with.因此，我们公开赞扬所有教会尝试准备深刻的奉献给主及其追随者的心，甚至当他们遵循的方法，我们可能不同意。

We do not have ANY good explanation as to how the Lord deals with this diversity in Heaven, only that, because of His Compassion, He does!我们没有任何好的解释，作为主处理这天的多样性如何，只因为他的同情心，他不！ So, a Devout Catholic, who was Taught a central importance in doing Good Works as a condition for Salvation (which we Protestants think is very wrong!) would still be welcomed with a Smile into Heaven, whether or not we understand why!因此，一个虔诚的天主教徒，谁教做救世军（我们的新教徒认为是非常错误的！）的条件好作品的一个至关重要的仍然会受到欢迎进入天堂的微笑，我们是否明白，为什么！ Any other result would seem to imply a Lord whose Compassion is not what we want to believe it is.似乎意味着上帝的慈悲是没有什么，我们要相信这是任何其他的结果。

Our conclusion from all this is that, prior to committing one's life to the Lord, a person may freely visit various Houses of Worship.从所有这一切，我们的结论是，之前犯下一个人的生命的主，一个人可以自由地访问崇拜的各种房屋。 Consider the deeper meaning of Baptism.考虑的洗礼，更深一层的含义。 Who did you intend to affect by being Baptized?谁是你打算影响受洗吗？ We hope it was not for friends or family or a Church leadership.我们希望这不是朋友或家人或教会领导。 Our hope is that you (possibly even privately) became Saved (actually, we see that as being Baptized by the Spirit), committed to the Lord, and then were publicly (water) Baptized for only one purpose: To tell the Lord, "I am Yours, and I will forever demonstrate my Devotion TO YOU by strictly following the Rites and beliefs of THIS (your) Church."我们希望你（甚至可能私下），保存（实际上，我们看到，由于受到精神的洗礼），致力于主，然后公开（水）受洗的目的只有一个：告诉主，“我属于你，我将永远证明我奉献给你严格按照（您）的教会的礼仪和信念。“ As of that moment, each believer has the strict responsibility to follow THAT Church.至于那一刻，每个信徒都有严格遵循教会的责任。 You have essentially told the Lord "Judge me by THIS standard."你已经基本上向“法官通过本标准的我。”主 There is NO leeway.有没有回旋余地。 No room for interpretation on your part!没有你的一部分解释的余地​​！ If you happened to have chosen a Church that requires you to ask "How high?"如果碰巧选择了一个教会需要你问“有多高？” when it tells you to jump, then you MUST, not for the Church, but to keep demonstrating to the Lord your total Obedience to Him.当它告诉你跳，你必须，而不是为教会，但为了保持主你总服从他证明。 Just because a Church down the block does not require jumping, you have NO room to complain, and just better get good at jumping!仅仅因为一个教堂下来块不需要跳，你有没有抱怨的房间，只是更好地在跳好！ Your Personal Promise to the Lord is on the line!您的个人主的承诺是就行了！

From the moment you are Baptized, IN A SPECIFIC CHURCH, then ONLY that Church's Christian Rites and beliefs have real meaning for you.的那一刻起，你的洗礼，在一个特定的教会，那么，基督教教会的仪式和信仰，只对你有真正的意义。 Hopefully, your Church has valid beliefs and Rites.希望你的教会有有效的信仰和仪式。 Beliefs and procedures in some other Church may be VERY different, and they may even seem incompatible with what you must follow.在其他一些教会的信仰和程序可能非常不同，他们甚至可能似乎你必须遵循不相容。 FOR YOU, it is irrelevant what the Christians in those other Churches must do. However, you should encourage them to be very Devout in their following of their own Church's Rites and beliefs. At the moment they were Baptized in those Churches, they made their own solemn Promise to the Lord to forever demonstrate their Faith to Him.对你来说，它是无关的其他教会的基督徒如何是， 然而，你应该鼓励他们到是在他们的他们自己的教会的仪式和信仰以下非常虔诚。目前，他们被那些教会受洗，他们作出其主自己的庄严承诺永远展示他们的信仰他​​。 (The exception to this are clearly aberrant groups that claim to be Churches.) （例外情况明显异常，声称是教会团体。）

Some people have expressed concern about this regarding what would happen if they move or otherwise decide to attend a different Church, that these comments might seem to suggest that Salvation or Baptism would no longer have effect!有些人曾表示关注有关这方面会发生什么，如果他们移动或以其他方式决定参加不同的教会，这些意见可能似乎表明，救世军或洗礼，将不再有效果！ No, that is not the concept we tried to describe here!不，这不是我们试图在这里描述的概念！ We believe that in those situations, a simple and private conversation with the Lord would inform Him that you now wish to be evaluated by the new set of rules and behaviors of the new Church.我们相信，在这些情况下，简单的和私人的谈话与主会通知他，你现在要评估一套新的规则和行为的新教会。

We might have another possible analogy to use here.我们可能有另一种可能的比喻用在这里。 When one gets married, one makes certainly commitments to another person, and we even then say "forever".当一个人结婚，肯定承诺给另一个人，我们甚至说“永远”。 However, there are some individuals that either immediately or later start thinking and behaving as though they had never made such a commitment, that they are somehow free to be "making up their own rules" to follow.然而，也有一些个人，立即或稍后开始思考和行为，但他们从来没有作出这样的承诺，他们是某种自由“作出了自己的规则”遵循。 That is clearly unacceptable.这显然​​是不可接受的。 We feel that it is critically important that a person not have the freedom to "decide what rules must be followed regarding the Lord."我们觉得这是非常重要的，一个人没有自由“决定主必须遵循什么规则。” So we insist that the existing set of rules regarding behaviors and attitudes of an existing Church be followed instead.因此，我们坚持现有的一套规则，现有教会的行为和态度，而不是遵循。

So, that is our concept, and our ONLY defense to those attackers who criticize us for being in league with the wolves!所以，这就是我们的理念，我们唯一的防御那些批评我们在联赛中与狼的攻击！ Many have directly implied that we might as well buy shovels now, as we will spend Eternity stoking the furnaces in Hell!许多直接暗示，倒不如买铁锹现在，我们将花费永恒煽动在地狱的熔炉！ And, again, we have no absolute way of knowing or proving that they are wrong, except our Faith in what WE believe the Lord to be, and that He IS Love and Compassion.并再次，我们必须知道或证明他们是错的，除了我们的信念，我们相信主，没有绝对的方法，而且他是爱和同情。

These few paragraphs might sound like a "commercial" on our part.这些几段可能听起来像一个“商业”对我们的一部分。 They are not intended as such.他们不打算这样。 But, we have received a number of such criticisms, and felt it necessary to allow readers to know both about the criticisms and our reasons for BELIEVE being the very "open" form that it is.但是，我们已经收到了这样的批评，并认为有必要让读者了解有关的批评和信是非常“开放”的形式，这是我们的理由。 In the event that this represents a 'bias' we felt you should know about it!中，这代表着“偏见”的事件，我们认为你应该知道这件事！

One final comment about the "confusion" we might be causing and / or the "wolves" business: Another central belief of our Church is that the Holy Spirit is RIGHT THERE with EVERY visitor to BELIEVE, whether Christian, Seeker, or skeptic.圣灵是与每一位参观者，相信无论是基督徒，导引头，或持怀疑态度，“混乱”我们可能会引起和/或“狼”的经营最后的评论：我们教会的另一个中央信念。 Our belief is that that Holy Spirit will give guidance to each individual visitor, regarding the discernment of Truth.我们的信念是，圣灵会给予指导到每一个人的游客，明辨真理。 Therefore, we believe that, when we present various Christian scholars' broadly accepted views on our many subjects, the Holy Spirit will lead each visitor in finding the "correct" one for that person.因此，我们相信，当我们提出各种“基督教学者广泛接受我们的很多科目的意见，圣灵会导致在寻找的那个人”正确“的每位游客。 This is why we don't have reservations about presenting positions that our Church happens to not agree with, and why we feel we can present such views fairly and honestly.这就是为什么我们没有提出的立场，我们的教会发生不同意，为什么我们觉得我们可以提出这样的观点，公平和诚实的保留。 And, as a responsibility to Jesus, we feel we are REQUIRED to do so! ，并为耶稣的责任，我们认为我们必须这样做！

So, if you should find anything in BELIEVE that appears to disagree with the Teachings of your Church, we recommend relying on those Teachings first, but possibly asking informed questions at the right time and in the right place.所以，如果你要找到任何认为似乎不同意你的教会的教诲，我们建议首先对这些教诲的依赖，但可能要求在合适的时间和知情的问题，在正确的地方。 They probably have EXCELLENT reasons for their beliefs and Teachings!他们可能有自己的信仰和教义的原因！

Now, whether our approach represents an "Ecumenical" perspective, we do not know.现在，我们的做法是否代表“合一”的角度，我们不知道。 The result is similar, of a tolerance and acceptance of other Churches, but we see it as being for a rather different reason than most Ecumenical efforts are initiated.结果是相似的，其他教会的宽容和接受，但我们看到，它比大多数合一的努力发起一个相当不同的原因。 And we don't see need for "conformance" to some common set of beliefs, but rather a recognition that the Lord Smiles on ALL of the diversity of Christian approaches.我们不看到需要的“一致性”的一些共同的信念，而是承认主，所有的基督教方式的多样性上微笑。 We acknowledge that God's Plan for us is far beyond our capability to completely understand.我们承认，上帝对我们的计划，远远超出我们的能力是完全理解。

Our impression is that Churches generally concentrate on the specific "means" toward becoming a Christian and we tend to concentrate more on the "end" of actually BEING a Devout Christian.我们的印象是，教会一般集中在特定的“手段”，走向成为一个基督徒，我们往往集中在“结束”，实际上是一个虔诚的基督徒。 We don't see that it means we disagree, but just that we do not see cause to argue among Churches in how they each accomplish it!我们没有看到，它意味着我们不同意，但只是我们没有看到在教堂中辩称，他们如何完成的事业！ Actually, we tend to see value in WHATEVER a Church feels it needs to do to prepare the hearts of its Congregation members, so we are actually a fan of (nearly) all of them!其实，我们往往看到的价值，在任何一所教堂的感觉，它需要做准备的众成员的心，所以我们其实是一个风扇（几乎）所有这些！

You probably consider yourself to be one of the "children of God", don't you?你可能认为自己是“神的孩子”，不要你呢？ More than that, a child of the One, True God, Whom Abraham worshipped and Who communicated with Moses to provide us with what we commonly call the Ten Commandments?不止于此，在一个孩子，真神，亚伯拉罕敬拜与摩西传达给我们提供与我们通常所说的十诫？ There are a LOT of people who would make those statements!有很多人谁将使这些语句！ Protestant Christians carefully study the Bible (Old Testament and New Testament) to learn how to Worship Him.基督教徒仔细研究“圣经”（旧约和新约），以了解如何崇拜他。 Catholic Christians use a combination of the Bible and Traditions to do the same.天主教徒使用“圣经”和传统的结合，做同样的。 Jews use only the Old Testament, which they call the Torah, in order to know how to Worship God.犹太人只使用旧约，他们称之为“托拉，才能知道如何敬拜神。 Muslims use a combination of part of that same Old Testament, which they call Taurah, along with their Koran, to learn how to Worship the very same God, Whom they call Allah.穆斯林使用相同的旧约，他们称之为Taurah，连同他们的“古兰经”，以了解如何拜同样的神，他们称之为真主的一部分相结合。 All of these people consider themselves to be "children of God", the One God of Abraham.所有这些人都认为自己是“神的儿女”，亚伯拉罕的一个神。 Interesting?有意思吗？ Yet many of these children of God absolutely insist that the others are all Devil worshippers and therefore sinful!然而，许多神这些孩子的绝对坚持，别人都是魔鬼崇拜者，因此有罪！ Many Christians, who actually know virtually zilch regarding what Muslims believe, get ferociously vicious at ME for pointing out that Jesus, the Father, Jehovah, YHWH, Allah and many other Names ALL refer to the One True God Whom Abraham first Worshipped.许多基督徒，究竟是谁知道几乎时时刻刻就什么穆斯林相信，我得到猛烈的恶性指出的父亲，耶稣，耶和华，耶和华，阿拉和许多其他的名字都指一的真神谁亚伯拉罕第一次敬拜。 They never have enough background to explain WHY or HOW the God of Abraham who WE Worship is somehow exactly opposite of the God of Abraham that Muslims worship many times every day!他们永远不会有足够的背景解释为什么或如何亚伯拉罕的神，我们崇拜谁是亚伯拉罕的神不知何故完全相反，穆斯林礼拜每天多次！

Actually, we suspect that many Christians will be amazed to find that Muslims' Holy Koran tells the stories of Adam and Abraham and Israel and Moses and many others on whom our Faith is based.事实上，我们怀疑，许多基督徒会惊讶地发现，穆斯林的“古兰经”告诉亚当和亚伯拉罕和以色列摩西的故事和我们的信心是基于对其中的许多人。 It seems that few Christians realize that their Allah is One and the Same God as Who the Jews call YHWH (Yahweh, or Jehovah) and Whom we Christians call Father.似乎很少基督徒意识到，他们的真主是和神一样的犹太人呼吁耶和华（雅威，或耶和华）和我们基督徒呼吁父亲。 Certainly, their stories have differences from our Bible, but the many similarities are something to consider!当然，他们的故事从我们的圣经差异，但有许多相似之处，都是要考虑的事情！ Again, we know that Jesus would be absolutely confident that Christians would not have their Faith weakened by learning about such things, but it might assist all of us to learn to get along better together.再次，我们知道耶稣是绝对有信心，基督徒不会减弱，学习这样的事情有自己的信仰，但它可能会帮助我们学习更好地结合在一起相处。

Actually, we note that God originally forbade anyone to even say His Name!事实上，我们注意到，神最初禁止任何人，甚至说他的名字！ It would probably be extremely healthy if we did that today.它可能会是非常健康的，如果我们做到了今天。 A Christian would then say that he/she Worships "the One, True God of Abraham, Moses and Adam."一个基督教会，然后说，他/她崇拜“之一，亚伯拉罕，摩西和亚当真神。” Which is EXACTLY the same thing that Jews and Muslims would say!这是完全一样的东西，犹太人和穆斯林会说！ The later appearance of that One True God walking the Earth as Jesus, tends to cause massive confusion, both in many Christians and in most non-Christians.后来一真神，耶稣步行地球的外观，往往造成大规模的混乱，双方在许多基督徒在大多数非基督徒。 Many Christians are so focused on Jesus that they forget that the First Commandment made very clear that there is actually One True God, which Jesus therefore has to also be!许多基督徒都太专注于耶稣，他们忘了，第一诫说得很清楚，其实是有一真神，耶稣因此也！ Non-Christians (Jews and Muslims) are more focused on Moses' Ten Commandments and therefore concentrate on the "One True God" aspect and think that Christians are Worshipping "somebody else" and therefore, very properly, find error in that as seeming to conflict with the First Commandment.非基督徒（犹太人和穆斯林）更侧重于摩西的十诫，因此集中在“一真神”的方面，并认为基督徒崇拜“别人”，因此，非常正确，似乎要找到该错误冲突与第一诫。

On this point, the Koran and Islam hold Jesus in very high esteem, considering Him a Prophet, and even expecting Him to some day Return!在这一点上，“古兰经”和伊斯兰教举行耶稣在非常崇高的敬意，考虑到他的先知，甚至期待他有一天返回！ It is our suspicion that Muhammad (the initiator of Islam) misunderstood the Christian concept of the Trinity.穆罕默德（伊斯兰教的始作俑者）误解基督教的三位一体的概念，它是我们的怀疑。 At several places in their Koran, there are statements that clearly indicate that Muhammad thought that Christians considered Jesus to be a SECOND God, and Muhammad aggressively defended the First Commandment statement that there is One True God (which all Muslims repeat at least five times every single day).在他们的“古兰经”中的几个地方，有陈述清楚地表明， 穆罕默德认为基督徒认为耶稣是第二个上帝，穆罕默德积极地捍卫第一诫表，有一的真神 （所有穆斯林重复至少5次，每次单日）。 It is our suspicion that if Muhammad had fully understood the concept of the Trinity (One God), he would have realized that the One True God had Chosen to walk the earth six hundred years earlier as Jesus!这是我们的怀疑，如果穆罕默德已经完全明白三位一体的概念（一神），他就已经意识到，唯一的真神选择了步行地球耶稣早六百年！ With that adjustment, Christianity and Islam become surprisingly similar in basic beliefs!与调整，基督教和伊斯兰教成为基本信念惊人地相似！

Their belief system seems to have a number of errors in it regarding Christianity, such as the impression that the Christian Trinity is Father, Jesus, and the Virgin Mary!他们的信仰系统，似乎有许多关于基督教在它的错误，如三位一体的印象是父亲，耶稣，圣母玛利亚！ (Koran Sura 5.116) This is interesting, since Muslims believe that every word of the Koran is precisely accurate because it came directly from God (Allah) to Muhammad. （古兰经苏拉5.116），这是有趣的，因为穆斯林认为“古兰经”的每一句话恰恰是准确的，因为它直接来自上帝（真主）穆罕默德。 Our point is that it is not nearly as "foreign" as many people think.我们的观点是，这是几乎没有“外国”，许多人认为。

While we're on this tangent, we'd like to ask Christian readers why Muslims insist on facing Mecca for all their prayers!虽然我们在此切线的时候，我们想问问基督教读者为什么穆斯林面对麦加为他们祈祷坚持！ Do you know?你知道吗？ It's because of a single thing, a building in Mecca, called the Kaaba.这是因为一个单一的东西，称为天房，在麦加建设。 Muslims believe that Abraham (yup, OUR Abraham!) built the Kaaba, and they recognize Abraham as being the very first "true" believer, because he was willing to sacrifice his own son for the Lord.穆斯林相信，亚伯拉罕（啊，我们的亚伯拉罕！）建造的圣堂，他们承认亚伯拉罕是第一个“真正”的信徒，因为他是主愿意牺牲自己的儿子。 We find that interesting!我们觉得很有趣！ Each person is free to interpret such things however they wish!每个人解释这样的事情，但是他们希望是免费的！

If this interests you, we have created a small presentation which is absolutely compatible with all Christian beliefs and is also completely compatible with all Muslim beliefs.如果对此感兴趣，我们已经创造了一个小的演示，这是完全兼容所有的基督教信仰，也是完全兼容与所有穆斯林的信仰。 It is at: Compatibility .它是在兼容性 。

Obviously, these comments do not include the militant terrorist Muslims, who have grave errors in their understanding of their own Islam.显然，这些意见不包括激进的穆斯林恐怖分子，他们了解自己的伊斯兰教的严重错误。 They don't seem to be aware of the surprisingly peaceful tone of what Islam actually tries to teach.他们似乎不知道是伊斯兰教实际上试图教出奇的平和的语调。 They seem to ignore the many times where their Koran emphasizes brotherhood with Jews and Christians, as brother "believers of the Book (the Torah, the first five Books of the Bible)".他们似乎忽略了他们的“古兰经”强调兄弟与犹太人和基督徒兄弟“的书（律法，第一个五年书籍的圣经）的信徒”，很多次。 It is very sad that the vast majority of peace-loving Muslims are painted to seem so evil by the actions of a small number of extremely dangerous people.这是很可悲的，绝大多数都是爱好和平的穆斯林画由少数一个极其危险的人的行动似乎如此邪恶。 It is certainly true that we think that Muslims have many incorrect ideas and beliefs, particularly regarding Jesus, Mary and Christians.这是千真万确的，我们认为，穆斯林有许多不正确的思想和信念，特别是关于耶稣，玛利亚和基督徒。 But it is interesting to note the many similarities, too.但有趣的是，要注意的，也有许多相似之处。
