标题[心得]艾美斯:心灵与诚实
时间Sun Jun 29 03:10:40 2008
约翰福音 4:23: "那真正拜父的、 要用心灵和诚实拜他"
纳尼亚故事的最後之战当中,”艾美斯”坚持寻求真理与诚实,
他对阿司能没有完整的认识,但仍受到阿司能(象徵基督)称许,允许进入天国。
”艾美斯”一名是希伯来文,”真理,诚实,坚定..”的意思。
我认为这种命名的创作动机,可能与约翰福音第四章有关联。
如同撒玛利亚妇人,因为生长环境而无法获得完整正确的神学认知,艾美斯也是如此,
但是依照心灵与诚实(希腊文语意也可做”诚实的心灵”或”真理的圣灵”),
真神还是可以向他们启示,或是配合罗马书所说”良心律法的审判”,使他们得救。
完整的原着”最後之战”故事否定了”多元宗教论”(pluralism)。
故事中代表着”多元宗教论”的,就是”泰西能”混合宗教,
由宗教骗徒老猿猴,勾结卡洛门的军事侵略者,与经济压榨者,共同创立,
主张”泰西能”= 泰西 = 阿司能。
故事中没有提到任何一个信仰这种宗教的人,最後可以进天国。
C.S. Lewis, John Wesley, Billy Graham的主张都属於inclusivism。
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emeth
Emeth is the name of a Calormene character from C. S. Lewis's book The Last
Battle (from the Chronicles of Narnia series). Being Calormene, Emeth was
raised to follow Tash, the antithesis of Aslan, and did so whole-heartedly.
In spite of this, Emeth manages to travel to "Aslan's country" during the
final destruction of Narnia, and is welcomed by Aslan. This has caused some
controversy with readers who count him a devil-worshiper. Others have used it
to illuminate Lewis' views on the theology of salvation, his soteriology.
Re the latter, Emeth is an emphatically good Calormene, whose name derives
from
Emet, a Hebrew word that has been variously translated as
"truth,"
"firmness," "veracity," (and similar) when used in the Christian Bible. Thus
Lewis denotes Emeth as one who prizes objective truth above all, and Jesus
revealed: "I am the Truth" (John 14:6). Therefore Emeth (lover of Truth)
ignorantly served the demon Tash but did so as a Narnian might well serve the
True God Aslan — dutifully and with love and devotion, to the best of his
knowledge interacting receptively with any truly divine light given him —
and was thereby allowed to ascend to Aslan's perfect Narnia. This literary
character's plot line thus depicts the theology known as
individual
soteriological inclusivism, which
denies as heretical the concept of
religious pluralism (that
both Aslan/Christ and Tash/demon are similar
"Tashlan" in the book) yet maintains that some individuals within evil cults
can still be saved by Christ.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusivism
Inclusivism, one of several approaches to understanding the relationship
between religions, asserts that while
one set of beliefs is absolutely true,
other sets of beliefs are at least partially true. It stands in contrast to
exclusivism, which asserts that only one way is true and all others are in
error, and religious pluralism, which asserts that all beliefs are equally
valid within a believer's particular context.
Supporters of inclusivism include: John Wesley, Billy Graham, and C. S. Lewis.
