什麼是教會?什麼是更完美的教會?這不是三言兩語就說得完的,整本《神學鋼要‧卷六》就是想回答這兩個問題。
一提到教會,讀者即刻想到他自己的教堂和曾經崇拜過和觀光過的教堂,以及座落於全世界各處的教堂。它們不論是從年久失修、「外面下大雨,裡面下小雨」的教堂,或到羅馬城美侖美煥、滿佈著價值連城藝術品的聖彼得堂;其中有各式各樣,大的小的,建築宏偉的、簡單的,無數的教堂。它們只是教堂,一所房屋,禮拜、聚會、活動的場所。它們不是教會。中文稱之謂教堂,頗為恰當。「堂」字從「土」;好像,屋、城、堡、境等等都是從「土」,是一個地方。外界人士或初來教會的慕道友重視教堂,但是信徒卻看重教會。
本書深入淺出的寫作,除了對神學的讀者有興趣以外,包括教會的工作者,牧師,長執,及一般教友也可以閱讀。某些內容對華文讀者而言也許認為作者的觀點略嫌開放一點,然而信徒總應該從寬闊處來看一切的問題,對嗎?因此,連不完全同意本書觀點的讀者也應該試著閱讀本書的內容,更何況絕大部分是介紹一般性的教會觀。
作者期望本書能對所有的教友都有若干貢獻,包括天主教、基督教 (窄義的稱呼) 中的歷史性教會、福音派,和靈恩派的教會都有些貢獻!
