All Church power arises from the indwelling of the Spirit; therefore those in whom the Spirit dwells are the seat of Church power. But the Spirit dwells in the whole Church, and therefore the whole Church is the seat of Church power.

  • -- Charles Hodge 霍奇

教会的一切力量,都是从圣灵里面发出来的。所以那灵住在里面的人,就是教会掌权的根基。但圣灵住在全教会,所以全教会就是教会权能的所在。
