罗马教会在中古时期形成一股巨大势力,渗入当时欧洲社会生活各个层面;这一时期,有一个相当微妙的问题值得注意,就是当时教会跟政府之间的关系。虽然政教纠纷一直是教会历史当中的一个重要课题,但中古时期这个问题特别突出,争执焦点集中于“地方主教委任权”。

何以地方主教委任权会引发政教矛盾呢?透过李振群博士《透视教会春秋》一书我们看到,根本原因在于——当时教会在政治及社会生活各个层面都有深度参与,所以,地方主教的观点立场极大影响一国人民对国家政策的态度,因而各地王侯无不绞尽脑汁要把“自己人”放到地方主教的位置上;而这,往往又跟罗马教会的立场、利益相左,以致冲突不断。

直到中古盛期将近结束时,欧洲政教双方终于找到大家都能够认可的折中方案。一方面,确定教会有权选择自己的主教,但同时,选出的主教必须宣誓效忠国家,得到国王的认可。

思考:

站在这世界的统治者面前,耶稣基督曾说:“我的国不属这世界;我的国若属这世界,我的臣仆必要争战……只是我的国不属这世界。”(约翰福音18章)

听众朋友,结合今天所学的这一段历史,你如何理解出自耶稣基督之口的这句话?

1 Corinthians 6: 18

 

18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, 20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
