本文考察已故基督教宣道會宗派代表華人神學家滕近輝牧師（1922-2013年）對其他傳統宗教包括天主教、猶太教及本土儒、釋、道三教的觀念。面對六十年代以來的天主教與基督教的聯合運動，滕牧師反對基督教跟天主教聯合，提倡基督教會效法基督身體和教導，堅持福音信仰的信心立場，追求宗派協作合一，保持多元特色，擺脫宗派主義。滕牧師一貫地按照聖經真理，對於天主教、猶太教及中國儒釋道三教等其他宗教，取捨有「道」（基督真理）。他一方面採取理性開放態度對話交流，因應教會擴展需要，借用其優越或有效之處，藉以促進基督教發展，並向異教徒傳教。另一方面，他從多元角度客觀批判諸宗教在多方面違背真理，遠遜於基督真道，宜加摒棄防範，確保基督教的純正信仰。滕牧師對「他教」取捨有「道」之神學觀，既是神學界反思基督信仰和跟異教徒對話傳教的重要資鑑，也反映了當代華人基督教界對其他宗教文化的開明而謹慎立場、批判的取態，以及跟諸宗教的活躍互動交流實態。

ABSTRACT

This paper examines the conception of the traditional religions of Catholicism, Judaism and the Chinese Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism by Rev. Philip Teng, a renowned Chinese theologian of Christian and Missionary Alliance. Faced with the Ecumenical Movement of the Catholic church and Christian church since 1960, Rev. Teng encouraged the Christian church to maintain the evangelical position to pursue the union of different Christian denominations with different features, instead of the union with the Catholic church. He has consistently been adopting and rejecting the religious and moral elements of the above religions for the Christian life and faith according to the biblical truth or the gospel of Jesus Christ. To meet the changing needs of the Chinese churches and their development, he suggested the Christian churches to be open to dialogue and exchange with the other religions, learn their strengths and adopt their successful approaches, and even preach to these pagans. On the other hand, he criticized that these religions entrenched upon the truth in several ways and were far from the Christian truth, and therefore should be abandoned and alerted by the Christians to uphold the purity of the Christian faith. His theology of accepting or rejecting the elements of other religions based on the Christian truth serves as an important reference for reflecting on the Christian faith and dialogue and preaching to the pagans. It also remarkably reflected the open-mined but prudent position and critical attitude of the Chinese Christian community towards the other religions, and their active dialogue and interaction in the contemporary era.
