基督之死中罪的死亡
The Death of Death in the Death of Christ
约翰·欧文 / John Owen
简介 Summary
欧文最著名的神学巨著，对限定救赎（特定救赎）教义的经典阐述。作者以无与伦比的逻辑严密性和圣经根据，论证基督的死只为选民而献，驳斥了普世救赎论的各种观点。全书标题本身就是神学立论：在基督的死中，罪已经死亡，因此不存在基督为之而死却仍然沉沦的人。欧文的论证深刻影响了改革宗救赎论的发展，被誉为限定救赎教义最重要的学术辩护。这部作品代表了清教徒神学思辨的最高水准。
Owen's most famous theological masterpiece, the classic exposition of limited atonement (particular redemption) doctrine. With unparalleled logical rigor and biblical foundation, the author argues that Christ's death was offered only for the elect, refuting various universalist views. The book's title itself embodies the theological argument: in Christ's death, sin has died, therefore no one for whom Christ died can perish. Owen's argumentation profoundly influenced Reformed soteriology development and is hailed as limited atonement doctrine's most important scholarly defense. This work represents the pinnacle of Puritan theological speculation.
