圣约护教学
Covenantal Apologetics
K.斯科特·奥利芬特 / K. Scott Oliphint
简介 Summary
K.斯科特·奥利芬特（K. Scott Oliphint）承继范·蒂尔传统的改革宗护教学著作。作者以圣约神学为基础，发展了"圣约护教学"的方法论，强调护教学必须以圣经启示为前提，而不能依赖中性的理性。全书批判了古典护教学和证据主义护教学的哲学基础，主张真正的护教学应当展现基督教世界观的内在一致性和解释力。奥利芬特特别强调护教学的目标不是说服不信者，而是为信仰提供理性的辩护，荣耀神的真理。这部著作为前提主义护教学提供了更加系统和平衡的理论框架。
K. Scott Oliphint's Reformed apologetic work continuing Van Til tradition. Based on covenantal theology, the author develops "covenantal apologetics" methodology, emphasizing that apologetics must presuppose biblical revelation rather than relying on neutral reason. The book critiques philosophical foundations of classical and evidentialist apologetics, arguing that true apologetics should demonstrate Christianity's internal coherence and explanatory power. Oliphint particularly emphasizes that apologetics' goal is not persuading unbelievers but providing rational defense for faith, glorifying God's truth. This work provides more systematic and balanced theoretical framework for presuppositionalist apologetics.
