The confession of ‘God, the Father almighty’ in the Apostles’ and Nicene Creeds can be interpreted as offering a progressively more focused characterization of the First Person of the Trinity, such that ‘Father’ clarifies the meaning of ‘God’, and the force of ‘almighty’ is controlled by the meaning of ‘Father’. The results of such an exegesis accentuate divine transcendence in a way that raises questions about theological claims to natural knowledge of God. More specifically, they suggest that the very comprehensiveness of God's relationship to the world implied by divine almightiness blocks any direct line of inference from creation to Creator.

“上帝,全能的父亲”:神学附注

使徒和尼西亚信经中对“上帝,全能的父”的承认可以被解释为提供了对三位一体第一人称的逐渐更加集中的表征,例如“父亲”澄清了“上帝”的含义,而“全能”之力,受“父”之意所支配。这种解经的结果以某种方式突出了上帝的超越性,从而引发了关于对上帝的自然知识的神学主张的问题。更具体地说,他们认为,上帝的全能所暗示的上帝与世界关系的非常全面性阻止了从创造到创造者的任何直接推论。
