From a young age, till death chinese are constantly educated to follow your supreme leaders without questioning them. For better and for worse, the Chinese Christians apply this thinking to God, becoming very loyal followers, but also hardly ever questioning their pastor if his teaching are out of step.And about this article? It's really about one church, a controversial church. It does not represent modern Chinese Christianity at all. And is backed up by primary standing up for human rights (no registration, no cameras, no Chinese flag), and a zeal of turning whole of China into a Christian nation. But I'm not in prison, and they are, so my opinion has little weight anymore among ignorant people. Yet I also experience spiritual life daily, and things on the ground look completely different. There is a secular book released last year, called "Souls of China" By Ian Johnson. Chapter 21: Chengdu the new Calvinists (and it's historical Calvin of Geneva, not modern day reformed faith) And Chapters 25 and 26, really explain the zeal of these Christians, mixed with pride to change China into a Christian country. |

Read this verse carefully:Now concerning the betrothed, I have no command from the Lord, but I give my judgment as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy. I think that in view of the present distress it is good for a person to remain as he is. This is what I mean, brothers: the appointed time has grown very short. From now on, let those who have wives live as though they had none, (1 Corinthians 7:25, 26, 29 ESV) I really think it's interesting that Paul mentions the hard times that the church in Corinth is experiencing.... but yet.. He still rebukes them, and tries to offer accountability to them. Sadly no such thing exists for churches like the "Church of Christ in Nigeria". There is zero evidence that this church is nothing more than a charity. Persecution sucks, but at the same time, these are evil, unbelieving, satanic congregations that lead even more sinners to hell. I'm surprised that Christians are not concerned about the Church's spiritual state, but instead focus on it's physical state. |
