中国教会将要面对的明天
The Chinese Church and the Global Body of Christ
以斯拉金 这是我的荣耀到这里来讲。我是在北京牧养锡安教会，也在神学院的工作。 我在中国北方出生。 1986考上北京大学。在我3年级时候我经验天安门事件，两个月以后我自己上教会。两个月以后有人向我传福音。我在绝望的秋天，在一个三自教堂的角落接受了耶稣为救主。就在当天的晚上我知道怎样过我的生命。我在1992年退下我在外资公司里的工作而把自己奉献给上帝。我是第一个在文化大革命以后拥有大学学士学位的人进神学院。我在神学院里修读，教导了7年，我之后服事了三自教会10年。在2002年我离开工作来富勒神学院读书，2007年我回国以后开始了叫锡安教会的家庭教会。我在三自教会服事了超过10年，我知道这里不享神的喜悦， 所以我回国后才开始锡安教会。我在2007年的办公室的地方里举行的锡安教会里遇见一位从北美回来的中国事工者。他对我说教会可以维持超过3个月是个神迹。我们的教会有300平方米。他说北京从来没这么大的基督教聚会礼堂，你是挑战中国的共产党的底线。他说你的不过是家庭教会。除此以外，中国的家庭教会没有按时奉献的传统，我们如何应付每个月4000块的租金？ 可是我们已经在那里超过4年半。我们经历很多风风雨雨和挑战，但我们还在这里。我们的崇拜面积已经增加到800平方米。每周有700多人来参加崇拜。在清华和师大我们成功地建立2间教堂。我们也差遣了2个宣教士家庭到兰州和云南。他们都成功地在当地建立起家庭教会。有从别的中国教会探访我们并说，’金牧师，你们一定是有后台支持你们的。’我回答说，’我真的有一位特别的后台是在天上的。’ 我在四年半以前开始这教会的时候，我没法想象今天看到的情况。每星期我们有十到二十位新人来聚会，其中八成是一生中第一次来到教会的。当我在三自教会服事的时候，出席的会众年纪比我大，我是最年轻的。但是在今天的教会里，他们全都比我年轻。他们有良好的教育水平和职业。上帝在中国的工作真是奇妙。正如以弗所书一18-19说，’18 并 且 照 明 你 们 心 中 的 眼 睛 ， 使 你 们 知 道 他 的 恩 召 有 何 等 指 望 ， 他 在 圣 徒 中 得 的 基 业 有 何 等 丰 盛 的 荣 耀 ；19 并 知 […]

[…] of old, Ming Dynasty Chinese furniture and we have a couple of pieces. However, when we were younger and less well off, we bought a lot of cheap furniture. We were always disappointed when these would quickly break down. On the other hand, the several old pieces of Chinese furniture that we own–several hundred […]

A New Understanding of the Relationship between Christianity and Chinese Culture
[…] have monopolized questions of Christian identity in China since the 1980s, and the result is a church that while not necessarily “less Chinese” is certainly more global. Cheap air travel, labor migration, tourism, study abroad, and the Internet bind the villagers to the popular culture of global Catholicism even though their church remains formally […]
True Luxury
[…] John 12 reveals to us that the people who chased after glory from man got what glory they were able to get, but it was only a cheap knockoff. We think that if we are able to string together sufficient honor, achievements, beauty, bodily build, and intelligence, then we can live a “luxury life.” […]

Here was the rub between learning from America, depending on US consumers buying affordable ( cheap) Chinese goods, and becoming independent and not sold-out to America’s democratic ideology or enmeshed in what was seen as American imperialism. Pomfret notes both the Chinese […]
The Chinese Church May Be More Complex than You Thought
[…] profile confrontation with the authorities, others prefer a low-profile, less confrontational stance. There are also some churches who embrace and preach the prosperity gospel, and substitute “ cheap grace” for bearing the cross. For the house church in China, the threat of consumerism and materialism is real and growing. In addition, there are plenty […]
