Typical of what Ji objects to is a 1998 policy (recently given new prominence) known as the "Theological Construction Campaign." It is promulgated in leading Chinese seminaries - and can be summed up by what are known as the "Four Againsts": the Bible is not the revealed Word, Jesus was not born of a virgin, the resurrection is a myth, and there is no "second coming." Along with this view is a strong push among official Protestant church leaders to eradicate the concept of individual "salvation." To the essentially conservative Chinese Protestant mind, such ideas are an effort to "de-Christianize Christianity," says one Guangdong pastor.

Practically indistinguishible from many seminaries in the U.S. Ah, the joys of unity.

The Hutou church was officially founded in 1983, though it started with more than a thousand Chinese unofficial believers.

Actually, the church in Hutou was founded in about 1880 by my great-great-grandfather, the Rev. Dr. Nathan Sites, Methodist missionary from Ohio. We are fortunate to have his journal and many pictures and mementoes from the thirty-five years he spent evangelizing in Fujian province, which was then called Fukien.
