Abundant Grace

Huihong Tsang, Master of Divinity, Vice President (Research) Huang Fuguang, and classmate Ye Tangjian have received full grace from their two years of full-time theological study, and I would like to share some of my insights here. Grace: Knowing God and Salvation History If I don’t know God, how can I experience Him? How can I speak of a God whom I have not experienced? If I don’t know God, even though I belong to Christ and even become a preacher, how can I live out the life in Christ? Therefore, during this period of further study, every time I understood the mysteries of the Trinity more deeply and comprehensively, the joy and satisfaction I received cannot be described in words.

A Road of Mission, A Path of Theology, and A Way of Life

Ye Tangjian, Master of Divinity, Missionary Journey The year I entered the seminary, I was moved at the same time and began to feel the burden of missionary work. After receiving the seal, I cried in the mission meeting and raised my hands to respond to the call. The tears were not due to sadness, but because I saw the urgent need in the mission field. On the one hand, I am becoming more and more certain that God will send me on the missionary journey, and on the other hand, I am studying theology full time. The two do not negate each other, but complement each other. Since then, the "missionary path" and the "theological path" have been intertwined with my "way of life." Although I am getting older and the beginning may be difficult, when I step onto this path, I find that it is a journey of grace and no regrets. ...

The Divine Mandate of Spiritual Parents: Paul as Our Role Model

Liang Junhao, Associate Professor of New Testament Church Family The early church believers regarded each other as family members and called each other brothers and sisters. This family image implies another layer of relationship, which is the special relationship between parents and children. This set of special relationships is used between a few church founders with special status and the church members they lead to believe in the Lord and pastor. This relationship is very important, and its kindness is like the grace of life and upbringing given to children by physical parents; parents are the "benefactors" of their children, and children must obey their father's authority and instructions, and respect their parents. ...

The Magnitude of Salvation Revealed in Psalm 65

Assistant Professor of New Testament Zhang Kaixian God’s salvation not only refers to the “forgiveness of sins”, but also includes the change of life status, the shaping of a group, and the realization of the kingdom of God. Just as Paul also discussed salvation in this way, he wrote in Romans 5:1, "Since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." Through this sentence, Paul started from the previous chapter. The concept of "justification by faith" in several chapters advances to the description of the life state of "union with God" in chapters 6 to 8; after that, he further discusses the relationship between different ethnic groups in Christ from the perspective of group formation. how the kingdom of God is revealed in history and in the present day (Romans 9-15). ...
