Wilson Tsang (M.Div.) Wilson Tsang, Vice Dean (Research) Wong Fook-kwong and student Ye Tang-kin have received a lot of grace from the full-time theological studies in the past two years. I would like to share some of my insights here. Grace: Knowing God and Salvation History How can I experience God if I don’t know Him? How can I speak of a God I have not experienced? If I do not know God, how can I live out my life in Christ, even though I belong to Christ and even become a preacher? Therefore, during this period of study, every time I understood the mystery of the Triune God more deeply and comprehensively, the joy and satisfaction I gained could not be expressed in words; it was a feeling that went deep into my heart and was manifested in my life. ...

Samuel Yip (M.Div.) The missionary journey The year I entered the seminary, I was moved and began to have a burden for missionary work. After receiving confirmation, I raised my hand in tears to respond to the call at the missionary meeting; the tears were not from sadness, but because I saw the urgent needs in the missionary field. On the one hand, I am becoming more and more certain that God wants to send me on a missionary journey, and on the other hand, I am studying theology full-time; the two are not one at the expense of the other, but rather complement each other. From then on, the "missionary path" and the "theological path" were intertwined in my "path of life". Although I am old and the beginning may be difficult, when I embarked on this path, I found that it was a journey of grace and no regrets. ...

However, like the history of the church as a faith community, despite all the hardships, it has witnessed God’s grace everywhere. ...

Bernard Leung Associate Professor of New Testament The 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, that is, the special relationship between parents and children, which is also the special relationship between a small number of church founders with special status and the church members whom they lead to believe in the Lord and pastor. This relationship is very important. The grace it brings is like the grace that physical parents give to their children of life and nurturing. Parents are the "beneficiaries" of their children. Children should obey their father's authority and instructions and respect their parents. ...

Dr. Chang Kai-hsuan Assistant Professor of New Testament God’s salvation does not only refer to the “forgiveness of sins”, but also includes the change of life status, the shaping of groups, and the realization of the kingdom of God. Just as Paul discussed salvation in the same way, he wrote in Romans 5:1, "Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ"; through this sentence, Paul progressed from the concept of "justification by faith" in the previous chapters to the description of the life state of "harmony with God" in chapters 6 to 8; after this, he went further and discussed the coexistence of different ethnic groups in Christ from the perspective of group formation, and how the kingdom of God is manifested in history and in the present (Romans 9-15). ...
