The Charismatic Movement in Taiwan from 1945 to 1995
This book presents a comprehensive account of the historical development of the Charismatic Movement in Taiwan, placing it within the context of Taiwan’s religious and political history. Judith C. P. Lin unearths invaluable sources of the Japan Apostolic Mission, the Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship International Formosa Chapter, and Jean Stone Willans’ short stay in Taiwan in 1968. Lin describes and analyzes how the efforts of 1970s charismatic missionaries in Taiwan—including Pearl Young, Nicholas Krushnisky, Donald Dale, Allen J. Swanson, and Ross Paterson—shaped the theological convictions of later Taiwanese charismatic leaders. She also explores significant developments in the Taiwanese Church which contributed to the gradual and widespread recognition of the Charismatic Movement in Taiwan from 1980 to 1995. Lin offers a thorough treatment of history, reconfigures historiography from a Taiwanese perspective, and challenges the academic circle to take seriously the “Taiwanese consciousness” when engaging Taiwan’s history.
Christianity and the Chinese in Indonesia
Filling a scholarly gap on the study of Christianity among the Chinese in Indonesia, this book addresses issues of state-religion relations and state policy on religion; contested religious space; elite Chinese philanthropy; evangelism and multiculturalism; citizenship education; and Christian faith aspirations.
Ethnic Chinese in Contemporary Indonesia
The Chinese in Indonesia have played an important role in Indonesian society before and after the fall of Soeharto. This book provides comprehensive and up-to-date information by examining them in detail during that era with special reference to the post-Soeharto period. The contributors to this volume consist of both older- and younger-generation scholars writing on Indonesian Chinese. They offer new information and fresh perspectives on the issues of government policies, legal position, ethnic politics, race relations, religion, education and prospects of the Chinese Indonesians.
THE MEANING OF SON OF GOD (IIUM PRESS)
The Meaning of Son of God provides a Biblical interpretation of the term son of God. The term interpreted in a different way by the Christians and the Christian’s explanation on this term responded by Muslim through Islamic view, which considered as a mistake in term of faith. As a result, there is a misunderstanding between Christian and Muslims concerning the term son of God.
Modern Chinese Theologies
The majority of Christians in China over the course of the last century have worshipped not in missionary-founded churches or in congregations affiliated with the contemporary Three-Self Patriotic Movement or Chinese Catholic Patriotic Association, but in independent and unregistered churches, often labeled "house churches." From the Pentecostal and Charismatic movements within the mission-church landscape of the early twentieth century, to the Calvinist Reformed movement in the present-day Protestant church, the vibrant faith life and extraordinary church growth of this sector of Chinese Christianity offer a fascinating witness and lesson to the world church. Yet despite the size of their c...
Kitab Roma
Buku ini berbicara mengenai Kitab Roma dengan membawakannya kepada aplikasi kehidupan sehari-hari yang dapat dipraktekkan oleh pembaca. Banyak orang Kristen tidak membaca Alkitab secara teratur. Salah satu sebabnya karena mereka agak kesulitan menemukan cara untuk mengaplikasikannya ke dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Yohanes 10: 10 mengatakan: 10. Pencuri datang hanya untuk mencuri dan membunuh dan membinasakan; Aku datang, supaya mereka mempunyai hidup, dan mempunyainya dalam segala kelimpahan. Benarlah perkataan Firman Tuhan di atas bahwa tugas utama iblis dan roh jahat adalah untuk mencuri, mencuri apa? Firman Tuhan. Karena iblis dan roh jahat tahu apabila kita memiliki Firman Tuhan di dalam...
Ezra and Nehemiah
The books of Ezra and Nehemiah illustrate how leaders of God’s people confronted the challenges facing the Jews during the post-exilic period of Israel. Zerubbabel inspires the people of God to rebuild the temple; Ezra leads them in renewing their faith in God; and Nehemiah rebuilds the wall and, importantly, the people as well. The examples in these books, of leading through challenges and opposition by trusting the Lord and committing to prayer, testify to how God’s gracious hand guides and blesses his people at each step. The careful exposition of these two books provides a valuable model for us to balance prayer and action with contextual application, and how the full obedience of leaders can lead to communities being transformed. The Asia Bible Commentary series empowers Christian believers in Asia to read the Bible from within their respective contexts. Holistic in its approach to the text, each exposition of the biblical books combines exegesis and application. The ultimate goal is to strengthen the Body of Christ in Asia by providing pastoral and contextual exposition of every book of the Bible.
