There had been two stages of development of Protestant dissenting traditions in China. They both were found to be related closely with the indigenous Christian movements in China. This paper is an attempt to study both the dissenting traditions and the indigenous Christian movements in China. Three important theological forces were found actively behind these movements. They were namely: the Pentecostalism, Evangelicalism, and Holistic Movements, which helped to account for the close relationships between dissenting traditions and the indigenous Christian movements in twentieth-century China. The latter comprised those which attempted to move beyond the Western mainline/denominational understanding of Christianity, hence developing an independent Chinese Christianity.] |
