中國福音會同工曼德傳道指中國企業長期瀰漫「利益至上」、不擇手段的「你死我活」的狼文化,而基督徒商人應推動以基督信仰為本,講求全然奉獻「我死你活」的「羊文化」。

由台灣中國福音會主辦的「如何踏上中國宣教之路?」研討會於11月19日在中華福音神學院教室舉行。上午由曾在中國城市有成功拓植教會經驗的Thomas牧師,以及在中國成功開創醫療宣教模式的Joseph醫師分享。下午由中國福音會、基督教與中國研究中心曼德傳道主講,他挑戰在大陸經商者摒棄狼文化,而從基督信仰為本的羊文化。

--廣告--曼德會上強調,台灣赴中國大陸長期居留者約150多萬人,其中約半數台商、台幹經營勞動密集產業,大城小鎮都有數以億計的年輕的打工仔打工妹進入工廠,他們對信仰特別渴慕。台商自身的信仰需求和千萬員工的心靈需求,為企業宣教鋪墊了基礎,加上政府對企業家和台商的尊重,企業內的信仰關懷應該成為熱潮。自開放以來,高學歷台灣人來中國後在企業中擔任高級管理人員,對城市教會的宣教具有了舉足輕重的影響力,如北京、上海、廣州等城市教會的復興與他們有密切關係。

台商本可以更新企業文化,但卻成為中國企業「狼文化」的主要參與者,其中也不乏基督徒台商。曼德傳道說,中國的企業長期瀰漫「利益至上」,不擇手段「你死我活」的狼文化,而我們要推動的,是以基督信仰為本,講求全然奉獻「我死你活」的「羊文化」。他挑戰台商,希望台商能在推動基督文化之羊文化上有份。

曼德說,企業宣教有二重意義,對於非信徒而言,是讓福音遍傳的大使命,而對於信徒來說,則是「信仰徹底化」的文化使命,他引用《新教倫理與資本主義精神》的內容,鼓勵中國大陸的企業經營者及基層勞工,在職場努力活出屬神的樣式,是上帝要人在現世所處地位完成賦予他的義務和責任。

除參與中國福音會主辦的「如何踏上中國宣教之路?」研討會外,曼德傳道近日還到台北靈糧堂神學院和台北改革宗神學院分享了「中國城市家庭教會復興之概況」、「改革宗神學對當下中國的神學、社會意義」等信息。

Saving Pastor Gong

Please Help Saving jailed Pastor Gong of Huanan Chruch

~~~

Since Dec 2, 2012, my father Pastor Shengliang Gong had High Blood Pressure and Cerebral Infraction, but he never got the proper medical checkup and adequate treatments. Consequently, my father’s illness got worse and worse. More than once my father almost fell to the ground during last November.

Finally when he got the checkup on November 26th 2013, the doctor said my father’s illness was not very optimistic. He was having Cerebral Infraction, Encephalatrophy, Brain Lesions and Leukoaraiosis, etc. The doctor said that my father needs to have checkup every three months. So we repeatedly requested the prison officials to perform checkup accordingly, once every three months. The prison said that they had one done on April 17th, but refused to release the hospital’s medical treatments records and conclusions to neither my father nor the family members. They would not make any specific statements about my father’s illness. Now, my father and our family have no ideas about the level of his illness.

       Since my father illness, previously we could buy some appropriate medicines for him according to his known conditions pieced together from oral communications of diagnosis, after consulting with doctors. Though this won’t amount to totally healing, it was the only way our family could do for him under the circumstances. But now, as the prison withholding medical records from us, we are unable to know his condition and thus cannot providing suitable medicines for him-the very minimum request was denied of us.

       The inadequate medical treatments within the prison cannot give my father prompt and sufficient treatments. Yet the prison won’t send him to hospitals outside for necessary treatments and regular checkups, causing further serious damages to his health. The prison won’t allow him the fundamental human rights; they also deprive his right to know about his illness condition. The prison as law enforcement agency behaves illegally. Effectively, they are directly pushing my gravely ill father to dead end street of death.

       I appeal to the international communities concerning my father’s health and human rights conditions. Please join us to rally for my father and our family’s rights to medical records and the right to know the situation of my father’s sickness; also his right to have regular medical treatments, thereby saving his life and protect his fundamental rights!!

三化異象
中國福音化
  五十年來,中國大陸的信徒從不到100萬(1949)遽增到八千萬(2000),這是中國五千年來難得的宣教黃金時期;在中國教會裡,也普遍呈現「羊在找牧人」的現象,上帝為中國敞開了大門!現在就是「中國福音化」的關鍵時刻!
教會國度化
  教會是基督榮耀的身體,是一切事工的根柢。今日世界各地的基督教宗派都去中國宣教,如何促使海外教會超越宗派主義,中國教會突破山頭主義,共同營造具有「國度觀」的宣教事工,將是中國教會拓展生根的關鍵時刻!
文化基督化
  1989年「六四」之後,大批的中國知識分子信主,他們承認了理性的局限性,也不再提「反宗教、反帝國主義」,轉而思考基督教對中國現代化有何貢獻?如今正是因勢利導,以基督思想來影響中國文化,以聖經真理來更新中國文化的關鍵時刻!
