在今年臺灣大選前後,在中共宗教統戰直接幹預下,臺灣基督教會界的某些教牧人員著手在2013年舉辦「兩岸基督教論壇」,目前他們正在進行緊鑼密鼓的籌備工作。眾所周知,這是中共分化瓦解臺灣基督教界、拉攏收買親共動搖分子、打擊孤立堅持原則的教會的最狠毒的一招。此一褻瀆神的公義的所謂論壇如果開成,必將釘在臺灣歷史的恥辱柱上。

 

姑且不論“論壇”的政治本質,單單從其代表性上就可看出該論壇的虛假。「兩岸基督教論壇」,顧名思義,應該是兩岸—臺灣和中國最有代表性的教會和信徒參與的大會,只有兩岸有代表性的教會、信徒等參與的論壇,才配稱為兩岸論壇。但該論壇有這種代表性嗎?

 

臺灣方面,配合統戰、運作該論壇的,主要是由蒲公英希望基金會組織的一些教牧人員,雖然他們也是臺灣教界成員,但只能說是教界的一小部分,無廣泛代表性。眾所周知,基督教長老教會是堅持不與中共三自會來往的臺灣教會,但是,長老教會居然被該論壇排斥在外,而那些長期堅持不與中共三自會來往的臺灣其他傳統教會,也被排斥。這個將大多數臺灣信徒、教會排斥在外的所謂“兩岸論壇”,到底有無代表性,不是一目了然嗎?

 

中國方面,估計到時參加“論壇”的也只是些宗教官員、三自會教牧和信徒而已,而真正能代表中國基督教會,在人數、影響諸方面遠遠超過三自會的中國家庭教會代表,是不會出現在該“論壇”上的。因為不能讓家庭教會“合法化”“公開化”是中共的既定政策。而實際上,家庭教會僅就人數而言,至少是三自會人數的二三倍。2010年8月,中國官方發布《宗教藍皮書》指出,中國現有基督徒總體估計為2305萬人,但這個數字被認為僅僅是三自會成員。前《時代》周刊駐北京記者部主任戴維•艾克曼早在2003年就聲稱在中國,基督徒與天主教徒合計有8千萬之多。而美國《今日基督教》的估計更是高達1.3億。另據家庭教會研究的學者於建嶸在2008年指出“三自教會人數在1800萬至3000萬之間,家庭教會人數在4500萬至6000萬之間”。可見,無家庭教會代表的所謂“兩岸論壇”是毫無代表性的。

 

總之,這個無法代表臺灣和中國基督教界的所謂“兩岸基督教論壇”,應該趁早關閉、提前解散為好。

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!
