| Before
the Communist Revolution, we practiced a number of religious
and philosophical beliefs. We have been taught ethical guides
to proper behavior for individuals and officials. We have
sought to promote our inner peace and seek harmony with
our surroundings. Some of our beliefs and rituals have come
from other lands such as India. Missionaries proclaiming
the Word of God and message of Jesus Christ have been active
in China since the early 17th century. In the past, some
governments discouraged religious practices and some churches
were closed. Times have changed and millions are now practicing
Christian faith in China. Our people are finding truth,
peace, hope and love in Jesus Christ. We have a glorious
future with God.
God sees us, and He knows our hearts. God keeps watch over
His people. The Word of God tells us that if we find wisdom,
we will have a bright future.
God
loves you and desires a personal relationship with you.
God desires that a newness of life for you.
Jesus
said,
God so loved the world that he gave his only son, that
whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal
life… I have come that they may have life, and that
they may have it more abundantly.
John 3:16, 10:10.
God
gave people freedom of choice but through the ages humanity
has proven it cannot connect with God. For this reason,
Jesus Christ demonstrated God's love for all of humanity
in his death on the cross. "For there is one God and
one mediator between God and men, Christ Jesus."
I
stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and
opens the door, I will come in an eat with him, and he with
Me. And, to all who receive Him have the right
to become children of God.
Revelation 3:20; John 1:12.
