@SwannHnesce@AngAesthetics@SmokinApeology@MBurtwrites What’s with the Chinese church before 1949?
Actually I think the problem of WOO in the west it’s just because TEC occupied too many news pages which is just part of a little story of WOO across the world.
Also that is not the story of TEC in Taiwan, TEC is better PCT.
My experience today with answering the questions of 8, 9, and 10 year olds in school reminds me why it's vital for ministers to learn theology, philosophy and science. It took 20 years of rigorous study of these subjects to answer these in a way a child could understand.
