For from the rising of the sun to its setting my name will be great among the nations, and in every place incense will be offered to my name, and a pure offering. For my name will be great among the nations, says the LORD of hosts.
(Malachi 1:11)
200 Years of Missions in China
September 5th was the 200th anniversary of Protestant Christian Missions in China. It took almost 7 years for the first convert to be baptized, and the first missionaries could never have dreamed that today the tally of converts would number into the millions. Praise God for how marvelously he has worked to call out a people for His name from among the Chinese!
I encourage you to read this brief article by my pastor John Piper regarding the Chinese church and this wonderful anniversary. He also points out some free video files you can download which will encourage you about how God is moving in the Chinese church today.
