Finding God in Ancient China: How the Ancient Chinese Worshiped the God of the Bible ReviewI live and work in China. I'm often approached under the assumption that so many Westerners believe in "the God" that I probably know something of the Christian religion. One of the things I've VERY often heard from mainland Chinese is that Chinese reject Christianity because "it's Western." One may argue the validity of the claims of Christianity, but there seems to be no defense of that Christianity somehow ORIGINATED in the West... unless you're talking "west of Beijing," which is NOT what the people speaking to me are meaning.
This book seems, at least to the very few who have been able to read it here, to make the deeply impacting point that perhaps that argument isn't quite so true as they've been told it is. It's an enjoyable read, in my opinion. I can say this for sure: compared to every other Chinese author I've ever read (except Jung Chung), the author did his homework. Chinese academics and society is overflowing with what those in the West call "plagiarism." This author has done his homework. Of course, people will agree or disagree with his conclusions as they will, but the quality of his work is good.Finding God in Ancient China: How the Ancient Chinese Worshiped the God of the Bible OverviewWhile many consider early Chinese history to be composed of myths, fables, and legends, in Finding God in Ancient China author and scholar Chan Kei Thong believes that the language, stories, and rituals actually occurred during this time period and honored a creator who has since been forgotten in modern Chinese culture. According to Thong, after the division of nations at the Tower of Babel one of the groups journeyed across the Asian continent and settled in what is today the region of China. It was this group of people who established the first Chinese culture known as the Long Shan. And from this culture the first ruling dynasty, the Xia Dynasty, would emerge. Thong claims that the writings, beliefs, actions, and language conventions that were employed by the Xia Dynasty all point to a belief in the one true God; the same God who confused the languages at Babel and is today the God of the Christian faith.'Finding God in Ancient China is a remarkable achievement, a profound examination of China's cultural origins and history as a reflection of a continuous Chinese cultural sense of a connection with the divine. This book is already having a profound impact in China in a Chinese version.Everyone interested in Christianity in China should read it.'
