Влади́мир Миха́йлович Фили́ппов: Education is a key component of soft power.

The Circumcision

Of the Mind of Jesus Christ:

Bloody Seal of thorns.

THE SMITHS

His Head is a Crown.

His Hair is Black as The Crow.

His Locks are twisted.

RICHARD JOEL WASSERSUG: The eunuchs of antiquity could pass through literal and social walls and live in the world of both commoner and king. Being neither fully male nor fully female, they could also emotionally function in both gender terrains. In the same way, angels could transgress the borders of Heaven and Earth. They, too, were liminal beings, neither deities nor mortals, but something in between. Like the eunuchs on Earth, they left no descendants, but were granted access to both the natural and supernatural worlds.

China insists on Chinese features for Christ.

I am alarmed that Pastor Wang Yi, leader of Chengdu’s Early Rain house church, was tried in secret and sentenced to nine years in prison on trumped-up charges. Beijing must release him and end its intensifying repression of Christians and members of all other religious groups.

房兴耀: Love for the homeland must be greater than the love for the Church and the law of the country is above canon law.

A regimented dose of Chinese Jesus is what the World needs, at this time.

KEVIN KELLY: By the year 2040 China will overtake the US as the world’s largest economy. It will have the largest educational system in the world, the most out-bound tourists, the most churches. It will very likely also become a cultural leader. According to David Aikman, author of Jesus in Beijing, we can expect 30% of the population of China to be Christian by 2040.

JOHN L ALLEN JUNIOR: There may be a need for a new round of liturgical catechesis and evangelization, both for those who come back and those who, at least temporarily, stay away.

The visit is a significant sign that #China is intent on pressing forward with ties with #Israel despite opposition from #Washington.https://t.co/uk0ZSgc99m

KEVIN KELLY: As one Chinese missionary said, “We have the view that Chinese missionaries will be part of the mainstream on the highway back to Jerusalem.”

My Joy is Your Joy.

I'm healed by Your Stars and Stripes.

My Grief is Your Grief.

PETER HECK: the world includes far more places than the West – which has been experiencing the death of Christianity for generations. Meanwhile Christianity is simply exploding in places like South America, Africa, and the world’s most populated country of China. In fact, the underground church movement being run in citizens’ homes against the wishes of the tyrannical communist regime, is growing so fast that in the next decade it may have more members than there are people in the United States.

JOHN ALLEN JUNIOR: Given the trust Cardinal Tagle enjoys from Pope Francis, it’s impossible not to suspect that he’ll have an important seat at the table when significant Vatican decisions vis-à-vis Beijing are made.
