Global Christianity

After reading Phillip Jenkins' Next World of Christians, this book reminds me of an unforgettable passage of the movie 'Apollo XIII'. Politicians warned in advance that the previous tragedy would be a misery moment. Space program's mission control flight director Jean Kranz mistakenly heard the conversation and solved the problem. "Nevertheless, I believe that gentlemen, this is our best moment." This book shows that the obvious demise of the Western Church (the arrival of the era) is a reflection of secularism and postmodern opponents It is because it predicts destiny.

Today, Westerners who used to be global Christian base camps are gradually becoming (and rapidly) post Christians. In the coming era there are many important blessings and hope for progress, but in general the church which was once the center of the Western society is around (In the economy of God this is very for the Western church It might be a good thing). ) But the decline of Western Christianity does not mean the global decline of the gospel. Jesus builds his own church. Jesus never forgets to tell a lie. During the past 50 years, Christianity has developed vigorously in Africa, Latin America, Asia - in what many people call "Global South", this development creates amazing historical global development It was. These figures can be misleading as they can only report self-reported Christians, but even if significant inflation is granted, the general trend is amazing.

Free Christianity was always an ally of atheists in the war of creation and evolution. Evolutionism is an important ideological ground for atheism. Due to the explosive growth of Christians and conservative Christians worldwide, the birthrate is higher, and the success rate of the gospel is higher, the number and impact of liberal Christianity is expected to continue to decline. - The US federal government funds evolutionary false science and Greece's serious financial problems. Their useless teaching is that the United States can not continue to operate with a huge deficit without a result. There is no doubt that the funds for fake science of evolution will be reduced, this is already happening.

This course takes Christianity as a prism and uses this prism to examine the origin and development of world religion. Since the creation of the ancient Mediterranean world of the first century, Christianity has tried to acquire a global position. Based on the decision of Paul's evangelization, Christianity has been trying to build a network of believers in the world for a long time. And now it accounts for about 20% of the world population. This course will focus on the Christian tradition, the Catholic Church and the Pentagon as an example of deliberate and successful globalization, studying the globalization of Christianity from the twentieth century to the 21st century. We ask if modern values, pluralism and relativism are beneficial to people of religion and religion. What is the prospect of a purely humanitarian approach to a common problem in the globalized world where religion is no longer a powerful cultural force anymore?
