Synopsis

This new edition of A Biblical Approach to Chinese Traditions and Beliefs revisits the age-old dilemma many Chinese Christians face. Daniel Tong examines various cultural practices and beliefs, and provides guidelines so that Christians will be able to live their faith to the fullest while maintaining their heritage. Viable Christian alternatives to practices during major Chinese festivals, weddings, funerals and ancestral worship are offered, and sections on traditional Chinese medical treatments have been updated and expanded. Illustrations and a glossary with Mandarin terms are now included to aid the reader’s comprehension. The author’s sound biblical and pastoral wisdom, combined with a rigorous understanding of Chinese traditions and beliefs, makes this book an important guide for all Chinese Christians.

This book is written for Christians seeking to live out their faith more fully. In no way does it advocate intolerance; neither is it offensive to those who belong to other faiths. This is particularly important at a time when a high premium is placed on religious harmony and tolerance
