王明道與中國教會 Wang Ming-Dao and The Chinese Church

王明道先生的生平和言論，膾炙人口，對於一般華人基督徒的信仰與生活，產生了極大的影響。本書嘗試從歷史的角度去研究這位屬靈領袖在過往數十年來與中國教會的關係。

作者在第一部份敘述王氏生平的主要事蹟，其中包括他的家庭背景、學校教育、重生經過、蒙召獻生、教會事奉、抗日時的見證、大陸變色的前後、被囚與釋放等。在他多元性的事工上，對華人教會貢獻最大的，大概是靈食季刊的創辦、基督徒會堂的建立，和走遍華南華北的講壇事奉三方面。
王氏的神學思想代表華人教會保守派的主流。本書第二部把王氏神學的內容綜合分析，以重生之道為骨幹，闡述他對福音的本質、耶穌基督的人格和工作、聖經的權威、屬靈的追求、教會的使命等教義的觀點。王氏多年來一直呼籲信徒堅守聖經的真道，力抗新神學派的衝擊，為中國本色神學建立了一個護教的傳統，對日後華人教會的發展，留下深遠的影響。
本書可供今日華人信徒在信仰上一個反省檢討的機會。

Mr. Wang Ming Dao's work and preaching has had great influence on the faith and life of Chinese Christians. This book studies the relationship between this spiritual leader and Chinese churches, from a historical angle.

The first part of the book describes the major events of Mr. Wang Ming Dao's life, including his family background, education, rebirth, being called to the ministry, his church ministry, his testimonies during Sino-Japanese war and his imprisonment and release after 1949. Among his multi-level ministries, his greatest contributions are probably the publication of "Spiritual Food Quarterly" and the establishment of the Christian church and the pulpit ministry among thousands of churches in Northern and Southern China.

His theological thoughts represent the main stream of the conservative Chinese churches.

The second part of the book analyzes Wang's theology and illustrates his viewpoints on: rebirth, the nature of the Gospel, the personality and work of Jesus Christ, the authority of the Bible, spiritual pursuit, and the mission of the church. Wang had always advocated that believers be firm on Biblical truth and resist the impact of the New School of Theology. He established an apologetics tradition in Chinese Church history. This tradition has had great influence among the contemporary Chinese churches.
