Finally, I am able to find out the answer to the questions that has confused me for a while. God always arrange the time and resources to add my intelligence because God opens doors for people to get the answer if we are willing to seek. For many months, there has been a question in my mind that if we as a believer should base our faith in a church which is in control of a political authority. I encountered this questions and controversy with some common believers and some pastors. However, their attitudes and cares disappointed me, and at least i did not get the same or similar thoughts as mine. Therefore, sometimes, i even began to doubt if my perspective is right or wrong. Today, i think i found out the answer from the video that i watched on Youtube. The video is very famous and named as Jesus in China. This series was created by Yuan Zhiming and focused on the history of christian faith over the last century. The christian faith was damaged seriously after the communist party took control of Chinese mainland in 1949. They killed a great number of Christians and burned bibles. They also took a humiliating approach to control Christian faith by building a church for them. Instead of freeing the believers, the communist party acted as the head of the 3 Self church. Many evanglists at that time was invited to join in this church and they refused the invitation. Their statement for refusal is that the head of the church should be and only be Jesus. Otherwise, the church is not a church anymore.
That is great, i find out the answer. Thanks to God's spirit, i was reminded by God that something must be wrong if they join that kind of church. But i was not able to locate a evidence and convincing statement to support my perspective. Actually, this statement is not complicated and could be easy to find if you have intention to find with conscience and God's spirit. Unfortunately, some people ignore it either with purpose or innocently.
Thanks God.
