The Holy Spirit and the Chinese Church: Interview with Dennis Balcombe
We need more missionaries like me to come to China or other Asian cities where there are predominantly Chinese people, learn the language, do evangelism and church planting.
In China, missionaries can easily start smaller house churches without much problem, and as they grow large to divide into smaller groups.
Now there is great vision to reach the approximately 80 million people in the various national ethnic groups (non-Han people). Most have not been reached. This takes funds and personnel. Both Chinese believers and overseas missionaries can do this work.
PR: What can believers in other parts of the world do to help?
Dennis Balcombe: First, give money to financially support ministries who are actually working in China. There are many projects people can support. One of the main ones is to purchase Bibles. We have a vision to delivers another 5 million Bibles to China’s Christians to be used for evangelism during the next 9-10 years.
Secondly, bring teams to deliver Bibles to China, and do personal evangelism in China (such as passing out tracts and witnessing).
We need anointed pastors and teachers to come to teach Christians. Those with prophetic gifts are especially in great demand, for many are released into their ministries through the prophetic ministry in which Gifts of the Holy Spirit often are imparted to the recipients.
