David Paton: Christian Mission Encounters Communism in China
CHAPTER NINE DAVID PATON: CHRISTIAN MISSION ENCOUNTERS COMMUNISM IN CHINA While serving as a visiting fellow of Cambridge University, England in the fall of 2005, I was asked to lead a discussion group with Master of Philosophy students on Christianity in China for the Divinity Faculty. Amongst the reading references, I found David Paton’s book, Christian Mission and the Judgment of God.1 David Paton had been a CMS mis- sionary in China for 10 years and was expelled from China in 1951. So he had experienced the end of the missionary era in China in the early 1950s. The book was first published in 1953 and was reprinted by Wm B. Eerdmans Co. in October 1996 (after Paton’s death in 1992), with the addition of an introduction by Rev. Bob Whyte and a foreword by Bishop K.H. Ting. They both endorsed Paton’s view from the experiences of Chinese Churches in the past forty years. Bob Whyte reported that many of Paton’s reflections remained of immedi- ate relevance today and the issues he had perceived as important in 1953 were still central to any reflections on the future of Christianity in China. Bishop Ting also confirmed that this book was a book of pro- phetic vision and Paton was a gift from God to the worldwide church. Dr. Gerald H. Anderson, the Emeritus Director of Overseas Ministries Study Center at New Haven (USA) added a remark on the cover- page, saying: “To have this classic available again is timely—even bet- ter with the new foreword by Bishop K.H. -

By John H. Tietjen. Minneapolis: Fortress Press, 1990. There is an advantage often in reviewing a book after it has received other reviews. There is also a bit of guilt involved in procrastinating so long. In the present case I am glad, because the reviews I have read of Dr. John Tietjen's Memoirs have not been kind or fair to him nor empathetic to his struggles and situation; and, with the exception of a review by Leigh Jordahl, they have shown little understanding of what was happening before, during, and after his tumultuous administration as president of Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. With this review I wish to give John Tietjen and his many colleagues, friends, and followers a fairer hearing and a fairer commentary on his memoirs. I am well qualified to do this because I was his colleague and next-door neighbor while he led the seminary and because I know the background and all the principals, all the issues and events of those turbulent years (1969-1974) which changed more than most realize-ar might care to admit-the LCMS and the lives of Tietjen and all of us involved. -

John Warwick Montgomery, “Beyond the “Plastic Text”: the Plot Thickens”
Beyond the “Plastic Text”: the Plot Thickens John Warwick Montgomery Abstract: A new approach to textual criticism is being advocated by a New Testament professor at the Concordia Seminary, St Louis, one of the two theological centers for the training of pastors in the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod (LCMS). It is the conviction of the present essayist that this approach amounts to the destruction of the denomination’s commitment to scriptural inerrancy; returns biblical scholarship to the subjectivism of the higher criticism; and, if pursued, could cause that conservative church body to face again the theological difficulties that came close to destroying the LCMS in the Seminex controversy of the 1970’s. Readers may well recall my critique of Jeffrey Kloha’s “plastic text” essay.1 I have learned (unofficially) that church authorities have met with Dr. Kloha, that he admitted to no doctrinal problems, that the authorities agreed, but that a revised version of his essay was to be prepared. Almost a year has passed, but that revised version—if in fact prepared—does not seem to have been made available to the general or to the scholarly public. The seriousness of the issues involved for the historic doctrine of the inerrancy of the Holy Scriptures therefore requires additional, though brief, examination of Dr. Kloha’s biblical orientation. This will focus on his contribution to the Festschrift for his mentor, Professor J. Keith Elliott,2 with additional comments on Kloha’s “plastic text” essay and a reaction to his paper entitled “The Authority of the Scriptures,” delivered at the 2010 Concordia Seminary St. -
David Paton --- Christian Missiomissionn Encounters Communism in China"
THE HENRY MARTYN LECTURES 2007 "David Paton --- Christian MissioMissionn Encounters Communism in China" by Prof. Peter Tze Ming Ng LECTURE 2: Tuesday 6th February 2007 INTRODUCTION In this second lecture, I shall focus on my reflections of the work of David Paton, Christian Mission and the Judgment of God (London: SCM Press, First edition in 1953). When I came to Cambridge as a visiting fellow in the fall of 2005, I was asked to lead a discussion group at this Divinity Faculty. I was glad to know that amongst the reading list, Paton's book was on the required list for all M.Phil. students of World Christianity. The book was reprinted by Wm B. Eerdmans Publishing Co. in October 1996, with an introduction by Rev. Bob Whyte and a foreword by Bishop K.H. Ting. They both have endorsed Paton's view from the experiences of Chinese Churches in the past forty years. Bob Whyte said that many of Paton's reflections remained of immediate relevance today and the issues he perceived as important in 1953 were still central to the future Christianity in China. Bishop Ting also affirmed that his book was a book of prophetic vision and Paton was a gift of God to the worldwide church. Dr. Gerald H. Anderson, the director of Overseas Ministries Study Centre at New Haven (USA) further remarked, saying: "To have this classic available again is timely- even better with the new foreword by Bishop K.H. Ting. [1] So Paton's work was still worth re-visiting, and I decided to read it again for this lecture.
