The Life of Reverend Wong Fook-ping (Huang Fuping 黃福平，1892-1966): A Testimony of Faith in God and Love for Country

Abstract

This paper traces the life of a Chinese Anglican priest, Wong Fook-ping (Huang Fuping 黃福平, 1892–1966), and considers how the Christian gospel was promulgated in the era of Republican China from the perspective of a Chinese Christian. This paper focuses on events relating to the experience in the Anglican churches in the Kong Yuet Diocese (Gang-Yue jiaoqu) under the organization of the Chung Hua Sheng Kung Hui (Zhonghua shenggong hui) and considers Rev. Wong’s thoughts and belief through his writings in the context of the events during the era of Republican China and the early years of the People’s Republic of China up to the cultural revolution.
