Шаблон:Short description The China Gospel Fellowship (Шаблон:Zh), also known as the Tanghe Fellowship (Шаблон:Lang), is one of the largest evangelical Christian religious movements in China,[1] and is a house church network formed in the province of Henan. Approximately 5 million members.[2]
History
The China Gospel Fellowship, or Tanghe Fellowship was founded in the 1980s.[3]
In 2002, Eastern Lightning, a Chinese Christian new religious movement, allegedly kidnapped 34 of the Fellowship's leading members and held them for two months.[4] In 2004, more than 100 leaders of the church were arrested as part of governmental raids against unregistered churches.[5] Sources consider it to be among one of the largest Protestant denominations in the world, and the third largest in China, behind the state-supported Three-Self Patriotic Movement and the Fangcheng Fellowship.
