From history.

The attitude of fundies that don't involve in the local politics, and the attitude of Liberal Christians that see involvement in politic as essential part of faith.

清中葉以後,基督教再次入華,此時仍舊並存著保守與自由兩派的力量,代表著兩種不同的宣教策略與政教態度(註3)。 至少在義和團事件以前,以戴德生(James Hudson Taylor)為主的保守派一直居於優勢;而李提摩太(Richard Timothy)與林樂知(Young John Allen)等的自由派則侷限於上層社會的文化圈。一般來說,保守派深受敬虔主義的影響,他們致力於靈魂的救贖與教會的建立,對於中國的文化、社會與政局則幾乎完全採取一種超然與隔離的姿態。固然,原因之一是自己為外國人。
但是同為外國人的自由派分子,卻熱衷於中國的文明與社會建設 ,甚至不遺餘力地鼓吹中國的政治改革(註4)。事實上,那些深受敬虔主義影響的傳教士,即使在自己的祖國,對於社會與政治也大都採取一種超然與隔離的姿態。這明顯是一種政教分離的立場,但我們要問的是,政教分離主義是一種怎樣的政治神學呢?何以會在對華宣教事業上竟與帝國主義政治結合?這樣的神學 矛盾是如何演變而出、又該如何自圓其說呢?另一方面,利瑪竇、李提摩太以及林樂知等的宣教策略,又蘊涵著怎樣的政治理念 呢?除了靈魂的救贖之外,基督教還應當關心及參與現世的文化、社會與政治嗎?到底「上帝國」(Kingdom of God)有沒有現世的領域?精神之劍該如何與世俗之劍互動?無疑地,這些課題一直挑戰著在華的傳教士,事實上,也挑戰著民九至民十七期間的中國護教者。若是要妥善的回答這些問題,我們不得不探索一下西方某些重要的政治神學。
