Excerpt: 'Today many Chinese house leaders are following in the footsteps of earlier pioneers by preparing to preach the gospel from village to village, all the way to Jerusalem. More than a thousand evangelists have already gone out, with many more to follow—as many as 100,000 workers, or more.
Many Chinese Christians believe that the church's Great Commission will not be fulfilled until the gospel has completed its global circuit from East to West and returned to the place where it began. Then, they say, it will be time for Jesus to come again. According to the famous house church leader Brother Yun, “the destiny of the house churches of China is to pull down the world's last remaining spiritual strongholds—the house of Buddha, the house of Mohammed, and the house of Hinduism—and to proclaim the glorious gospel to all nations before the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ!”'
