align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Hong Kong society has frequently been described as torn apart and unstable over the last year. <em><strong>There has been a seemingly constant confrontation between the \u201cblue ribbons\u201d and the \u201cyellow ribbons.\u201d But how should Baptists respond to this situation? <\/strong><\/em> Should we take sides?<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Ng<\/th><td><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Which side should we take? I\u2019d say that Baptists are neither \u201cblue ribbons\u201d nor \u201cyellow ribbons.\u201d Must we label ourselves with the term \u201cribbon,\u201d we could only dub ourselves as \u201cJesus ribbons,\u201d meaning \u201cfans of Jesus Christ\u201d as He is the only one we follow. I have made the table below for ease of reference.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">There are several aspects listed in the table. With respect to <em><strong>the sovereignty to whom allegiance is owed<\/strong><\/em>, it is only natural for pro-establishment supporters to serve the regime as their \u201cLord,\u201d being loyal servants to the government. But sometimes, the supporters themselves may become their own \u201cLord,\u201d taking their career prospects and future as their primary considerations. Anti-establishmentarians stress the rule of the people. However, plenty of politicians in the West seek the support of the people, merely because they need their votes to keep their jobs. Baptists assert that \u201cChrist is Lord,\u201d and we ourselves are not the objects of loyalty. We obey God and follow His Word, even if it means acting against our own preferences.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">As for <em><strong>the authority of the government<\/strong><\/em>, pro-establishment supporters believe that the government itself is the sole legitimate source of authority, and therefore must be respected. Anti-establishmentarians, on the other hand, believe that the power of the government is delegated by the people who are the most important, and hence the government cannot take the people\u2019s respect for granted. But Baptists affirm that all authorities are delegated by God and, in other words, a king or government rules with delegated powers from God, and hence should be respected. We respect the ruling regime while acknowledging the priority of our respect for God\u2019s sovereignty.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Regarding <em><strong>the guiding principles for action<\/strong><\/em>, pro-establishment supporters consider the intentions of the regime and submit to its decisions. Anti-establishmentarians regard public opinion as being the most important, and it should be the basis for every decision. Baptists stress the will of God, and the truth leads our way. What decides what is right from wrong should not be based on the opinion of the majority; rather we should act according to the truth and teachings of the Bible.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Regarding <em><strong>the response to the government orders<\/strong><\/em>, pro-establishment supporters are usually submissive and obedient, and will comply with them as much as possible. Anti-establishmentarians are often critical, and will support the orders only if they serve the people\u2019s interests. Baptists should also make discernment, but they will support what the government does only if it is in accordance with God\u2019s will.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">In terms of <em><strong>social relations<\/strong><\/em>, pro-establishment supporters tend to merge themselves into the establishment and are actively involved in activities within the establishment to ensure the regime is pleased. Anti-establishmentarians tend to go into the crowds, seeking to please them and to gain their support. Baptists emphasize the priority of our faith, and refuse to join any unjust activities, and seek to be \u201csalt and light.\u201d We try to influence others with the truth, and speak up like prophets for our faith.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">In terms of <em><strong>objective<\/strong><\/em>, the pro-establishment camp seeks the stability of the regime, which also serves the interests of the entrenched leadership. Anti-establishmentarians tend to promote democracy and are more concerned with benefitting people generally. Baptists stress the importance of eternal rewards and seek to glorify God.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\"><em><strong>Social justice<\/strong><\/em>, as pro-establishment supporters would see it, is defined and should also be promoted by the regime. It is to be realized in the present time. The anti-establishment camp, despite also believing that justice is to be realized here and now, apparently has a different interpretation of \u201cjustice\u201d which they think should be defined by the people and hence derived from democracy. Baptists, however, believe that true justice will only be realized ultimately in the end time by God\u2019s sovereign judgement. But this does not mean that we should neglect social justice in the present world. We also must fight for it, but we can rest assured that God will have the final say in the Final Judgement even if we cannot see justice in the present.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">When faced with <em><strong>government orders which go against public opinion<\/strong><\/em>, pro-establishment supporters are generally committed to support them even if they themselves disagree with them, while anti-establishmentarians often object to them vigorously and fearlessly condemn them. Baptists, however, tend to respond in a gentle manner and express our opinions respectfully, for the good of the regime, society and the people. We hope to bring them to truth and goodness. We do not want to oppose just for the sake of opposition.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\"><em><strong>In the face of an unjust regime<\/strong><\/em>, pro-establishment supporters tend to accept the situation, and may attempt to push for internal reforms. Anti-establishmentarians usually rise up and resist. They may even resort to insurgence or attempts to overthrow the government. Baptists stress the importance of perseverance in following God\u2019s will, and putting our future in His hands, even if that means sacrifice, imprisonment or suffering.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Pro-establishment supporters may not support <em><strong>the fight for democracy<\/strong><\/em> as democracy may threaten their entrenched interests. Their stance also depends on the attitude of the regime. The anti-establishment camp often fully supports the fight for democracy which they see as a must and therefore strive hard for it. We are relatively supportive for the fight for democracy since democracy is found to be a comparatively fair system by different sociologists and historians. But we perceive the means more important than the end. Also, we should be aware that there are limitations in democracy itself. For example, the restraints of democracy in the West nowadays may include manipulation by the media, the necessity of the people to make correct judgements, and the availability of true facts. In fact, democracy, which we support in a relative sense, is not what we are ultimately pursuing; what we are emphasizing is the lordship of God. Typical examples for illustration can be found in the Bible. For example, how seemingly democratic Aaron was when deciding to make the golden calf, but it was actually a sin. So, democracy is not always right. As a matter of fact, some scholars in the West discuss the \u201ctyranny of the majority\u201d where the minority is oppressed in democracy. Surely we do not support such idea. So, <em><strong>what we truly stress is the truth and that God is our Lord<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><table><thead><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"col\">\u00a0<\/th><th scope=\"col\">Pro-establishment Supporters<\/th><th scope=\"col\">Baptists<\/th><th scope=\"col\">Anti-establishmentarians<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Sovereignty to Whom Allegiance Is Owed<\/th><td><strong> Loyalty to the Regime <\/strong><br \/>Sometimes loyal to myself<\/td><td><strong> Christ is Lord <\/strong><br \/>I am not the object of loyalty<\/td><td><strong> Rule of the People <\/strong><br \/>Sometimes loyal to myself<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Authority of Government<\/th><td><strong> Derives from the Establishment <\/strong><br \/>It must be respected<\/td><td><strong> Delegated by God <\/strong><br \/>It should be respected.<\/td><td><strong> Delegated by the People.<\/strong><br \/>It needs not be respected<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Guiding Principles for Action<\/th><td><strong> Government\u2019s Intentions <\/strong><br \/>Follow government\u2019s policies<\/td><td><strong> God\u2019s Will <\/strong><br \/>The truth determines our action<\/td><td><strong> People\u2019s Will <\/strong><br \/>Everything is based upon public opinion<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Response to Government Orders<\/th><td><strong> Submission and Obedience <\/strong><br \/>Comply with them as much as possible<\/td><td><strong> Discernment Is Required <\/strong><br \/>Are they in accordance with God\u2019s will?<\/td><td><strong> Discernment Is Required <\/strong><br \/>Do they serve people\u2019s interests?<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Social Relations<\/th><td><strong> Closely Related with the Establishment <\/strong><br \/>Seek to please the regime and engage in the activities of the establishment<\/td><td><strong> Faith as Top Priority <\/strong><br \/>Refuse to join any unjust activities, and seek to be \u201csalt and light\u201d<\/td><td><strong> Closely Related with People <\/strong><br \/>Seek people\u2019s support and to please them<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Objective<\/th><td><strong> Regime Stability <\/strong><br \/>It also serves the interests of the entrenched leadership<\/td><td><strong> Eternal Rewards <\/strong><br \/>Seek to glorify God<\/td><td><strong> Promoting Democracy <\/strong><br \/>It serves the interests of the general people<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Social Justice<\/th><td><strong> To Be Realized in the Present Time <\/strong><br \/>It is to be promoted by government<\/td><td><strong> To Be Realized in the End Time <\/strong><br \/>It will be ultimately achieved by God\u2019s sovereign<br \/>judgement<\/td><td><strong> To Be Realized in the Present Time <\/strong><br \/>It is to be derived from democracy<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Response to Government\u2019s Unpopular Orders<\/th><td><strong> Committed to Support <\/strong><br \/>They are espoused even though one disagrees with them<\/td><td><strong> Response with Gentleness <\/strong><br \/>Express opinions and respectfully disagree<\/td><td><strong> Object Vigorously <\/strong><br \/>Fearlessly condemn them<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">In the Face of an Unjust Regime<\/th><td><strong> Accept the Situation <\/strong><br \/>May push for internal reform<\/td><td><strong> Persevere in Following God\u2019s Will <\/strong><br \/>Put one\u2019s future in God\u2019s hands<\/td><td><strong> Confrontation <\/strong><br \/>Resist or even seek to overthrow it<\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Fight for Democracy<\/th><td><strong> Not Necessarily Support <\/strong><br \/>It depends on the stance of the regime.

In fact, how should the Baptist Church deal with this? Should I support one side? Wu: Which side should we stand on? I would say: Baptists are neither &quot;blue&quot; nor &quot;yellow&quot;; if we must use the label &quot;blue&quot;, we can only say that we are &quot;Yes&quot;, that is, &quot;fans of Jesus Christ&quot;, because we only follow Him. I have compiled a table below for you to see. This table is divided into several different categories. In terms of loyalty to sovereignty, those who are in power naturally focus on the regime and are loyal to it. But sometimes, the self is also the master. Because many people in power sometimes also consider their own careers and future. Those who oppose the government emphasize that the people are the masters. However, when many Western politicians seek the support of the people, they are actually only considering whether they can be elected. Baptists emphasize that &quot;Christ is Lord&quot; and they themselves are not the Lord. We obey God, and even if we like something, if God tells us to do something else, we must follow. In terms of government authority, pro-government figures emphasize that authority comes from the establishment, so the government must be respected. Anti-government activists believe that the government is authorized by the people and that the people are in the lead, so there is no need to respect the government. But we emphasize that the kingship is granted by God, which means that God allows a certain king\/royal power to rule, so it must be respected. On the premise of respecting God&#039;s sovereignty, we respect the existing political power. In terms of their actions, those in power emphasize the regime&#039;s intentions and obey the regime&#039;s decisions. Those who oppose the government believe that the will of the people is the most important and they should rely on public opinion. Baptists emphasize that the will of God determines our actions. Whether a matter is right or wrong does not depend on the judgment of the majority. We act according to the Bible and our understanding of the truth. In terms of the execution of government orders, those in power emphasize obedience and acceptance, and strive to cooperate in their execution. Those who oppose the government believe that it is necessary to judge whether it is in the interests of the people; they will only support it if it is in the interests of the people, otherwise they will oppose it. We also emphasize the need for discernment; however, the standard for discernment is whether it is in line with God\u2019s will. If it is in line with God&#039;s will, we support it. In terms of community relations, pro-government figures emphasize integration with the establishment, the need to please the regime, and involvement in establishment activities. Those who oppose the government tend to join the crowd, win the support of the people, and cater to their wishes. We emphasize faith first, abandon all unrighteousness, and strive to be salt and light; that is, to influence others with the truth and speak out as a prophet for our faith. In terms of pursuing goals, those who are in power emphasize the stability of the regime, and the leaders naturally benefit from it. Those who are against the government tend to promote democracy, from which the people can benefit. We emphasize the eternal reward and expect the Lord to be glorified. In terms of social justice, those who favor politics believe that justice is achieved in this world, but it is driven by the political power.
