\n<\/strong>I am grateful for those who, coming from Ukraine and Russia and other countries of war, have decided not to be enemies but to live as brothers. May your example spark resolutions for peace in everyone, including those who have political responsibility.<\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>The credibility gained through scientific dialogue gave him the authority to propose the truth of Christian faith and morals, which he discusses in depth in his major Chinese works.<\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>This is for all of us Christians who are evangelizers: I can say the creed by heart, I can say all the things we believe. But if your life is not consistent with this (action), it is of no use. <\/em><\/p>\n
