Abstract
This paper explores the growing field of Sino-Christian theology (Hanyu Jidu shenxue 漢語基督神學) in mainland China since its origins in the late-1980s. Born in a context of social unrest, many of the earlier voices within Sino-Christian theology have been interested in questions around theological anthropology. However, these scholars have tended to rely upon Western or Latin Christian resources. This paper proposes that Eastern Orthodox theology and, particularly theosis (θέωσις) or deification, can have a significant role to play in the future of Sino-Christian theology.
