Going forward
User:Jose77 although the original AFD happened hastily, I have to say it was brought on by your creation of a non WP:RS sourced article. The TJC is obviously a very major church and requires a good article. Maybe even we can get it to WP:DYK or WP:GA status eventually, but to do so will require strict use of independent sources: I propose that refs use the format of the first ref, with actual citation of relevant line: J. Gordon Melton (2005). Encyclopedia of Protestantism. p. 536. ISBN 0816069832. Page 536 "The True Jesus Church is a Sabbatarian Pentecostal church founded in CHINA early in the 20th century. SABBATARIANISM had been introduced into China in 1847 by missionaries of the Seventh-day Baptists Church .." ... linking to Google Books is not enough in my view, not easy to ascertain which sentence in the page supports the claim in the article, and link rot and Great Firewall issues don't help all readers either. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:59, 5 June 2014 (UTC) This is probably where the "we" and "us" material is going to resurface, since Melton and others don't spend much time on specific beliefs. It will then be appropriate to source from specific TJC church statement of faith/practice type documents. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:59, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Unreferenced claims
An anonymous user added the following claims

"The church teaches that she is the ONLY true church and only believers who subscribe to church beliefs will be saved . Believers liken the church to be the ark of the final days, and only its members will be saved ."

This statement has not been verified and has been removed from the article for now until the appropriate citations are provided by the user. --Philip J (talk) 20:07, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
