近年来,农村地区的一些村民在身患重病难以得到医疗救治的情况下,会尝试将信仰基督教作为一种替代治疗方案。豫东陈村教会农民因病信教现象表明,本土化的基督教为农民的疾病医治提供了一套“合理”的解释体系。通过“神医结合”的方式,有些农民疾病的痊愈得以可能,“疾病”和“苦难”被赋予新的意义,被构建为“神拣选之前的考验”,继而导向皈依基督教。农民最初的功利性信仰,会经由宗教仪式的出席和宗教实践的参与而逐渐形成对基督教的理解和体验。农民因病信教成为基督教民间信仰化和本土化实践的重要表现形式。

In rural China, some members who suffer from serious illness but can not obtain effecitve medical treatment, would try to use Christianity as an alternative treatment recently. Based on the case study of Chen Village in eastern Henan, the article argues that the localized Christianity provides a ＂reasonable＂ explanation system to farmers＇ disease treatment, that they can only get recovery through the way of ＂a combination of Christian faith and medical treatment＂. They gave a new meaning to ＂ disease＂ and ＂suffering＂ as a way of god＇ s selection, and eventually some of them will convert to Christi- anity. The combination of disease treatment and religious understanding, to a certain extent, reflects the variation of multi- level individual development needs, especially manifested by the transformation from body treatment to spiritual belief. It is one manifestation of Christianity and its localization that farmers believe in Christianity because of illness.
