Tsae A-Ko

Tsae A-Ko

Tsae A-Ko was the first known Chinese Protestant Christian [Horne (1904), chapter 5] . He was baptized by Robert Morrison (the first Protestant missionary to China) at Macau about 1814. Morrison acknowledged the imperfection of this man's knowledge, but he relied on the words, " If thou believest with all thy heart ! " and then he administered the rite. From Morrison's diary the following was noted: " At a spring of water, issuing from the foot of a lofty hill, by the sea-side, away from human observation, I baptised him in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. . . May he be the first fruits of a great harvest." Amid such affecting circumstances the native Chinese Church began.
