Before 2000, these two Chinese Christian texts were accepted as authentic and dated to the 7th century ; they are nowadays considered doubtful. Based on a synchronic study of all the seven Chinese Christian texts today accessible and an attempt to characterize their theological sensitivities, this work provides new internal elements in favor of their authenticity. It also calls into question the widely accepted presupposition of the historical continuity of a single Christian community at the origin of all texts, and ends up proposing a new name for the corpus. The study is based on a critical edition and an annotated working translation of the seven Chinese Christian texts dated between 635 and 1006.
