North China Theological Seminary (simplified Chinese: 华北神学院; traditional Chinese: 華北神學院; pinyin: Huáběi Shénxuéyuàn; abbreviated as NCTS) was one of the largest and well-known fundamentalist Protestant seminaries in mainland China in the first half of the twentieth century.
[2] Chinese Christians played an important role in founding and leading the seminary, as well as providing for its financial needs.
[2] Some of its most notable faculty include well-known Chinese Christians such as Ding Limei and Jia Yuming.
[3][4] Presbyterian missionaries associated with the seminary also took interest in the rise of independent Chinese evangelists such as John Sung, Watchman Nee, and Wang Ming-Dao, seeing their preaching as representing the "pure gospel" which called for repentance from one's sins.
In 1952, NCTS was eventually merged into Nanjing Union Theological Seminary, which continues to exist today.
