# Evangelical Christian Church of Dubai

The Evangelical Christian Church of Dubai (ECCD) is an evangelical church located in the United Arab Emirates. It was established in 1972 by expatriates in the oil and gas industry. Later, the church changed its name to the International Christian Church of Dubai (ICCD, 1983) and later to the United Christian Church of Dubai (UCCD, 1992) before reverting back to its original name, the Evangelical Christian Church of Dubai, in 2022.

## History
### 1970-1990

In 1972, many expatriate Christians were arriving in Dubai. A small fellowship of Christians constituted itself as a church. A pastor was called, and a statement of doctrine was adopted. In the following year, the first constitution was accepted. At that time, the church met on Sundays in the Jumeirah American School (now the American School of Dubai), and Sunday School were held there in the afternoons.
Due to international tensions in the 1980s, the church was asked to leave the Jumeirah American School for security reasons. For a while, the church met in hired hotel rooms and later in an English School and The Cambridge High School, by arrangement with the school's owner, Mrs Varkey.

### 1990-2000

The church leased a villa in Jumeirah (the “Jumeirah Villa”), from 1990 to September 2003. The building continued to be used for Sunday evening services and other churches’ meetings until the Dubai Municipality ordered the villa's closure in June 2006.
With the Villa as a permanent place of worship, the church grew significantly. In 1990, a Friday morning service was started by 4 families. This grew to become the main gathering of the church. The Villa was also used by other Christian groups, including the Arabic Evangelical Church of Dubai (AECD). In 1994, an informal group composed of ECCD (then UCCD), AECD, and others applied for a grant of land from the Ruler of Dubai on which to construct a church building. In 1998, the Ruler of Dubai granted a piece of land to these churches, and fundraising commenced for a building.

### 2000-present

In September 2003, Friday services commenced at the new Dubai Evangelical Church Centre (“DECC”) in Maranatha Hall at the Churches Complex in Jebel Ali Village. It is located within the complex alongside church buildings of other denominations. By 2009 the total cost of construction had been covered (primarily by members of UCCD) and all loans repaid.
In 2010, ECCD (then UCCD) sent out a number of members and staff to establish a sister church, Redeemer Church of Dubai, on the opposite side of Dubai. The church continued to support RCD financially until 2012, by which time it had grown into a self-supporting church.
Although licences to hold Christian worship or build churches in Dubai are restricted, ECCD's pastor joined other Christian leaders in 2011 to express their gratitude to the Government for their freedom to meet.

# Spiritual warfare in China

Spiritual warfare in China is a concept in several cultural groups of China of using various methods and devices believed to ward off supernatural evil or interfering forces.
One author writes of how the wood of the peach tree has been a key device in fighting evil spirits in China:
   The Chinese also considered peach wood (t'ao-fu) protective against evil spirits, who held the peach in awe. In ancient China, peach-wood bows were used to shoot arrows in every direction in an effort to dispel evil. Peach-wood slips or carved pits served as amulets to protect a person's life, safety, and health.
Peach-wood seals or figurines guarded gates and doors, and, as one Han account recites, "the buildings in the capital are made tranquil and pure; everywhere a good state of affairs prevails." Writes the author, further:
   Another aid in fighting evil spirits were peach-wood wands. The Li-chi (Han period) reported that the emperor went to the funeral of a minister escorted by a sorcerer carrying a peach-wood wand to keep bad influences away. Since that time, peach-wood wands have remained an important means of exorcism in China.
Elsewhere in China it is written that "In fighting evil spirits, an anji can invoke his personal sonma, for example, by offering a chicken. If the anji does not worship his sonma in a fitting manner, he may become sick, or the sonma may leave the anji altogether, causing him to lose his power."
In parts of China bordering and sharing the culture of Nepal, the practice of Shamanism can be found. It is reported that various kinds of shamans are engaged by evil spirits "in either a physical battle or a battle of wits." Shamans are often called upon to fight evil spirits, in many traditions. One story tells of a shaman who, unable to locate a demon who was causing illness to a victim, brought a story-singer, who sang a story of the defeat of a powerful demon so convincingly that the infesting demon came out to aid the demon in the song, and so was able to be defeated.
The Hmong people, found throughout Southeast Asia including in China have an ancient belief in evil spirits and have a well established set of rituals and traditions for encountering demons. Comparable efforts to fight evil spirits occur in Christianity.
