黃呈聰被視為日治時期待機派知識分子，「中國」也被視為他的政治傾向。本文將1925年黃呈聰歸信中國真耶穌教會作為分界點，探討1925年前黃氏的著作、主張以及社會參與。黃呈聰在保甲制度、糖業、芭蕉買賣以及渡中旅券問題方面皆有著墨，著力推動中國白話文運動，也從世界的視野參酌臺灣文化的特殊性，提出臺灣與日本的文化應當採用「調和」而非「強制」同化的主張。而1925年後，黃氏改信中國真耶穌教會，並將這番改宗視為自己從事民族運動的一環，將民族主義內化於宗教信仰之中，不僅如此，這份信仰亦被黃氏視為拯救民族的救靈運動。本文試圖將黃呈聰1925年後的人生與前半段銜接起來，作整體性的探討。同時，也探討與黃呈聰生命歷程緊密結合的真耶穌教會於日治時期的發展過程。

This thesis aims to represent the attendance of social movement and religion practice from Huang Chien-Tsong’s（黃呈聰, 1886-1963）life after 1925 since we didn’t know much about it though some academic discussion had tried to figure out. Before 1925, Huang was a son of a land owner and a promising one who had good career and won the high scale of respectability, therefore, he attended many social movements and wrote many articles about changing Taiwanese conception about political and social problems during the period of Japanese Government occupation. However, after1925, he accepted the special religion, Chinese True Jesus Church（中國真耶穌教會）, he combined his political tendency, Chinese- inclination, with this religion and took the road to determine his conviction that believing Chinese True Jesus Church was also a way to carry on turning Taiwanese into a kind of soul-puring race. I want to discuss Huang’s published articles that he wrote no matter before or after 1925 to explore his understanding about Chinese and the particular parts of Taiwanese culture and life-style. And, it’s absolutely necessary to connect these with his personal life-practice in both social movements and religious belief when we probe into his life after focusing on his achievements and works.
