I've already mentioned on this thread the benefit of a name on the outside of the building: you'll at least have some clue as to the theology taught within.
Do you think the Baptists or Lutherans would evangelize China by proclaiming that the age of the word was over & it's now the age of the spirit? Or, it's now the age of small potatoes? The no-name church became a cover for an ignorant and superstitious oriental satrapy. The DYL and TC variants show the same despotic ethos. The children further prove the parent, of what sort it is.
Again, oriental superstition isn't inferior to western, but let's not pretend it's divine. Tens of thousands of us were fooled into thinking that WL, DYL, TC brought them God, free from fallen human culture. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Don't criticise the Big Boss; in China you can lose your job 40 years after Mao's death merely if you criticise him. Ring any bells, here?
