Chinese

Everybody needs to hear the gospel. But not everybody needs to hear the gospel articulated in chinese. Only the chinese need that.

Don't look at some aspect of truth or perspevtive or method or articulating the gospel as more important than the gospel itself. That's like thinking you need to lear chinese, then teach chinese to everybody else in order to speak to them. Speak the language you know - the one you were born with, and speak with those who share that native tongue. If it is in your capacity as a human to learn a language or two more so that on the occasion when you might meet a hispanic or an icelandic person and would be able to communicate with them, wonderful. But know that no one has learned all the world's languages in his lifetime. It is best to start with your own nation, your own heritage and tribe and tongue - your very brothers and sisters, and to start by knowing the language of the self...your own inner dialogues.
