Randy Alcorn: Do Christians in China Still Suffer Persecution?
While China is putting on its best face to the world for the Olympics, let’s remember that it is still illegal to teach children under eighteen how many Chinese girl gymnasts are over eighteen? about God and Jesus. It is still illegal for three or more believers to gather for religious purposes without government approval. Eighty percent of Chinese Christians are part of unregistered illegal churches. Why do they refuse to ask to be registered? Because, they respond, Jesus Christ is Lord, and they cannot allow an atheistic government to control their churches.
Some western Christian leaders have naively criticized unregistered churches, without understanding that they cannot in good conscience bow their knees to a government whose hands have long been stained by the blood of Christians.
