The regulations, which take effect May 1, prohibit foreigners from preaching, sharing their faith, or establishing religious organizations without official government approval, persecution.org reports.

That’s EXACTLY what our domestic communist party want for right here in the USA.

Good one! In China, it's about menu selection when you say you prefer things "dog style".

I wonder if China is still “giving” away unwanted girl babies through foreign adoptions?

Did they also get rid of the state-controlled Chinese Communist Catholic Church?

Godless Communism.

Our eternal enemy thanks to Harry S (for nothing) Truman!

This is barely a change in policy as they've been completely hostile to missionary work for years. I know of a number of missionaries there, and all have a "cover" such as being English teachers or corporate liaisons, etc.

It's a pain because they use retina scanners in their airports, so you can't just do a name change and get a new passport after you are caught and deported. I know a couple people who have tried.

Well that is a return to FORM— from the Boxer Rebellion days.
Time to review the “Sand Pebbles” movie with Steve McQueen.

“the China Light Mission” evacuation of Christian Missionaries.

You beat me to it. Destroy Religion, full families, and so forth. Every step they do paves the road to socialism and quickly to communism.

This is why the underground church is so large in China. I would also note that China is the country Francis gave veto power over who could serve as a Bishop there.

This will backfire because it will cause progressives to back tariffs and a trade war with China. The only thing progressives are opposed to more than the success of President Trump and patriotic Americans is evangelical Christianity spreading in the world.

We HAVE to reach as MANY as we can and as QUICKLY as we can πŸ›πŸ›πŸ›πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™βœοΈβœοΈβœοΈ

That Old Serpent 🐍 called the Devil and Satan KNOWS what happens if the Word of God takes root

The Word of God can bring down empires. That's why the GODLESS REPROBATE DEMOCRATS always FEAR the WORD OF THE LORD

God may not be a Republican
But Satan is certainly a Democrat




JESUS CHRIST IS LORD

JESUS CHRIST IS
THE SON OF GOD

JESUS CHRIST IS
THE ONLY MESSIAH

SHARE the GOSPEL WORLDWIDE 🌍🌎🌏

This works MUCH BETTER if LURKERS
COPY, TEXT/EMAIL these pictures and

As Nervous Tick says: Be Part
of the Billion-Soul Harvest!!


We will share until our Lord comes back for us! (Lord willing that we can sow The Seeds of His Word) πŸ˜‡βœοΈπŸ™πŸ›

Believe in the One Messiah of God...
