I have personally spoken to the people who are doing God's work in China, Maylasia, and Indonesia. The Chinese Church has been going through a new wave of persecution since 2018, when the Chinese government officially made it illegal to gather at any church that is not controlled by the government (Three-Self Patriotic Church). Nevertheless, God is at work. In particular, God is using those who refuse to be controlled by fear, and continue to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ in spite of the danger. This is true not only of those in China, but also in Muslim countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia. The names of the people interviewed are kept confidential, but we must stand with them in prayer, and we must learn from them to stand for the Gospel, no matter what kind of opposition we have to face. |
