Obama condemned for indifference to China church persecution
As President Barack Obama prepares for his first visit to China, leaders of the unapproved churches there are condemning his administration for indifference to the increasing persecution they are facing.
The latest example of that persecution came Sunday as followers of an unapproved church in Beijing were again forced by the government to find a new place to worship.
Obama, who was to arrive in Shanghai later Sunday, will be closely watched during his visit for signs he will speak out on human rights, including religious freedom. Leaders of churches like Shouwang said if Obama doesn't speak up, the Chinese government will crack down even more....
Mr. Obama has shown no concern pertaining to religious persecution (of Christianity) in his own country; but then, I do believe he has neither interest nor affinity with American citizens or Christians.
President Obama did do something, Obama chides China on human rights, if I remember correctly the last President did nothing, and had eight years in doing just that!
Christians have to remember,
2 Timothy 3 12 And indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. John 15 19 "If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20 "Remember the word that I said to you, 'A slave is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they kept My word, they will keep yours also. Matthew 15 9 "Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations on account of My name.---NASB
