: Click “About ChristiansInChina.com” to see who are running this website.

Your comment reflects a common mindset among people outside of China, that if a website does not write about Christians being prosecuted in China, it is probably run by the government to white-wash the real situation.

But we have personally visited many state-run churches and met many Chinese Christians. They are not prosecuted. We think it is possibly true that the 20 to 50 million members of China’s official churches can practice their religion freely.

Naturally, your next questions will be: Will the Chinese government’s control on the church extend beyond the political and organizational realm? Will they try to intervene the church’s theology? Does that mean the Christian belief might be compromised as a result?

We do not know. From what we have seen, the state-run churches are foremost gospel churches. Even if they do call on its members to love their country, it seems secondary.

The question of Christians prosecution rests almost entirely among the vast numbers of underground church members, estimated at 70 to 120 million in total. On top of these vast numbers, these churches are loosely structured and exist in China’s remote countryside. The difficulty of studying their conditions faces enormous challenges.

ANSWER: We currently do not know anyone or any organization to help you. But we will keep this in mind in our future investigations. We are posting your question here and hope others who can help will get in touch.

We wish to add a BBS to this website so that this can be an information exchange platform. This is why we are trying our best to keep our website available in China so people here can visit this site also.
