There is the article.
I personally think it's very disrepectful. If you're visiting a country, follow their rules. Don't spread your crap any further.

Right. Regardless of their agenda, it is still against their rules. Who is going to pay for their jail sentence if they get in trouble? Us, the taxpayers.

If China forbids it, China should have the right to take legal action should said missionaries do what they are expected to do. Do I believe the myopic view of Communist China towards religion is right? No, but it is simply how it is, either go regardless of the danger, or do not go.

Jesus suggested that we are to stick to the government. yet while the government breaks the regulations of God, we could desire to nonetheless be devoted to God exceptionally. after all, Jesus replaced into finished for treason. What i think of is quite impolite is that the chinese language government won't enable faith of their usa. What i think of is impolite is that the chinese language set up a "fake" church that has centers while distant places dignitaries arrive, yet that's empty in any different case. by using the way, the be conscious "spite" isn't precise. The be conscious "love" is, for the missionaries are purely attempting to unfold the gospel and placed across others to salvation.

not rules, LAWS. It's a communist country, which means their atheist. It's like going into church and telling them God is a invisible man in the sky. Also China jails the most journalists in the world, don't **** with them. I mean it, they rolled tanks on college students who protested against them.

A man got to visit Planet Heaven.
He saw a lot of chinese children up there.
He did not see very many chinese mothers and fathers.

Have you ever read what the Chinese do to their citizens that are Christians? They put them in reeducation camps and torture them until they recant their faith. We go over there to encourage them not to give up their faith in the midst of trial. You live in a country where you can speak out against your government. They will be killed for doing it there. Remember Tienanmen Square

I agree with you completely.
Hopefully they will be arrested and subjected to chinese laws without aid from the u.s. government because let's face it.... they're breaking the laws over there and thinking they're just going to come back here & get a warm welcome for being so brave and breaking their laws to preach. What lesson would they learn if the justice system there was allowed to penalize them? Oooh that would be brilliant!!!

You might compare "women's rights" or the "black's right to vote and be free" in America.
People have the "right" to be free and that includes worship who and what they want and we have the right to be willing to try to give them that right.
"As for me and my house we will serve the Lord".
