We must all as believers realize that China is our enemy. They are Godless as a nation and want to make the world Godless. Let’s not get complacent about that.
Mike, the Chinese govt. is godless, they are our enemy. As a nation, there are so many Christians who are persecuted by this govt., yet they pray for America. I remember to pray for them as well, including their godless leaders. They have no power apart from what is allowed by God and we know their end should they continue to reject Him.
Tik Tok is digital spying, so let’s kick them out of our country and those who helped fund them!
