Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI), chairman of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, made the comments during an interfaith roundtable discussion on the suppression of religion in China. In attendance at the discussion was a Chinese pastor who fled the communist country after facing persecution from the government.

“Xi Jinping has no problem with the first commandment, just so long as he and the CCP are playing the role of God,” Gallagher said during the roundtable discussion. …

Gallagher also said in the Henan Province, in Eastern China, the Communist Party has started to replace the Ten Commandments with quotes from Xi. An example, according to Gallagher, is changing “Thou shalt have no other gods before me” to “Resolutely guard against the infiltration of Western ideology.” …

One pastor at the event at the Capitol knew first-hand how the Communist Party in China persecutes Christians. Pastor Pan Yongguang of the Mayflower Church fled China in 2019 after threats and interrogations from the government, according to The Christian Post. During a press briefing before the roundtable, he urged the United States to put “pressure” on China to stop the persecution.

The persecution of Christians in China has been a major problem for years. Open Doors, a Christian organization committed to serving persecuted Christians, releases a “World Watch List” annually, outlining the top 50 countries where the persecution of Christians is highest.

According to the 2023 World Watch List, China ranks 16 for Christian persecution. …

While we all know that the real satan is not the red creature with horns, I found this picture of Chi interesting… the flag behind him makes it look like he has horns.
We must be in prayer for his Salvation.
Father, grant him repentance, bring him to his knees and help him discover Your Truth. In Yeshua’s Holy name. Yes and Amen.
🙏🙏🙏

I am remembering Nebuchadnezzar who said, “Is this not Babylon the Great, which I myself have built by the might of my power as a royal residence and for the glory of my majesty?” At that moment, the sentence against him was executed.

I am remembering Belshazzar, who held a feast for a thousand of his nobles. They were drinking from the silver and gold goblets Nebuchadnezzar had taken from the Temple in Jerusalem. They drank and praised their gods until they saw the fingers of a human hand writing: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, PARSIN…He was killed that very night.

I am remembering Saul, who was ravaging the church, then on the road to Damascus…“Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? Who are you, Lord? I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. But rise and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.”

I am remembering the 50 countries where Christians face the most extreme persecution… which is linked in this report: https://www.opendoors.org/en-US/persecution/countries/

N Korea, Somalia, Yemen, Eritrea, Libya, Nigeria, Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Sudan, INDIA, Syria, SAUDIA ARABIA, Myanmar, Maldives, CHINA, Mali, Iraq, Algeria, Mauritania, Uzbekistan, COLOMBIA, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Viet Nam, Turkmenistan, CUBA, Niger, Morocco, BANGLADESH, Laos, Mozambique, Indonesia, Qatar, Egypt, Indonesia, Congo, MEXICO, Ethiopia, Bhutan, TURKEY, Comoros, Malaysia, Tajikistan, Cameroon, Brunei, Oman, Kazakhstan, JORDAN, NICARAGUA.

Dear Heavenly Father, You know Xi Jinping and all others leaders/nations and individuals who target, torment, and murder Your people. I pray You will execute justice. I pray they all will see the writing on the wall. But I pray You will show them the mercy they are denying Christians and in turn, they WILL follow YOU. Father, I am asking You to call them into account. I am asking that Your Plan to defend and save be as it is in Heaven and do so in the Name Above ALL Names, 耶稣, ישוע, 예수, y shayu s nyya, عیسی, Jesús, Îsa, يسوع….Jesus Christ! Amen
