China Bans Missionary Activity as Pakistani Persecution of Christians Increases

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP ) is once more cracking down on Christianity in China, and the West’s majority continues to ignore the global problem of anti-Christian violence. Christians are also being persecuted in Pakistan.

Christians around the world are subject to constant and even regular harassment for their belief because they come from Syria, Nigeria, Congo, Burma, India, Sudan, Iran, Gaza, Nicaragua, Thailand, and Afghanistan. According to new information from an advocacy group, the institutions of Pakistan and China are intensifying their persecution of Christians. In fact, Socialism and Islam are the ideologies that are most concerned for the world’s most severe and perilous anti-Christian persecution.

The CCP’s new rules, which are purported to protect national security and “normal religious activities,” are based on a report from the International Christian Concern ( ICC ) from April 4 on the basis of which extremely watered-down religion that supports Communist policies operates. The most recent regulations, which take effect on May 1, basically ban preacher activity and prohibit foreigners from establishing any religious organizations without the government’s expressly required approval.

The CCP has long held a skeptical outlook on separate religious practice, contending that spiritual loyalty conflicts with the Communist Party’s ultimate desire for loyalty. Regardless of its religious roots, the government labels separate spiritual practice as cultish and islamist, and needs that all Christian practice is conducted within state-run churches.

The christian Three Self Church and the Taiwanese Catholic Patriotic Association are two well-known illustrations of these state-run organizations. Through music, speeches, and community occasions, they work to promote Constitution propaganda and the personality cult that surrounds state president Xi Jinping. Independent home churches that operate outside the state-sponsored program, such as those mentioned above, are frequently searched and their people are detained on suspicion of working against the interests of the state.

Last year, the CCP constantly boasted about its extremely severe persecution of Christians and other religious minorities, including Falun Gong, through the state propaganda outlet Global Times. Global Times boasted that” china’s public safety authorities intensified efforts to destroy worship companies in 2024,” as ICC noted. They have worked to stop cult-inspired businesses from growing and spreading, reducing possible threats to national political stability, and preserving cultural security.

Similar boasts were made by China’s public safety government. All of this advertising is intended to cover up the abuse, imprisonment, and even murder of spiritual Chinese citizens.

In addition, Human Rights Focus Pakistan&nbsp ( HRFP ) recently released a report on the “dramatic escalation” of persecution of religious minorities in the Muslim nation, with Christians in particular the focus. The ICC is attempting to use the data to spread awareness about the “horrifying increase in driven conversions, violence, sexual violence, and deaths targeting Catholics and other immigrants.” ICC stated:

Authorities ignore the screams of the stupid while blasphemy laws continue to be a tool in the hands of extremists as evidenced by ICC research that supports HRFP’s conclusions. At least 20 Christians are currently serving more than 134 times in Pakistani prison as of January 2025 on sacrilege costs. &nbsp,

Jeff King, president of the ICC, criticized Pakistan’s decades of harassment. This is a country where Christian girls are raped from their families, violently converted, and married to their abusers, where a false accusation of blasphemy is stoke a murder crowd, and where righteousness is a right reserved for the majority of Muslims. Pakistan has for too long hidden its systematic persecution in solitude and discrimination. King resolutely called on the earth to confront this issue and demand accountability for Islamabad’s blatant conduct. If only Western Christians had the same concern for persecuted Christians as they do for Hamas extremists in Gaza.
