Moderators John317 Posted May 7, 2010 Moderators Share Posted May 7, 2010 Jinan police allow Adventists to worship indoors Seventh Day Adventists in Jinan forced to worship outdoors after being evicted from their premises.Was it the intense media spotlight? Or did someone just have a change of heart? Whatever the case, the prayers of the Seventh Day Adventists in Jinan that we told you about earlier have paid off because on May 1st the local congregation held its first indoor meeting since they were forcibly evicted from their premises on 27th February. The Huaiyin District Office for Ethnic and Religious Affairs had allegedly exerted pressure repeatedly on Zhangzhuang Brigade to demand that the landlord terminate the rental agreement on the church's venue. For over two months now, the Seventh Day Adventists, determined not to be victims of discrimination, have practised their religious worship in make shift venues, and even outdoors. But, by prayer or by politics, the Adventists appear to have induced a dramatic u-turn in police policy. http://shanghaiist.com/2010/05/06/jinan_adventists_allowed_to_worship.php Picture shows SDAs worshipping outside. Quote John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Members phkrause Posted May 8, 2010 Members Share Posted May 8, 2010 Praise the Lord. pk Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators John317 Posted May 29, 2010 Author Moderators Share Posted May 29, 2010 Thanks so much, pindoc. I'm glad you posted it on FB. We need to pray for our fellow Christian and Advenist believers in China, who know what it is to suffer and worship under the heel of an atheistic system.
