Underground church needs Bibles
While the Chinese government does supply a limited number of Bibles through “government
authorized” churches, there may be between 30 to 50 million people still
waiting for their own copy of God’s Word. These are Christians in underground
house church networks—churches not registered with the Communist-controlled
government. Despite the arrests of key ministry contacts inside China, Bible
League International continues to respond to the need with Bibles provided by our partners.
“Let the Word of Christ dwell in you”
In addition to providing Scriptures, Bible League International trains people to study the
Bible and share it with others. With this aim, Bible League International trains Christians
around the world to lead Bible studies, thereby helping people understand
God’s Word. As group members complete the Bible study course, they “earn” their
own Bible—a precious treasure, since Bibles are so scarce. Many people
who complete the Bible studies accept Jesus. Then they often become leaders
themselves—igniting a chain reaction of bringing people to Christ through
sharing His Word.
Your prayers can change a nation
Please pray that the pastors and church members trained by Bible League International will
bring many people to Jesus and share His Word with many others. Pray that
all Chinese believers will have their own copy of the Scriptures to keep
them strong. Pray that the house church networks in China will no longer
need to operate underground, and will be free from government censorship. |
