Bob Fu, founder and president of ChinaAid, encourages viewers to remember those who constitutionally have religious freedom, but in reality—do not. "Remember those in bonds as well as those in danger...," he states. "Pay for them."
Dr. Fu recounts Article 18 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which stipulates:
Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.
Dr. Fu stresses that the two following components of religious freedom:
1. freedom of religious belief;
2. manifestation of religion.
As freedom of religion encompasses the freedom for one to practice his/ her faith, one does not have to keep his/her religion (faith) to him/her self nor confined to a church building. With freedom of religion, one may freely express him/her self in private or in public; as an individual or in groups.
Although Article 36 of the Constitution of the PRC states: “Citizens of the People’s Republic of China enjoy freedom of religious belief,” the enactment of the National Security law in Hong Kong on July 1, 2020, reveals the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) opposite intent. With this new law stimulating hundreds of arbitrary arrests relating to abuses of human rights and religious freedom, questions arise:
What kind of country would arrest and imprison those speaking out for
human rights?
What kind of country would disrupt peaceful Christian gatherings?
What kind of country...?
As Dr. Fu reminds viewers of the kind of country China has become due to the CCP's war against religious freedom, the kind of country it currently seeks to turn Hong Kong into, his words resound his hope for manifestations of religious freedom. In China... in Hong Kong... from his heart, he encourages others to practice their faith—to "pray...."

Bob Fu, PhD, shares several stories of those who have experienced what one detained Christian described as “prison theology.” Bob Fu, PhD, reminds viewers to remember that we [Christians] have a God who is the same yesterday, today, tomorrow—forever. He also recounts that although God does not change, He changes hearts and lives of those who believe in Jesus Christ. In the house church, Dr. Fu notes, God changed Brother Chen Wensheng, once a Chinese “mafia” leader to become “a new creation in Christ, a follower of Jesus."
At the first of this year, Brother Chen resolved to spend New Year’s Day in sharing the gospel in the public square/in the marketplace. Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials, however, arrested and sentenced him to 10 days administrative detention for sharing the good news of Jesus Christ and urging fellow citizens to repent and accept Him as their Savior and Lord
In prison, a person will experience some tough times, perhaps even getting beat up by fellow prisoners. Brother Chen sees being in prison, however, to actually mean real freedom; that there he gets to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to those who were spiritually chained by sin. As the gospel of John 3:6 recounts, even before we know Jesus, He has already done his part. All we need is to have a beating heart and by faith accept what Jesus did on the cross….
Dr. Fu relates other examples of Christians standing strong in their faith and refusing to adopt the CCP’s dogma. Lessons Chinese Christians as well as the persecuted Church have learned may be good lessons for the church in the free world. Instead of complaining, being grumpy, or cursing, we would do better to just take every moment every day as a day of the Lord. We can not only sing the song, “This is the day that the lord has made, we shall rejoice and be glad in it” —wherever we are. That's the number one lesson of the lordship of Christ. The second one is the love of Christ you see from the smiling face of Brother Chan when he was dragged into the police station.
Even when officers interrogated him, Brother Chen still shared the gospel with his interrogators. He told them his testimony, how God had totally transformed him from a former mafia life to a guy full of sunshine and loving care for others. From the powerful penetrating power of the gospel of Jesus, with the spirit of forgiveness, God not only changes the lives of prisoners, but of prison guards as well as people who hear the gospel on the street from a freed prisoner.
