Premier Radio asks Release about new reports that Chinese officials are forcing Christians to remove crosses and pictures of Jesus from their homes.

Press reports say Chinese officials have been forcing poor Christians to remove crosses and pictures of Jesus in their homes – or face losing their welfare benefits.

According to the Christian Post, Christian villagers in Shanxi have been made to replace religious pictures and symbols with images of Chairman Mao and the Chinese President Xi Jinping.

It’s claimed Christians who refuse are denied state benefits.

Cara Bentley from Premier Christian Radio asked Release’s Andrew Boyd about the reports, which have yet to be verified…

The report appeared in the US-based Christian Post. You can read it here:
