"Underground Church" Pastor arrested, imprisoned then escapes China - Bob Fu's Story

***Update (Dec. 10, 2020): In response to death threats as Fu delivered an address in Washington DC on persecution in China, the FBI placed Bob Fu and his family members in protective custody.
Bob Fu, who lives in Texas, , is a former Tiananmen Square protester who now runs ChinaAid, a non-profit supporting persecuted Christians in China. Patrick Payton, Mayor of Midland, where Fu lives, told reporters that some people "want Bob Fu eliminated" and "would like to see his life ended".
The threats caused the family to be evacuated from the home and taken into protective custody for several weeks. They have now returned to the family home but remain under police protection.
"I have no doubt this is directly from Beijing," said Fu.
"The goal is clear. It's to silence my voice for freedom in China and to destroy the ministry of ChinaAid. We see how the Lord has used this to wake up many in the free world. We see this as a blessing in disguise."
"This is not going to scare us. Freedom has a price, and this is the price we are proud to pay for our faith and for freedom."
-------
By day, Bob Fu was a teacher in a communist school; by night, he was a preacher in an underground house church network. Bob recounts his conversion to Christianity, his arrest and imprisonment for starting an illegal house church, his harrowing escape, and his subsequent rise to prominence in the United States as an advocate for his oppressed brethren.

We need as followers of Christ to stop living as if the world evolves around you. Jesus paid the price with His suffering and death not for you to then live as if He only exists at certain times and places. We don’t like it when He intrudes in our personal space because we think we’re the most important thing in this universe. Then Jesus was and probably will never be your King and Lord when He returns.

We are now approaching famines and food shortages because of our global economy. People need to get back to basics producing food for themselves and families. Start making and producing food in your homes again. I was born in 1951 and my family didn’t need to go shopping daily but produced and made everything. Bread, butter vegetables and clothes were produced in our homes . We always had enough and some to share with our neighbors. . Nothing went to waste but recycling was important. Hens ,pigs cattle and sowing crops. We were able to store up food for the rainy day.We made our own jam sauces, chutneys, pickles.

[@EuphoriaPiana]

Those of us who are believers ALREADY know this fact, including American ones like myself; we don't need trolls like you prowling around the comments section incessantly REMINDING us about this day and night. You haters sound like a bunch of broken records and damaged CDs, repeating yourselves all the time, and I KNOW that you are NOT looking out for our best interests. I have heard my late pastor -- as well as other preachers and members of The Body -- mention this here and there in multiple sermons over the years that I have been listening to for almost 20 years now; so I am FULLY aware of The Squeeze or The Test that will come down on The Bride members all over the world. But this phenomenon won't just only be confined in/to several dozen countries and nations throughout the world in the meantime PRIOR to The Rapture, the Catching Away (which takes place BEFORE Tribulation hits this place down here, for the record), and for a myriad of reasons that have to excluded for the sake of brevity.
