The suppression of religious freedoms is part of an official campaign to “Sinicize†religion by demanding loyalty to the atheist Communist party. (AP Photo/Andy Wong) The Chinese government is destroying crosses, burning bibles, closing churches and forcing Christian believers to sign papers

“The international community should be alarmed and outraged for this blatant violation of freedom of religion and belief,†Bob Fu of China Aid, said.

Who are Catholic Church Crimes?
What is Church Father?
The Church Fathers, Early Church Fathers, Christian Fathers, or Fathers of the Church are ancient and influential Christian theologians and writers. There is no definitive list. The era of these scholars who set the theological and scholarly foundations of Christianity largely ended by AD 700. In

the past, the Church Fathers were regarded as authoritative, and more restrictive definitions were used which sought to limit the list to authors treated as such.
What is Church Council?
A Council, Church Council or Synod is a council of a church, usually convened to decide an issue of doctrine, administration or application. The word synod means "assembly" or "meeting", and it is synonymous with the Latin word concilium meaning "council". Originally, synods were meetings of

bishops, and the word is still used in that sense in Catholicism, Oriental Orthodoxy and Eastern Orthodoxy. In modern usage, the word often refers to the governing body of a particular church, whether its members are meeting or not.
Who are the Church England?
The Church of England (C of E) is the established church of England. The Archbishop of Canterbury is the most senior cleric, although the monarch is the supreme governor. The Church of England is also the mother church of the international Anglican Communion. It traces its history to the Christian

church recorded as existing in the Roman province of 3rd century Britain. The governing structure of the church is based on dioceses, each presided over by a bishop. Within each diocese are local parishes. The General Synod of the Church of England is the legislative body for the church and comprises bishops, other clergy and laity. Its measures must be approved by both Houses of Parliament.
What is China?
China, officially the People's Republic of China (PRC) is a country in East Asia. It is the world's most populous country, with a population of around 1.4 billion in 2019. Covering approximately 9.6 million square kilometres, it is the world's third or fourth-largest country by area. Governed solely

by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the state exercises jurisdiction over 22 provinces, five autonomous regions, four direct-controlled municipalities (Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Chongqing), and the special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macau. China is a unitary one-party socialist republic, and is one of the few existing nominally socialist states. Political dissidents and human rights groups have denounced and criticized the Chinese government for human rights abuses, including suppression of religious and ethnic minorities, censorship, mass surveillance, and their response to protests, notably in 1989.
Who are Northlake Church?
Northlake strives to be a Community of Believers Committed to Growing in Christ and Caring for Others. The mission of Northlake Baptist Church is to exalt the Savior, evangelize the sinner, equip the saints, and encourage the soul.
What is the Church?
A church is a building used for Christian worship services and Christian activities. The earliest identified Christian church is a house church founded between 233 AD and 256 AD. The word church also describes a body or assembly of Christian believers, while "the Church" refers to the worldwide

Christian religious community.
