Vietnam Churches on Toes
Compass Direct News reports that church members are on their toes as police raids are on the rise. In Hanoi, four police officers and two government officials interrupted a Sunday worship service in Tran Phu Commune. One officer told the members that if he found them meeting next Sunday, “I will kill you like I’d kill a dog.” Yet, this is just one instance of Christian persecution that has taken place over the summer.
When asked what they think of the recent flare-up of attacks on Christians, Vietnamese leaders agreed that it must have been approved by the top levels of government because it is so widespread. They believe that though it is unwritten, it is a policy of the government to stop the expansion of Christianity.
