China Conducts Mass Arrests Of Christians Right Before Christmas
Hundreds of Christians in China will likely spend Christmas in jail this year, according to a recent report. Starting on December 13, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) mobilized “more than a thousand police officers, SWAT units, anti-riot forces, and firefighters” in the Zhejiang Province’s Yayang Town in Wenzhou City, raiding churches and conducting mass arrests of Christians, ChinaAid reported.
“Belongings of relevant individuals were illegally confiscated, roads leading to the church were completely blocked by police, and Christians in Yayang Town were unable to enter the Yayang church. The operation lasted nearly five days, yet no public statement was issued by officials,” the outlet noted. “Within just the first two days, several hundreds of people were taken away for questioning. On December 16 and 17, at least four more individuals were detained.”
Two local Christians, 58-year-old Lin Enzhao and 54-year-old Lin Enci, were labeled “principal suspects of a criminal organization” by the CCP, with locally-posted wanted posters charging the two with “picking quarrels and provoking trouble,” which ChinaAid noted is a “commonly used charge” by the CCP against religious and political dissidents.
Over the past several years, CCP officials in Yayang Town have attempted to forcibly destroy church property, including symbols such as crosses, and install CCP propaganda and imagery, such as the five-star Red Flag and the CCP’s constitution. Enzhao and Enci were key figures in opposing the CCP’s efforts.
Chen Yixin, director of China’s Ministry of State Security, is a native of the province and has led efforts to demoralize the Christian community there, including by initiating a program to destroy crosses in 2014 and install the national flag, the Constitution, laws, and socialist core values in Christian spaces and promote the “localization” and “politicization” of religious activities. However, the Christians of Yayang Town have resisted the CCP’s efforts for over a decade, hosting rallies and demonstrations and even confronting state police when necessary.
Following the mass arrests this month, the CCP hosted an “Elimination of Six Evils” demonstration, with SWAT officers and riot police deployed en masse “to demonstrate force, intimidate local Christians, and create an atmosphere of fear, framing the earlier law enforcement actions as ‘results of the anti-organized crime campaign,’” by which the government means the crackdown on Christians.
According to ChinaAid, police have stationed vehicles at the homes of known Christians, “disrupted” communications among Christians in the area, and have even gone “door-to-door” questioning church members and asking them to denounce Enzhao and Enci.
“Government-driven public opinion campaigns are spreading defamatory rumors portraying Christians as ‘unpatriotic’ or belonging to a ‘cult,’” ChinaAid reported. “This approach aligns with China’s recent trend of criminalizing certain religious activities. On September 29, China’s leader reiterated in a speech the need to ‘systematically advance the Sinicization of religion.’ Earlier, mass arrests at Beijing Zion Church saw pastors and church members detained on fabricated charges of ‘fraud.’”
In comments to The Washington Stand, ChinaAid founder and Senior Fellow for International Religious Liberty at Family Research Council Bob Fu said, “The massive pre-Christmas assault on churches in Wenzhou is a chilling reminder that the Chinese Communist Party fears the light of Christ most when it shines brightest.
To raid churches days before Christmas is not only an attack on Christians — it is an assault on human dignity, conscience, and the hope that faith brings to a wounded world.” He continued, “History teaches us that no regime has ever succeeded in extinguishing faith through force. These pre-Christmas attacks will only strengthen the resolve of China’s house churches and further expose the moral bankruptcy of state-sponsored persecution.”
The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) and other religious liberty watchdogs have repeatedly warned that China’s totalitarian regime is enacting human rights abuses against religious groups within the nation’s border. A USCIRF report late last year detailed mass arrests and the destruction or removal of church property, part of CCP President Xi Jinping’s “sinicization of religion” policy.
Religious groups and leaders who do not register with the official government-approved religious organizations are often arrested, imprisoned, and forced into “anti-cult” programs to “de-program” Christians. Earlier this year, USCIRF called on President Donald Trump to designate China as a “country of particular concern” (CPC) due to the CCP’s brutal oppression of Christians and other religious dissidents.

Light In The Darkness: Redeeming Technology To Tell The Greatest Story Ever Told
Scroll through social media today and you’ll likely feel a quiet unease. Artificial intelligence is replacing jobs. Algorithms are reshaping culture. Screens dominate attention. For many Christians, technology feels less like a tool and more like a threat–something to be tolerated cautiously, if not resisted outright. That fear isn’t entirely misplaced.
Tens of thousands of jobs are being disrupted by AI. Digital platforms can hollow out human connection. But history–and Scripture–reminds us of a deeper truth: technology itself is neutral. It is neither good nor evil. What matters is whose hands it is in, and what story it is being used to tell.
This Christmas season, one Texas church offered a compelling answer.
In Manvel, Texas, just south of Houston, The Church on Masters Road decided not to retreat from technology–but to redeem it. As part of its annual Bright Lights community outreach event, the non-denominational church used 1,000 drones to tell the story of Jesus Christ across the night sky. What unfolded over three evenings in 2025 was not a gimmick or a spectacle for spectacle’s sake. It was a bold, creative, and unmistakably Gospel-centered proclamation–written in light, motion, and wonder.
Bright Lights was free and open to the public, intentionally designed as a family-friendly event that welcomed the entire community, churchgoers and skeptics alike. The festival included a snow hill for children who rarely see snow in South Texas, live music, bonfires, free food and hot chocolate, inflatable games, and a petting zoo. But perhaps the most quietly powerful feature was a car giveaway–two reliable used vehicles per night, awarded to individuals and families facing hardship who had applied in advance. It was generosity with no cameras chasing reactions, just love put into action.
Yet each night, as darkness settled, all eyes turned upward.
For fifteen minutes, one thousand synchronized drones rose hundreds of feet into the sky, forming scenes that traced the life of Christ–from His birth in Bethlehem to His sacrificial death. The Nativity appeared in glowing outline. Shepherds and angels took shape. The cross emerged in solemn clarity. Accompanied by a voiceover narration, the drones did more than entertain; they explained. The Gospel message was spoken plainly, faithfully, and without apology. In a world drowning in noise, the story of Jesus was told with precision, beauty, and reverence.
This is what it looks like when the Church refuses to confuse medium with message.
For centuries, Christians have used the cutting-edge tools of their time to spread the Gospel. The early Church relied on Roman roads and handwritten letters. The Reformation surged forward on the back of the printing press. Radio and television carried sermons into homes that would never open their doors to a pastor. The internet itself–now so often criticized–has delivered Scripture, worship, and testimony to the ends of the earth.
Drone technology is simply the next chapter in that story.
What makes the Manvel event so powerful is not the novelty of the drones, but the intentionality behind them. This was not technology used to impress, but technology used to serve. It was art in the service of truth. Innovation in submission to mission. The Church on Masters Road understood something many believers are still wrestling with: if the world is going to be shaped by technology, then the Church cannot afford to be absent from that shaping.
As we look toward 2026, this becomes a challenge for all of us.
Not everyone has access to drones or advanced software–but everyone has gifts, talents, and resources entrusted to them by God. Some are skilled in design, coding, or media. Others in hospitality, organization, storytelling, or generosity. Some understand emerging technologies deeply. Others simply know how to bring people together with warmth and purpose. The question is not whether we have something to offer the Kingdom. The question is whether we are willing to ask how it might be used.
Fear leads to retreat. Faith leads to creativity.
The Church does not need to mimic the culture, but it must engage it. We do not dilute the Gospel by presenting it through modern tools; we amplify it. The message of Christ has never depended on the medium–but every generation has been called to steward the mediums available to them.
On a December night in Texas, a thousand drones silently declared what angels once announced over Bethlehem: “Good news of great joy, which shall be for all people.” The sky became a canvas. Technology became testimony. And the Church reminded the world that innovation, when surrendered to God, can still point unmistakably to the cross.
The question now is ours to answer: in the year ahead, how will we use what we’ve been given–not just to keep up with the world, but to invite it into the greatest story ever told?
GOG AND MAGOG UPDATE
SHOCKING: Syria drops Golan Heights from map, recognizes Israeli control
Damascus has finally updated its map of the country, placing the strategic plateau on the Israeli side of the border.
The government of Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has apparently given de facto recognition to Israeli control and sovereignty over the Golan Heights, dropping the strategic plateau from an updated state map of Syria.
Syria lost the nearly 700-square-mile Golan to Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War.
Six years later, during the Yom Kippur War, Syrian forces briefly occupied part of the Golan before the IDF recaptured the plateau and advanced on Damascus.
While Israel applied sovereignty over most of the Golan Heights in 1981, with the US recognizing the move during the first Trump administration, Syria has for decades rejected Israel’s annexation and demanded the Golan be ceded as part of a future peace deal.
Last Friday, however, the Syrian government released a new map of the country, redrawing its own borders to reflect the loss of the Golan.
In a post celebrating the repeal by the US Congress of the Caesar Act, which tightened sanctions on Syria, the Syrian Foreign Ministry shared a visual of the updated map of Syria and the Syrian flag, under the caption “Syria free from Caesar sanctions.”
The new map appears to remove not only the two-thirds of the Golan retained by Israel under the 1974 separation of forces deal with Syria and annexed in 1981, but also the additional roughly 100 square miles in the former demilitarized zone occupied by Israeli forces since last December.
The Al Thawra Al Souria newspaper, a mouthpiece of the Syrian government, has also begun using the new state map.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), an anti-Assad, London-based Syrian nationalist outlet hostile to Israel, castigated the al-Sharaa government over the move, calling it “full submission to US dictates and the fulfillment of all Israeli demands.”
“These maps used by the caretaker government, particularly by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, are identical to the maps currently used by the Israeli government and various Israeli media outlets.”
