Let's face it. The Chinese government just doesn't want Christian materials produced in their country. They're okay with their factories producing lead coated toys that kill kids and bullets that kill American troops in Iraq but they draw a big line in the sand when this guy, Shi Weihan, wants to print Christian materials.
Here's part of the story here at OneNewsNow:
So bottom line is this...Shi got arrested for printing Christian materials and put in prison. The world outcry was such that the Chinese government bent and let him out of prison. So Shi goes back to the presses and BAM! --- he gets arrested on a new charge.
And I ask the question of the readers here...how many of you, after spending that time in a Chinese prison, upon seeing the new sun light of the outside world and breathing the fresh air, would have the faith and bow to your calling to go back to your printing of G_d's word?
The Chinese will lose this fight again...they just don't know it yet.
Here's part of the story here at OneNewsNow:
A Chinese businessman, jailed late last year for printing and distributing Christian literature at no charge to the consumer, was released after international pressure -- but his problems are not over.
Daniel Burton with China Aid Association says Shi Weihan has been arrested again on an official charge of illegal business practices because he resumed printing and distributing materials to help spread the Gospel. Shi's family was not informed of his whereabouts, and his attorney was denied access to his client until recently. Those involved in fighting for Shi's release say the situation is urgent because Shi is diabetic and needs insulin, as well as other medication. His condition is described as "not good," and assistance has been refused.

Chinese printer jailed over religious material
A Chinese businessman, jailed late last year for printing and distributing Christian literature at no charge to the consumer, was released after international pressure -- but his problems are not over.
Daniel Burton with China Aid Association says Shi Weihan has been arrested again on an official charge of illegal business practices because he resumed printing and distributing materials to help spread the Gospel. Shi's family was not informed of his whereabouts, and his attorney was denied access to his client until recently. Those involved in fighting for Shi's release say the situation is urgent because Shi is diabetic and needs insulin, as well as other medication. His condition is described as "not good," and assistance has been refused. While Chinese authorities state that Shi is a dangerous religious element, they avoid admitting it is a typical case of religious persecution. Burton urges people to contact the Chinese Embassy in Washington to urge fair treatment for Shi.
