Two Christian Women in China ambushed and accosted.
Our good friends at China Aid are reporting on an event that I find deplorable, and must admit that I don't know how I would have handled the situation had it been me. But it reminds me that we can't necessarily prepare for such events but in fact our Lord supplies the need when they arise.
Two women were at home when city officials and a mob of other people broke into their apartment and accosted them because they were accused of being an unregistered religious group.
Here is a link to the report and a snippet:
Fifty Officials Ambush Two Women in Zhejiang
The group lectured the two women and told them they were conducting an “illegal gathering” and threatened to arrest them. In fact, there was no gathering -- Shao and Song were the only two people there. One person out of the group of 50, named Song, told the women that they must not live in that apartment any longer, and return to their original provinces; Shao Yajun is from Hunan, and Song Tingting is from Jiangsu.
Not only did the women have to put up with these people breaking into their apartment, but, without a warrant, the officials searched through all their stuff, video taping and photographing personal items and letters.
