Forced Church closings are on the increase

Several nations are seeing an increase of forced church closing of unregistered and house churches.

The local government either supports or is behind some of these, or else is looking the other way and allowing radical groups to threaten church leaders and members into completely closing down their place of worship.

Some church leaders and members are complying out of fear of their life and property, others are standing their ground and facing potential imprisonment, loss of life and property as a result.
