If there were a prize in China for the first criminal arrested in 2021, the award would go to Christian Evangelist Chen Wensheng of Hunan Province.

According to a social media post by Bob Fu of China Aid, Chen was arrested and sentenced to 10 days in detention for sharing the Gospel on the streets of China during the New Years celebrations. According to documents, Chen was prisoner No. 0001 in 2021!

Clearly, Chen was not trying to secretly minister in China. He bravely went into the streets carrying a big fat red cross, wore a bright yellow jacket that marked him as a believer, and boldly proclaimed the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

BTJ applauds Chen’s audacity for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. “For I am NOT ashamed of the Gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes!” -Romans 1:16
