It's encouraging to note that foreigners who head to U.S. and U.K. are still exposed to Christianity.

However, Christian groups on college campuses may not be doing enough to bolster the kind of beefy, meaty "spiritual warfare" Christianity that can sustain individuals in the real world, whether in China or otherwise.

Yet large numbers of converts give up after coming back to China

How much of that is out of fear of persecution, or losing jobs?

Chinese Converted out West Are Losing Faith Back Home

So True!!!

Mark 16:17-18 King James Version (KJV)

17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Or their evangelistic methods and doctrine are not truly Biblical at all, which is the most likely factor.

It doesn't work here, either.

Could be that many of the religious groups abroad were more of a social club.
