Summary:
Levi Browde, executive director of the Falun Dafa Information Center, discusses Falun Gong, a spiritual practice emphasizing meditation, qigong, and the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance. The practice saw rapid growth in China during the early 1990s, reaching up to 100 million practitioners. In 1999, the Chinese Communist Party under Jiang Zemin initiated a persecution campaign against Falun Gong. Browde describes the CCP’s methods during this campaign, including arrests, torture, forced labor, brainwashing, and forced organ harvesting, attributing the crackdown to the regime’s concern over the group’s independence and large following.

Scripture: John 16:2-3 (NASB 1977)
"They will make you outcasts from the synagogue, but an hour is coming for everyone who kills you to think that he is offering service to God. And these things they will do, because they have not known the Father, or Me."
Commentary:
Jesus names a pattern: persecutors can convince themselves they are doing good. In China, the state’s campaign against Falun Gong shows how power uses arrests, coercion, and medicalized violence to crush independent conscience. It is brutal. People in custody feel the fear first, especially when families cannot get clear information. Prophetic Scripture also describes end-time pressure where control systems punish those who won’t conform, and that pattern is sharpening in real-world governance and surveillance.
Prophetic Trend:
Authoritarian systems are normalizing coercion and surveillance to enforce ideological conformity, echoing biblical patterns of end-time pressure against independent faith and conscience.
