(continued from United Bible Societies)
What should Amity Press do?
• The Chinese Communist Party should allow Amity Press to supply Bibles to Xinhua Bookstore and other bookstores in China.*
• Amity Press should be allowed to sell Bibles to everyone. If cults like Eastern Lightning, New Testament Church or Shouters order Bibles, Amity Press should fill their orders. The only antidote to their heresies and the dangers they pose to the Chinese society is the true Word of God (see True Gospel).
• Surveillance cameras should be removed from Three Self churches, including their Bible selling counters. The Word of God should not be used as bait to lure, identify and catch Christians, including from the underground church.
• Amity Press should stop hiking prices for foreigners who buy its Chinese Bibles to give to poor Chinese Christians.
• The Chinese Communist Party should scrap its plans (see Sinicization of Christianity and religious freedom in China) to add Communism-promoting annotations to the Bible and produce a new Communism-friendly version of the Chinese Bible.
What else can be done to help Chinese Christians?

Dear Nanjing Amity Printing Company,
The world is curious about your continued development as a Bible printer. We would appreciate your answers to the following questions:
In 2011, how many complete (containing both Old & New Testament) Chinese Bibles did you print and ship to the Three Self Churches in China?
In 2011, how many complete (containing both Old & New Testament) Chinese Bibles did you print and ship to buyers in China who were NOT associated with the Three Self Church?
Up to how many Chinese Bibles can a buyer in China who is NOT associated with the Three Self Church purchase from you per order, and how long do you require to fill such orders?
Thank you in advance for your response.
