A forum was held on November 11 at Northwest Bible Church in Dallas to discuss the exhibit of Chinese Bibles. The discussion was led by representatives of China’s government-controlled church and two professors from Dallas Theological Seminary. 
Reverend Kan Baoping, General Secretary of China Christian Council, stated at the discussion forum, “[We are here] mainly because some people in America continue to believe there is a need to smuggle Bibles into China… and Christians are being persecuted in our country. If we Christians in China were really under persecution, would we be able to come here and do all the ministries we do in China?”
