Why is Kim Jong Un 'afraid' of Christianity?

A persecution watchdog group has explored the reasons why North Korean leader Kim Jong Un remains "afraid" of Christianity, which go to the heart of people's beliefs about Jesus.


"It's likely because people who are following Jesus and who are committed to one another mean there are people he can't control, and who follow a greater King. 

It means there are people who practice radical love for each other and for Jesus — who won't so easily follow him and the lies of his regime," Open Doors USA suggested.

"This is why Christians continue to be seen as 'dangerous' and are also part of the hostile class, according to the country's social system called songbun. 

What this means is that anyone who is known to be a follower of Jesus is immediately assumed to be a hostile political figure."
