"The CAG is the largest Chinese Christian new religious movement. It was included by the CCP in the list of the xie jiao in 1995, and is severely persecuted. Its members are harassed and closely monitored, often tortured while in detention. According to Article 300 of the Chinese Criminal Code, members of the banned xie jiao groups are given lengthy prison sentences for attending worship services, sharing the gospel, distributing religious books, or other regular religious activities".
