Excellent. Churches need to stand up against everything the government does against the Constitution, in every realm. Unconstitutional actions are unlawful, and that means Christians are not required to obey them.
... and the Church is not buildings. The Church is, and has to be, the community of believers. Believers in the Word, not following the fallible people who claim to represent the Church.
Problem is we are on the second generation in which parents are not taking their children to church. The children are not getting the training regarding "love one another; be kind; be of service; follow the 10 Commandments; read the Bible; honor your mother/father; etc. So a generation missed the Sunday school lessons and when they became parents they did not know anything about going to church or the lessons and these had not been reinforced in the home. Fortunately, there are parents who take their children to church every week and teach children at home and give them process skills by giving them chores. The sad part is that there are fewer people in church each week and it shows in our communities. Oops!!! How do we fix this?
How you raise your children don't matter much on the scale of a country, especially in the long run, when the amount crossing the border (1.1-2.5M) are very close to the amount born within that country (3.59M). Especially so when no vetting or obligations are put on those people crossing the border while they also tend towards having more children than nativized citizens.
Well, things like inquisition and the concept of heresy likely played a part in the strong adherence and attendance even for several generations after the New Christianity were adopted. As did the way it used to be strongly integrated in both government and military; on that note, many European parties have been caught selling governmental positions in exchange for votes to imams, whom control the votes of their congregations.
To instead go to the other extreme, of modern day, and turn the other cheek, and then the other, and again; until the cheekbones are showing is not a good way to attract the common man, nor a good defence for any grouping.
Could somebody post Peter's mail address so we could send him letters of encouragement. I really miss the interviews he gave. An amazing man!!! WHERE oh WHERE is he so I can lick a stamp!!!
We are heading towards a totalitarian society and in such an environment literally EVERYTHING is political.. God is the Lord of EVERYTHING and thus the church cannot use pretended political neutrality as an excuse
Absolutely true. Thank you Peter for enlightening everyone
Under your duress circumstances. You are a true patriot. Thanks so much!💕👍

Mosques ARE NOT CHURCHES
