Investigations are underway after a suspicious trailer fire in Wilson County on Easter Sunday.

The Wilson County Sheriff's Office published a statement about the incident around 9:00 a.m. on Facebook. According to officials, the fire began around 6:00 a.m. and caused a road closure at the Old Lebanon Dirt Road and Chandler Road intersection.

Mt. Juliet Police Department swiftly responded to the scene, accompanied by the Mt. Juliet Fire Department who worked quickly to extinguish the blaze.

Early investigations, led by the WSCO, show that the trailer was full of Bibles. Officials believe that the trailer was intentionally dropped off in the middle of the intersection and intentionally set on fire. No injuries have been reported following the incident.

One of our reporters spoke with Sheriff Robert Bryan, who said he has no doubt the Bibles were burned intentionally. He says investigators are currently reviewing the security footage, and the car appears to be an out of state plate.

It seems unlikely that the arsonist will get right with God in time.

Well I'm certainly glad to see that there's no evidence of this being a HATE CRIME. After all, don'tcha know, HATE CRIMES never are directed at Christians, so it can't be a HATE CRIME.

On Easter Sunday no less. Not like it's, ya know, some IMPORTANT day.

Don'tcha know.

Sounds like someone is trying to rile up Christians. They've been demonized by the Left. Then the "funeral" at St. Patricks, then a very public celebration of transgenders on the holiest weekend of the Christian calendar, pro Hamas protesters trying to disrupt Easter services, now this.

I'd say Christians need to keep their wits. A suspicioys person might say all this is being "sponsored".

Some have been destroying Bibles since Jehoiakim Burned Jeremiah’s Scroll.

For the Bible to be just a book of fairy tales and myths it sure causes Kings and rulers to become unnerved by it.
Antiochus Epiphanes sent his troops to destroy the Jews and especially their bible. What was in the book that shook him up? It’s just myths and fables!
Three hundred years later the Caesars sent the Legions of Rome to destroy the Jews, Christians and especially that book of myths and fables! What was in that book of myths and fables that shook the Caesars so bad?
Three hundred years later out of Arabia came the Moslems demanding you accept THEIR KORAN or die! They destroyed the Bible every chance they got. This fight is still going on today and bibles are still forbidden in Arabia.
Over time the bible became the property of the elites of Christendom as most people could not read Greek and Latin. As soon as men began to get better educated it was suggested it be translated into the common language of the people, and the battle lines were drawn between the elites and their Greek and Latin bibles and the common people who wanted it in their own languages. What was in that book of myths and fables that the Elites did not want the commoners to see?
Today the Bible is translated into over one thousand local languages but is till forbidden in parts of the world. What is in a book of myths and fables that upsets them so?
Now think, WHAT BOOK of myths and fables can you think of that YOU would give your life to protect so people could read it? Aesop’s Fables? Mother goose? Origin of the Species?
Why did so many men allow themselves to be tortured and torn apart by wild animals in the coliseum just to protect a book of fables!
And today that book of myths and fables upsets the liberals so bad they actually foam at the mouth and revile it and burn it! Why, if it is just a book of myths and fables.
Maybe it it is more than just a book of myths and fables. Why not read it and see. It just might scare the HELL out of you.

Who the heck drives around with an open trailer full of Bibles anyway? Whether on fire or not, that's a little odd, isn't it?

I have a buddy who lives in Nashville, a fine Jewish fellow. I'll have to ask him what he thinks the significance of this desecration is. I'll bet he has some choice words for people who desecrate Holy Scripture.

People who don't know how to read at all (and that was the majority of the world until relatively recently in history, even up to the early 20th century) don't clamor for Bibles. The majority of people throughout history were uneducated because they were too busy scratching out a living. There have always been personal versions of the bible for those who could read and could afford them--we see many examples of them in museums and mentions of them in the writings of the saints (until the invention of the printing press all Bibles were hand made and could cost the equivalent of a years wages for the average person).

Although not on a scale with the Nazi book burners, I have always cringed at the memory of reading about June 17,1242.
King Louis IX of France ordered 24 carloads of Talmuds to be confiscated and burned. This was before printing presses so it meant long hours of labor to write them out line by line by hand on pages to bind as books so very few were around.

Today books are on the defensive due to the internet (which can erase the books and the descriptions of them in less than a second if they aren’t “woke”) but they need to be preserved.

By the way, the Leftists are still behind in their Satanic mission. Over 100 million Bibles are bought each year. Still the number one bestseller.
