The article at the link includes a graphic showing that only 15.16% of churches have security measures in place as a safeguard against terror-related attacks.

58.39% do not.

26.45% poll takers are not sure.

==========================================

All this follows reports the last few years that there are 30,000 Iranian sleeper agents in place in the USA with the sole task of assassinating preachers, pastors, staff of churches.

PRAYING ALWAYS is becoming increasingly CRUCIAL, Brothers and Sisters in The Lord.

The day the muslims try this, they will for sure awaken a sleeping giant. There will be no doubt at to the shock and awe that will happen then.

“15.16% of churches have security measures in place”

I usually carry my own security measure...

So much for the religion of peace, living in peaceful co-existence with its neighbors.

And, so much for the Muslim apologists who tell us that Jesus was an honored prophet in Islam, and that Christians and Jews are honored as “People of the Book” in Islam.

I am still amazed, tragically amazed, that we are not allowed to talk about Muslim terror, even when the perpetrators shout “Allah Akhbar” (sp?). We’re not supposed to jump to conclusions about what motivates the terror.

I would like to talk to those people who have the “Co-Exist” bumper stickers, with religious symbols on them. I would like to ask them which of the major faith traditions represented has trouble co-existing with their neighbors of other faiths.

But wait!

I thought that the churches were the hotbeds of terrorisom. That’s what Janet Reno Nepolitano keeps telling us.

And, and, and, what about that RIGHT WING CHRISTIAN in Norway that shot up all of those kids and blew up a chunk of downtown Oslo?

The Media tells us we have nothing to fear from the pie-eyed followers of the genocidal, rapist, slave-trading pirate, evil tyrant, bloody savage Mohammad.

It’s the Christians, and Conservatives, and especially those that served in the Armed Forces ... THOSE are the ones we need to keep a close watch on.

Isn’t that right, Janet from the Sappho planet?

I am really surprised. No really. Strategically, this isn’t good timing. The muslims have the UK and the rest of Europe in the bag. All they had to do is wait 10 more years and the U.S. would follow suit.

With that said.

Lock and load. And get to the polls.

Sorry, but it doesn’t matter WHAT you do, you’re STILL going to hell, jihadi.

It’s a ruse.

If churches were the real target, we would not be hearing about it... it would just happen.

It would also be the most stupid move they could make
considering the level to which our christian culture has already declined.

If they are smart enough to get BO in the white house, then they are surely smart enough to know how to keep him there.
An attack like this against BO’s worst enemy (the Christian churches) right now would ensure their own destruction and wipe out all of their investments in this country so far.

We must be guarding something they really want to attack.

But go ahead Jihadis... make our day.

You’ll soon discover why we have a 2nd amendment.

But more importantly, you’ll learn why this is one nation under God... regardless of who is in the white house.

Our church is a very soft target and as chief usher I am pretty much the first, second, and third line of defense against armed intruders- pacify, be polite, wait for an opening to call for help/obtain weapon. Actually, my secret weapon is all the older ladies that would berate anybody foolish enough to interrupt the service.

This would be the socialists’ dream come true. A bunch of dead Christians and other fearing going to church.

They have been directing Muslim rage at Christians in the media and in Obama’s government. It’s their latest diversity hate for power game.

It would be a huge mistake if Muslims were stupid enough to take the bait.

Americans have heard many times present and past, the word compromise. Americans are told constantly compromise built and was the fundamental building block of the nation at the founding of our nation, and what lead our nation into being. America's beginning was based on compromise. This is what Americans are being told.

Quix, I believe the thought of America was founded upon compromise to be a lie to promote subjugation of our population. I believe America came into being because Americans refused to compromise. Americans fought the British to begin this nation. War is not a compromise. Americans met to create a Constitution after not having compromised with Britain. There was a Bill of Rights, the first Ten Amendments to the Constitution because the states being represented refused to compromise otherwise the Constitution would have never been ratified.

Yet there are those who tell us America was founded by compromise. A rewriting of history to make Americans believe compromise is the meaning of America. IMHO ... nothing could be further from the truth .... for God does not compromise, He simply turns away, as America has done until the time when there can be no compromise.

God created America. This nation was founded upon the laws of God. This is what I believe. In the end, God will not compromise and in the end, should God allow America to remain, America will not be allowed to remain, by God, because America compromised.

Just some thoughts of the current events in the present. All thoughts are my thoughts. I claim full responsibility for those thoughts.

Thanks Quix for allowing me to vent.

Some thoughts, not necessarily in any kind of order:

Security in churches is far more likely to involve dealing with ex-spouses and the mildly deranged, than actual violence.

Firearms trainer Jon Hodoway has some reflections on church security, I think here.

Most places, by law, churches are victim disarmament zones.

And, as a historical example that can be learned from, the St. James Massacre, from apartheit era South Africa. An ANC terror squad started to shoot up a church, and were driven off my a man with a 5 shot .38 snubby. Charl van Wyk's story: Shooting Back.

Wow.

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty, I will say of Yahweh, He is my refuge, and my fortress, my God, in Him will I trust.

Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. He shall cover you with His feathers and under His wings you shall take refuge. His truth will be your shield and buckler. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night nor of the arrow that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

A thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look and see the reward of the wicked.

Because you have made Yahweh, Who is my refuge, even the most high your dwelling place, no evil shall befall you nor shall any plague come near your dwelling. For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up lest you dash your foot against a stone. You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra. The young lion and the serpent you shall trample under foot.

Because he hath set his love upon Me sayeth Yahweh, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high because he has known My Name. He shall call upon Me and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation.

This is the Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

(Psalm 91)
