“It is very common for Christians to simply assume that they live in Mayberry, trusting that because they know the Lord Jesus, everything will always be fine and nothing bad can happen to them and their families,” Fride wrote.
I thought Sheriff Taylor and Deputy Fife had everything under control. This is truly shocking.

Meanwhile in Detroit.
Detroiters are even taking their guns to church. When Rosedale Park Baptist had trouble with drug dealers and car thefts, Pastor Haman Cross Jr. told his congregants from the pulpit that they should consider getting concealed-carry permits.
"I love the Lord; I'm a Christian," he says. "But like I told the congregation, let's send a message right in front. I want the word out in the community, if you steal any of our cars, I'm coming after you."
At another black church, Greater St. Matthew Baptist, Pastor David Bullock points out the pews that where his armed congregants usually sit.
"The chairman of my deacon board, he carries," Bullock says. "And then on the west side, there's a middle-aged woman who also carries."

Didnt Jesus physically deal with the Banker Gangsters? Popes endorse Crusades?

The Crusades are still a good idea, in my mind.

So did our priest. The nuns at my kids’ former preschool were on board as well, even though the sign at the door stated (per state law) otherwise.

Shucks --
I went to an independent Baptist church where I knew the pastor carried to every meeting. Both he and wife had CCDW permits. She killed a woodchuck in her garden from the upper bedroom window with a .38 revolver. Not bad at all!

Well, if you don’t like the reasons this Priest gives, try this on:
Someday soon Islamic Terrorists are going to raise the stakes here at home.
Christians and Jews need to protect their interests 24/7 starting NOW!
What?
You want to wait to get hit and then sign up to guard the ashes?

This time we shouldn’t wait until 400 years of attacks before we fight back.

Any perp should never know where in the church somewone might be who will shoot him dead if he fusses with anyone. IMHO. Why do we carry concealed, anyway?

"Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one" (Lk. 22:36 AV)
Jesus says if you don't have a sidearm, sell your coat and get one. This is not something debatable, girls.
