The pastor of Fairview Baptist Church in Southeast Calgary has been arrested for holding church services and “flouting” pandemic health orders, despite only 951 reported cases across all Canada yesterday.

Disturbing footage of Pastor Tim Stephens being hauled into a police cruiser as his horrified children looked on, sobbing uncontrollably, circulated on the internet yesterday.

"You had that gathering on June 6th, so that’s what you’re under arrest for,” an officer can be heard saying as a child sobs in the background. “Bye, daddy!” one of his children can be heard saying as he’s placed inside the SUV.

There’s a reason the government has disarmed the people of Canada.

Yep. Their nonsense made Jordan Peterson famous. Maybe it can do the same for this guy.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956

Did he break a law passed by the legislature? If it was just an order had martial law been declared? If this crap isn’t resisted it will be used in the future as “precedence”! Don’t Tread On Me!

And the police are being made loyal to government masters.

Being made to perform these heinous acts will make them obey orders without question.

It’s in Calgary, Canada, so not sure about that.

The government agency that went after the Pastor is evidently the AHS - health services agency......

The church in the southeast community of Fairview was ordered closed by AHS on May 17 and again on June 5 due to “ongoing public health concerns surrounding worship services during the pandemic.”

According to the orders, services with upward of 150 parishioners were held at the church and physical distancing was not maintained between separate households. Some of those in attendance were not wearing face masks, including Stephens.

How I wish that the Lord Jehovah would go “Old Testament” on those Nazis in Canada who imprison His ministers. A few lightning bolts, fire from Heaven, instantly dropping dead....that kind of stuff.

Totally goes against His loving nature, I know.

Your scenario has merit...... but there will be judgement coming against these bastards - hoping it will be sooner rather than later.

The people of Canada voted for gun control, they voted for Fidel Castro’s bastard to lead them. The people of Canada are mostly socialist and they want this kind of action.

Sadly, no police were killed during the arrest.
