You do have the church in defiance of the government forbids the church To assemble physically.
That’s too far for the government to go.
It is wonderful to small w worship as a family. But there is Worship commanded by God that happens on Sundays and it’s run by biblically ordained elders and the gospel is live preached and baptisms occur and communion is taken. Offerings are brought and there is corporate live prayer and singing. Not replaceable by livestream or family or etc.
Well it’s certainly preferable....you just have to wonder at what point, Christ’s admonition that his followers buy swords comes into play. A person might martyr himself for Christ but he mustn’t let his children if he can help it be martyred along side. There certainly is room for defense.
A larger message should start to go out to the peoples that we have influence on beyond this forum and ask the question.....”So how do you like your little taste of North Korea?”
