He is going fast now, separating the sheep and goats.
have a plan for when they show up at your church, and your doorstep (same thing for a Christian).
There are two cowards in the video.
The one yelling coward and the one being carried away.
Stand up and fight or else the showers are your next stop.
The cops are just following orders.
Remember?

And as for the thugs who participated, you are on the wrong side of history Canadian "Safety Police".
That’s a low life thing to say. Those are two brave men. You are the coward.
Christians in Commida will have to start meeting like those in the former Soviet Union.
“And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely: Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them” (Acts 16:23-25).
While I admire their courage in the face of diversity and the overreach of the Canadian authorities, I find myself asking, “What would Paul and Silas do?”
Paul, writing from prison said:
“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear” (Philippians 1:12-14).
People often pine for the “good old days,” when perhaps what we should be yearning for is a return to real New Testament Christianity.
Paul and Silas were arrested illegally and were under the cruel hand of a government that hated Christians and Christianity - yet they sang hymns and praised Jesus as they were bound in stocks. We have a tendency to fight and yell invectives (”Nazi! Coward! Gestapo!”).
How many will be both reached for the Saviour and encouraged to persist ministering to a world that hates them when we fail to demonstrate that we are rejoicing in the Lord, and again I say rejoice?”
Going to the Twitter link, there’s not ONE negative comment about the arrest.
Virtually everyone was applauding it.
When God brings down the curtain during the Tribulation, this world deserves what is coming.
But they’re right.
I will not fault them for that.
IIRC Christian Churches in Canada have been held to closer oversight for over a decade now as to contents of sermons from the pulpit. Remember as well the government basically brought about the shutting down of what was Canada’s equivalent to FR which was Free Dominion. The government is using COVID as an opportunity to further crack down.
Canadians, in general, have been putting up with socialist behavior from their government for many years. I wonder how the average Canadian, Christian or no, feels about this latest outrage?

The pastor is passionate in his rebukes because he is originally from Poland and has not forgotten history's pattern of tyranny, and where unjust and illegal actions may lead.
Sometimes a label of bad character fits.
Luke 13:32:
“And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.”
“The Holocaust in Poland”
“...Gas vans were hermetically sealed trucks with engine exhaust diverted to the interior compartment. Use of gas vans began after Einsatzgruppe members complained of battle fatigue and mental anguish caused by shooting large numbers of women and children. Gassing also proved to be less costly. Einsatzgruppen (mobile killing units) gassed hundreds of thousands of people, mostly Jews, Roma (Gypsies), and mentally ill people...”
