Church isn’t really a safe place these days. If the faggotry doesnt get you the crazed religious bigots will
Trump is seen with a Bible in D.C.
Attack June 1st 2020 at St.Johns Church.
The Season is the Reason.
And it certainly looks like legislative demoniacs want it to be worse, by criminalizing church security.

Hence the reason so many of us at my church carry whenever we’re there. As to the proposed legislation making it illegal to have a plan and carry it out, the adage about being judged by 12 or carried by 6 still applies.
So did crime in general. Shopping for outrage.
If you are a member of a biblical church, what is your plan when Christianity is outlawed, your buildings seized, and your pastor imprisoned? I'm not kidding when I say that every congregation should have a plan in place now, of how to prepare for this possibility.
Form a cell group structure. Plan how and where to continue meeting for clandestine worship (study how Christians in China, etc. do it). Plan how to safeguard church membership info (that's one thing that probably needs to be locked down now.) Implement programs to disciple and team cell leaders to function as other leaders are targeted. Plan how to conduct outreach, more than ever. Make it difficult to impossible for church finances to be targeted and seized (use crypto/stablecoin accounts etc.)
Above all, prepare congregations because persecution is coming. It is the norm (John 15:20, Luke 11:49, 21:12, etc.), we have had the exception. People need to get clear in their hearts and minds that when Satan's emissaries come demanding "compromise" that bricks and mortar and worldly things are worthless - be ready to walk out of church buildings as they are seized singing praise to God, without being troubled about it, rather than clinging to such things with shameful compromise.
That is terrible.
The figures show about 190 incidents during the Trump years in the period of study. The remainder are in the Biden years, about 725. And the number of incidents has been doubling every year since Biden took over. Thanks, Joe!
I wonder what the final trigger point will be for the boogaloo?
