Escalation! State will fight John MacArthur & Grace Community Church.."CUTTING POWER"!!
Capstone Report ^

Posted on 07/26/2020 8:57:36 AM PDT by RevelationDavid

Johnson says, ‘State & Local leaders plan to cut power to the church’

John MacArthur challenges Leftist Tyrants; State promises crackdown

Conservative Pastor John MacArthur puts the People’s Republic of California on notice: Christ is head of the church and not Caesar.

Johnson says, ‘State & Local leaders plan to cut power to the church’

Compare Leftist love for riots, casinos and Black Lives Matter to how they persecute Christ’s Church.

In a powerful statement Pastor John MacArthur of Grace To You put the State of California on notice: Christians will not bow to oppression.

MacArthur argued for sphere sovereignty. He said that God ordained various types of authority like the family, the church and the state. Each is granted unique power from God and should defend its sphere of interest from intrusion by the others.

This is very good. It recognizes government has limited authority. This is critical in time like this where the very future of limited government is at stake. MacArthur’s statement will fuel a renewed Christian interest in defending both church and individual rights from government intrusion.

MacArthur does another important service by asserting our rights preceded the creation of the state. Thus, rights are not granted by the State or the Constitution. Thus, our rights are not resting on the good will of the state or even our Constitution, but rather God and God’s created order.

I have a few minor quibbles with MacArthur on political theology—but that is for another time. Now we must stand shoulder-to-shoulder with MacArthur, the elders and the people of Grace Community Church.

Pray.

If they can riot, why can’t we rally?
If they can loot, why can’t we shop?
If they can burn, why can’t we earn?
If they can slay, why can’t we pray?
If they can throw Molotov cocktails,
why can’t we throw cocktail parties?...

Why indeed?

"The state is big and powerful and can use force to get its way."

They'll knock the heads of worshippers together, but they won't knock the heads of rioters, assaulters, looters, or arsonists together.

Watching Live. If they cut power it didn’t work.

Pews filled to capacity. No visible masks.

Praise God.

Many of the commments on Christian threads (for example, The Christian Post) are condemning Grace Community Church and Pastor MacArthur for violating Governor Nancy Pelosi's Nephew's commands and for "not caring about the health of his congregation" and for "contributing to the 'pandemic'".

It is truly sad that so many Christians fear the Left more than they fear God, and it is truly sad that the most effective way -- arguably the only way to defeat the secular religious cult of Leftism is through religion itself. Secularism simply does not defeat itself.

Gun shops and gun ranges are still open in Massachusetts 6 weeks later despite Baker’s hatred of Trump (and the 2nd Amendment) getting stronger by the day.
