An Australian bishop was stabbed multiple times as he was delivering his sermon Monday night, in an attack that came just days after six people were stabbed to death at a nearby mall.

Footage posted online Monday shows Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel speaking at Wakeley’s Christ The Good Shepherd Church when an unidentified man in a black hoodie confronts him.

The bishop appears to try to talk to the man, who then stabs the bishop’s face and neck...

A motive for the attack is unknown.

Emmanuel has gained a following online in recent years as an outspoken critic of COVID restrictions.

He described lockdowns in one sermon as “mass slavery” and has spoken out against vaccine mandates.

This was the Bishop from Syria who leads an Orthodox congregation in Australia.

I first ran across him because he issued a warning that if Trump is not elected then it is over for America...and he also warned that Trump cannot save America if we continue to turn our backs to God.

Whatever he is...it looks to me like a mostly peaceful stabbing, after a mostly peaceful mall massacre

A motive for the attack is unknown.

On Twitter, his congregants claimed the man was shouting "Allah Akbar."

I’d say the perpetrator is yet another mohammedan rage boy.

Talking doesn't work.

God bless this man who defended Donald Trump and suffered for it.

You’re right.

True that it was the end game between an armed opponent and a helpless unarmed one.

Those dang Australian Amish are at it again!

No, it sounds a lot like the Antifa supporters of Pale-stine.

Luke 22:36-38 If you don’t have a Sword sell your clock and buy one. Even though guns were confiscated.
