They'll do anything to separate themselves from those icky Christians who insist that the Bible is to be taken seriously.
The Bible speaks of sins of commission and sins of omission. Even "good" churches, such as mine, have remained silent about what has happened since 2020. Our shepherds have not pulled the sheep back from danger and now we are seeing the resulting devastation, in the form of needless covid and vaccine deaths, as well as strokes, aggressive cancers, heart problems, neurological problems, and other debilitating vaccine injuries. It's so strange that it can't be mentioned. When I speak out, I'm usually met with uncomfortable silence or scolded by being told that the vaccines have kept many out of the hospital or, more maddening, that "I had all my shots and I'm fine!" When we finally get to the Nuremberg moment and it can't be hidden any longer, I want to see these people's faces. They will probably think the criminals are being treated unjustly. It will be too painful to realize that they allowed themselves to be so thoroughly fooled.
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. Some of those folks are scared shitless. They haven’t taken the red pill, but they have taken a pink one, and they woke up jus enough to be scared of what they’ve done.
Great comment. One of the churches I wrote about above held a Bach recital, but insisted on proof of "vaccination" in order to attend. Sin of commission.
As to sins of omission, only once in the last 20 years have I heard my pastor speak out against abortion. And that was only a month before he was leaving on new assignment.
Our pastors speak out on abortion and we participate in prayer walks to abortion clinics. We also support foster and adoptive parents. I can only assume they consider the vaccine issue to be too political. Not to mention, one of them who was jabbed (not all were) just returned to half-days at work, after being out for a month. He had bronchitis, pneumonia and covid (!) but he probably thinks it would have been so much worse had he not had the miraculous vaccine!
Use the Pureblood creed "Thank goodness I am not vaccinated. It would have been so much worse!" The look on the covidiots faces is priceless 🤣 The key is to say it with a straight face. 😉😄
totally agree. Stopped going to church when face diapers were obligatory, no more than 25 worshipers at a time, church wiped dwon 2 times every service, everyone injected etc. Saw a former friend yesterday insisting I come back. Nope. Church in the woods, with dog and cats who did not refuse me.
Most of the churches have been positively supine, do not really differentiate between good and evil, and by sins of omission are an ally of Satan. Man cannot live without truth (and justice). And in my experience church pastors do not uphold truth and/or Christian Biblical morality by application to the culture. Nope! Instead it is all this Woke virtue signaling excrement.
Fear is a powerful tool. It is my belief that if you have true faith in Jesus Christ you surrender your fear to Him and move one. Let Him deal with it and you will be under His protection. Can’t get any better than that.
Yes!! I decided very early on, when I was somewhat fearful, that I had no control over whether or not I got covid. God is sovereign and it was up to Him whether or not I had covid. I DID, however, have control over whether or not I got jabbed and the longer I waited and studied, the more certain I was that I would not be. Getting the jabs is simply Russian Roulette, with no benefit. I trust God, but after all this, I trust very few humans and certainly not our government or healthcare system.
Truth! I tried to tell people that what was happening was right out of the playbook from Nazi Germany. Then it hit me that many of the people probably have no clue about the play book of Nazi Germany! We cannot continue to let your society be dumb'd down by the woke left!
I was always wondering why in the past there was the whole city to see the (gruesome)hangings well now we know. They wanted to.make sure its done. And it was done only this time it might take so long that the criminals died a natural death.
There's a lot of differences within Methodist church. Some (minority) are still very solid and biblical. Others are totally Woke. Many in between. You have to look at each individually if you need to make a judgement.
I left it, too. The minister constantly preached about “checking our privilege” as nauseum. Then Covid and masking plus shut doors and online church pretty much sealed the deal.
To tell the truth, most denominations are probably woke now. Your best bet is a small country church.
However, the preacher in this huge church in Murfreesboro, TN with a bad sounding name and a huge online presence is not. He may not be affiliated with a national church. I’ve listened a couple of times. My daughter listens occasionally. Here’s the link:
I've been a member and Sunday school teacher in one of our local PCA churches for over 25 yrs. We shut down briefly then delayed resuming Sunday school until some of the schools were reopened. Left the PCUSA (Presbyterian Church USA), as a lifelong member because a new PCA was forming and I wanted Scripture taught from the pulpit. No church is perfect, after all church is not a cathedral for saints but a hospital for sinners...
The fact that churches closed will be looked back at as a dark time in America's history. We never ever should have closed our doors!
Thank you. I didn’t k ow about that denomination. I don’t know if any are in my area. We have Presbyterian and Cumberland Presbyterian. I think CP is probably liberal.
I left my former church when the rainbow no longer represented God's promise to Noah but instead their inclusiveness for the alphabet people. Heathens! The Lord will let them know his displeasure.
The evil ones will always take a symbol used by God in His Word and twist it to deceive and fool people. The rainbow is a prime example. So is “take the vaccine to protect others; it’s the ‘kind’ thing to do.” Don’t be fooled!
Anne if you read about Nazi Germany, the church members just sang out louder to drown out the screams from the Jews being railed by box car to the gas chambers. Our churches failed us all!!
I think the globalists and money have infiltrated many churches. Ours was overtaken a few years ago. They accused pastor of a sexual harassment that occurred in 1981. Lol. He put his hand on her thigh and hugged her a bit longer than she thought he should. He was ousted. They then removed almost every single leader around him. The entire team was different in 6 months. New pastor came in, covid hit, church closed, then they had BLM parade in lot, opened church but mandated masks, we started hearing DEI stuff, worship team didn't have one white person on it any longer, not one!, then video on asian hate. We left!
Wow! Praise God my church is not like that! Very doctrinally sound, just quiet on this one issue. We had online services for a little while, then had services outside for awhile. Then, for those who were paranoid and unable to come maskless, we had a mask-only service for them. We have three services each week. I think we handled the closing situation fairly well, as in the beginning, we didn't understand what was going on. Even the good doctors and scientists who are helping were, in some cases, fooled in the beginning and got jabbed. Dr. Robert Malone was injured by the jab.
Wow, that's really bad. Good for you for moving on.
I am Catholic and much dismayed about Francis' Globalist tendencies. Such a disappointment after the very orthodox JPII and Benedict. Various bishops are pushing for the acceptance of gay unions.
Hang in there. Stand strong in faith, Heather H. Keep praying!
I am not Catholic, but regularly check out Lifesite News. I have been seeing a lot of concern expressed about the Pope. I was under the impression that the Pope was considered to be infallible. What can be done when things are so bad that a recent headline asked, "Is the Pope a Catholic?" This is a true crisis, in my opinion.

one friend has had at least 2 jabs and Altzheimer in the family. Scared out of their brains.

“Would have been so much worse...” around here we call that the Covidiots’ Prayer.
The Branch Covidian creed.
Use the Pureblood creed "Thank goodness I am not vaccinated. It would have been so much worse!" The look on the covidiots faces is priceless 🤣 The key is to say it with a straight face. 😉😄
oh my Annie I will have to rehearse that before the mirror until I can
This is awesome. Ridicule and humor are the way forward.

Churches were compliant and are are therefore complicit
Teachers and schools
Doctors and hospitals
Corporations
We were short on bravery and HEROS these past two years
Mob mentality ruled
Same as during the Holocaust

Jack Hibbs, Chino Hills Ca....none better....follow him. "nuff said
How do we follow him? Can you give a little more specifics?
https://jackhibbs.com/
App available as well
Thank you! I will give him a listen.
He’s deeply biblical but takes on the cultural issues too. Actually EQUIPS the saints for what’s here now & for what’s coming.
Another good one is JD Farag (Hawaii). Jack is in California
This. How do we lovingly call our congregations to repentance?
I gave up on the Methodist church. It's too woke for me.
There's a lot of differences within Methodist church. Some (minority) are still very solid and biblical. Others are totally Woke. Many in between. You have to look at each individually if you need to make a judgement.
PCA?
I left it, too. The minister constantly preached about “checking our privilege” as nauseum. Then Covid and masking plus shut doors and online church pretty much sealed the deal.
My favorite Methodist church got in line for the jabs & can’t understand all the heart problems & cancer now
Ditto
none stayed open during last year. I think the catholic was the last to close and first to reopen.
Check out Jack Hibbs on you tube. All bible based and he is fighting the crazy CA govt. Calvary Church Chino Hills. I watch all his sermons
Also John MacArthur in CA.! Solid, Biblical teaching and never closed their doors despite intense persecution!
Yes, Jack Hibbs understands the times we live in and is not afraid to stand for what is right!
My son and his wife found a non-woke church. They have given up on the Episcopalian Church they had been attending for the same reason.

You can listen and decide for yourself.
What does PCA stand for? It seems like independent churches, but I’m not familiar with that.

I'm glad I don't have to worry about that. I am quite certain it will not happen at my church.

So sad to see the pastors all in on the "woke" agenda.

Lifesite News is fantastic!
Here's a good piece explaining some of the misconceptions about Papal Infallibility: https://www.churchpop.com/2018/01/15/5-myths-about-papal-infallibility-too-many-people-still-believe-maybe-even-you/
The vast majority of devout Catholics I know oppose the direction Francis is taking the Church.
Have a good day, Anne.
