They made their decree. Let them enforce it.

As long as mass protests are on going there is no reason church services should be banned. None.Zip. Nada.Zilch.

Dr MacArthur should be ashamed that he has put his aged congregation in more harm's way than is necessary.

However, I do feel that McArthur is being irresponsible here.
And as long as we’re discussing the government start imposing personal responsibility on people—are you sure church go-ers is the best place to start?

His congregation has every right to go to church and assume any risk they would like by attending mass.
It’s not your place or Gavin Newsome’s for that matter to take from them.

What makes you think his congregation hasn’t weighed the risk?
Has it ever occurred to you that they have and are willing to take that risk?
Plus, MacArthur isn’t forcing anyone to attend.

My own beliefs about religion aren't even relevant here, because it's absolutely batshit insane to tell a group of people they can't get together to do what they want and what they have a right to do because of a virus while the same people trying to forbid it have not one word to say about the thousands of worthless humans standing shoulder to shoulder terrorizing major cities every night. Not to mention that while these people are not only assaulting people and property in person, they are also spreading the very same virus and causing a huge spike in numbers. I'm about ready for some kind of shite to hit some sort of fan

Start the X22 report at 28:12 for about a minute.

If it goes against the constitution, that ruling means nothing. Basically, no church should have been ordered to shut down. It’s all up to the pastor.

I listened to John McArthur on YouTube quite a bit.....he's an original bad arse for the Lord...love the man! This man knows his civil rights as well as he knows scripture.

The folks who attend McArthur's church understand the COVID19 risks and reasonable mitigation guidance......they've accepted the risk, they ain't skeered!!

Show one that was arrested for just being there and not following “guidelines”. One. Just one. Uno. Un. ee-chee.

Think about this for a second: the state and local governments are in support of "protests" that violate all of the social distancing and hygiene protocols that they are forcing on churches and everyone else yet those "protests" are tolerated if not encouraged while meeting in a place of worship isn't, or at least is very regulated now.
What are the "protests" bringing? Violence, destruction, thefts, rapes, murders, vandalism, and anarchy in the streets. This is tolerated.
What is being restricted? Church gatherings where people are edified, brought closer to one another, help one another, and provide support for each other and their communities to build and repair neighborhoods and lives and provide emotional and spiritual support for those who are suffering with the effects of the virus and its economic impacts.
Churches are being treated worse than liquor stores in many places though there is real good that comes from them, for both church members as well as their communities. This is being restricted while the violence occurring with these "protests" is supported.
It's sickening, but expected from people who hate Christ and His Church.

I'm baffled why they even banned churches in the first place. If they hate Christians and the virus is so deadly, wouldn't they want all the Christians to gather as often as possible? Then, they could spread the China virus to each other as much as possible and kill off all of the Christians?
It's almost like they don't even believe the China virus is dangerous and this is all about something else...
