If this doesn’t cause the Church of Jesus Christ to arise, nothing will. Several weeks ago, I issued a warning that has now become painfully real.
I predicted that the Democrats on the Left would use the pandemic to permanently control the church.
On May 1, I had written:
“Long after the virus is no longer a viable threat, every State under Democrat rule will keep churches closed as long as possible.
And even after they allow us to open, there will be permanent irrational limitations placed on us.”
And these were my exact words on March 15:
“Few things are more dangerous right now than the state drifting from justifiable health guidelines into police brutality.
Only a fool doesn’t know about the growing outright hostility toward Christians in the Blue states.
Their mouths are watering at the prospect of shutting down churches.
They are looking for any excuse, and we must rebuke all demonic power and ask God to cause the fire of revival to fall on churches everywhere.
The disruption of churches in America is from Satan. Pure and simple.”
Kansas City, MO, Mayor Quinton Lucas (D) issued the threat I warned you about:
“As Kansas City begins reopening, the local government is requiring every church who wishes to provide services to turn in, when asked, a detailed list of every person who enters their building for services, including name, phone number, and address, so city officials can use it for surveillance and tracking purposes.
Failure to comply could result in up to 6 months in jail and the church being completely shut down.”
Do you honestly believe their surveillance will end after the pandemic?
Do you think the data they collect will be deleted as soon as the virus is gone?
Red China has nothing on Missouri.
Any pastor, who won’t risk jail rather than comply with this order, is, in my opinion, a traitor to the Constitution, his people, and his Bible.
There, I said it.
The situation gets darker. Sacramento, California is the seat of this revolution to undo the rights of churches by using the virus as an excuse.
They make Mayor Quinton look like a moderate when it comes to planning and executing a police state.
California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) admits the pandemic was the opportunity to pull the pin out of the grenade.
When he was asked if he saw the virus as a political opportunity to advance progressive policies he said:
“There is opportunity for reimagining a [more] progressive era as it [relates] to capitalism,” Gov. Newsom said.
“So yes, absolutely we see this as an opportunity to reshape the way we do business and how we govern.”
Thus, California formed the Western States Alliance.
Their prima facie purpose is to coordinate the reopening of California, Oregon, Nevada, and Washington.
We know that this newly formed politburo will exert power long after the reopening.
They will work together to force socialism and atheism on America.
The U.S. Constitution is in their crosshairs.
This is California’s opportunity to accelerate their plan to weaken the local church and ultimately erase Christian influence from America.
Remember Assembly Bill 2943? Back in 2018, California tried to pass a bill that would have left a loophole open to make the Bible a “fraudulent document that could be banned,” because the Bible is opposed to “sexual orientation change.”
Now they are wounding the church by using nebulous guidelines for reopening.
Get this: They keep changing the rules to keep pastors off balance and delay their public gatherings until it weakens all churches, and closes some church doors for good.
Gavin Newsom said that first he will go after capitalism and then he is saying, “wait’ll I get my hands on the church.”
The next step is to sneak in new rules for how the church will operate.
Social distancing may continue indefinitely, putting an onerous burden on churches.
It will be a political siege designed to force churches to cave, and decide it is not worth it to buck the system.
So what does all this mean? And what action does it demand?
First, we must admit they have declared an evil war on us.
We must quit being cowards, and face the truth.
They are doing evil.
They want to drive the church underground.
Doubt that fact, and you are part of the problem.
Say it is someone else’s responsibility, and you are helping evil destroy America.
You know they are breaking Federal Law and the Constitution.
Every believer must wake up and do their indisputable duty: to oppose this evil.
The price of apathy at this point is incalculable.
The curse you are putting on your children and grandchildren is a nameless horror.
What specific action should we take?
Our action must first be to enter into Spiritual Warfare, but it cannot end there.
Our battle plan is drawn from 2 Corinthians 10:4-5,
“The weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood]. Our weapons are divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ…”
By the power of fervent intercession and unction in preaching, we must destroy the sophisticated argument that says the church should be oppressed by government, long after the pandemic is gone.
Then, when there is no reasonable danger of infection, pastors must reopen their churches, and if necessary, practice civil disobedience to laws that would keep their church shutdown for any reason that is demonstrably a matter of persecution and not a health issue.
If enough churches do this, it will go to the Supreme Court, and the states will lose power.
Furthermore, preachers must tear up every talking point that California, and the Western Alliance demands you to preach in your pulpit.
We must make it a matter of life and death to remain faithful to the Word of God.
Beyond that, we must operate our churches under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
If God wants your church packed out, then forget what the state wants.
Now, listen to me as you have never listened. Jesus said,
“On this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it” Matthew 16:18.
Do you believe that verse?
The ‘gates’ referred to are not just physical gates, but plans and strategies.
Jesus will never allow the plans that hell has to destroy the Church He is building.
If we want the power of this promise, we must be the Church He is building—we must build His Church, right through the gates of Sacramento, if necessary.
