CONGREGATIONS ARE SUPPOSED TO CONGREGATE DURING CRISES AND ALWAYS
Do Not Let Your Church and Your Calling Be the Reason Why People Never Stick Up for Themselves
.
Many ordained men, prophets, and saints have been martyred or suffered greatly merely for serving God. Should we insult God in His Eternal Memory of them by refusing to lay down our lives as they did, for our churches, wives, children, and the Faithful?
.
Saint John Chrysostom, the Archbishop of Constantinople in A.D. 402 died during his cruel exile by Emperor Arcadius, whose paranoid wife Empress Eudoxia had felt personally insulted by the moral reforms exhorted by Chrysostom in his homilies.
.
Saint Athanasius, who expired in A.D. 373, was harshly exiled five times over 17 years as “a trouble-maker” for daring to be the most expressive of the handful of courageous remaining Nicene bishops who were opposing the takeover of the Church by the followers of the blasphemous Arius the Presbyter. The lapsed church under Arianism stated incorrectly that Christ was not God but a creation. As the legend goes, an outraged Saint Nicholas of Myra (“Santa Claus”), supporting the (correct) homoousios Christology, punched Arius during the Council of Nicaea (A.D. 325).
.
Óscar Romero, the Archbishop of San Salvador, was assassinated and martyred on March 24, 1980, while celebrating Mass at a small hospital chapel in San Salvador for his vocal defense of human rights and the poor during the onset of the Salvadoran Civil War. Often associated with Romero’s execution is Saint Tarcisius, who in the 3rd-Century A.D. was killed while transporting the Eucharist from Mass to imprisoned believers rather than serving at the altar during the service itself.

Can We Not Keep Our Churches Open in Honor of These Martyrs and for Love of Christ?
.
The Rational Position About Staying Open:
Although the Federal and state governments of the United States can shut down church buildings in declaring an emergency, or by any chosen purpose, congregations and missions must still gather together and must peacefully resist prevention to meet by all public agencies, or even by its own members or ministers. Staying open is crucial in order to persist as a Congregation or Mission within the peaceful places where the Rector judges that gatherings must always happen, in order to fulfill worship. No church has full legal, fiscal, or political right that is knowable as being or practically protected or granted by government to possess its property in full, or to gather without interference except in declaring that the First and Fourteenth amendments guarantee these “rights,” which the government sometimes contradicts without punition or deterrence, except by God.
.
The Church does, however, have the Dominion obliged to its people by the Bible (Genesis 1:26-28), to exist fully and never to stop existing and gathering. It sustains its Dominion to gather and operate, not as a full municipal right that is sustained and protected by any secular government constitution as a sacred thing or place, but as a free gift of God’s Grace to do so.
And without forfeiting its practice, liturgies, or pastoral guidance to internal church discouragement, fear, worry, or force, every Congregation and Mission shall continue meeting and operating always and wherever it judges and commands it should and can.
.
The Church Mandate of the Bible:
.
• The Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20), which commands believers to go make disciples of all nations, baptize them, and teach them to observe all of Christ’s commands. It also includes being a “pillar and ground of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15).
.
• Evangelism: Proclaiming the Gospel to all nations.
.
• Discipleship: Teaching believers to obey God’s commands.
.
• Sacramental Ordinances: Practicing Baptism and the Lord’s Supper of the Eucharist.
.
• Fellowship and Edification: Devoting ourselves to Fellowship, prayer, and breaking of bread (Acts 2:42).
.
• Defense of Truth: Upholding sound doctrine and refuting false teaching (1 Timothy 3:15; 2 Peter 2:3).
.
• Holy Witness: The church is to serve as a set-apart witness for Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8).
.
• No government can sanely mandate for, or against, what the Bible alone mandates.
.
USE DISCERNMENT WHEREVER FACTS ARE MISSING OR HIDDEN
.
Sadly, because medical licenses are revokable whenever doctors speak out against pharmaceutical companies–those financial watersheds who are chartered by the Federal Government to medicate/vaccinate the public–independent medical publishing has been forced to rely on research that sometimes contains data and claims that are difficult to substantiate.
.
Therefore, a list of citations and/or links for journals from which the above claims about fake vaccines and the governmental tyranny that seeks to mandate them could be derived is not herein included here in this writing for Christians to peruse at this time. They have largely been suppressed and refuted, falsely or not, and sometimes tend, out of understandable desperation, to use spurious citations to substantiate the reasonable claims that threaten the corporate-governmental cabal.
.
However, discerning Christians can compensate for the maddening lack of written scientific advocacy by boldly and discretely sharing words of Faith about their individual experiences so that they can mutually decide how, and to what extent, the data and claims of their shared histories merit discernible Truth, and to deliver mutually their lives from harm with vocalized Christian resistance in the face of the publicly empowered harm.

Just please talk and share info throughout Christendom. The “died-suddenly” infamy was real. Moreover, there were indeed people who died or were injured with Myocarditis and Vaccine-Induced Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT), etcetera, each with a vaccination for Covid-19 being named as the antecedent event.
