Churches only address immorality that they see and that is a lie. What you call sin is not sin any more. You are the heathens of the modern age and religious acts should not be aloud to be practised in public places. get off then internet and go back to your cave How much longer will churches be allowed to freely address immorality in our world, call sin sin, and call this nation to righteousness?

He intentionally went to this event to stir the pot and thus was arrested for disorderly conduct. Look up your state rules on the issue. Now, if he had obtained a permit to pray at that location then fine. Nobody should be subjected to listen to religious banter or talk in a public place. Go prayer in your home or church but as an atheist I find it disturbing of my peace in nature to have to listen to religious banter on a nice park day.

Oster Wed, 31 Mar 2010 04:44:08 +0000 http://speakupchurch.wordpress.com/?p=143#comment-9 No one is safe if you disagree with the Homosexual movement. You know these days are looking so much like the days leading up to when Jesus was crucified on the cross. We can't understand why the same crowd who waved palm branches for Jesus as he rode on the donkey would yell crucify him a week later. We can't understand why average citizens and the government would want Jesus crucified. They even wanted Barabas, a murderer, let go. The world back then was hostile to followers of Jesus and it is that way today. It is being played right before our eyes. How can anyone in their right mind, arrest these people for peacefully praying? How could people crucify Jesus who did no wrong? The Bible told us these things would happen. So why should we be surprised. But as Christians, we are to continue to look to God for our strength, and guidance to take a stand for Him, take a stand for injustice, pray for those who have suffered for taking a stand fo God, praying that we all will be bold to take a stand for Christ. These things are just the beginning. Continue to love our enemies, and pray for those who persecute us, pray for Joel and the rest of his team at ADF as they go out to rescue and defend those who boldly take a stand. Thank God for ADF.
