Grace Life Church has been in the news before, as pastor James Coates was arrested for holding in-person worship services.
EDMONTON, CANADA – Canadian Police have placed barricades and tarps over Grace Life Church in Edmonton Canada as of Wednesday morning. The goal is to prevent worshippers from accessing the building.
Grace Life Church made headlines earlier this year after its Pastor, James Coates was arrested for holding in-person church services in defiance of Government health mandates. Pastor Coates ended up spending over a month behind bars.
James’ wife Erin, posted this message to her Instagram this morning:
“This is what happens when you have freedom of religion in a free and democratic society: they jail your pastor for freely opening the doors of the church and serving Christ’s sheep and hurting people. Now they’ve chained the doors of GraceLife Church enclosing in chain link fence. This is all under the guise of a health order.”
Not only are Canadian Police on the scene, but a private security firm called ‘Paladin’ is on the scene. Paladin helped put up the numerous fences, and privacy screening materials. The church’s surveillance photos from early this morning show government officials parked on the property, along with people installing fences.
Father please grant our brothers and sisters there to stand firm in the Word and rebuke Satan’s servants. May Satan’s servants be destroyed and may the church grow and souls be saved all to your glory. In Jesus most holy name I humbly pray. Amen
So what. Unless an ACTUAL FIGHTBACK is the response, whenever and wherever tyrannical predations occur, there is no point in being concerned with the attacks
conducted by the armed Praetorians of the state. When they first appeared, they’ve already won…..unless an ACTUAL FIGHTBACK is the response.
Interesting comment. I am really interested in knowing what you have done to organize your neighbors to resist the tyranny we are in.
An honest comment, based in factual reality, not the idiocy of being a registered vOTER/vOTING.
This is what happens when the populace doesn’t have a 2nd amendment. If we lose our rights guaranteed by the Constitution, then this will look the same in America.
Agree……but your comment is extremely past-tense.
We already have the same situation in America, and have
so for some time now.
Law Enforcement doing what they do best, being thugs.
Oh look, there’s a playground set in need of crime scene tape. Call the Police!
I wonder what the police will do when they realize that Christians can worship OUTSIDE of the fence and that the building is NOT the Church?
They can go on Skype or other chat rooms, meet in private facilities, or simply home church with family. Seems in Canada this crackdown will be permanent so as to destroy the churches.
So the answer to tyranny is to run to private chat rooms and hide? A large group of people should go rip that fence down.
Brilliant and spoken by a wise man of God.
Forgive me Lord for what I was thinking.
Although, I do not like my right to worship infringed upon.
They should have worship service on the grounds instead LOL
Another Example of christians Not using Violence in their own Defense, when it is well called for.
And the christians I know all wonder why I don’t believe their Sheep Religion.
