Government is Not God, And the Church IS Essential Christian Pastors are threatened for holding church services while Bibles and American flags are burned in our streets; athletes who stand for the National Anthem at sporting events are now considered courageous while kneeling in protest is practically expected. Pro-life protesters are arrested outside an abortion clinic for writing “Black Pre-born Lives Matter” in chalk on a public sidewalk, but vandals and rioters are free to spray paint buildings and public property in cities across the country. “it has never been the prerogative of civil government to order, modify, forbid, or mandate worship.” https://harbingersdaily.com/government-is-not-god-the-church-is-essential/
