    If you believe as I said in the post to which you replied, then obviously YES, I am.

      Is there anything we do that is NOT "before God"?

      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        If you have a specific accusation you wish to make against me, then please do so.

          Christians often need to be reminded that we will have to account for all our actions on the Day of Judgement.

          For example, it is a serious charge if (for example) a Christian in this forum makes the accusation that I am an enemy of Christ.

            Actually, we are to test the spirits to see if someone is from Christ. And we are to know other believers by their fruit. So in spite of folks constantly bringing up the "judge not" verse, usually out of context, we ARE to judge whether someone is in the faith or not.

                Are you familiar with I John 4:1? Or where Jesus praises the church of Ephesus for "hav[ing] tested those who call themselves apostles and are not, and found them to be false" (Revelation 2:2)?

                  What? Nobody ever taught you the secret handshake? No need to judge when you have that

                    Are you a bit paranoid and live with some kind of guilt or something? I was merely correcting your clearly mistaken insinuation that Christians are doomed if they accuse someone of not being in the faith.

                    And what if someone here does accuse you of being an enemy of Christ? Do you have enough evidence to acquit you? Or will you be found guilty by the Judge of all.

                      Yeah, that's usually cited by somebody who's trying to deflect attention from their own bad conduct.

                            From this morning.

                            https://trinitybiblechapel.ca/we-los...xyAPQIJj3vkGHU

                            Today, a court granted the Province of Ontario the authority to take our facility, at least until next Saturday, with the option of trying to get it for longer by going to court once again this coming week. For some of those eleven months in our facility, we have met in contravention of provincial dictates. We have participated in what the public health people consider high risk behaviour, namely the millennia old tradition of gathering weekly to worship our Creator. Not one of our pastors has ever buried someone who has died of COVID. We have around 600,000 people who live in this region. There are 588 active cases of COVID in the region, with 32 people in the ICU with COVID. That’s enough to deem the public worship of Jesus Christ dangerous and enough for the Province of Ontario to kick us off our land and bar our doors shut. I’m not saying we’ll never bury someone who dies of COVID. I’m not saying COVID hasn’t brought harm. I’m only saying our experience doesn’t line up with the hysteria whipped up by government and media, nor do the numbers warrant turning control of the Bride of Christ over to the Premier of Ontario.

                            The purpose of this seizure is to prevent us from meeting as a church. They believe that we will continue meeting in our facility, no matter the fines or the public shame heaped on us. We are willing to pay any price necessary to worship our Saviour because He is worth it. He died for us, and we want Him to receive a reward for His suffering. Churches used to sing songs like Charles Wesley’s “O For A Thousand Tongues to Sing” and mean it. We still do. But it’s now cost us our facility. That’s after policemen sat outside our lot in cruisers on Sunday to chase our people down and ticket them after the service for gathering to worship. That’s after each elder received a ticket this past week for opening the church. That’s after the church itself received a ticket this week. That’s after we were convicted of our second count of contempt of court today. That’s after we’ve now received so many dozens of charges I’ve actually lost track. Combined we are facing over $40 million in fines with jail time. That’s not enough, so they’ve taken our building.

                              Look, for the record, I think you're a bit odd, but I don't see you as an enemy of Christ.

                              You do, however, seem somewhat reluctant to stand for His Truth, and to stand up to the prince of the power of the air.

                              I think you need to work a little more on the "I'm not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ" thing, and the "we will obey God rather than man" thing.

                                Me? At this point I'm merely noting that your objection to scrutiny and attempt to imply that it is unChristian is unfounded and erroneous.

                                As for myself I tend to lean on I Peter 3:15 whenever someone asks me questions along this line.

                                I'm always still in trouble again
