We are a threat because words are powerful, particularly the Word of God.
Many churches have already canceled or restricted in-person worship. This was a wicked compromise. That'll become all the more obvious when they start to censor your streamed services for “hate speech” (e.g. Rom 1:18-32).
Your sermons will be removed from podcasts directories. The payment services will stop processing your tithes and offerings. They will get your leases canceled on the grounds you are a health and safety risk to the community.
Are you awake, Christian?
