Angry Christian

Oh dear! So far I have been arrested for: Complaining about the sale of pornography at the grocery stores and complaining about homosexuals kissing in the pews at Mass! Oh my! Is that social justice? Only if they get evenier with me for being too angry about what gets away with Crucifiying my Lord all over again.

Peace and all good,

Gail

P.S. Getting arrested really is no fun, so don't try this too often. Lust gets even!

I was arrested once for telling people about the holy spirit. heh. On the paperwork they gave me afterwards, it said I was dangerous. A danger to an immoral and deceitful society I presume, since I had not hurt anyone nor threatened anyone, but had been telling people about God's love for us..

yes indeed God's love is dangerous to them.

Demand the paperwork, to see what they are actually arresting you for, how they define it. Demand every single right you've got till they are red faced. Don't be a wimp, they love to pick on wimps hoping it will scare others.. stand up.. be a leader. They were red faced by the time they let me go.. they did not come right out and apologize, but they were literally trembling and very red-faced. Literally trembling. And would not look me straight in the eye.

oh by the way.. my crime.. which I was arrested for (not convicted because it's not a crime) .. the paperwork said.. I was telling people that the holy spirit is real and that God speaks to us.

Truly, I kid you not. And that was a dozen years ago things have gotten worse since then. And the people who accused me of this heinous crime? They claimed, yes indeed, to be Christians. They were United Methodists, so they claimed anyway.

What's the full story here? I know that it isn't illegal to state an opinion or witness to people, which leads me to believe that we aren't getting the full story here.

Were you intrusive? Did you witness at an inappropriate time?

Nope, just conversation with neighbors. Most sincerely, that is the main of the story.. omitting the fact that I did an awful lot of praying over that little town and I saw more ghosts there that I have ever seen in my life.

I think, truly.. they were masons.. seem to have had an enormous problem with something demonic and it led them to simply come after me for ridiculous things. Because of the praying, which they actually knew nothing about.

Claiming to be Christians.. seems actually they did not want any Christians in the area because of so much other activity they had kinship with.. something like that.

I was not unhappy to leave that little town. was just a short stop on a journey anyway.. a learning experience.

The Lord told me not to speak to those people.. eh.. i did not listen, my mistake. I did not comprehend.. understand.. i was saved only about a year at that point and egads on fire for Jesus..but not real smart.. and I could not comprehend that the Lord himself would say to me.. do not speak to those people.

my bad. lession learned.

Ringo, just because something "isn't illegal" doesn't mean you won't get arrested for doing it and charged with some other bogus crime. This happens all the time.

It tends not to happen as much in civilized countries like ours, but read through so many of the reports coming out of Muslim majority countries of Christians routinely being arrested and persecuted under trumped up charges of "blasphemy" or "insulting the Koran".

The accuser is very good at using the law to accuse the innocent, when he, in fact, is the law-breaker.

Do not let that evil demon throw you off your course. Seriously, best put on the armour of god on and introduce satan to your sword of the word of god. Do not worry mate. God is with you no matter the situation.

I have heard of this type of networking with the court systems where freemasonry is strong. That could be it.

To prevent future arrests , think about the skills of persuasion and how people learn. What is their real reaction, how do they take on new information, how are they convinced of a point.

Sometimes the most direct path brings the opposite results of what we'd hoped.

People come to realizations gradually, and like time to think things over. They won't admit it, but they align their beliefs with people they like and trust, to some extent. In some cultures, they really flock together, valuing relationships above all else in life.

So if someone intrudes in their space and declares things need to change, they overreact and defend their territory. It might not be right, or beneficial that they resist hearing correction.

But think of what will actually get them to that point of realizing what they're doing. It is not always the most obvious, direct approach.

The full story is that if your doing what your suppose to be doing, then your going to be persecuted for it.

John 15:20 (New King James Version)

20 Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you.
