I can probably know the answer of most of people on this, but doesn’t this corcern you? Even a little?

I mean, why is it legal to government decide for you what kind of treatments you want for you and your family?
And ban Prayers? You can obviously see where this is going.

I prayed that I might not get COVID, then went to get vaccinated as soon as my age group was eligible.

A man prayed for a blessing. God sent rain. The man had to tend his garden to get the blessing.

So you are not concerned? I mean to me this is obvious why they only ”allow” one treatment. Just one.

So if a child is rushed to the hospital and needs blood but his parents say they don't believe in giving him blood and choose to pray to save his life, you believe the doctors should just leave the boy to bleed while his parents try to heal him with prayer?

This would provide an incredible opportunity for people to get around having abortions as well as just killing their already-born children. And you are "concerned" that this is not allowed?

It's the secular world. All a Christian can do is be an example through behavior and allow the light of truth to shine through darkness. The things of God cannot be seen by those steeped in the way of darkness.

Why are you asking about the government and then posting an image from YouTube?

Are you aware that YouTube is a private company (Google) and is not the government?

This is a disclaimer to protect YouTube from liability (BTW, YouTube is not the government. ) There are tons of Word of Faith preachers who preach prayer over treatments. A grounded Christian does both. Blessings.

We have Moderna, Pfizer, J&J, monoclonal antibodies (Regeneron) and steroids. There is also oxygen and ventilators. Intensive care hospital bills might bankrupt families. Even if they survive, they might be ruined.

Your post is about You Tube video content. You Tube has nothing to do with what kind of treatment you may or may not receive. Also, You Tube is not the government or whoever “They” is.

I don’t think you understand what I was hoping from this topic. I was hoping a discussion about if this is concerning anybody and their thoughts about the topic. Like, where this is leading? Or how they view all these strange rules everywhere has today. It seems more and more that we have to walk on eggshells what we can ask or talk or do. But if you don’t want to discuss and respect different views then I understand and won’t post this kind of topic anymore. I felt this was my duty as a christian because this was about praying. Shalom.

It really isn’t about prayer though is it. You posted a screenshot from a You Tube policy and tried to claim it is government policy and then somehow banning prayer? Also you are supposed to post an article link in this area anyway.

If you think that people not talking about the thing you want them to talk about is oppression, I really struggle to understand your view on free speech.
