For some of you who feel the need to violate ordinances of maintaining yourselves and feel safe to resume church attendances, this applies to you. I believe you know who you are. Perhaps taking this to heart would do you a little good. My suggestion would be to please wait.

P.S. Umm. Don't gauge on demographics. These are the facts. USA a 'melting pot' in populous, so don't go there with your disputes. I'm not going to buy your excuses.

12 hours ago · Saint Peter's is among five Evangelical Lutheran Church in America congregations serving Hispanics in the New York area that have been hard hit by the coronavirus, according to the regional bishop, Paul Egensteiner. He said the challenges are particularly severe at Saint Peter’s because of the large numbers of undocumented immigrants

For with out faith it is impossible to please God 

Faith is still required by believers even during perilous times not just fear and surrender to unsaved directives

Matt28

(Christ said)Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen

 

The writing's of the Apostle Paul

Rom8:28-39

²⁸ And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. ²⁹ For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. ³⁰ Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.

 

³¹ What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? ³² He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? ³³ Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. ³⁴ Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. ³⁵ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ³⁶ As it is written:

“For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”

³⁷ Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. ³⁸ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, ³⁹ nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

I think you're understanding what I am seeing. 

Oh, thank God. I thought I might have blown it or something. Thanks for confirming that we do see eye to eye on the issue. You're a good bro. Sometimes when stepping out in faith I fall flat on my face! That's a relief to know. God bless you.

Good , but the kingdom of heaven is not found in religious buildings, but in the hearts that forgive n share happiness with those in needs, and we can remain in contact with fb, WA, phone twitter n Zoom meeting.

Hi,

Far as I know no one  is talking about buildings.

As for me I am still on a high in the Spirit, for the Holy Spirit was amongst us this evening at the park overlooking  the upper bay where we gathered, read scripture, discussed it, talked of aplication in our lives, prayed and praised God  while also sharing of our needs, our blessings, and of how God is leading each of us. oh so absolutely  lifting to gather and fellowship. Such perfect weather too. 78 degrees wind blowing sun setting, many others enjoying the park, families out, kids blowing bubbles into the wind and chasing them.

Praise God it is so very grand.
