Jared Cheshire THIS from pastor Joseph Castillo
We feel that it is very important, at this time, that we keep our doors open for anyone who needs prayer or ministry and to make ourselves available to minister hope and healing and comfort to them. We are the Body of Christ and the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe God‘s Word to us, which says to trust Him and to not be fearful but to have faith in Him. We are praying—as are our fellow Christians around the world—and we know that God answers prayers.
People everywhere are looking for their leadership – both natural and spiritual – to be calm and strong and to lead them through this. Because we will eventually come through this, as we have in the past. The last thing we need, in a time of crisis, is for people to be spreading false rumors and looking for somebody to attack, or a place to allocate blame. Right now, we need to rather all be working together to get through this

AMEN and AMEN Jared Cheshire Ricky Grimsley via Roger David Texas Churches of any size are not under any orders from the government to cease meetings. The Governor clarified this for us.
Church Services: I know that many larger Churches have gone to using the internet or televised services only. I understand that many smaller churches may still be holding church. I have had several local pastors call me regarding this question. Church services are protected under the first amendment and do not fall under this order. It is recommended that anyone holding church to please adhere to the recommended distance of 6 feet. https://www.kxan.com/news/coronavirus/gov-abbott-freedom-of-religion-means-churches-not-in-covid-19-order-but-many-making-changes/

Pentecostal preacher Tony Spell does not have the right to encourage sheep to risk each others life . Have you the Leaders of a religious society that tells others you love God and his ways and for them to fallow the footsteps of Jesus our savior , forgotten to read MATTHEW 6 1/19 ???????? He is defying the order only in order to get himself in the news , disregarding the risk of human life . All of you need to read the bible and live by it . Protect the people that support you and stop media hogs . If you embrace what he does , you are completely showing disrespect for human life and only care about publicity stunts .

Joseph Castillo LETS ALL face it on this one – RHB was arrested on anonymous phone call for doing exactly what GOD has called him to do – good shepherding of its people A shepherd FEEDS the sheep in time of plagues NOT send them to remote location and speak to them via a screen BUT with this precedent We WAKE UP in a NEW REALITY this morning A new social order if you will WHERE any preacher can be arrested on a simple anonymous phone call. IN AMERICA …. Despite of the the First Amendment
Joseph Castillo
We as a body of Christ need to stand up now. The powers that be are trying to make an example to un bolden the bold believers.
Varnel Watson
Joseph Castillo LIKE You JUST said Moblized from their bed to their bathroom, to the kitchen back to the sofa? Thats 99% now, but there are a few radicals here in Asia and in USA like The River in Tampa, and Victory in Tulsa mobilized, but here is the secret. They been out doing this for YEARS…. So those who werent are still not, but maybe in the next few days people will wake up, leave their home and be mobliized.

Troy Day , Where is the responsibility to do his best to PROTECT the church goers . You and he want to turn this into a right wing activist group quarrel about this right or that right . What about the rights of the public to be protected .You over look that aspect . Please read Matthew 6 : 1-9 . Also retouch with your bible reading and study about “Live By The Law Of The Land Until It Goes Against God’s Laws . Opening a place of worship is not wrong . No . But If the law of the land is doing what it can to protect the public , including the church goers , then abide by Matthew 6 : 1-9 . Remember the Bible was inspired by God to be written by man .You can do the public a favor and stop addressing this as a right wing activist garbage , and help them by fallowing the bible’s teachings .
