Update (July 8): This week, Russian president Vladimir Putin
approved a package of anti-terrorism laws that usher in tighter restrictions on
missionary activity and evangelism.
Despite prayers and protests from religious leaders and
human rights advocates, the Kremlin announced Putin’s approval yesterday. The
amendments, including laws against sharing faith in homes, online, or anywhere
but recognized church buildings, go into effect July 20.
There are many ways to spot an ANTI-CHRIST. One SURE FIRE way
is to notice their strong desire to thwart the work of God. In every age the
godless try with their laws to hamper the work of God. This new law in Russia
is one new indication that many lawmakers in Russia want to put God in a box
and keep HIM silent. Don't they know that it is God that evangelizes or proselytizes
through his people?
"To share their faith, citizens must secure a
government permit through a registered religious organization, and they cannot
evangelize anywhere besides churches and other religious sites. The
restrictions even apply to activity in private residences and online."
To begin with I do not just share my faith alone but the faith
of Christ. My faith comes from HIM, indwells with power from Him, and is ordain
or commissioned by HIM. It is all of
God. To attack my faith is to attack God Almighty who dwells within me. To make such a law is poor judgment
that pits feeble men against the Almighty who created all things. Who do you
think will win, puny politicians or puny law makers? God always wins.
I just can't believe the poor judgment coming from Russia. I
pity the people under crazy leadership. Here is what God says about proselytizing,
Mark 16:15 And he
said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature.
Luke 4:18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he
hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the
brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight
to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,”
1 Corinthians 9:16 “For though I preach the gospel, I have
nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I
preach not the gospel!”
Matthew 10:7 “And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of
heaven is at hand.”
I would like to conclude today by saying these fitting
words, "You can take your law of "no proselyting" and shove it
up your ass." And yes "ASS" is Biblical.
Numbers 22:22 KJV "he was riding upon his ass"
