A pastor's arrest for holding worship. Al Mohler's Daily Briefing breaks it down well.
A short letter to R.R. Reno, of First Things:
Dear Editor,
You're wrong in your fundraising letter.
We are not giving way to undue fear or panic if there is a true emergency.
See Al Mohler's Daily Briefing of March 31, today, on the Florida pastor's arrest for a right understanding.
I'm a former subscriber, a pastor, and respect your work generally.
You need to make an exception for a genuine emergency. God is the only absolute, not our religious liberty or keeping churches open.
I agree the fallout for civic, public life could be bad. But it's horrendous to say we shouldn't try so hard to save earthly life, assuming that shows a want of priority on eternal things.
