As you will see from this link, a Pastor and wife in San Diego have been told they can’t use their home to hold a Bible study with friends! This is BIG news!
I need to know more details before fully weighing in on this, but it appears that San Diego County is gearing up to fight homeowners who want to hold Bible studies in their homes. The county is saying it’s a “religious assembly.” And they are insisting that the pastor pay for a “use permit” if he wants to continue holding the Bible study.
Of all the bizarre things people do in their homes, a Bible study would seem relatively harmless. But apparently not in San Diego County! Insanity! You think someone has an agenda in this case?
Oh dear... It is a whole new world we live in and the enemy is on the move. It will be interesting to see what God has in store for America in the future. I know he is looking for faithful followers who will not shrink back from the Truth of this Word, that's for sure... Thanks for posting this Bill!

Whatever happened to the 1st Amendment rights of freedom of assembly or the free exercise of religion?
Text
“ Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Not surprised, but Christians can stand on the front lines with prayer and fasting against this type of tyranny.

Apparently, the County has apologized and admitted it was all a mistake...
