I too look for the signs of the times with excitement and anticipation 😁 . As far as I'm aware , no one in the UK has been arrested for praying in their own homes , I asked someone else who said a similar thing , what would the charge be ? 🤷 . Seriously ? U don't really believe that that is true do u ?

So far three people have been arrested. Adam Smith-Connor and Isabel Vaughn-Spruce was arrested twice. A Catholic priest was also arrested but acquitted. They were not in their homes, they were praying silently, no signs, no protests, no disruption of anyone else. However, they were near an abortion clinic, not trespassing, not blocking the way, but suspected of praying silently.

What was the charge ? What was he aquited of ?

I looked it up , he wasn't arrested for praying because it's not illegal to do so 🥴 , he was arrested for refusing to obey the law , the which states that no protests or demonstrations , either in favour of or against abortion are allowed within a certain area surrounding an abortion clinic , offers tried for over one and a half hours to persuade him to leave the are but he refused . He left the officers no choice other than to arrest him because he refused to obey the laws of the land and leave the area when asked to do so . All Christians r told by Christ to obey the laws of whichever land they live in , wether we agree with those laws or not . Imagine what a hideous time all those first converts to Christianity would have had living under Roman laws . It's the same now as it was then , very imperfect humans ruling in a very imperfect world , but not forever ❤️ .

Yes, and Daniel was arrested for violating the law as well. What is your point? Was he charged with disorderly conduct, endangering others? No, he was charged with violating the law to not pray in a safe buffer zone near an abortion clinic. Shadrac, Meshac, and Abednego were also arrested and thrown into the furnace for violating the law.

It wasn't about praying

The law is , that there can b no protests or demonstrations , either for or against abortion , in that area , he was asked to leave the area and he refused , he broke the law , if he was praying silently the officers wouldn't know that he was would they ? Praying in and of itself isn't illegal but refusing to leave the area when asked to do so is . Simple as that . My point is that all Christians r supposed to obey the laws of whatever land we live in , if we don't we will suffer the same consequences that everyone else would suffer if they were breaking the law . It's quite simple 🤷 wether u or I agree with it or not is irrelevant .

I know what your point was and I disagree. The Bible does not say that we are to obey the law without any regard to our conscience. Peter said "Should we listen to you or to God".

Many have taken the word of God and twisted it and taught falsehood. The Bible does not tell us to submit ourselves to Hitler if he tells us to violate our conscience. The Bible says "Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation."

This doesn't say let the citizens be subject to the police, or let the citizens be subject to the elected officials. It says "let every soul". That includes police, mayors, governors, Presidents, etc. Jesus Christ is the highest power. First and foremost we are to be subject to Jesus Christ. That is what Peter told the Sanhedrin, they were not the highest power, they have no authority to short circuit God's authority. Abortion is a violation of the Bible, therefore anyone making these laws is resisting the power, they are resisting the ordinances of God and they shall receive to themselves damnation.

No one was going to tell Daniel he could not pray to God and that is the attitude every Christian should have.

This seems to b one of those circular conversations that just keeps going around and around , not my cup of t . I've said all I feel the need to say on this subject and I'm not sure what your point is but it doesn't matter to me . U know what u r talking about and I know what I am talking about , we seem to b at crossed purposes . I'm happy to end my side of the conversation here with no hard feelings towards u , I hope u r able to do the same . I don't feel the need to defend the country that I live in , it's only my temporary home and my heart is elsewhere as I'm sure yours is too .
 
This is just how insanely bad it’s gotten in Britain. The police show up at this family’s house, insist on seeing their daughter’s phone, ENTER the house without permission, threaten to ARREST her daughter, all because she simply viewed a social media post!!!

Doesn’t say how they knew she viewed it. But there needs to be drastic action taken by the British citizens to stop this true fascism.

You do not know what fascism is. Britain is the opposite of fascist. Fascism is the concept that a nation is superior to any other nation. It was a word coined by Mussolini, who started a political movement with that name. It has nothing to do with race or religion. Mussolini was yet another would be dictator who wanted to restore his nation to its former glory.

Britain has lost its identity entirely. It is a de facto Muslim state. Britain betrayed Israel in 1948 and even before, and it has been downhill ever since. The British are prisoners on their own land.

This incident is one of many where the police have overstepped their authority. They've charged a number of Christians for supposed offences, only for the courts to throw out the charges. The believers have spent a night in prison anyway.

Added to that, the police refused to investigate Muslim crime gangs that were committing great evils. They did not want to be accused of racism. So allow British citizens, born and raised there, to be victims while turning a blind eye to Pakistani migrants.

Muslims do not immigrate to take part. They come to take over. The UK and much of Europe prove that daily. And that is the result of nations turning away from God. Now the nations are supporting terrorists to form a state of their own. So they show that terrorism gets results. Those nations will reap what they sow.

It was Ocean's 9, the sequel to Ocean's 8. :eek:

I'm not going woke Eli, and I don't neccesarily think this is a woke thing, the thieves seemed pretty intelligent though not trying to encourage it. Gave a thumbs up though cause this story be wild, oh my goodness what ya'll doing over in Europe this time? This is just sensational, what a performance, I dare say the whole case from the heist to the investigation and now the arrests itself is a work of art.

lol Yeah i'm joking around myself when i mention Ocean's movie series but yes it does take a LOT of skill to go through the security there ... which i'm not sure what that is but i assume it's pretty impressive.

But realistically speaking, i have a friend at work who does security penetration testing in terms of physical IT security.
What this means is that there are two components to software. It is software itself and it's the hardware where the software resides in the form of a server, in a building, guarded by walls and armed guards.
So what she does, being female too, plays on the human component of vanity to get access to places in the building where she shouldn't be, but also she is very skilled too in the technological aspect and has a card-copying device which can produce the RFID of a card of another employee which she can copy either nearby or by touching the card with her blank card.

The way these engagements work is that the CEO of the company itself hires a company who does pen-testing and the CEO doesn't tell anyone in the company about this engagement. Because if he does, what's the point? He wants to know how his company's security is.

So in one of her engagements, she actually got maced in the face by security while she was screaming at them that she has a letter from the CEO ... when they found her in the server room which was behind many layers of security.

Moral of the story?
The human component is the weakest link. Always. The software does it job and the walls do their jobs. But when a new, inexperienced guard is fazed by a female in a dress to relax his security, that's all a real-life thief needs to get an advantage.

And yes, she makes a lot of money on each contract with a company but she is what's called a 'white hat' who helps companies improve their security.

Heh I might've been in a few places I shouldn't have been in before..

Another high-profile case along these lines which involve social engineering is the case of a couple who gained access to a White House dinner without being invited.
