VIEWS
(Natural News) Christians who live in Knoxville, Tenn., are now “allowed” to go back to church as of May 1, but the city and county don’t want them to sing, take communion or use Bibles.
As part of its “Community Strategy for Phased Reopening,” Knox County and the City of Knoxville in eastern Tennessee had attempted to impose a lengthy list of restrictions on congregations under the guise of protecting against the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), but these restrictions have since been overturned at the state level.
Only “core worship,” as defined by Knoxville officials, was to be allowed as part of the reopening, which forbade all “non-essential” worship activities such as groups, classes, youth services, baptism, communion and Bible-reading.
“The physical taking of communion/sacrament should not be performed due to the serial breaking of physical distancing across a congregation,” the original guidance stated before having to be revised to state that such restrictions are now recommended as opposed to mandated.
Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee issued his own guidance for the reopening of churches throughout the state, which he said overrides the attempted Knoxville guidance. As a result, Knoxville churches now have the option to not follow them if they so choose.
Executive Order 30, as signed by Gov. Lee, states that local governments cannot issue their own rules about places of worship because Gov. Lee himself was planning to issue his own statewide guidelines.
Knoxville doesn’t want to return to “pre-pandemic normal”
While meeting in actual church buildings is no longer banned anywhere in Tennessee, Gov. Lee is still encouraging all of them to meet online for the time being, though they are free to make their own decision on the matter.
Meanwhile, Knoxville is forging on with its phased re-opening, which in the city and county document is clearly defined as not returning “to pre-pandemic normal.” Knoxville is requiring that each of its many phases last for a minimum of 28 days, which means it will be months, if ever, before the city and county ever sees anything remotely resembling freedom.
“A minimum of 28 days will be spent in each phase regardless of whether the benchmarks are met at an earlier timepoint,” the document explains.
“The phased reopening is not a return to pre-pandemic normal, and the phased plan presents a pathway for reopening that relies on the Five Core Actions we must all consistently take to reduce the spread of COVID-19. They include physical distancing, wearing cloth face coverings, handwashing, cleaning surfaces, and staying home if you are sick or instructed to isolate/quarantine.”
Gov. Lee’s guidance also recommends that church congregants wear face coverings, stay six feet apart, and instruct all worshippers 65 years and older to stay home and watch services online.
He also wants churches to only allow 50 percent of their normal congregations to return, which means the other half would have to watch services online at home or inside their cars out in church parking lots.
As one Tennessee Star commenter pointed out, the Tennessee state constitution clearly states that all men have “a natural and indefeasible right to worship Almighty God according to the dictates of their own conscience,” and that “no human authority can, in any case whatever, control or interfere with the rights of conscience,” meaning people can attend services and get as close to other people as they want, without face masks, government recommendations be damned.

In reply to Gerry Lydon's 'Spiritualised?' article in the January '99 issue of "The Alternative Source" (the student magazine of Maynooth College, Dublin), I would like to pass on the answers that The Bringer of Truth and Light (Christ) gave, two thousand years ago, to some of the extremely good questions Gerry has asked about spirituality.Firstly, if you believe that Good should conquer Evil you are not an atheist in the true definition of the word. You don't have to go to church at all to be religious, in fact, the true definition of the word religion is 'bonded obligation' and that obligation is to God (The Ruler of The Universe) and His Commandments, Laws, Statutes, Judgments, Economic Policy etc. contained in The Torah, which is the name given to the five books of Moses. The original scrolls of which, are contained in The Ark of The Covenant, which is buried at The Hill of Tara in Co. Meath* and copies can be found in The Old Testament of any Bible.
As none of today's churches follow, or teach people to keep The Torah, they are therefore, through their actions, not fulfilling their 'bonded obligation' to God and therefore can not possibly be religious or working for Him as they wrongfully claim to be (judge a tree by the fruit that it bears, Matt 12:33). In almost every book of The Bible, we are told that we MUST obey The Laws contained in The Torah, so why do the churches tell us that we don't have to do so? Christ Himself tells us to keep The Commandments and The Law (Matt. 5:17-19) and so do His disciples in their letters (1 John 2:3-4). So how can the churches claim to be working for God or Christ when they are not doing or teaching what God and Christ taught? How long would you employ somebody who doesn't do what you tell them? Certainly not for two thousand years!
Your observation about some church-goers who sit up the front of the church and yet cause harm and show little respect for people is also perfectly true, Christ himself even warns us, in The Gospel of Matthew, chapter 6, verse 5, not to be like the hypocrites are, who pray in the churches and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. These people you refer to are probably the same ones who try to tell us that it is by the Grace of Jesus Christ that we are saved (Eph. 2:7-9), trying to imply that we only have to believe that Jesus is the Son of God and, hallelujah! we are saved, without actually doing any of the things that Christ taught. This is a total mis-interpretation of what Paul was saying in that letter. Read properly, it says that it is by the Grace of God, not of any good works of man, that Jesus Christ came and forgave us our sins, up to that point in time, and demonstrated 'The Way' we have to be, so we can all live together in peace and harmony on Earth, as one people under God's Laws, bringing His Kingdom to Earth.
This confirms your idea that good is, and comes from God; because only a good person would send His oldest son to teach people who have been ignoring Him and everything He's been telling them for centuries, knowing full-well that those people, whom He is trying to help, would try to murder His son for telling the Truth (the Crucifixion). Fortunately, they only managed to kill the human body called Jesus, that the Spirit-Being called Christ was using and not Christ himself.
This brings us to the next point about good and bad. As you have said, there would be no point in having only good without bad in this world or there would be no point in creating it at all. God does indeed, as you say, organise our lives for us, but we have the final say ourselves whether we want to do things His Way (the good way) or our own or somebody elses way (the bad way), which fulfills our God given right to free-will.
All-day every-day, each of us walks around with two voices in our head, the G(o)od voice and the D/evil one. The good voice is our own personal telepathic hotline to God, Who is the source of all goodness. This is described in The Bible as the Holy Ghost or the Comforter (Luke 12:12, John 16:7-13) that leads us in the right direction in life and warns us of any dangers we might encounter along 'The Way'. The other voice, the evil one; is also a telepathic hotline, but this one comes from the source of all evil in the world, who is known as the Devil, meaning Liar, and Satan meaning Opposer in Hebrew. This voice tells us not to listen to God's (the good voice's) advice and that God and Satan don't exist and we should do things our own way (his really), which is of course nothing but lies, as he is the inventor of them (John 8:44).
So all of us on Earth, regardless of whether we believe in God, go to church or neither, have these two voices in our heads and under our God-given right to free-will, we can choose whether we want to listen to the G(o)od voice or the D/evil one. This is set up as a cosmic testing-system to see whether we want to listen to God and learn how to be good all of the time, to earn our pardon and be released from this prison-planet (lunatic-asylum), back into the Universe (heaven), where Christ quite clearly states that He came from in John 3:13 and 8:23. Or whether we want to continue listening to our D/evil voice right up to the Last Day and consequently be executed along with the Devil, who got us all sent to this prison-planet in the first place (Rev. 12:3,4 & 6-9).
I hope that I have answered some of your questions about Spirituality, Gerry Lydon, and I also hope that this article has made you and other 'seekers' for The Truth want to ask many more questions. There is a book available which explains all of this and more in much more detail called 'The Way home or face The Fire', it is not a religious book, in the modern sense of the word, it is The Truth. Available for £10 Sterling (U.K.) or $20 U.S. (rest of the world), incl. p. & p., from:-

THE
(10+2)
1. YOU shall love, honour, cherish and obey the Lord your God (love, good and truth) with ALL your heart, with ALL your mind, with ALL your soul and with ALL your strength and Him ONLY shall you serve and OBEY, forsaking ALL others.
2. YOU shall NOT create an image or likeness of ANYTHING that is IN HEAVEN, or on earth, or under the sea and YOU shall NOT worship or BUY such things. YOU shall NOT bow down to them or serve them for I the "I AM" your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate (or disobey) Me; and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love (and obey) Me, and KEEP My COMMANDMENTS.
3. Honour your Father in Heaven and KEEP His COMMANDMENTS; LAWS; Statutes; Judgements; Economic Policy; Agricultural Policy and Diet that He gave to YOU and your Mother, the British Nation Israel, His wife (metaphorically), at Mt. Sinai and make Him proud of YOU.
4. YOU shall NOT commit adultery, either physically, individually, or spiritually, nationally or individually but shall be FAITHFUL to God, your word and your spouse, also NOT committing adultery nationally by following the wrong examples of other nations.
5. YOU shall NOT use the Lord's name, unless you are speaking to Him, or about Him, then you will not waste His time or insult Him.
6. Love your neighbour (not physically) as much as, or more than, you love your "Self". Then you will not do wrong, or lie, to anyone - John 15 v 13.
Do NOT desire eagerly, or touch, anything that does not belong to you. It belongs to your neighbour, not you, and YOU must respect HIS property. Your neighbour is the person next to you and the person on the far side of the planet and everyone in between.
7. YOU shall NOT lie, even to your "Self".
8. Remember the Sabbath and KEEP it Holy. It is NOT wrong to do GOOD deeds on the Sabbath. The Sabbath was made for man. Man was not made for the Sabbath.
9. YOU shall NOT steal. Neither shall you make up your own laws to enable you to do so by deceiving people.
10. YOU shall NOT murder - kill illegally.
11. YOU shall love one another as much as I love you and in the same way - spiritually not physically - John 15 v 13. IF you DO this, ALL men will KNOW that you ARE my disciples and are exercising and learning "Self" discipline - Discipleship.
12. Judge no-one, so that you will not be judged, by God, for by whatever judgement you judge another, unjustly, you condemn yourself to the same punishment. Judging is God's job exclusively, as He is always unbiased, impartial, uncorruptible and just. He has given His judgements, in His Law Books given to you at Mt. Sinai, by which He judges those who break His Laws. There are NO other laws on this planet that are LEGAL. God has strictly FORBIDDEN man from making up laws (Deuteronomy 4:2). God's Laws are the same for everyone. God does NOT have separate Laws - one for the rich and another one for the poor.
