[1] Christian Reformed Church in North America (CRCNA) Requiring Full COVID Vaccinations for Staff in Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA and Burlington, Ontario, Canada Offices

 

Kristen VanderBerg, CRC Communications wrote on 9 September 2021:

 

All Christian Reformed Church in North America staff who wish to work in either the Grand Rapids, Mich., or Burlington, Ont., offices will be required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

 

This requirement is part of two new policies, one for Canadian and one for U.S. employees, that outline expectations for returning to work in the denominational offices following 18 months of primarily remote work. Other expectations include wearing masks, limiting the size of meetings, and maintaining physical distancing when possible.

 

“Our goal is to provide a safe and healthy workplace for all staff and visitors to our building,” say both policies in their preambles. “Employers have a duty of care to ensure workplace safety of employees and visitors to the building. Vaccination against COVID-19 is the single most effective public health measure to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Its inclusion among the other public health measures (including physical distancing, capacity limits, and indoor mask use) is essential in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic.”

 

 

U.S. staff who wish not to be vaccinated may seek a medical or religious exemption. Proof of vaccination or completed exemption forms are required by October 15, or the staff member will be placed on unpaid leave.

 

Unvaccinated staff in Canada will be able to continue working remotely. Churches and classes in either country are not subject to the vaccine requirements.

 

Colin Watson, executive director of the CRCNA commented:

 

“We know that COVID vaccination is a widely discussed and debated topic, and we know that there are some who are opposed to it. For CRCNA staff, the decision came down to ensuring that we live into our values. We believe it is important to show love to our neighbors and to protect the vulnerable among us. Asking staff to be vaccinated if they are in our buildings or interacting with others is one way that we can do that.”

[2] THE MOSES STATEMENT – Let God’s People Worship

 

To the Prime Minister and State Premiers of Australia

 

PREAMBLE

 

As Christians, we write respectfully to you because God calls us to honour our rulers (1 Peter 2:17) who He has put in positions of authority over us (Romans 13:1). As with Christians in all generations, we want to be a great blessing to our country, as those who work diligently, submit to and honour authority, pay our taxes, love our neighbours, giving honour to all. God tells us to pray for you, and so we do. We ask Him to direct you so that we can lead a quiet peaceable life in all godliness and reverence, because this pleases God (1 Timothy 2:2-3).

 

We write to you at this time, because the current situation in Australia is making it increasingly difficult for Christians to obey the rules and regulations that the States are enacting. We do not want to be put in the position where we must choose between obeying God or our government (Acts 5:29).

 

At this time, one of our greatest concerns is the public worship of God.

 

We have a deep respect for lawful, civil authority (Exodus 20:12; Exodus 22:28, Matthew 22:15-22; 1 Peter 2:13-17), which arises out of our respect for the absolute authority, the only true and living God, who created everything and upholds it by His power. We respect and honour His authority above all, because He made each of us to bring glory and honour to Himself. As Christians, we confess that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, rules and reigns over all creation, and that every person and all institutions are subject to His authority. He is our Saviour and Lord, the only King and Head of the Church. He has given us rules to live by, which He summarised by saying:

 

“’You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself. ” (Luke 10:27)

 

God, in His wisdom, has set up authority structures on earth. In the 5th commandment (Exodus 20:12), God teaches us that we have a duty to respect and honour earthly authorities. The command specifically speaks about parents but extends into all structures of legitimate authority in society (Romans 13:1-7; 1 Peter 2:11-17; Titus 3:1-8). This includes family, business, church, and civil government.

 

God also puts limits on all human authority. God sets these limits because fallen humanity does not wholeheartedly love God or neighbour. If our parents command us to disobey God, we cannot obey them in this (Ephesians 6:1). If any authority commands anyone to do evil it is wrong to obey (Acts 5).

 

God, who has all authority and gives limited authority to people, calls all people to worship. Worshipping God is the most important activity and privilege of human existence (Genesis 2:1-3, Exodus 20:1-11, 1 Peter 2:4-10, Revelation 7:9-12). God calls everyone everywhere to worship (Psalm 96). If we are going to keep God’s command to “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength,” He calls us to physically gather together to worship and warns us not to stop (Psalm 100, Hebrews 10:25). If we are going to love our neighbour as ourselves, we must place great value on their ability to gather for worship, as this is our neighbour’s greatest privilege and duty.

 

While God calls everyone everywhere to worship, He gives Christ’s church a clear and direct command to gather to worship Him. The public worship of God is essential to the church’s life. Local churches obey this command by physically gathering together. The Biblical word for “church” (occurring 111 times in the New Testament) literally means “assembly” and requires a physical meeting. Therefore, virtual meeting is not a substitute.

 

God alone controls everything in the universe, including disease and death. In times of crisis, public worship is vitally important, as God either blesses or frustrates our efforts to combat sickness and disease. While precautions should be taken to ensure safety, and while God often uses medicine to counteract and prevent disease and death (Isaiah 38), He calls us to gather to humble ourselves and pray for mercy, because He ends plagues, stops diseases, and brings blessing when His people gather together to humble themselves, pray and seek His face (Joel 2:12-17). He also prolongs trouble when a people harden their hearts.

 

In a health crisis with no clear end in sight, the alarming increase in suicide, alcoholism, and depression, the pressing need to hold public worship should be even more evident (Psalm 73:16-17). God alone can heal our land and provides the greatest cure for all the troubles which overwhelm broken people (Psalm 61:1ff). Our country needs hope. People find true, lasting hope when they gather for worship and prayer, as they find forgiveness in Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

As God directly calls His Church to worship and promises to respond to His people when they gather together, no government on earth should tell the church it cannot gather to worship. The Bible tells us of a time when a government refused to let God’s people worship Him. When God’s people were in bondage in Egypt, God sent Moses to tell Pharaoh to let His people go so they could worship Him (Exodus 3:12).* Pharaoh answered, “Who is the Lord, that I should obey His voice?” God sent great plagues on Egypt because Pharaoh would not listen to His prophet Moses. All Moses asked of Pharaoh was for God’s people to go apart for worship. Pharaoh’s refusal led to the destruction of most of Egypt and the annihilation of its army.

 

In a similar way, we come, like Moses of old, with the same plea. Let God’s people worship Him. Let God’s people gather for worship. We must answer His call to worship. We plead that you would not be like Pharaoh and stand between God and His Church, especially during the present troubles.

 

 

* God’s word to Moses in Exodus 3:12 was to serve/worship on Sinai, and the repeated references following in the narrative to freedom to go and sacrifice and serve/worship, were all refused by Pharoah – who constantly wanted to limit or diminish the number – (i.e inside Egypt, close to the border (Exodus 8:25, 28; only the men, without children Ex.10:7-10, without livestock etc. Ex. 10:24-26 ). But Moses demanded the whole people go together (Exodus10:9) as a holy people, set aside and called out to God.

 

DECLARATION

 

As Christians, who seek, to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength:

 

We declare that there is no other head of the Church, but the Lord Jesus Christ, who reigns supreme as King over all authorities and rulers (Isaiah 9:6-7; Matthew 28:18; Colossians 1:15-18; Ephesians 1:20-23).

 

We declare that while we are called to submit to the government, we cannot obey the government if it requires us to disobey God (Acts 5:29; Romans 13:3-4; 1 Peter 2:13-17; Exodus 1:15-20; Mark 12:17).

 

We declare that the worship of God is the most important activity and privilege of human existence (Genesis 2:1-3, Exodus 20:1-11, 1 Peter 2:4-10, Revelation 7:9-12).

 

We declare that the public gathered worship of God is essential to the church (Ephesians 3:20-21; 1 Peter 2:4-10; Revelation 7:9-12).

 

We declare that loving the Lord our God means loving and valuing His worship (Exodus 25-31; Numbers 3:4; 1 Corinthians 11:27).

 

We declare that loving our neighbour involves the provision of care for their souls (Mark 8:36; Romans 10:1).

 

We declare that in times of crisis, we must, all the more urgently, call upon the name of God in public worship (Joel 1:14, Joel 2:12-13, Luke 13:4-5, Hebrews 12:7).

 

We declare that since the Lord has commanded us and given us the right to worship, it is wrong for any government or official to obstruct gatherings for public worship, especially at a time like this.

 

We respectfully and dutifully urge you to allow Christ’s church to gather together for public worship.

[1] A Meeting for Concerned Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) Teaching Elders and Ruling Elders

 

For all PCA TEs & REs:

 

By Jon Payne

 

The Meeting for Concerned PCA Ruling Elders and Teaching Elders is planned for September 25, 2021, from 9:00 a.m.—3:00 p.m., at Second Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Greenville, South Carolina.

 

The 48th PCA General Assembly was a very encouraging one, especially for those committed to an unapologetically Reformed, Confessional, and Presbyterian vision for our almost half-century-old denomination. Many who have been troubled by the growing progressive trends within our churches, presbyteries, and agencies left St. Louis with renewed hope for the future of the PCA. The voting margins were surprisingly large. Therefore, it’s with renewed hope, mixed with ongoing concern about the influence of progressive Christianity, that the Gospel Reformation Network will host a meeting for concerned PCA teaching and ruling elders in late September. The one-day gathering in Greenville will take place at the historic Second Presbyterian Church. It’s a meeting that you’ll not want to miss, if you are able to attend.

[2] The Ezekiel Declaration – Watchmen, It’s Time To Speak

 

To the Honourable Scott Morrison,

 

As Christian leaders, you should be aware that in accordance with scripture we regularly pray for “and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way” (1 Timothy 2:2).

 

We do write, however, to you regarding a matter of significant concern.  Namely, the proposed introduction of ‘vaccine passports’ into Australian society.  For many Christian leaders and Christians, this is an untenable proposal that would inflict terrible consequences on our nation.

 

We should initially note that we are not the first generation that has been confronted with the question of ‘vaccine passports.’  Writing in 1880, aware of the challenges that a smallpox epidemic brought to society, the Christian theologian Abraham Kuyper wrote, 

 

“Vaccination certificates will therefore have to go… The form of tyranny hidden in these vaccination certificates is just as real a threat to the nation’s spiritual resources as a smallpox epidemic itself.”

 

Kuyper, A. 2015. Our Program: A Christian Political Manifesto. (p. 249). Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press; Acton Institute for the Study of Religion and Liberty.

 

Between 1901 and 1905, Abraham Kuyper would hold the office of the Prime Minister of the Netherlands.  He evidently understood that a ‘vaccine passport’ would represent a measure that was equal to if not worse than an epidemic itself through the oppressive control over people’s lives.  As Christian ministers, we would also agree with Kuyper’s analysis on such a measure, and for several reasons.

 

First, the government risks creating an unethical two-tiered society.  While some individuals will receive the vaccination with thanks, others may have good and informed reasons for declining.  One such reason is highlighted in the statement of the health minister Greg Hunt:

 

“The world is engaged in the largest clinical trial, the largest global vaccination trial ever, and we will have enormous amounts of data.”

 

Australian Department of Health

 

Free citizens should have the right of consent, especially when the vaccine rollout has been labelled as a ‘clinical trial.’  Imposing a ‘vaccine passport’ when the nation is already divided on the matter risks the creation of medical apartheid.  The result being that those who decline the vaccine are ostracised and alienated from aspects of public life.  History has never reflected well for those who would promote segregation.  As there has been no discussion that the precautionary measures will be retracted once the pandemic has concluded, there is a real concern that many of these measures will remain permanent.  A ‘vaccine passport’ would therefore represent the dangerous precipice of a therapeutic totalitarianism that does not promote liberty and human flourishing, but would rather only dehumanise and control its citizens all under the cloak of personal health and safety.

 

Second,  a good portion of the population are already burdened to the point of despair.  Granted, we understand why our leaders felt compelled to lockdown in March 2020. The threat was unknown and our ability to withstand it, untested.  However, it is now 2021, and the adverse effects of perpetual lockdowns are now being revealed. We understand needing to respond, but we are concerned with heavy-handed approaches that exceed people’s capacity to live a normal life. We are compelled to speak out on behalf of struggling people, the needy, the destitute, those being harmed by such strong measures (Proverbs 31:8-9).

 

The adverse effects of lockdowns are especially highlighted in the rise of people considering suicide.  The ‘Journal of Psychiatric Research’ published a paper in July of 2021 based on research done on Melbourne’s extended 2020 lockdown, some of their findings are as follows,

 

“In September-2020, among 1157 Victorians, one-third reported anxiety or depressive disorder symptoms, one-fifth reported suicidal ideation, and one-tenth reported having seriously considered suicide in the prior thirty days. Young adults, unpaid caregivers, people with disabilities, and people with diagnosed psychiatric or sleep conditions showed increased prevalence of adverse mental health symptoms. Prevalence estimates of symptoms of burnout, anxiety, and depressive disorder were unchanged between April-2020 and September-2020. Persistently common experiences of adverse mental health symptoms despite low SARS-CoV-2 prevalence during prolonged lockdown highlight the urgent need for mental health support services.”

 

 Czeisler MÉ, Wiley JF, Facer-Childs ER, Robbins R, Weaver MD, Barger LK, Czeisler CA, Howard ME, Rajaratnam SMW. 2021. “Mental health, substance use, and suicidal ideation during a prolonged COVID-19-related lockdown in a region with low SARS-CoV-2 prevalence.” Journal of Psychiatric Research 140 (August): 533-544.

 

One in ten people considering suicide is a tragedy. As these lockdowns continue, it is evident that people are getting more desperate, with many people considering suicide as their means of escape. People are inherently social creatures, meant for human interaction and contact, not long-term isolation. But these policies are causing many people to feel lonely, and increasingly isolated.

 

In Japan, according to Japanese research, during their second lockdown “suicide rates increased by forty-nine percent among children and adolescents, and thirty-seven percent among women.” The reason this information from Japan is relevant is because it shows that their second lockdown was far worse than their first on people’s mental health. We have been in cascading lockdowns for about eighteen months now, this will be taking a toll.

 

This psychological effect is not theoretical.  Another recent ABC news report documented the effects of lockdowns on alcohol consumption.

 

“One in five Australians increased alcohol use during the lockdowns, “We know the statistics. We know that ninety-three per cent of hospital admissions at the weekend are alcohol-related. We know domestic violence is hugely related to alcohol consumption. We know it’s bad, and people are realising that.”

 

ABC News

 

By changing the goalposts from the original objective of ‘two weeks to flatten the curve’ to now requiring a proposed ‘vaccine passport’ in order to live a normal life, the government is putting immeasurable pressures on ordinary people. If the ABC is correct and twenty percent of Australians are drinking more during lockdowns, What will be the societal cost of adding a ‘vaccine passport’ which will potentially alienate already desperate Australians and turn them into second class citizens.

 

Jesus tells Christians to count the cost, “For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?” (Luke 14:28). Jesus is here using a secular principle to make a spiritual point, and whether you are making a spiritual or secular decision you must count the cost. There are many people in our communities, not just in our churches, who are facing the costs of these policies and growing increasingly concerned about them.

 

Much more can be said on this point, the effects on missed cancer diagnoses and other illnesses by people staying home from the doctors, the effects on children’s missed and inconsistent education, youth graduating into a closed economy finding it difficult to find work. Poverty is the leading cause of poor life outcomes, and these lockdowns are pushing people financially to the brink. The addition of a ‘vaccine passport’ into Australian society may be the nail in the coffin to many people who are already at the point of desperation.

 

Third, conscience should never be coerced.  The conscience is one of the innermost expressions that animates an individual, and that allows them to worship God as well as obey a legitimate governing authority.  The conscience is the immediate contact of God’s presence in a person’s soul, and so an individual forced to act in a way that is objectionable to their conscience will never be at peace, either before God or before the state.  A government that endeavours to force or coerce an individual who is striving to honour God, will find that they only encounter resistance.  Regarding the need for a free conscience, Kuyper writes,

 

“Conscience is therefore the shield of the human person, the root of all civil liberties, the source of a nation’s happiness.”

 

Kuyper, A. 2015. Our Program: A Christian Political Manifesto. (p. 73). Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press; Acton Institute for the Study of Religion and Liberty.

 

A government should never coerce conscience, but rather respect the important function that it carries in aiding a person to worship God freely and live obediently before the state. As we have noted, Jesus commands Christians to count the cost, and many believers do not feel that we have all the information necessary to make a decision on this vaccine at this point in time. We respect that many people have made this calculation and decided it is best for them to get the vaccine that is their right, and we do not seek to abrogate it. But those who are not ready, or hesitant, are so for very valid reasons. Their conscience binds them to wait, and their Saviour advised them to not make decisions before they have counted the cost. This is a principle of wisdom, that everyone applies to many aspects of their lives. We would therefore ask that the Government not coerce the conscience of many Australians through the use of a ‘vaccine passport.’

 

Fourth, making vaccination the basis of participating in normal life would make no logical sense in terms of protecting others. A “CDC study shows seventy-four percent of people infected in Massachusetts Covid outbreak were fully vaccinated,” especially noting that four of those who were vaccinated were admitted to hospital. As we have said, we respect people’s right and choice to be vaccinated. But this type of data, published by America’s leading body of disease experts, causes people to wonder about the effectiveness of the vaccine along with concern about coercive measures by which to have it administered.  As it is evident that vaccines do not prevent infection, to restrict a person’s access to society based on a medical choice is questionable.

 

Fifth, we as Christian leaders find it untenable that we would be expected to refuse entry into our churches to a subgroup of society based on their medical choice.  Only our precious Saviour, Jesus Christ, has the authority to regulate the terms of corporate worship.  These terms tell us that we are to make no distinction between those who call out in faith, neither on race nor medical choice.  We are also under obligation to proclaim the gospel to all men.  Our strongest conviction is that this gospel message is the greatest news ever to be pronounced, and includes nothing less than God’s free gift of saving grace, and the offer of eternal life to all who would respond in repentance and faith. To refuse people access to this message would betray our Saviour and everything he calls us to uphold. We can not imagine a situation in which we would refuse someone whom Christ has welcomed (Romans 14:1-4).

 

May you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,

[1] Historian William J. 'Bill' Federer: Socialist Policies, Cultural Upheaval Part of Communist Plan

 

NEWS PROVIDED BY

Truth & Liberty Coalition

July 21, 2021

 

WOODLAND PARK, Colo., July 21, 2021 /Christian Newswire/ -- According to historian William J. "Bill" Federer and author of Socialism: The Real History from Plato to the Present, the recent wave of government overreach directed by an elite ruling class is part of a carefully crafted plan, years in the making.

 

Federer joined the Truth & Liberty Coalition livecast with Andrew Wommack, president of Truth & Liberty, and Richard Harris, executive director, recently to discuss several issues, including the roots of modern tyranny.

 

"One of the things that you see in history is people will trade freedom for security," said Federer. "And when they're in fear they will give up their independence to somebody promising to fix it."

 

Federer's historical research revealed that ruling elites take power by getting people to yield their God-given rights in a crisis. Often, those crises are sometimes orchestrated by the very people who want to take control of a nation.

 

"You start off with a status quo, you create a problem that's really bad, and everybody's happy to settle for your answer that's half as bad, and then that becomes the new starting point," said Federer. "After each crisis, the people give up a little more of their freedom and independence."

 

In 2020, Americans were asked to stay at home, shutter businesses, and close churches, all to 'slow the spread' of the COVID-19 coronavirus. Citizens gave up their liberties, only to see a disputed election and repressive measures against Christian conservatives.

 

"Is this what's happening in America?" asked Wommack. "Is it intentional or is it just organic?"

 

"It's intentional," answered Federer. He explained that Communists developed tactics in the 1950s to take over America which are now being played out on the public stage. "Infiltrate the media, infiltrate the churches [and] replace revealed religion with the social justice gospel, infiltrate both political parties, infiltrate the teachers' unions, destroy the institution of marriage, destroy the institution of family, [and] destroy respect for the Constitution."

 

According to Harris, "Americans are becoming increasingly aware of the sobering reality that our nation is suffering from a very large-scale, well-funded and highly orchestrated attack to subvert the culture and government. We must all face the threat and do all that is in our power to save our nation."

[2] Race, Church, and Society by Frank J. Smith, Ph.D., D.D.

 

“. . . a theological, historical, social, legal, and political tour-de-force which very few would undertake without great trepidation, especially in the BLM age.”

 

Prof. Kevin Clauson, Professor of Government and Politics, Bryan College, Dayton, Tennessee

 

“Dr. Frank Smith, writing out of a wealth of personal experiences ministering the gospel of King Jesus among the races as well as a deep Biblical and historical understanding of race, has provided a relatively brief, suitably accessible, and often challenging work. Reading Race, Church, and Society, you will learn much and be stretched personally. This book will serve very well as a text for Bible classes, youth groups, high schools, colleges, and seminaries.”

 

Prof. Thomas Reid, Retired Librarian and Registrar, Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary

 

“In this book, Dr. Frank Smith presents a no-holds-barred, especially candid discussion.”

 

Dr. Greg Burgreen, Associate Research Professor of Engineering, Mississippi State University

 

“He addresses these controversial topics with as much irenic tone as insightful balance. . . . Frank leads the reader through the landmines of explosive conflict by a successful path, though it may be surprising to some.”

 

Pastor Brian Coombs, Messiah’s Church (RPCNA), Clay, New York

 

“As a black Presbyterian I am thankful for books like this! Challenging and at times uncomfortable.”

 

Tre Cranford, Student Supply, Louisville (Ky.) Reformed Presbyterian Fellowship
