Re: Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne arrested for holding church service, defying ‘safer-at-home’ order
501c3

Congregations willingly chose to become corporations that are governed by the state, they must do what their master tells them.

That's the reward for those that sell the Gospel.
 Quoting: 232

[link to christianobserver.net]


“O.K. Pastors, Evangelists, Missionaries, Deacons, Trustees, Elders… listen up! Let’s stop all the hocus-pocus, the illusions, the scams, the fairy-tales and the outright lies regarding what the 501(c)(3) incorporated church is and is not. For a change, let’s deal with facts. For those of you who don’t understand “facts,” in the legal arena,facts are used and are supported by documented evidence which would be admissible in a legitimate court of law. Facts are not hyperbole! [i.e. exaggeration]”

-Barbara Ketay, “The 501(c)(3) Incorporated Church: The Real Truth,” Biblical Law Center, retrieved July 23, 2012,

Ketay goes on to list facts about what a 501c3 church corporation is by lawful state definition:

The creator of a corporation is the State.

The State is the sole authority and sovereign head over the corporation.

The corporation is subject to the laws of the State which limits its powers.

The corporation has no constitutionally protected rights.

The corporation is an artificial person.

The corporation submits to a State Charter declaring it is a creature of the State.

The corporation is created for the benefit of the public.

The corporation is a State franchise.

The corporation is a privilege granted by the State.

Pastors, evangelists, missionaries, elders, deacons, watch this carefully because I need to make this abundantly clear. You have a 501c3 INCORPORATED status. That means your church is a corporation of the state. Here is the message that I, other preachers, and the IRS is trying to get you to understand about the contract you signed:

The creator of your church is the State.

The State is the sole authority and sovereign head over your church.

Your church is subject to the laws of the State which limits its powers.

Your church has no constitutionally protected rights.

Your church is an artificial person.

Your church submits to a State Charter declaring it is a creature of the State.

Your church is created for the benefit of the public.

Your church is a State franchise.

Your church is a privilege granted by the State.


Many of us have marveled at how church leaders want to be regulated and controlled by an agency of government that most Americans have prayed would just get out of their lives. Churches are in an amazingly unique position, but they don’t seem to know or appreciate the implications of what it would mean to be free of government control.”

-Steve Nestor, IRS Senior Officer, quoted by Peter Kershaw, In Caesar’s Grip, self-published, 2000; See also hisholychurch.net’s information pdf on IRS form 1023 [link to www.hisholychurch.net]

I don't think they even have a constitutional right to tell us to stay home, so I don't see how they can close a church permanently because they disobeyed being told to stay home.

Re: Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne arrested for holding church service, defying ‘safer-at-home’ order
Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne, leader of Revival International Ministries and The River at Tampa Bay Church in Tampa, Florida, was arrested Monday for what officials say was the violation of a "safer-at-home" order, which prohibits large worship services during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister said that when he saw images from a crowded Sunday service at the church posted online, he was furious.

“We received an anonymous tip that Dr. Rodney Howard-Browne refused a request to temporarily stop holding large gatherings at his church,” he said. “And instead, he was encouraging his large congregation to meet at his church.”

Hillsborough County issued a "safer-at-home" order effective March 27, 10 News reported. The order mandates non-essential businesses to abide by the CDC’s social distancing guidelines that requires individuals to be separated by six feet of space. If they are unable to do that they have to shut down.
Howard-Browne argued that that his church is an essential business, and that the order violates his First Amendment rights.

The pastor’s arrest order shows that he was charged with unlawful assembly and violation of public health emergency rules, which are both second-degree misdemeanors, punishable by up to 60 days in jail and a maximum fine of $500, the Orlando Weekly noted.

Come on. This idiot had TWO services on Sunday after being repeatedly warned against it. He “assured” his congregation that he had these machines that kept them completely safe. One service had between 400-500 people, another 300+.

The River Church in Tampa was packed to the gills with worshipers who clearly were looking for hope. Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne, who presides over the megachurch and has been reportedly defiant over social distancing, has claimed he'll cure coronavirus just the way he did with Zika.


The Pastor boasted his place was white-glove clean, saying, “We brought in 13 machines that basically kill every virus in the place, and uh, if somebody walks through the door it’s like, it kills everything on them. If they sneeze, it shoots it down at like 100 mph. It'll neutralize it in split seconds. We have the most sterile building in, I don’t know, all of America.”
