If I have all of my electronics seized, try not to be shocked when every piece of footage and evidence hits the internet immediately anyway. When an investigation is truly decentralized, there is no nucleus that can be captured.




Here's my friendly encouragement: don't follow what @Brian_Sauve says here. Stop praying curses on people (or, better yet, don't start.) We're not in the old covenant. New covenant voices do not urge us to curse our enemies; they actually say the opposite. Here's a sampling: JESUS: “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust" (Matthew 5:43–45). PAUL: "Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them" (Romans 12:14). PETER: "Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Peter 3:9). While I respect believers who come to different conclusions, I do not think that we should curse rulers in worship services, nor in our private devotions. There is a higher way--the way of Christ. It is the way of the gospel. Yes, there are solid Christians (past and present) on all sides of this issue. Further, it's right to ask God to deliver us from evil (Matthew 6:13). We do not pray for unbelievers to flourish in their unbelief and evil--not at all. We ask God to stop them, bring them to justice, and deliver us from their sin. Where they call us to disobey God or stop us from obeying God as Scripture ordains, further, we do no such thing. However, while the imprecatory Psalms are righteous and good, they were for their old covenant context. Jesus and his apostles teach us to bless, pray for, and love our enemies. We cannot lose sight of this. We are not old covenant Israel. We are not under the Davidic theocracy. We are not picking up the sword to attack unbelievers across the street as our enemies. Much as you are told otherwise today, the kingdom of Christ is not of this world, and it does not advance by cursing (John 18:36). The kingdom of Christ advances by the gospel.
