The FBI is responding to the scene of a reported shooting in Sutherland Springs, Texas, according to Michelle Lee, spokeswoman for the FBI's San Antonio field office.

Local police also have responded to the scene, which occurred at the First Baptist Church, a witness told CNN. The witness, a cashier at a gas station across the street from the church, said she heard about 20 shots being fired in quick succession while a church service was underway.

Sutherland Springs is about 30 miles east of San Antonio. Developing story.

Pardon every transgression which they have committed, whether by word or deed or thought. For Thou art a good God and lovest mankind; because there is no man who lives yet does not sin, for Thou only art without sin, Thy righteousness is to all eternity, and Thy word is truth.

For Thou are the Resurrection, the Life, and the Repose of Thy servants who have fallen asleep, O Christ our God, and unto Thee we ascribe glory, together with Thy Father, who is from everlasting, and Thine all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever unto ages of ages. Amen.

There were usually 50 regulars. 27 were killed and about 30 were wounded. That means probably everyone in that church was hit by a bullet at least once. If you watch the previous sermons, there's a bunch of kids running around and everything.

When I was a boy, this did happen. A beloved aunt was killed by a church shooter who shot up the church because the congregation would not testify on his behalf in court.

It is surreal and painful. I can only pray for these people, the victims and their families and the congregation. I cannot focus on "false flags" or whatever the narrative is right now. I can only focus on the victims.

Federal authorities have been warning state and local officials since early 2016 that leftist extremists known as “antifa” had become increasingly confrontational and dangerous, so much so that the Department of Homeland Security formally classified their activities as “domestic terrorist violence,” according to interviews and confidential law enforcement documents obtained by POLITICO.''

The trouble is that it's tough to prosecute. I mean, ok, let's say I go out and throw a firebomb into a Pride Parade. I wouldn't do that, but let's go hypothetical.

The first thing they're going to do is check my Facebook and Twitter and whatever social media I'm on and try to find out what "group" I belong to. ISIS? Antifa? Kekistan? /pol/?

Now, let's say I happen to follow Antifa on Twitter because I want to watch them, to know when and where they're meeting, to keep track of them in my area. Am I Antifa? No. Let's say I happen to go to a Baptist church a couple times because my friend is Baptist and I go to church with him sometimes. Does that make me a Baptist terrorist? No.

These things have to be investigated. We can't jump on every link instantly as "proof".

“But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one." (Luke 22:36)

"Do I not hate those who hate you, O Lord?

And do I not loathe those who rise up against you?

I hate them with complete hatred;

I count them my enemies.(Ps. 139:21-22)"

"The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there. And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. And he told those who sold the pigeons, “Take these things away; do not make my Father’s house a house of trade.” 17 His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for your house will consume me.”

"Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘I have noted what Amalek did to Israel in opposing them on the way when they came up out of Egypt. Now go and strike Amalek and devote to destruction all that they have. Do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.’ ” (1 Sam. 15:2-3)

If you ifaint in the day of adversity,

Rescue those who are being taken away to death;

If you say, “Behold, we did not know this,”

does not he who weighs the heart perceive it?

Does not he who keeps watch over your soul know it,

and will he not repay man according to his work? " (Prov 24:10-12)

"Like a muddied spring or a polluted fountain is a righteous man who gives way before the wicked." (Prov. 25:26)

"God has taken his place in the divine council;

in the midst of the gods he holds judgment:

'How long will you judge unjustly

and show partiality to the wicked? Selah

Give justice to the weak and the fatherless;

maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.

Rescue the weak and the needy;

deliver them from the hand of the wicked.'” (Psalm 82:1-4)

I could never have imagined that a small town with guns would have one lone Antifa psychopath wipe out an entire church during a Sunday sermon. Concealed carry needs to be mandatory in all churches. These people probably had hunting rifles but didn’t come to church with a glock because it would be inappropriate. Concealed carry exists for THIS REASON.

>Police said Monday morning that the shooting followed a "domestic situation" and that at least one of his relatives attended the church he targeted.

Also

And

>Kelley was already dead when they found him inside his vehicle having shot himself dead. Police revealed during a press conference on Monday that the gunman called his father to let him know he had been shot and he didn't think he was going to make it.

Principalities refers to the state, and powers to their masters the demons. I assure you, there is great historical precedent for using weapons against principalities.

Pretty impressive how little you think of the men who risked their lives to save christians that you're declaring them murderers with zero evidence. Don't know that i'd expect better from a cowardly pacifist "christian" though

Concealed carry is much easier and more tasteful than open carry in this situation, especially open carry of long arms. I say this as a man who open carries a handgun at work every day.

>Name one occasion Christ took up a sword to "Rescue those who are being taken away to death"

Christ is the personification of Wisdom. Anything from Proverbs is from Him. See also the numerous times in the OT that "the Angel of Lord" has helped the defenseless Israelites.

>Name one occasion Paul took up a sword to "Rescue the weak and the needy"

Irrelevant, Paul does not contradict Scripture.

>Name one occasion Peter took up a sword to "Give justice to the weak and the fatherless"

In the garden of Gethsemane, protecting Jesus. The problem was not Peter's willingness to protect his Master, but that Jesus was meant to die the next day.

>Name one occasion John took up a sword to "maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute"

Irrelevant, John does not contradict the rest of Scripture.

>That flag

What a shame! You'd expect better arguments from a Calvinist. Notice that he did not deal with any of the Scripture I have already quoted and only uses esigetical talking points to wave away what Scripture is clear.

>how would hiding your gun make a church safer?

Many states do not allow open carry, so concealed carry is the only means to bring a gun into church, which is what we want. The simple existence of a gun user in a church makes it safer, not that he has concealed carry.

>Surely the right answer is to have the usher visibly shouldering an AR-15 or some-such?

I would have every household own at least a rifle or shotgun (like Kennesaw in my state), and I would allow and encourage open carry. But again must states (not Georgia in some places) do not allow open carry.

You guys are so determined to be the LARPers you're not meant to be, it's shocking.

You were NOT put on this earth to be "gun-toting warriors for Christ". I find it so troubling you cannot comprehend how worldly that attitude is.

I don't have time right now to line-by-line your sperging – maybe later – but I'll summarise what I was attempting to say for those with the comprehension issues: Christ – the one person we are meant, in all things, to live our lives in imitation of; the one person Paul, Peter and John, indeed all the apostles, lived their post-resurrection lives imitating – never behaved as you lot are: rattling swords for a war on fedoras, wanting revenge, quoting verses about Amalek, Christ in the temple (with the mistaken intent most larpers erroneously take it to mean*), actually advocating fighting as in taking up arms, suggesting that anyone who failed to was hellbound …

* Not a single person was killed in the temple. Christ made a lot of noise, commotion and frightened animals and traders alike so that they would run, which is exactly what they did. Of the fedoras of His day, no one needed to die, and no one did.

What a fucking mess you people are, pretending you're Christians while living as ancient Jews, completely forgetting that Christ advocated loving enemies more often than He did slaying them, still thinking Christ's kingdom is a "kingdom of this world", as though your lives are meant to be lived in violent extermination of evil. THAT is why I quoted Ephesians 6 at you, to shame you into realising the futility of taking-up arms against evil as though somehow that will "defeat it".

You want to carry a gun for defence, be happy and carry one. Open carry, conceal it, or wrap it in a bow and put glitter on it – I do not care. THAT is not the issue. The issue is that Christ never spoke like you lot are.

>Pretty impressive how little you think … blah blah blah

What are you even on about?! Declaring WHO murderers?! You, sir, are an idiot who has been SO BADLY butthurt by my rejection of /pol/-larper tier shit on muh /christian/ you have comprehensively misunderstood my point, it seems. I'd actually be pretty impressed they managed to hit him from vehicles moving at 95 mph. But it was more the whole "Texas" feel of a high-speed ballistic-exchanging pursuit that made me smile. It wasn't a judgement. And you would know that from this post >>551318 if you'd bothered to read it.

But, no, feel free to jump down my throat based on what YOU think I was saying.

>cowardly pacifist "christian" though

I have no clue where you get that idea from, but I suspect it's those things you imagine I said, again.

And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?
