(snip) In a police report filed by an officer with ties to Oklahomans for Equality in Bartlesville, the couple felt threatened and harassed by Penkoski's social media posts (snip) In February, Washington County District Court Judge Linda Thomas granted the couple a five-year protective order against Penkoski after they claimed they felt unsafe in Bartlesville because of the pastor

Do any of you think if he were a mullah that he would've been jailed for quoting similar verses in the koran?

It's like throwing holy water on a vampire. They can't stand it! All the more reason to do it.

Ha. My home town. This is probably the most exciting thing that's happened in Bartlesville, OK, in the last 30 years.

What ever happened to "If you don't like it don't listen"?
Sounds like a couple of communists whining and winning.

A Christian baker can be jailed for refusing to endorse homosexuality. Have you tired forcing a Muslim butcher to sell pork?

That this is even a court case shows how far toward communism this country has moved. This is a first amendment issue and should have been tossed out and the first amendment explained to the LBTQWXYZ idiots on the spot.

He should have waved a Quran in his hand while quoting Biblical scripture. That would thoroughly confuse the enemy.

So....free speech is now illegal? There needs to be multi-million dollar civil rights lawsuits against the individual officers who make the arrests for false arrest. Gotta go directly to the root of the problem.

Just before Jesus was arrested, tried and executed, Jesus told his disciples in John 15:25; But this happened that the word might be fulfilled which is written in their law, ‘They hated Me without a cause.’
The Left is not serving God and therefore, not bound by truth. They have an agenda, to take and take until there is nothing left of America. Christians and Christianity stands in their way, so what they do is not guided by what is right or true, it's guided by their agenda... only.
Jesus also said in John 15:18 &19, talking to His disciples; "If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first. If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world."
If you stand for truth, you will be hated by the world, by those who don't believe in absolutes like truth and are not guided by truth. Remember, Jesus referred to himself as 'the light, the way and the truth'. Truth is not a philosophy or belief system, truth is a person, the Son of God. If you don't know Jesus, you don't know the truth. If you happen to be hated by the world because you embrace what Christianity teaches, you are receiving the world's hatred without Christianity's benefits. You must know Jesus to know the truth. The world is agenda driven, Christianity is truth driven, and they are truly, worlds apart. Jesus saves and saves forever.
