Picket of Bell Road Baptist Church/Pastor Rob Patterson

Bell Road Baptist Church was picketed on Easter Sunday 2007 after Pastor Rob Patterson refused to defend Christ's name from attack in the newspaper. He instead chose to vehemently attack Church of the Divide calling them "an infestation of mosquitoes", "wolves", "false prophets", "self-righteous" and "a plague." All because Church of the Divide questioned why the pastors were not defending Christianity in the Auburn Journal newspaper.

How is everything going, Luke? I haven't seen or heard anything about you guys lately...

Yikes, don't forget where the focus of your church should be: Jesus, and glorifying the awesome God we serve. People aren't perfect, that goes for both sides.

of which are condoned and encouraged in the bible.

for video taping people and placing the videos on the internet without the permission of the people taped, Which is against the law. If the church of the Divide wants people to take them seriously, then they need to stop with the slander of other religions and prove themselves as a group. Anyway, you guys say to follow the bible to the strictest sense? So you have stoned people to death? You have raped woman? You have offered Human Sacrafice? You have eaten the flesh of your own children? All

The church of the divide is nothing but a small group of wanna be terrorists. I have seen them first hand start fight with people and even seen a few of there members attack a person for being a homosexual. I also have a small camera and microphone detector that I have used and found microphones hidden in areas of the American River College Campus in Sacramento in places they shouldn't be, such as the meeting rooms of the muslim student union, GBLTQ, and Pagan Student Union. They also are known

Well said.

[smeejay]

church of division, indeed!!!!

[odinindahouse]

you are way off. jesus does NOT want you to confront. remember, when jesus was arrested one day before his death, he stoped peter, who choped a roman soldiers ear off. jesus heald the man. gospels tell us to bring peace in our preaching work. the deeds are what qualifies us for god kingdom, not to correct ridiculers.

Amen we are early churchers as well. We have a home fellowship of believers too.
