See what happened to this Ohio pastor who followed the teachings of Christ

Per AlterNet.org:

“Outrage spread Friday after the story about a pastor in Ohio who was arrested and charged for opening his church to homeless people when extreme cold weather struck his town gained national attention.

Chris Avell, the pastor of an evangelical church called Dad's Place in Bryan, Ohio, pleaded not guilty last Thursday to charges that he broke 18 restrictions in zoning code when he gave shelter to people who might otherwise have frozen to death.”

Far right fake Christians seem to have a problem with this. They seem to never ask themselves WWJD?

Arrested for helping people stay alive? That's...no...why would that ever happen? Would the city...or whoever is in charge of this...have preferred those poor people froze so the law could be perfectly upheld?

@TexasDude Yes it seems unbelievable. Why wasn’t the city more engaged in preparing for the winter for the homeless if they didn’t want [b]real Christians [/b]doing what Christ commanded?

@KunsanVeteran Who can tell what goes on in some minds and hearts?

@TexasDude Certainly not what Christ expects of Christians.
