I am a U.S. citizen and I am proud of the fact that God placed me in a free country. I am a MULTI gun owner and a Ordained Pastor! We have the constitutional right to own fire arms and should be able to carry them concealed or open as long as we are law biding citizens! God Bless the U.S.A.:lol:

I didn't know Georgia had a law like that! We are only a few miles from Ga. I worry all the time about being a Pastor and buying new guns the next thing you know your called a cult leader. I went out a few weeks ago and bought 4 or 5 guns (my son's and my wife there first guns 22lr and because of the fact I am a Pastor I was kind of worred but so far no F.B.I (lol) I think there will come a time when our rights will be taken away. I have Ga residents that are members and they come to Church with guns in there pockets. It's funny some think thats Taboo but I don't judge. You can't hide it from God and I am sure in the first Church days they were sword packing members we know Peter (one of the first Christian preachers) carried because he used it when they came for Jesus. Anyway I am blessed in all ways. God Bless

I like Luke 22:36 as well:

Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

On a side note, people try and use the 6th Commandment against soldiers and people who use guns defend themselves. And they often misquote it by saying Thou Shalt Not Kill! But the actual scripture is, Thou shalt not MURDER. Big difference in definitions of kill and murder.

Welcome to our fair state, and this great board.
Bet OC'ing on the pulpit really gets the collections plate filled.

Speech, Religion, and Guns. You got the top two covered big time.
Now if you can just organize the choir into a malitia you'll have the top 2
maxed out.

Now, Pastor, you aren't carrying around a concealed weapon in a hollowed-out Bible, now, are you? ;)

Lol no brother I would not desecrate God's Holy word. I am a open carry person when I travel and conceal only when the law requires. I still abide by the laws of my country (like the bible says) but I feel I have the right to protect my family. I have never killed anything (that includes animals) and hope I never do but I have children and a wife so I protect them with all my tools as head of my house and household. God Bless
