Reformation Lutheran Church pastor sends fellow minister to jail

Ordained minister Henry "Bud" Shaver was arrested with another man after reading from Isaiah 1 during a church service at Reformation Lutheran Church in Wichita, where late-term abortionist George R. Tiller is a member.

During the communion service Rev. Shaver stood at a microphone and read a portion of Isaiah's warning to believers from a scrap of paper. Members of the church tried unsuccessfully to shut off the microphone and grab the Scripture from his hand. Men then forcibly carried Rev. Shaver from the church.

Pastor Thomas Halstrom gave Rev. Shaver's associate, Joey Cox the communion bread saying, "Receive the body of Christ." Cox gave the bread back to Halstrom saying that this was not the body of Christ but it represented the bodies of babies killed by abortionist George Tiller.

Cox was removed from the church by four men who repeatedly tried to cover his mouth with their hands even though Cox was not resisting and was trying to voluntarily leave the building.

Rev. Shaver and Cox left the church area and were later stopped at a gas station where they were surrounded by police and arrested at the personal request of Halstrom, whose church is a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Churches In America (ELCA) synod.

The two Christians spent seven hours in jail (See Ticket) on the charge of "rude and indecent behavior in a place of worship."

"It's a sad thing when a church considers the reading of God's Word 'rude and indecent behavior,' while embracing abortionist George Tiller, someone who violates that word every day by shedding the innocent blood of babies created in the image of the God they profess to serve. By doing so, they dishonor the name of Christ," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. "Rev. Shaver's bold proclamation is to be applauded."

We are truly in the "last days" when good people are treated this way and worse thrown into jail while murders, child molesters, rapist etc are given better respect and often little jail time.

Isaiah 1:15
" When you spread out your hands,
      I will hide My eyes from you;
      Even though you make many prayers,
      I will not hear.
      Your hands are full of blood."
