A Timely Collect

Anyone who does not know that the traditional Book of Common Prayer is inspired by God Himself needs to examine this week’s collect and then repent.  Yes, the Collect for the 5^th Sunday after Trinity is that timely right now:

Grant, O Lord, we beseech thee, that the course of this world may be so peaceably ordered by thy governance, that thy Church may joyfully serve thee in all godly quietness, thought Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

And the peace of the church is now endangered, not only in many areas of the world where the flames of persecution rage, but now in the United States as well.  Churches are under attack by woke totalitarians.  Taylor Marshall spells out well our current situation.  (Yes, there’s some popery in this video, of course.  He is nonetheless right on persecution.)

Don’t put in your head in the sand.  God’s holy church is a chief target of these woke totalitarians.  Totalitarians always target the church.  So pray and prepare.  This week the Book of Common Prayer gives us an excellent and timely prayer.
