Sounds more applicable to the Self-Sufficiency and Preparedness forum, which discusses the end of the world, and hiding from everyone else: https://www.city-data.com/forum/self...-preparedness/

Jesus never talked about living in fear, and/or separating from the many. His life was all about being with people (all kinds of people).

During all of the years I was on many Christian forums,
I experienced many people who chose to reject NT verses!
Especially those verses which condemned those
in the church who were involved in habitual sin.
They preferred the so-called OSAS eternal security verses.
But, praise God, they can repent and return to Him!

So, I am not the least bit surprised to encounter people
on Christian forums today who reject the fact that
God personally speaks to His born-again people.
My goodness, He even speaks to non-believers,
especially when He is calling them to Himself
(I experienced this myself big-time in 1980.)

Just a heads up. This is not considered "A Christian forum" but rather a subforum ABOUT Christianity on a large forum ABOUT Religion and Spirituality. People who do not claim to be Christian are allowed to post here, and no one is permitted to determine who else is a Christian.

For Christians don't need the brick and mortar, as Christians have the temple of the Holy Spirit who can take God everywhere they go, Just need the church for the family of God .... Great that you got a place in expensive BC with inflated real estate and expensive green plan for the season ...... Just remember to never isolate your church from the body of Christ, as the Spirit of God can dry up in isolation, so it is best to pray for other churches to beat divisions against God ........

Why do you need a "safe haven?"

What do you want to hide?

or ...
"They have NOT heard correctly from Me."

Simple.
In the Prince George area then ? Since the 60s that has been a mecca for those who want that something else.
