    Alexander, Churches are not torn down or converted to houses by secular authorities and no well attended church has been disestablished.

    If you ever study your Bible (and I hope that you do) you will know that this age will experience a great falling away or apostasy and that is precisely what we are seeing and the reason that church buildings are closing. They close because they can no longer be sustained by their congregation and they have insufficient congregation for a number of reasons, apostasy, liberalism, modern-secular doctrines adopted by the leadership, etc. etc. I don't see Churches where the Word of God is preached from the Word, day by day and week on week in an expositionary manner and where doctrine is orthoddox and sound, from a basis of well established Biblical hermeneutics, closing. The Bible also teaches that, as Christians, we should obey our Government when their edicts do not propose a direct contravention of the law of God and that we should play a part, when it is available, in selecting our leaders. All authority and all dominion is God granted, no one is placed in a position of power that has not been raised there by the Lord and He can bring them down just as He raised them up.

    I am glad that you will never renounce Christianity, in the years to come there will be much pressure for you (and all professing Christians) to do so, so study your Bible daily and strengthen your faith in word and deed through prayer and quiet time spent with the Lord so that you will be equipped to resist to the end when the time comes. Just some good advice from your brother in Christ.
