In the past hour my brother in Christ @TissenTobias has been arrested by @rcmpmb in Steinbach for the sake of the Gospel. Please pray for his young family and that God would strengthen him tonight in a special way. #standwithGod
"Bye Daddy" @TissenTobias arrested tonight in front of his family for being a minister of the Gospel in Canada.
Tobias had been "in hiding" since the warrant was issued, except he appeared at his church every Sunday morning and told the cops this. Since he's getting arrested for holding church service, he thought it only made sense he get arrested at the church. But the cops refused to arrest him there, instead trying to hunt him down everywhere except the place they knew he'd be.

Because arresting clergy at their church is terrible optics, which matters more than the righteousness of the order.
