New Census?

[Agricola]

If someone knocked on door and asked me questions claiming they were "on official business", I would tell them to do one.

Elaborate criminal activity springs to mind, lets survey the neighbourhood and get people to tell us what they own and what their security is so we know which houses we can steal from later on.

Any official Census as pointed out previous replies, would be advertised and made known to the public before hand.

All of your answers to the ACS are completely secure and are not shared with other government departments.

Whish that was true here. Our government sells our rica details to anyone for R50 ($6) a number (name, adress, cell #).

It is scary to see our freedoms being taken away by the growing Leviathan of government. I see a tension here for us. I think we need to be reasonably well informed that we might understand the times that we are living in. There is a definite spiritual dimension to that. Yet, on the other hand, we can get too obsessed with conspiracy theories and shipwreck our ministries and Christian lives. We must remember that this world is 'enemy territory'. Satan is the god of this world, and he is the puppet master pulling the strings until Christ returns. I think that if the Lord tarries, hard times could be ahead for believers. We might get a dose of what the early church experienced. The times make it imperative that we draw nigh to the Lord.

And draw night to each other as the Body of Christ....

I think us drawing together is inevitable. Anyone who stands against the rather clear / extreme immorality out there is a brother and best friend. True Christianity can simply not be faked these days.
