Pastor, parishioner cited for shooting arrow during church service

SHEBOYGAN FALLS, Wis. (AP) — A pastor and parishioner have been cited by police for shooting an arrow during a church service in Sheboygan Falls.

Rev. John Putnam had Jason Wilke shoot the arrow across the front of the church during a recent service at Pentecostals of Sheboygan County. Putnam says it was a "teaching tool" used during his sermon.

As Wilke prepared to shoot the arrow with his bow, one man stood up and objected, telling Putnam it was unsafe and illegal. Parishioners say Putnam told the man to be quiet and sit down.

When the man objected a second time, Putnam asked him to leave. He did and called police.

Wilke was cited for using a missile indoors. Putnam was cited for aiding and abetting. Both were fined $109.

When the spirit of the law is lost the letter of the law takes over and the result is bondage for everyone.

The verses below are what happens when the letter of the law is observed.

And that is what happened in this church too.

Mat 10:21 And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against [their] parents, and cause them to be put to death.

Mar 13:12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against [their] parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.

It may well have been an unsafe exercise.

A proper response from the pastor may have been:

" I understand and appreciate your concern brother and I will respect it today.

Even though I feel this demonstration could be carried out safely we will error on the side of safety."

"yall pentecostals?"

why are you here?

[SOUNWORTHY]

The man was probably looking for trouble. As long as the arrow wasn't aimed at someone it was no big deal. I heard of a church that had some masked men come in at offering time and took the offering. The pastor was demonstrating the idea that men will rob God. Stunt went over like a lead balloon.

There was a lady on the news that was hit by an arrow on Monday.
