"Our speaker was electrifying," Pastor John Bouquet, coordinator of the Prayer Breakfast said. "Pastor Artur Pawlowski and his wife, Marzena, came to us from Calgary, Canada. Pastor Artur shared his story of speaking up and speaking out during the COVID lock downs of the Canadian government. He faced opposition from a Government bound and determined to silence his voice because of his calling to preach the Gospel and teach people the Word of God."

A special connection exists between Ohioans and the high-profile Canadian pastor. During the pandemic, the Ohio Legislature advocated against draconian Canadian policies and on top of that, faith leaders in North Central Ohio resisted oppressive federal health mandates.

"I want to thank you so much for supporting our fight in Canada," Pastor Pawlowski told the prayer breakfast attendees. "Ohio is very special to my heart because it was this state government here that stood for us when our own government in Canada tried to destroy us. Thank you so much for passing the bill (H.R.194) and plowing the field of freedom."

"My passion is not actually 'freedom of expression' or 'freedom of religion'. My passion is Jesus Christ because He was the biggest freedom fighter that ever lived on this side of eternity. Christ said that whoever comes to Him is free indeed, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty."

Following a song by the Salvation Army Youth Choir, Pawlowski shared about his troubles with the draconian COVID laws and challenging the status quo. "After travelling four months, (during the Pandemic) warning Americans about Canadian tyranny, I returned to Canada and was immediately arrested after stepping out of the plane. I have never seen anyone arrested on the tarmac-it happened to me. What a great takedown of the El Chapo of Canada, the Al Capone of Alberta! What were my charges? Inciting people to come to church."

Pastor Bouquet believes when a man like Artur Pawlowski has a 'Calling from on High' to preach Biblical truth and proclaim liberty in Christ, no totalitarian government will ever be able to silence the message. While courage can be contagious, it does come with a cost; and that cost has been malicious prosecution.

According to Pawlowski, "I have been arrested sixteen times by Canadian officials. I was literally kidnapped by sheriffs and taken to Edmonton to a maximum-security prison where it was twenty-eight degrees below zero. In all, I have been cited three hundred-fifty times, and have been in one hundred-twenty court cases. My first citation was for feeding the poor. I was also cited for disseminating printed materials, so my Bibles and Gospel tracts were confiscated. This brutal Canadian regime was trying to make an example of me; but I was actually making an example of them." (Screengrab image: via Frontlines Ohio)

Pawlowski was the symbol of resistance to get the trucker convoy started. "I was asked to be their chaplain and gave sermons to the truckers," he says. "I was physically attacked. I have received five different reports of guards giving inmates incentives to kill me while in prison. They tried to burn down my house at night, for months they vandalized my church. The Canadian legal system stripped me of my clothes and put me on display in front of men and women. I was even placed in solitary confinement for twenty-five hours where the most dangerous terrorists are kept. But here I am, I am still standing!"

In the many attempts to silence Artur Pawlowski, he was offered money, positions of influence, and political clout. "For eight months the Canadian government tried to blackmail me," the Canadian Pastor revealed. "They offered me $2 million to shut my mouth. They offered me a guaranteed seat at the legislature if I would just shut up. I was told if I do not want to be a politician I could have a government job making $250,000. They finally realized I would not compromise. You see, Art Palowski is not for sale because I have already been bought by the precious Blood of Jesus. I am not for sale!" he said to applause.

"I have filed the biggest lawsuit in the history of Canada, I am suing the Attorney General of Canada, I am going after the Calvary Chief of Police and RCP officers. A few months ago we served papers to the Director of Prison that kept me in metal cages, and naked in solitary confinement, and he resigned a few days after. So far we have taken down the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Health, the Premier, and the Director of Prison and this is just the beginning. I have absolutely no intention of stopping until Justice is served."

Quitters never win, and winners never quit. Courage can be infectious, and Pastor Bouquet hopes the Artur Pawlowski becomes a super-spreader in Ohio. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here

The Bottom Line:

The Bible says in John Ten, "I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. The hired hand is not the Shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it."
