[Music] pastor james coats was arrested and sent to prison a couple of weeks ago in canada what did he do he held a church service coates was denied bail apparently he is set to be released soon he is still facing at least one charge his wife aaron said he had a very tough time in jail he was placed in a two-week quarantine only allowed to leave the cell twice for 15 minutes each time it's a shocking story we spoke to erin coats earlier about her husband's case here's what she told us this coach thanks very much for coming on it's hard to believe it's shocking really that your husband is in jail first how's he doing well he's in prison he's facing all the regular things you would face there uh trouble with food and um you know i don't even really know what to say how is he doing he is he's a shepherd he's a he's a bible teacher he's a theologian he's not able to shepherd the people that he loves he's not able to challenge his mind he's not able to serve in the way that he loves to serve people so this is this is hard on him a grown man sitting in prison for preaching a sermon this is such obvious tyranny that i've got to ask have any authorities in canada come to your help i mean this is the ruling of one judge but you have a lot of politicians in alberta or any of them coming to the rescue sure i think that there's actually mps and some mlas behind the scenes that are are trying to help us but other than that i think their hands are tied you are are you canadian i am canadian yes so you grew up in the country do you recognize it now no i don't this is definitely not the nation that i grew up in what do you think what do you think happened well i think there's been a we're like a boiling frog for a while i think our freedoms have just been slowly stripped from us and and and so slowly over time that we didn't even realize it and so when something like a health order is put in place that takes away your freedoms it's not shocking to people and it really should be shocking to people that there is a pastor in jail right now who's given his life to sacrifice and love other people to worship god that that's not shocking to a lot of people and it really should be we are on a dangerous road right now and i think because we've just been in the pot for so long boiling that people aren't really realizing the danger that we're facing as a nation throughout the united states we've seen christian ministers harassed because they are christian ministers and therefore disobedient they serve a higher power you haven't seen this happen to people who run abortion clinics or strip bars or marijuana dispensaries do you believe that's in this country do you believe your husband was singled out because he's a christian pastor well i have to believe that the enemy is singling him out we have a real enemy who really hates the lord jesus christ and really hates the blood body that he purchased on the cross and has given new life to um yes we have an absolute real enemy and he uses people to target the ministers of god we know that through scripture we know that through church history and so i really believe that they are being targeted in our country i think a lot of people watching this who would have maybe dismissed what you just said a year ago or now maybe taking it a little bit more seriously i appreciate your coming on your husband is blessed to have a wife like you thank you thank you tucker
