Almighty God held his tremendous Sermon on the Mount before multitudes during a 1st century Leprosy Pandemic.
This isn't "suicide", this is just one preacher's determination that this pandemic is being vastly overhyped.
BTW, Rev. Jim Jones was a devout Religious Leftists in the mold of Jeremiah Wright and Jim Wallis.
Further, categorizing this church as a "megachurch" is inflammatory to say the least. Libs have been denouncing large churches as if that's "bad" somehow.
There are other churches that are also taking a stand against the governmental authorities. The Bible shows that is actually taking a stand against God:
Romans 13:1,2
Let every person be in subjection to the superior authorities,+ for there is no authority except by God;+ the existing authorities stand placed in their relative positions by God.+ 2 Therefore, whoever opposes* the authority has taken a stand against the arrangement of God; those who have taken a stand against it will bring judgment against themselves.
Also, this virus is extremely contagious - those people who defy the government's direction to shelter in place will have innocent blood on their hands. They will share the virus with each other, and when they go shopping (etc) give it to others.
Government authorities in America have proclaimed another law as well, the 1st Amendment guaranteeing the right to practice their faith.
