I Prayed have prayed
Lord God, we pray for victory in this case challenging Vimeo's censorship and banning of videos describing freedom in Christ for homosexuals. Help Pastor Domen as he makes his case to the Supreme Court.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

IFA webcast guest Pastor Jim Domen is asking the Supreme Court to act on behalf of free speech and religious liberty. As a former homosexual who shares a message of freedom in Christ, Domen’s rights were infringed by the Vimeo video platform.

Pastor Jim Domen, who appeared on IFA’s Pray with America’s Leaders webcast, leads a national ministry engaging pastors in cultural issues impacting their communities. Domen, founder of Church United, a California-based ministry to more than 2,000 pastors, filed suit against Vimeo after the social media company shuttered Church United’s account in November 2018, saying five of its videos promoted change therapy in violation of its terms of service.

The Vimeo policy in essence squelches their ability to share their own true-life stories which contradict the narrative of LGBT advocates who falsely allege change isn’t possible — and such therapy is harmful.

“We’re hopeful the court will see the injustice, the discrimination done to me as a former homosexual,” said Domen.

Domen said his case is another example of how Big Tech hides behind Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act 1996, which essentially shields social media platforms from free speech requirements governing more traditional media outlets such as newspapers and broadcast news.

Vimeo’s motives were exposed, he said, when the platform pulled all 89 videos in the Church United library, not just the five in question.

Scheduled to speak, are:

  1. Opening Prayer – Dave Kubal, CEO and Executive Director for Intercessors for America, Virginia
  2. Nothing but the Blood of Jesus – Vocal Artist and Pastor Edward Byrd, Georgia (Former Androgynous, Gender Queer)
  3. Pastor and Author Jim Domen, California (Former Homosexual)
  4. Attorney Mariah Gonderio, Advocates for Faith and Freedom, Montana
  5. Pulse Night Club Massacre Survivor, Luis Ruiz, Florida (Former Homosexual)
  6. Pastors John and Latita Taylor, California
  7. Pastor Larry Ihrig, Celebration Church, Livermore, California

Pastor Ché Ahn, senior pastor of Harvest Rock Church in Pasadena, California, lauds Domen’s pursuit of justice. Just last year, Ahn successfully sued the state over the forced closure of his congregation due to COVID-19, winning a $1.35 million settlement.

“As Americans, we are guaranteed our First Amendment rights to the freedom of speech and to religious liberty.” Ahn said, adding, “This unconstitutional discrimination betrays political and ideological biases, targeting Pastor Domen based on his expression of faith, religious views, and sexual orientation. It is imperative that we join forces to push back against the cancel culture that is trying to silence law-abiding citizens, who espouse a different worldview than what the mainstream culture endorses.

I pray God’s healing and protection power on all our youth. Protect their minds from the powers that are trying to destroy their body, mind, soul and spirit. Jesus loves them, this we know.

God’s people started this wonderful and faith filled country. The problems associated with the USA currently, are directly related to those, much like in this case, would change Gods laws to mans laws. Jesus was clear on marriage being between a man and a woman. His father, and our father has laws and ways that are best for us. Godless America is the end of America. Please take the necessary steps to let Gods laws return to our country. Thank you for your consideration.

I pray for everyone involved in this fiasco. Lord, please take what the enemy means for evil, and turn it for good. I pray a prayer of protection around all the people involved in this issue of standing up for what is right. I pray that the Supreme Court will hear this case for what it truly is. I pray that they would render a decision that is consistent with Your will. Thank You , Jesus.

This type of censorship is unconstitutional and should be overturned. Ironic at this time when we are told that everyone should live “their truth” that this person’s true story is not accepted/allowed to be shared because it does not fit/conform to the current narrative which is not truth at all but a huge deception being forced upon our culture by the media non-stop; – a deception which is anti God and anti Biblical truth in every aspect. Here again, the answer is truth – “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:32 Without the freedom to proclaim truth, a nation is not really free. http://www.mtothe5th.wordpress.com

Praise the Lord for these precious ones who have come out of darkness into the marvelous light of truth. Only Jesus can deliver us from our sins but so grateful for this ministry that teaches the truth of His love and healing power so others may know what He has done for each of us.
I pray for blessings upon this ministry and for those who will be delivered from this lie of the enemy.
