Mad 4 Jesus Ministries<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Authorities in the UK will be reviewing an officer\u2019s conduct after a video interaction of her with some street preachers went viral. Monique Bailey, who goes by Mon B on her socials, a preacher who oversees Mad 4 Jesus Ministries, were being told their group couldn\u2019t stand in front of barriers near King’s Cross station where they were preaching. A female member of the British Transport Police then approached their group, saying, \u201cIt\u2019s so loud.\u201d When asked if the group was doing anything wrong, she responded, \u201cThese people just want to do their journey\u2014they’re not coming here to listen to you.\u201d The evangelist then asks the officer, \u201cIf I was doing a happy, clappy song it would be OK?” to which the officer responds, “I just think it’s all wrong,\u201d before walking away.<\/p>\n

Bailey shared about the interaction on social media<\/a>, writing, \u201cGod cannot be mocked.\u201d In another post, Bailey stated, \u201cThe GOD I serve is very real and HIS name is JESUS! He cannot be mocked. Don\u2019t stop His servants from doing what He loves. To see souls saved. I pray this is a wake up call to all those who don\u2019t believe and for Christians who have slumbered. CHURCH ARISE!\u201d Bailey shared that another officer present during the interaction, \u201cwas not really getting involved and actually was happy to hear the gospel and wanted prayer afterwards though (shown in the next reel) God is good!\u201d<\/p>\n

British Transport Police responded<\/a> to the video, stating, \u201cWe are aware of a video posted on social media showing an interaction involving an officer outside King\u2019s Cross railway station.<\/p>\n

Officers were on patrol at the station when they came across a group preaching on private land with a loudspeaker, which requires permission from Network Rail. As such, they asked them to leave. We fully appreciate everyone\u2019s right to religious expression, and the incident in full is currently being reviewed by a senior officer.\u201d What type of disciplinary action the officer might face, if any, remains unclear.<\/p>\n

Bailey said she believes the interaction is part of the ever-increasing persecution of Christians worldwide. \u201cAs a believer, I totally believe in the Bible, and I believe we are in the days where persecution will be heavy on Christians,\u201d she told GB News<\/a>. Despite the risk, she emphasized her commitment to sharing the message. \u201cI know we\u2019re in a time where people do not want to hear this truth. I respect everyone who does not want to believe this. Fine. But when you have the knowing, it\u2019s important we get it out there,\u201d she said. \u201cI think this should be a wake-up call to many people. I think people need to wake up and see what is really going on. I have a friend in Brighton who is preaching gospel a lot, and a lot of it is happening down there as well.\u201d She told the People\u2019s Channel that there is \u201cinconsistency\u201d with how the law approaches Christians preaching versus other religions. \u201cThey don\u2019t do it to other religions to this extent. Of course not. We know that,\u201d she said. \u201cWe have to be honest. They\u2019re not going for the Hindus or the Buddhists or the Muslims like they are with Christians. It\u2019s truth. It\u2019s facts. But that is because he [Jesus] is the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
