Can Christians Pursue “Religious Exemption” to Abstain from the COVID Vaccine?

Episode 815 Show Notes

From the Show

I don’t want to dismiss people’s genuine concerns, but I do want to say this: don’t say that you have a religious issue with the vaccine when it may be more of a personal or political issue. I have heard of folks who don’t want to get the vaccine and they don’t go to church but they are contacting pastors seeking religious exemption even though they’re not members there. And my thought is, you should get religious first before you start seeking religious exemptions.

I was reading 2 Kings and in chapter 2:23-25 there is the strange incident of Elisha cursing a group of boys and 2 bears killing them. I do not know how I could explain this if someone asked me about this disturbing incident. It seems very random and cruel to punish the boys for calling him “bald-head”?

Please can you help me understand it?
