1/ What pandemic?? 2/ How the heck could you leave the truth to follow a lie and illusion, particularly in these times? 3/ Any real Christian would have rejected this world as soon as they were born again.

" Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of [a]Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of [b]sin is revealed, the son of perdition, "

During the pandemic people's relationship with the Lord was either strengthened or weakened .I don't think there was a middle ground

1/ Covid-19. I'm sure you've heard of it. It's a disease that's infected 279m and killed more than 5m people.
2/ people have always started to follow and then turned away from God - even during Jesus' ministry and the growth of the early church (John 6:66 From that time on many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him). The parable of the sower also addresses it.

Nope - can't say it ever made much difference - other than a lack of "Convenience". I still went to work every day, ate lunch at whatever restaurants were open, and went to church when they were legally permitted to open, and watched the services on TV when they weren't. Can't say that MY life, or the family's life changed much at all, not did most of society here in South Dallas. I got vaxxed when it became available, and didn't have much concern about getting sick (never did). Everyboidy I knew personally who got sick, just got better.

(Deuteronomy 7)ESV
"For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth."
(Deuteronomy 7)ESV
"The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all peoples: but because the LORD loveth you, and because he would keep the oath which he sware unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. [ from the Wicked one, the Prince of This World] Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God; the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; and repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: HE WILL NOT BE SLACK TO HIM THAT HATETH HIM, HE will repay him to his face." [ IT WILL COME TO PASS.]

faith can fade away

But "HOPE" is "The Anchor of THE SOUL"

faith, it depends on which way the wind is blowing.

But "HOPE" holds on, No matter which way The WIND BLOWS and no matter how DARK IT gets it will HOLD ON. And when the WATERS come. For this ANCHOR RUNS DEEP! For HE is The ANCHOR of [our] MY SOUL! and HE Holds the LIne TIGHT!

dont believe the lies about people dieing and infected. And just because people left the church in ancient times, doesnt excuse them from doing it now.

I don't believe the lies. I know many people who have been infected, some with mild symptoms, some severe, and some who have died. What I see in my own neighbourhood matches what I read about the global situation.
