Should Churches Defy or Comply With Government Restrictions for Covid-19?

Defiance or compliance?

Is compliance with government restrictions regarding Covid-19 on church gatherings disobedience to the commands of God? Should churches defy local restrictions and gather together for worship as they have in the past? Some high-profile leaders answer with a strong, “yes.” Compliance with government constitutes disobedience to Jesus the Lord of the church. Is that strong, defiant position correct? Or, are there other considerations that need to be addressed? Should churches defy or comply?
