Carpenter's Tools - By Pastor Wallace Phillips

This week’s message: The Law is the Law

I had this one passed along to me by a friend recently. Thought you’d like to read it.

So if the government determines that it is against the law for the words “under God” to be on our money, then so be it. And if that same government decides that the “Ten Commandments” are not to be used in or on a government installation, then so be it. I say, “So be it,” because I would like to be a law-abiding citizen of the U.S. I say, “so be it,” because I would like to think that smarter people than I are in positions to make good decisions. I would like to think that those people have the American public’s best interest at heart. But you know what else I’d like?

Since we can’t pray to God, can’t trust in God and cannot post His Commandments in Government buildings, I don’t believe the Government and its employees should participate in the Easter and Christmas celebrations which honor the God that our government is eliminating from the many facets of American life. I’d like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving, and Easter. After all, it’s just another day. I’d like the Supreme Court to be in session on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving, and Easter as well as Sundays. After all, it’s just another day. I’m thinking that a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved if all the government offices and services would work on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving, and Easter. It shouldn’t cost any overtime since those would just be like any other day of the week to a government that is trying to be “politically correct”.

In fact, I think our government should work on Sundays (initially set aside for worshiping God…) because, after all, our government says that it should just be another day. If this idea gets to enough people, maybe our elected officials will stop giving in to the minority opinions and begin once again to represent the majority of all the American people.

So be it!
