Mark 13:13 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”
Pastors across America are expressing their solidarity with pastors in the Houston area who are being harassed by the city government with “I Stand Sunday.”
The event will feature former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention and members of the Duck Dynasty family. The event is aimed to raise awareness of government attempts to intimidate Christians into silence.
“This is not about speeches, not about sermons, not about teachings even on biblical morality…it is about intimidation,” said Perkins. “This is about political intimidation and it is about the mayor using the bully pulpit to try and silence the pulpits of Houston.”
The pastors being harassed by the city had spoken out about the city’s new law that would allow situations such as men using women’s bathrooms.
“I Stand Sunday” will be held November 2nd at Grace Church in Houston and broadcast nationwide.
“Hosted by Family Research Council and other partners, speakers from across the nation will gather at Grace Community Church in Houston to focus on the freedom to live out our faith free of government intrusion or monitoring,” reads the I Stand Sunday website. “We will stand with pastors and churches in Houston who have been unduly intimidated by the city’s mayor in demanding they hand over private church communication.”
But God, He and He alone can save this rebellious nation. He shed his precious Blood for us . Repent . and Live .
I stand with the pastors of Houston in preaching the truth thru God’s word.
I’m praying that the Lord will make a way to “turn the table” against those who selfishly choose to deny the
Scriptural definition of SIN in order to promote their own political and corporate agendas. In arguing against slavery, William H. Seward once argued that there is a “higher law than the Constitution” when it
comes to morality. There’s still a “higher law”, but people in political power just aren’t reading and heeding
it. Walt
We must stand united in Gods word & truth, not allowing intimidation to creep into out pulpits!
Way to go…Fight back Houston…….Stand up with Pastors who have a backbone to preach the TRUTH about SIN and not smiley feel good stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We will be praying !!!!
