Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The First Amendment is a cornerstone of America. Free speech and free exercise of religion is at the heart of country. Yesterday National Public Radio fired Juan Williams for stating his feelings of fear about seeing Muslims on airplanes. Being politically correct is a growing requirement in our country.
I have no doubt the pulpit will soon be in the target of the PC police. If one preaches what could be deemed as an offensive message, he will catch the wrath of those who disagree. That is okay. But when that wrath turns legal and seeks to silence the preacher, we are in big trouble.
America is on the verge of sinking. Pastors need to be courageous and biblical. When the heat comes, the church needs to stand and the preacher needs to preach what "thus saith the Lord."
