Religious Liberty Update #1
.
This is the first update since the religious liberty campaign in January. For this I ask your forgiveness for this neglect of duty. I am asking for God’s mercy and forgiveness. I will try to redeem the times for the remainder of this year. Religious liberty is one of the most important issues in these last days of earth’s history. The salvation of souls is at stake, ours and those outside our church. It is my determination to bring to you an update on specific issues of our freedom each month or two during the remainder of this year. I am asking Russell to hold me accountable for that goal. Listed below are some of the issues we will look at over the remainder of 2009.  (1)   The Obama administration’s response to the "faith- based initiative" between church and state.  (2)   The same-sex marriage issue as it relates to the First Amendment.   (3) Future influence of the "religious right". (4)   The Catholic Church’s relationship to the U.S. government and it’s constitution. (5)   Pope Benedict XVI latest Encyecial,"Charity In Truth" on cooperation between church and states.  (6)   The "Sunday Law" threat. It is absolutely essential that you get your religious liberty information from reliable sources. Otherwise you will be getting misinformation or even worse- rumors. And none of us want to be caught in the "rumor-mill". Be especially careful on the internet, because it reeks with unreliable information. Make sure you can trust your internet sources.  Following is a list of good resource material for religious liberty information.
