Comm #12: New Heroes of the Republic
Good morning precious pastors and ministry leaders of our treasured nation. Joan here, and this morning I just really want you to know the high esteem with which we regard you. 'We,' being the four of us in this coalition, which we put together to humbly serve you this year. We do believe God has called us to do it, and we are deeply committed to you.
Your voices had been being pinched off for increasing years, but these last four years the current administration has freshly welcomed you and respected what you have to say. That is a God-led love, we think. And what do you think - do you feel an upswell of revival in our nation? I hope you do, as I do.
Given what has gone down this year, I pay attention when pundits say that our future as a country might become Socialist. Oh I pray not, but clearly there are those who are advocating for it which is the opposite of the free nation Under God we've been.
"With liberty and justice for all" has been our guiding principle all this time. The Founders meant that seriously, because it’s Biblical therefore true. And they fought for it.
We've always fought for it. Had to, to keep liberty, and to keep the true and fair love of justice that has not only kept us free, but has served as a living example for other nations around the world. It has been our duty, and so it remains our duty.
You are the key to keeping justice for all, because those of us whose faith guides our life know that faith must guide our national life, too, or else we will have a human form of justice emerge that is at odds with the kind we've always known.
Today's heroes of the Republic, who confront those who would destroy that Republic, now must be unafraid when the law is used as a weapon against our freedoms. Thank you Lord, our heroes are growing in number, in boldness, and in ability.
Here's President of the Pacific Justice Institute, attorney and coalition member, Brad Dacus, with stunning examples.
--------------------------------------------------------------
There is a growing group of pastors, young and old, who have sensed a God-given call to courageously encourage their congregations to vote their values during these tumultuous times. All of these leaders are compelled by the writings of Scripture and their God-given calling to preach the word, win the lost, and further the mission to which they've dedicated their lives.
Many of these pastors have courageously stood for the truth and we recognize the price they have paid to follow Gods leading on their lives. Below are a few examples of some of the pastors who have heroically stood for what they believe during this time.
Pastor Carlos Robles from On A Mission Church in Walnut, CA
Pastor Robles has been standing for the truth and was informed by Los Angeles County Officials (under threat of fines, imprisonment or both) that he could not host a freedom rally meant to unify both their congregation and the City of Walnut with focus on Christians and God's Kingdom where I was scheduled to speak.
Under God's direction, Pastor Robles elected to continue forward in hosting the event, even while law enforcement and health department officials were present. How encouraging it is to know there are brave men and women who will act based on principle regardless of the cost. You can see a more detailed account of what occurred via this ABC News link ([link removed]) .
Pastor Paul Chappell, Lancaster Baptist Church in Lancaster, CA
Pastor Chappell was fined by the LA County Health Department the same week he hosted a large in person event focused on developing and encouraging conservative leadership. Over a thousand people were in attendance as they stood with local and state lawmakers who are fighting for conservative values. Among those who spoke or were recognized at the event were former AR Governor Mike Huckabee, myself, and Founder of the Christian Law Association, David Gibbs.
Pastor Rob McCoy, Godspeak Calvary Chapel, Thousand Oaks CA
He has gone to court just for holding services and he has been threatened with Imprisonment. The officials of Ventura County even threatened to fine 1,000 of the congregants and charge them with misdemeanors for coming to church.
Pastor McCoy not only encouraged his church to meet, but he pointed out the double standard set by leftist leadership to allow and encourage anyone and everyone to gather for protest but not to gather for church. Also, he has boldly proclaimed the truths the biased news media will not report.
He has continued to host and promote conservative leaders such as Sen. Rand Paul from Kentucky. Pastor McCoy has also inspired many to pursue public office to protect their God-given freedoms.
These men are not perfect and they do not claim to be, but their voices are heroic. They are risking everything to stand for what they believe and to proclaim the information they believe is being hidden from the American people. They are the new heroes of the Republic, who will not be silent. They have chosen to be a voice for freedom and for that we should thank them.
