Christianity is legal in America again!
Those in the used car business certainly understand the phrase “I was sold a lemon.” Being sold a lemon means that the outside appearance of something does not necessarily reveal the condition on the inside.
In other words, outward appearance is not always indicative of what is at the heart of the matter.
Since at least 1947 the US Supreme Court, with the approval of the other two branches of government, we have sold the lie that there was a separation between the Church and the State. For over 75 years, Christians in America have been sold a lemon. The Supreme Court decision Everson v Board of Education criminalized the teaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the public square…especially in our “public” schools.
Our Government has lied to us. Our courts have betrayed us. Our nation has suffered from the banishment of Christianity to the back of the bus. Our nation is adrift in sewer-level morality as a result of this separation between morality and State. If there is no standard of right and wrong, how does one make value judgements? What is the standard by which something is judged right and another behavior judged wrong? Who decides?
From the day the Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock in September of 1620, with the official signing of the Mayflower Compact, America was established as a Christian nation. The Document reads in part:
IN THE NAME OF GOD, AMEN. We, whose names are underwritten, the Loyal Subjects of our dread Sovereign Lord King James, by the Grace of God, of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, King, Defender of the Faith, &c. Having undertaken for the Glory of God, and Advancement of the Christian Faith…
America never was intended to be a secular country. Christianity was the midwife of the birth of this nation. No amount of rewriting of American History can change that. The Declaration of Independence declares that “the laws of Nature and of Nature’s God” produce God given, inalienable rights.
Let us stop kidding ourselves. Even though Jesus Christ nor Christianity is mentioned in the Declaration or the US Constitution there can be no doubt that the organic roots and purpose of the Pilgrims arrival was the “advancement of the Christian Faith.” What other CREATOR could they possibly be referring to? Our Constitution PROTECTS individual liberty, it does not restrict it. In fact, the first God-given right mention in the Bill of Rights was Religion. Christianity secures the “right of conscience.” No other religion in the world does that. Remove Christianity and individual rights begin to disappear as secular government becomes the law-giver.
Have you looked around lately at the “rights” that are under assault in America? The removal of Christ from the American equation has opened the door to untold debauchery and crime. From 1620 until 1947, 326 years, the consensus was that America was a Christian Nation. Five terrorists in black robes overturned THREE CENTURIES of Christian GOVERNMENTAL authority.
One decision, by a vote of 5-4, made the Christian religion illegal in the public square.
What, you may ask, does this have to do with Lemons? Patience, my friends, patience.
There is a principle in law know as the COLOR” of law. “Color of law refers to the appearance of legal authority or an apparently legal right that may not exist. The term is often used to describe the abuse of power under the guise of state authority, and is therefore illegal.”
The enforcement of any statute under the COLOR of law is a crime. In other words, if they tell a person that it is illegal to pray at a public meeting because it violates the Constitution, they have committed a crime. Read it for yourself.
“Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States…shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.”
Enforcing a law that is NO LAW AT ALL is a serious crime. ANY restriction on the rights secured by the FIRST Amendment is a CRIME!! Restrictions on individual expressions of religion, speech, press, assembly, or petition is a crime. Period. Congress shall make no law…
By the way, Court opinions are not LAWS. They are simply opinions ABOUT the law. Courts CANNOT make laws. Congress makes laws. Abortion was NEVER legal. The Courts simply opined that it was.
However, just recently, the SCOTUS ruled the previous Court “opinion” regarding abortion was wrong. Since 1973 anyone convicted of a “crime” outside an abortion clinic has been a victim of the COLOR of law…convicted of a crime that was NO CRIME AT ALL. In fact, millions of Americans have been injured by the LIE that illegally banned Christian speech in Government affairs. Please take a couple of minutes and watch this brief video.
The video explains that in the recent case involving prayer at a football game public Christianity was legalized once again.
Which brings me back to the lemons. The Lemon test was a standard created by the SCOTUS in 1971by which they would judge whether “religious” speech had a “secular” purpose. Our current SCOTUS ruled that the LEMON TEST used to evaluate speech was illegal. Watch this short vid. Religious express is free speech and cannot be censored.
(Sorry if your head is spinning). Here is the take home. Our Government has sold us a bunch of malarky under the COLOR of law. It is time we woke up and understood the great shift that has taken place.
Once again, prayer in school is legal. Bible reading is legal. The posting of the 10 Commandments is legal. Abortion is NOT legal. Every Christian statue, every copy of the 10 Commandments taken down from public buildings, should be returned! Christmas can be about Jesus again. Freedom OF religion…not freedom FROM religion. Our schools can teach Christian morality again!! The religion of Humanism no longer has a monopoly on the minds of America’s children!
The courts have spoken and they have legalized Jesus once again. The schoolhouse door has opened to Christianity. The WELCOME mat is on the threshold. Will the CHURCH take the ball and run with it? Will we once again demand our place at the table?
Let us crush the Lemons into Lemonade!!
