A Sermon Worth Listening To
My father, who passed away in November 2007, was a man of faith, a conservative to be sure, and evangelical in the sense that he was unafraid to share his faith, though he would not wear his faith on his sleeve, nor would he be in your face about his faith, or an individual’s lack of faith.
After he passed away, I was looking through a book of his, which my sister gave him, where he was able to record some of the history of his life, amongest other things.
One of the other things the book allowed him to record, was the ten (10) most important things he could instruct his children in, all eight (8) of us, though he only penned four (4).
The number one (1) most important thing he wrote down to instruct us kids was “You cannot legislate morality.”
I immediately thought of this when clicking over to Greg Manikaw’s Blog and perused a post titled Faith-based Economics.
The post is actually only a photograph of The Brick Church’s marquee, which lists the Sunday morning worship time, a Wednesday communion time, various pastors associated with the church, and the title of the Sunday morning sermon.
The Problem With Regulatory Agencies.
State directed regulatory agencies are legislators of morality, whose only authority is force, and I would hope that the sermon preached noted this, and condemned it.
Have faith in this, “You cannot legislate morality.”
