Re: Petition to SUPPORT Houston pastors

In our society, churches that overtly become political lose their tax exempt status.

If a small group of pastors use their pulpits for overtly political purposes, they should be willing to face political opposition.

Pastors and their church boards need to think long and hard about the political content and activity their church engages in.

If a pastor resists sin in society, and admonishes his congregation of believers to do the same, all is well.

But when citizens meet in a church and strategize how to enact political change, they put themselves at risk of political reprisal.


In Houston, are all churches being given subpoenas, or just a very few ?

Pastors and boards need to carefully consider how to resist sinful influences upon society in a apolitical manner.
