JUST SUPPOSE
JUST SUPPOSE that at every ball
game, graduation, prom, etc., someone who
has had enough of stupid, anti-historical court decisions had the guts to
start reciting the Lord's Prayer loudly, and others joined in, then more,
until hundreds participated.
And JUST SUPPOSE this spread all over our land until this became standard
practice in hundreds of schools- then thousands--then tens of thousands.
Just what would local school boards do? Expel half the student body? (They
need their jobs and federal funding far too much to do that.) What would a
Federal district court do? Order hundreds of non-violent, decent minors
jailed? Or thousands?
Just what would the Supreme Court do about it-issue more edicts? What if
millions decided the Supreme Court was out of its league and said "So
what?"
JUST SUPPOSE hundreds of brave school board members, local judges,
prosecutors, and others, each in their own area of authority, refused to
intervene, realizing that we have already tried it the other way, and the
result was a modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah of immorality and senseless
violence.
JUST SUPPOSE this then spread next into classroom after classroom, and
either a brave student or a brave teacher started the Lord's Prayer (or
Psalm 100, or a Bible reading, etc.) each morning, until hundreds of
thousands stood up and did their part and stopped cowering before the
destructive, God-hating secular attitudes of the pagan minority who parrot
the media line.
JUST SUPPOSE every God-fearing Christian participated--peacefully,
non-violently, but firmly and continually. Where would they get enough
jails to hold us all? How would they prosecute hundreds of thousands?
It is far more than the government can do to even stop the flow of illegal
drugs, despite their best efforts, and overcrowded jails. Hardened
criminals walk after doing only half of their sentence to ease jail
crowding. Even if they try to pick on a handful to make examples of them,
what if hundreds of thousands stood up to the tyranny of the minority and
demanded their freedom
of religion back? They can't build enough jails or courts to begin to deal
with such a movement.
During the Civil Rights battles of the 60's, some of the black people
decided they had had enough and stood up to the system-a few dozen here, a
few hundred there-and eventually the whole country heard, and repented,
and changed.
Racial repression was an evil whose time was over. But now, there is
another battle--and the stakes are even higher. The future of all
children, white, black, and otherwise, is at stake. No other country on
earth allows a tiny minority of impractical anti-religious bigots to
censor their people's right to free religious expression. Even Russian
public schools show videos of the life and teachings of Jesus now. We tend
to get exactly the kind of government we deserve.
If you make a time line or a graph, you will see that the exponential
increase in public school violence, pregnancy, and foul language all
started at exactly the time the Supreme Court threw prayer and Bible
reading out of the schools. We told God we didn't need Him, and the
results speak for themselves.
JUST SUPPOSE hundreds of Christians passed this message on to all their
friends, leaders, and contacts.
JUST SUPPOSE hundreds of churches, organizations and ministries passed
this message on to their constituencies with a request to reprint, repost,
and repeat it wherever possible.
Once upon a time the Church was the moral conscience and spiritual
lighthouse of the nation. Now, most congregations are impotent,
pusillanimous minor-league social welfare agencies or mutual comfort
societies with no impact on the world around their little enclave.
JUST SUPPOSE -- What do you suppose you should do?
YOU MAY NOT KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS, BUT KNOWING WHO HOLDS THE FUTURE
MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE.
