(In response to Houston’s sermon subpoenas in mid October 2014)
When the mayor of a large American city so violates religious liberty, all moral men must speak out. They must speak in the broadest realm possible to them.
Houston’s sermon subpoenas set a precedent for totalitarian dictatorship. The chief sign of such a dictatorship? Censorship. May every pastor in our country decry this injustice.
Is justice not a proper subject for a sermon? Choose to speak the truth now. You cannot protect your platform by refusing to use it.
