When was the last time you heard an Election Sermon. No - NOT a sermon preached in a church building to a congregation about being a good citizen. An election sermon is preached before the civil magistrate or in the case here in America before our public servants. It is preached IN the public's building where the business of governance takes place. It is a minister or representative of God Himself appearing in the civil "temple" to proclaim the truth about the nature of God, the nature of man, the purpose and nature of civil government and to instruct citizen and governor alike concerning what is required for their faithful obedience to God in the execution of their office which is a sacred trust.
We sent each statewide officeholder and candidate a personal invitation to this event. Approximately eighty citizens attended this NOT a partisan political sermon. We brought before the ministers of the civil realm and their fellow citizens the very Word of God as it applies to their offices so that they may be rightly informed of the duties they each owe to Almighty God and their fellow citizens who are ALL subjects of his government.
All government is religious - - the only question is: Which religion will it be
