The church is the best of friends to a benevolent government and the worst of enemies to a tyrannical one.\xa0During the COVID-19 pandemic, Pastor Josh McPherson had no choice to but to oppose the lockdowns in his home state of Washington,\xa0where he says the abortion centers\xa0stayed open but it was \u201cillegal to sing in church for months.\u201d Pastor McPherson,\xa0who preaches at a non-denominational church,\xa0believes it's\xa0time to bring biblical\xa0teaching beyond the first\xa0century and\xa0recognize that the word of God has something to say about\xa0\u201csex, money, power, and politics\u201d\xa0in 2024.\xa0For too long the state\xa0and "Big Gov"\xa0have stepped into the lane\xa0of the church, and pastors have stayed silent. But Pastor McPherson says the Bible\xa0and Jesus Christ\u2019s teachings\xa0do not require us to submit\xa0to an evil government and that anyone who thinks\xa0we must submit\xa0to every dictate of our politicians has not\xa0studied their Bible OR their\xa0U.S. Constitution:\xa0\u201cIf there\u2019s cowardice in the pulpits, there\u2019ll be evil in the streets.\u201d As America continues to be smacked down by rising inflation,\xa0government overreach, the\xa0gender debate, and\xa0an invasion of migrants creating a crisis on our southern border, Pastor McPherson says it is\xa0time to ask: \u201cDoes the Bible have anything to say about the clown show we are living\xa0in?\u201d\xa0\xa0\n\xa0\nSponsors:\xa0\nRelief Factor: See how Relief Factor can help you get out of pain.
