Volunteer chaplains in North Carolina's Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department have been told not to use Jesus' name in prayers at public events held on government property.
Pastor Terry Sartain of Horizon Christian Fellowship told FOX News Radio he was informed of the change by his superior major just before he was about to give a invocation at a promotion ceremony.
'I was told chaplains can no longer invoke the name of Jesus on government property,' Mr Sartain said.
'[He said] if I could refrain from that during the invocation he would appreciate that.'
Mr Sartain said he was upset by the new rules.
'I'm very sad about it,' he continued.

Okay, but is he upset enough to ignore this new "rule"??? Is he upset enough to stand up to tyranny.
ReplyDeleteHe said he wouldn't do it anymore.
ReplyDeleteWill the real men with real spines please stand up!!!!
ReplyDeleteNo problem. He and/or the rest of the clergy will figure out a way to shut up and comply. Romans 13.
ReplyDeleteThe thing to do is ignore the request and just stand there saying the word "Jesus" over and over again and force them to stop you and haul you out of the room in handcuffs, while your friends catch it on cellphone cameras and post it on Youtube.
ReplyDeleteWhat happens when the government owns all the property?
