Kudos to Rev. Williams. There are very few citizens out there who dare challenge the tax tyrants.

BTW the unbiblical and immoral state of the tax structure was a common sermon topic prior to the Revolution.

Black “pastors” have gotten away with this for decades...and everyone knows it.

The IRS will lose on this one.

Churches should not file as 501-3c anyway.

Brings them under government regulation.

By signing that form, the church implicitly agrees to being regulated by the government.

The pastor will simply have his 501-3c status revoked.

Donations made to the church he oversees will no longer be tax-deductible.

Any fiduciary contracts he made under 501-3c will be null and void.

"Why is it that I cannot walk with my Master, my Lord, in speaking on government issues?"

You can. But you can't endorse candidates while a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

If you don't like it, renounce the tax status of your church or reincorporate under a different tax status so you can say whatever you please. It's a pretty simple solution.
