How dare they?
How dare Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist bring his partisan message into the churches? How dare he bring his words into a house of worship as if his words were the words of God?
How dare the church leaders allow a government message to be viewed by their congregation, knowing Jesus fought hard to avoid all government and political connections? How dare these church leaders use Gods house for their own person/political gain?
They are no better than the false prophets Isaiah spoke of or the Pharisees Jesus spoke to when he said, "You Pharisees clean the outside of cups and dishes, but inside you are full of greed and evil, you fools."
How dare the congregations not stand up and shout, "My Fathers house is a house of worship, a house of prayer, but you have turned it into a gathering place for thieves, and God sees what you are doing"?
People, we need to open our eyes - or are we too blind to see? We need to open our ears - or are we to deaf too hear? Do Isaiahs prophecies still hold true today?
"These people worship me with their mouths and honor me with their lips. But their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is pointless because their teachings are rules made by humans."
How dare they?
