To: Eccl 10:2
You seem to take things way out of context? I am sorry but you are extremely confused. Let me give you an example:

Romans 13:1 says: "Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God."

So, when the Nazis were the governing authorities, the Jews should have just laid back and the world should have done nothing? Dictators, oppresive regimes, etc...just submit?

I Cor 13:1: "If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

? Not even sure where you are going with this.

Also, it's a poor witness, a "noisy gong" and makes Christians look heartless to unbelievers.

I got news for you. Christians look heartless to many, regardless of what they do. There were people complaining about Christians wanting to go into Iraq and help assist starving people. After all, they may spread that vile religion. < / sarcasm>

The Christians should be the ones after this guy to stop it. IMHO, his efforts are not Biblical, and he should stop.

A 'JESUS IS LORD' SIGN IS NOT BIBLICAL? Okay.

This is why this guy is being asked to take down the sign. Because of people like you. My point was that the ACLU would have taken this case had it been about a PC arguement. Now, people in this thread are starting to attack Christian thought and values...in a mocking and condascending way...that is exactly why this guy is being forced to take down the sign. Did he break the law? Yep. Should he take it down? Doesn't have a choice. He isn't gay, trans, or black. Those people can change laws. People will support them. Christians cannot.

Do yourself a favor, don't quote scripture.

"Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s" Hmmm, what do you do when they are in conflict?

I know where Eccl was going with that...
