A church without a tax exemption can lobby freely in government and can support political candidates, too.

Just something to think about ...

All organizations should be exempt from income tax, but made to pay local sales tax. They can lobby, they can campaign, they can do whatever they want.

“A church without a tax exemption can lobby freely in government and can support political candidates, too.”

Bingo! Years ago during the Clintoon/Monica mess, five of us learned that even conservative priests and pastors couldn’t preach about what was wrong or lose their tax free status.

Liberal priests/pastors on the other hand could say anything to support liberal laws and politicians due to liberal courts/judges.

It is even worse for our side years later.

So now they insist that churches teach what they want them to teach which is an abomination to God.


Yep ... and some day coming to all IRS 501-C3 tax-exempt churches in America.

Don't blame me ... I'm just the messenger.

Questions ?

Muster up the courage to do the free IRS download of "Pamplet P1828" which specifies the legal details of your tax-exempt church's sertitude to it's U.S. Government Masters.

Heck, I'll even do you the favor of providing the internet link:

THAT is 2-edged sword. Becareful for what you wish for liberals, if you take away the tax exempt status, churches can and will UNLOAD on you by fanning the seeds of your overthrow.

I don’t want churches to lose their tax-exempt status.
However, the loony Left will unleash a Holy Juggernaut when churches are able to lobby and speak politically!

If they are no longer tax exempt, does that affect whether they have to do gay marriages?

The Christian businesses that were persecuted under the homosexual discrimination laws were for-profit.
