BULLETIN FOR SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 2014

Welcome to FEA where we are holding forth the Word of life.
May the life of God come into your heart and world today.

We are currently in the political season. I recently read an article in Christianity Today that informed me how the Internal
Revenue Service (IRS) has agreed to investigate the political activity of churches. This decision was made after reaching a settlement with the Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRF). However, a court has yet to decide whether or not to close the case. These parties have jointly asked a Wisconsin federal court recently to dismiss a 2012 lawsuit in which the FFRF had alleged that the IRS failed to have a policy in place for investigating political activity at tax-exempt churches and religious organizations. The FFRF had also accused the IRS of not enforcing its 501(c)(3) codes against electioneering.

“We’re pleased with this development in which the IRS has proved to our satisfaction that it now has in place a protocol to enforce its own anti-electioneering provisions,” said FFRF co-president Annie Laurie Gaylor in a press release.

However, regardless of the court’s final decision, the IRS won’t be free to investigate churches until a moratorium related to the agency’s controversial scrutiny of tea party organizations is lifted after a congressional investigation closes.

But it is amazing the kinds of restrictions that are being placed on churches today. Who would know best what God is saying about the political direction of a country than the Church. The Devil just wants to keep the Church silent. But he is a liar.
