The recent Supreme Court ruling and the Church


Scott Brown of the NCIFC has written an article entitled: How the American Church Paved the Way for ObamaCare.

As the church has handed over more and mroe of its responsibility to the state should we really be surprised by what has happened?

Scott says:

"The United States Government has done it again! With the recent Supreme Court validation of ObamaCare, it has usurped the role of individual citizens to care for themselves and will punish them through taxation if they try. The “Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave” has taken another giant leap towards the “land of the oppressed and home of the coward.” However, hope for America does not depend on Republican control of the White House and Congress, but instead in the rising awakening of churches and families to stand up for truth and right in our land.

First, let’s examine what just happened. The Supreme Court’s validation of the Affordable Care Act can seem confusing, but it boils down to a simple fact. Under the Constitution, Congress cannot compel you to buy something, but it can tax you for not complying. Passing this law means that the Court creatively justified something that is wrong in principle. They used the Constitution to abuse the Constitution.

But all of this is nothing new!

Government healthcare is logically consistent with our headlong sprint toward socialism in America. We are systematically surrendering every personal responsibility………. read the rest of the article."
