LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Standards to measure by

Will this promise hold?

Dear Editor,

We have a standard that we all go by for time, distance, volume, weight, numbers and currency. As long as everyone is in agreement with our standards, we have unity with no confusion or confrontation.

Some may not agree with our standards and try to change them to the metric system and that will bring division: any change to our standards will result in division: also a disobedience to our Bible or Constitution will upset our society and our nation has been upset since the founding of the United Nations in 1947.

Ungodliness has a progressive nature because we just gave Satan a foothold to gain more ground within the USA. The graduates from 1975 and up were never taught about Jesus in our Government schools. Our weak, spineless cowards that have a position in our government will not come out and promote Jesus as the only Savior for all of mankind.

Now, this administration is bringing us back to standard and the God haters are screaming out lies by saying it is unconstitutional and they are the ones that are unconstitutional, and many things they did were unconstitutional and they don’t want it exposed.

Every good gift and perfect gift comes from God, but the God haters want to twist it so it will bring about division. If the general public at large knew the bible and our constitution we would have unity, peace, happiness and prosperity because we could know who our enemies are and who is working for the American people.

I do not debate what some think is BEST for us, only what is right or wrong based upon the teaching of our bible and the constitutions, these two standards are what we go by.

PASTOR CURTIS MITCHELL
