Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. HEB 11 v 1 & 6

Two people had this same verse on their minds on sunday.
Isaiah 57 V 15 ” for this is what the high & lofty One says- he who lives forever, whose name is holy: “I Live in a high & holy place,  BUT also with him who is contrite & lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly & to revive the heart of the contrite”

PS 34:1
I will extol the LORD at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.

How would you feel if it was up to the government to decide what religious view you were allowed to express?
The “Defamation of Religions Resolution” has been tabled at the UN by certain countres and if passed will allow governments the power to determine which religious views can and can’t be expressed & give the right to punish “unacceptable views”. ie LEGAL Persecution!!
