Vision America Calls for Action to Oppose HR 1592
Hate Crimes Bill Will Criminalize Biblical Preaching And Remove The Blinders From Lady Justice
The so-called federal Hate Crimes Bill (HR 1592) has been fast-tracked in the House. A floor vote could come as early as next Tuesday (May 1).
The legislation has been called discriminatory – and it is. Worse, if enacted, it will be used to penalize preachers and is intended to silence the Church on the issue of homosexuality. What it will do, in fact, is not to silence true preachers of the Word — who will not be intimidated — but instead make them criminals.
It is imperative that we do all within our power to defeat this iniquitous bill. To contact your Congressman and urge him to vote against H.R. 1592, click here. To contact your Senators and ask them to vote against the companion bill (S 1105), click here.
On a personal note, when preaching that homosexuality is sin becomes illegal in America, I will become a law-breaker, for I will not cease preaching what the Bible teaches, on this or any other subject.
As an organization dedicated to mobilizing pastors to encourage Christians to be salt and light, Vision America will remain committed to this battle — for as long as it takes. To make a donation to Vision America’s ongoing activities, including our 70 Weeks To Save America Crusade, click here.
