Chesterfield, VA

 

Happily married to her husband, Harry, for 32 years with 3 children and one grandchild. Elaine has a Bachelors degree in Medical Technology from David Lipscomb University. She has worked part time for Patient First for 19 years as a Medical Technologist. She has been a Bible teacher to youth most of her adult life. Her passion, however, for the past 30 years has been her desire to see the holocaust of abortion come to an end. This has taken various forms of activism ranging from sidewalk counseling at abortion facilities, involvement in numerous political campaigns, to networking with pastors. Elaine also serves as the coordinator for the National Day of Prayer in Chesterfield County.

When Tolerance is Intolerable  Or A Christian Response to Unjust Laws

I.  The purpose of government according to Scripture I Peter 2:14  to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right.

II.  Biblical directive to submit to the governing authorities

     Romans 13 and I Peter 2:13-14

III.  Peter and John refuse to submit to the governing body of the Sanhedrin Acts 4:1-20 

       and again in Acts 5:28-29.

       1.  Other examples of Biblical heroes who refused to submit to governing authorities:

            a.    Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego  Daniel 3: 1-20      

            b.    Rahab  Joshua 2:1-22

            c.    Hebrew midwives  Exodus 1:15-22

 

    Commonality among these examples:  they were all told to do something that violated God’s law.    

 

IV. Does this still happen?

  1. Slavery 

       2.  Abortion, assisted suicide, euthanasia, embryonic stem cell destruction

3.  Redefinition of marriage

       4.  Threat to religious liberties

About the Author

Virginia Christian Alliance
The mission of the VIRGINIA CHRISTIAN ALLIANCE is to promote moral, social and scientific issues we face today from a Biblical point of view. In addition we will refute and oppose, not with hate, but with facts and humor, the secular cultural abuses that have overridden laws and standards of conduct of the past. We will encourage Christians to participate in these efforts through conferences, development of position papers, booklets and tracts, radio/TV spots, newspaper ads and articles and letters-to-the editor, web sites, newsletters and providing speakers for church and civic meetings.
