JUST SUPPOSE
By Dr. Hoyt W. Allen, Jr.
The following article came to me recently and I contended that I should pass it
on. It has been slightly edited and a conclusion added.
JUST SUPPOSE that at every ball game, field-trip, graduation, etc., someone who
has had enough of stupid, anti historical court decisions had the courage to
start reciting the Lord's Model Prayer loudly, and others joined in, then more,
until hundreds participated.
JUST SUPPOSE this spread all over our land until this became standard practice
in hundreds of schools-then thousands then tens of thousands.
Just what would local school boards do? Expel half the student body? (They need
their jobs and federal funding far too much to do that.)
What would a Federal district court do? Order hundreds of nonviolent, decent
minors jailed? Or thousands? Just what would the Supreme Court do about it -
issue more rules & regulations? What if millions decided the Supreme Court was
out of its league and said, "So what?"
JUST SUPPOSE hundreds of brave school board members, local judges, prosecutors,
and others, each in their own area of authority, refused to intervene, realizing
that we have already tried it the other way, and the result was a modern-day
Sodom and Gomorrah of immorality and senseless violence.
JUST SUPPOSE this then spread next into classroom after classroom, and either a
brave student or a brave teacher started the Lord's Model Prayer, or a Bible
reading, etc., each morning, until hundreds of thousands stood up and did their
part and stopped cowering before the destructive, God-hating secular attitudes
of the pagan minority who parrot the media line.
JUST SUPPOSE every God-fearing Christian participated--peacefully, nonviolently,
but firmly and continually. Where would they get enough jails to hold us all?
How would they prosecute hundreds of thousands?
It is far more than the government can do to even stop the flow of illegal

drugs, despite their best efforts, and overcrowded jails. Hardened criminals
walk after doing only half of their sentence to ease jail crowding. Even if they
try to pick on a handful to make examples of them, what if hundreds of thousands
stood up to the oppression of the minority and demanded their freedom of
religion back? They can't build enough jails or courts to begin to deal with
such a movement.
During the Civil Rights battles of the 1960's, some of the black people
decided they had enough and stood up to the system -- a few dozen here, a few
hundred there -- and eventually the whole country heard, and repented, and
changed. Racial suppression was an evil whose time was over.
But now, there is another battle--and the stakes are even higher.
The future of all children, red, yellow, black, and white is at stake. No other
country on earth allows a tiny minority of impractical,
anti-religious bigots to censor their people's right to free religious
expression. Even Russian public schools show videos of the life and teachings of
Jesus now. We tend to get exactly the kind of government we deserve.
If you make a time line or a graph, we see that the increase in public school
violence, pregnancy, and foul language all started at exactly the time the
Supreme Court threw prayer and Bible reading out of the schools. We told God we
didn't need Him, and the results speak for themselves.
JUST SUPPOSE hundreds of Christians passed this message on to all their friends,
leaders, hundreds of churches, organizations and ministries.
Once upon a time the Church was the moral conscience and spiritual lighthouse of
the nation. Now, it is time to once again rise up.
Plainly, don’t get short changed. Let’s be ready to meet our Maker. The Bible
teaches that to avoid hell and gain heaven - one must:
1) Believe In Jesus As Savior (16:31) 2) Repent Of Sins (17:30)
3) Confess Christ Audibly (8:37) 4) Be Baptized In Water (2:38)
5) Live A Christian Life (14:22) 6) Be Active In the Church (2:47)
