IRS Gives Pass to Churches, More Pastors Speak Out

www.LC.org

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has officially reported what Liberty Counsel has been saying all along: The IRS is not auditing churches because it does not have the authority to take away churches’ tax-free status.

For years, leftist groups, such as Americans United for the Separation of Church and State (AU), have used deception and fear tactics to censor the church and muzzle pastors.

An IRS spokesman said last week that the agency has been inundated with complaints, but they are not going to do any audits because they do not have the authority to do so. Churches are tax-exempt inherently. They don’t need a letter from the IRS to be tax exempt, so their tax-exempt status cannot be taken away by the IRS.

More pastors have been involved this year than ever before, even pastors who have been silenced in the past. Rev. Billy Graham is running full-page advertisements in a number of newspapers across the country. John MacArthur, a well-known pastor and author, who was against Christian political activism, has had a dramatic change of heart. “This is a new day in our country. Parties that used to differ on economics, now differ dramatically on issues that invade the realm of God’s law and morality,” said MacArthur in a recent Sunday morning sermon.

Please pray that more pastors replace the muzzle with a megaphone and speak out on these important issues.
