The IRS and Johnson Amendment

from Elisha's Bears: Exploring Faith, Baptists, and the Bible · host Danny Chisholm

There are many implications relating to the IRS's decision not to enforce the Johnson Amendment, which prohibits churches from endorsing political candidates. Pastor Danny talks about the potential consequences of this shift, including the risk of churches becoming politically partisan and losing their spiritual integrity. The church must be careful to focus on its mission of spreading the gospel rather than get caught up in political endorsements. Pastors should guard their prophetic voice and promote the true source of hope, who is Jesus Christ.
