There is no such thing as “Separation of Church and State,” not in the U.S. Constitution, or in practice!  The U.S. Constitution never separates “church and state.”  In practice, though, the Federal Government has used “faith-based charities” for years to accomplish some of their programs.  In Tennessee, Catholic Charities administer the Federal program of immigrant resettlement.  Why can pulpits be used to endorse government plans, while the government smothers any influence from “the faith?”  “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them” (Romans 1:18-19).  No government prospers while willfully ignorant of God.  Governments collapse with no faith to hold it up! - July 12, 2021

QUESTION: How can a Christian respond to false charges? - February 21, 2021   

ANSWER: Since this is not a new problem, let the Apostle Peter instruct us in 1 Peter 2:15. 

1. Let our good conduct make them liars!  (1 Peter 2:11-12) 

2. Remember the Example of Jesus (1 Peter 2:21-23, quoting Isaiah 53:9). 

3. Do not become like them, with false charges   (1 Peter 3:8-9) ... Read More of this and other QA in Questions Answered.

“Now a great many of the Jews knew that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead. But the chief priests plotted to put Lazarus to death also, because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus” (John 12:9-11). Living Lazarus was proof Jesus had the power of God over death. One day, when He calls for everyone, “all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth” (John 5:28-29). “Religious leaders” sought to tamper with the evidence, that is, “put Lazarus to death.” Those who refuse to accept truth may try destroying the evidence, censorship, or propaganda, none of which changes the truth but simply exposes those who serve Satan.
