PASTOR GENERAL'S
REPoRT
TO THE MINISTRY OF THE
WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD
PASADENA, CALIFORNIA
MR.
ATTORNEY GENERAL
OF CALIFORNIA:
The battle lines are drawn! Your
office launched a State vs. Church
lawsuit--to test the strength, power,
and the very existence of the Consti
tution of the United States.
by
Herbert W. Armstrong
JULY 25, 1980
THIS, MR. ATTORNEY GENEPAL, is a battle you can't win!
Realize it or not,
you have chosen to do battle against the living GOD! You have engaged in
an unconstitutional fight to take over, own, and operate (or destroy) God's
Holy Church--to run it by the will of politicians instead of the will of
GOD� God's Church belongs to GOD--and when you attack it you attack Al
miqhty GOD�
The giant Goliath once challenged the people of GOD. The soon-to-be
King David, then only a lad, said, "Who is this Philistine that he should
defy the living GOD?" The giant lost that battle--and his life!
Our forefathers came to America to escape religious persecution from
human government.
They established a Constitution whose first amendment
guarantees the religious liberty they fought, bled and died to secure for
us!
That Constitution shall stand inviolate! But even if we, as they,
had to flee to other countries for a base from which to spread God's TRUTH,
we would remove beyond your jurisdiction! There is NO WAY you can stop us!
This nation is becoming aware that your massive civil lawsuit actually
is the first REAL TEST of the freedom of CHURCH against political encroach
ments of STA.T�It--rs a battle to decide whether politicians of the STATE
can take over, own, and operate all CHURCHES according to political will
instead of the WILL OF GOD!
It is a political onslaught to determine once for all that the CHURCH
of the living GOD may be governed by HIM according as He directs through
His chosen ;;.postle, as revealed in His Word, the Holy Bible!
The GOVERNMENT OF GOD once existed over the earth--a fact unknown in
the world today. It exists today in only one place in the world--in GOD'S
CHuRCH!
