VICAR

Dear Readers of Country Squire Magazine, I trust that You are well and have overcome any General Election hangover. Those who have stayed in the country may well be wondering what happens next.

This week I’d like You to pray for the covetous, that they may see the wrong in their actions.

The Bible warns us many times about them:

Luke 12:15: “Beware of all covetousness; for a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” 

Exodus 20:17: “You shall not covet your neighbour’s house; you shall not covet your neighbour’s wife, or his male servant, or his female servant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbour’s.”

Mark 7:20-23: And he said, “What comes out of a person is what defiles him. For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.”

Surplus taxation is theft. let us hope that the new government understands this. Those who have worked for their money have earned it and do not deserve to be parted from it.

God bless You all. Have a great week ahead and hopefully We all survive the next five years.

God be with you, brethren; stop, ye thieves,
Robbers, murderers, horsemen and soldiers,
In all humility, for we have tasted
The rosy blood of Jesus.
Your rifles and guns will be stopped up with the
Holy blood of Jesus; and all swords and arms are made harmless
By the five holy wounds of Jesus.
There are three roses upon the heart of God;
The first is beneficent,
The other is omnipotent,
The third is his holy will.
You thieves must therefore stand under it,
Standing still as long as I will.
In the name of God the Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
You are commanded and made to stop! Amen
