The Series of Personal Testimonies, #5: Where Is Justice & Education?
America’s Death Will Only Come From Within
All of us violate regulations, codes, or laws each day, from a simple speed limit to laws we do not even know exist. The State of California has 13 large volumes of educational codes—most states only have one volume, and between local, state, and federal laws, not counting all the special government agencies, it is impossible to know and obey all the laws.
I have a good friend who is a judge. He is honorable, smart, a hard worker, and takes his job seriously, but those are not his best qualities. He is a committed family man; he cares about his wife and children, he is kind, loves to laugh, and most of all, a true Christian. That is not always the case for many people who write, enforce, and/or interpret the laws that govern America.
Earl W. Warren is one person who personifies how one’s character can influence a nation either for good or bad. He was a progressive, politically driven attorney general, a governor, and a Supreme Court Justice. He ruled often against anything that was Christian in nature. He wanted nothing to do with religion or God. If you would ask local Kern County residents who murdered his father, they would not hesitate to tell you that it was his son, Earl, and he got away with it.
Earl Warren with his passion against anything that has ties to Christianity undermined centuries of laws and the foundational beliefs of our Founding Fathers. He destroyed the educational system in America single handedly and put into place aspects of judicial thinking that has chipped away at constitutional common sense.
Henry Blackaby stated, in a Legal Conference at Focus of the Family in Colorado Springs in the 80’s, “Do not concern yourself with what Washington is doing but what God is doing!” He was speaking to an audience of judges, attorneys, clerks of the court and one lone superintendent—me. His concern was our relationship with Christ. It is that relationship alone that makes the difference in a courtroom, a state, or a nation. His stories were powerful and convincing. (If you have not read the book, The Man God Uses you need too.)
Our schools have been failing since the ruling of Brown v. Board of Education, and other educational cases Earl Warren presided over during his term as Supreme Court Justice. No matter what we do, laws we pass, money we throw at our school systems they keep getting worse. America went from the best and highest rated schools and universities in the world at the beginning of the 60’s to among the worst in the world in so many categories.
Do not be fooled, God is not mocked. God notices everything, and He cares about what leaders at all levels of our government do from Presidents to Mayors; from School Superintendents to custodial staff; from Justices to court clerks. When God is ruled against in the implementation, interpretation, or writing of laws, God merely walks away. He leaves the people or institutions to themselves—to failure.
Warning #5: God judges nations not just on the sin of its people but also on the rulings/decisions of its leaders (Book of Proverbs).
