History of the Black Robe Regiment The battle for free speech in America"s pulpits has taken a significant turn with the IRS finally acknowledging what courageous pastors have known all along – the constitutional right to speak biblical truth, even when it intersects with politics. Pastor Jack Hibbs joins the conversation to share why this decision, while welcome, simply confirms what should have been obvious: pastors derive their authority from Scripture, not government permission. "I don"t need the government to tell me to do this, that, or the other. I take my marching orders from the Word," Hibbs declares, cutting to the heart of pastoral responsibility. The COVID pandemic served as a powerful litmus test, revealing which religious leaders prioritized biblical principles over governmental compliance. Churches that remained steadfast in their commitment to gather and worship saw tremendous growth as believers sought authentic spiritual leadership during unprecedented times. While the IRS ruling removes a formal barrier, the deeper question remains whether pastors who have been reluctant to address contentious issues will now find the courage to fulfill their biblical mandate. As the Wall Builders team discusses, true righteousness is characterized by boldness – being "bold as a lion" according to Proverbs 28:1. This isn"t primarily about endorsing candidates but speaking clearly on issues where Scripture provides unambiguous guidance: the sanctity of life, biblical sexuality, religious liberty, and other moral imperatives facing our society. The episode also highlights exciting developments in constitutional living, including the establishment of "Constitution City" in Texas and the growth of Hibbs" "Real Life Network" – a cancel-proof platform providing biblically-based content to audiences worldwide. Both initiatives demonstrate how the principles of faith and freedom can move from theory to practice in building resilient communities and communication channels that withstand cultural pressure. What will you do with your freedom to speak truth? Will you support pastors who courageously address the moral issues of our time? The battle for America"s soul continues, and the pulpit remains a crucial battlefield where truth must prevail. Support the show
