Why That Southern Baptist Minister Supports Fred Thompson

Comments Off

December 5, 2007 by Tyson Wynn

Scott Foshie, Associate Pastor of Bear Cove Baptist Church in Sparta, Tennessee, says thus in his endorsement of FDT.

The reason that America has, and continues to be, a spiritual light to the rest of the world is not because our government has forced Christianity on the people. It is because our nation is founded on religious freedom, and free people in the Church have taken the Gospel throughout this country and around the world. The vast majority of our Founding Fathers were believers in Jesus Christ and leaders in their churches. That is why it was so important to them that, as they founded this country, they made sure to protect Christianity by protecting religious freedom.

***

I don’t expect my President to preach the Gospel while in office. I do expect him to protect my freedom to share Jesus with others and to let the Church do its job without interference from the government. With his commitment to Federalism, Fred Thompson has shown he is the best man to lead from the Presidency to protect religious freedom. He would help to ensure that all Americans, including evangelical Christians, would continue enjoying the protection that makes this country a spiritual light to the rest of the world.

What he said. I agree wholeheartedly. Go read it all!
