Letter: Death threats to our Supreme Court justices

Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in this letter to the editor are those of the author alone and may not reflect the editorial position of ClarkCountyToday.com

Here we go again, thinking that we are smarter than God, who created us, and again reaping the results of what we have sown, (planted), by not following His instructions. When God created us,

He knew we would be sinful, so He gave us His 10 Commandments to live by, telling us we would be blessed by Him if we would live by them. One of those commandments, "You Shall Not Kill" is in chapter 20 of the second book of the Bible, Exodus. In the next chapter, 21, verse 12, He says if anyone kills someone, the murderer, "Shall surely be put to death." What we have done in this matter, as in so many things, is that we think we are smarter than God, and do not need to do that. So now we have evil murderers threatening to kill our Supreme Court Justices, knowing that they can get away with it and won't have to die themselves. Galatians 6:7, says, "Do not be deceived, God is not mocked, for whatever a man plants, that he will also reap; if not in this life, in his eternal life.

Ecclesiastes 8:11, says, "Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the hearts of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.''

America, Repent or Perish!
