Luke 21:12 “But before all this, they will lay hands on you and persecute you. They will deliver you to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name.
A painting of Jesus that has hung in a southern Ohio middle school for 65 years is being moved after complaints from the anti-Christian Freedom From Religion Foundation and the ACLU. However, much to the dismay of the anti-Christian forces, the painting is being moved to the high school.
Members of the Hi-Y club, who originally put up the picture in 1947, are moving the photo to the high school where their members currently attend and meet. The middle school originally was the high school for the school district.
The school refused to remove the picture despite the anti-Christian’s threats saying it was “student speech, not government speech” as the group paid for and installed the picture.
An advisor to the Hi-Y club said the group is going to keep the portrait up because it “represents the club and the Christian principles that the club values.”
A spokesman for the ACLU said they didn’t care what building the portrait was in, that they were going to do all they could to get rid of it.
