Divine Decrees and Moral Law Stand Apart From Vote

The article argues that God’s decrees are eternal and valid regardless of public endorsement. It notes that secularisers seek to legalise condemned behavior, cites France’s downfall from rejecting religious sanctions, and reports local church news: Mrs Laurie's illness improving, Mr Farley recovering, and a quiet wedding at the Presbyterian Church. It also mentions the Laur ie Memorial Hall Christmas Tree and Fair and upcoming Sunday School exams for the Gangat children.
