Wasilla Assembly of God – Statement on Sarah Palin

September 8, 2008 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

Statement of Wasilla Assembly of God Church on Sarah Palin

 

August 30th, 2008

Governor Sarah Palin did attend Wasilla Assembly of God since the time she was a teen ager. She and her family were a part of the church up until 2002. Since that time she has maintained a friendship with Wasilla Assembly of God and has attended various conferences and special meetings here. This June, the Governor spoke at the graduation service of our School of Ministry, Master’s Commission Wasilla Alaska.

We have had some inquires into Governor Palin’s beliefs. We do know that Gov Palin is a woman of integrity. She is a servant of the people, she is a strong leader. As for her personal beliefs, Governor Palin is well able to speak for herself on those issues.

As Alaskans we are excited about our Governor being selected as the nominee for Vice President. As residents of Wasilla, we are ecstatic about one of our own being thrust to the national forefront. However, as a church, it is not appropriate for us to endorse any one candidate over another. As believers, we are reminded in 1 Peter 2.13 that we are to submit to those in authority. 1 Timothy 2.1-2 tells us pray for those in authority. This we will do no matter who is elected. We wish the best to Governor Palin, and Senator McCain, as well as to Senator Obama and Senator Biden.

May God continue to bless America.

Bio of Pastor Ed Kalnins (from the church’s web site)

Pastor Ed Kalnins came to Alaska from New Jersey in July 1999 to be the Senior Pastor at Wasilla Assembly of God. As a young man at Arizona State University he received Jesus through the ministry of Phoenix First Assembly of God. When Phoenix First launched the world’s first Master Commission, Pastor Ed and his soon to be bride Robin were among the first students, and were discipled by the great soul winner, Tommy Barnett. In the twenty years since then, Pastor Ed and Robin have served in Florida, Wisconsin and New Jersey as youth pastors, church planters, associate pastors and interim senior pastors. They have seven beautiful children, Devin, Gayla, Gerrit, Wade, Leah, their Alaskan Easter Weekend baby, Anya, and the newest addition: Brent..

Pastor Ed’s life is reflected in Wasilla Assembly of God’s guiding principle: Know God, Make Him Known. While the message is sacred, the method of communicating that message isn’t. Using every tool available, Jesus must be shown to the world. Pastor Ed believes part of his role as Senior Pastor is to equip the people and the leaders of the church to do the work of the ministry and release them into their God given destiny.
In March 0f 2006, Pastor Ed went from just Pastor, to iPastor, by accquiring a video iPod.

Statement on the Leak in Dobbs

The leak was intended to disrupt the processing of the decision and we are not going to dignify the leak or the unidentified leaker by analyzing it prematurely. As a constitutional republic we cannot go down that road without doing severe damage to the institution of the Supreme Court where there must be professional courtesy between the justices and their staffs.

It is wonderful how much time good people spend fighting the devil. If they would only expend the same amount of energy loving their fellow men, the devil would die in his own tracks of ennui.
