How about is there any particular holiday celebration for Christmas or anything of that nature?
SPEAKER_00:Big, beautiful, bull or a few words to describe what's ahead. Other words like solid, honest, and also special come to mind. In truth, it's more likely peace-loving, kind, and self-sacrificing. Yes, we're talking about the creation of poor boxes at Christmas time in defiance of the state of Washington. Contrary to King County prosecutors of Seattle, Washington, some disciples of Jesus disregard Judge Lori K. Smith's disdain for the good. Let's consider how to make poor boxes.

SPEAKER_02:How about was there any particular holiday celebration for Christmas or anything of that nature?
SPEAKER_01:A holy Christmas undermined by prosecution. Poor box persecution. Matthew 5, 11 through 12. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. In Washington State, specifically in Seattle's King County Courts, Judge Lori K. Smith, who is foolishly arrogant about being voted two times by her peers as woman of the year, alongside prosecutors and police, subjected the Sound Doctrine Church to a rigorous, rights-denied 28-day trial. During this time, King County courts distorted, vilified, and misrepresented every truth. Indeed, what prosecutors called evidence was absolutely unrelated and opposed to the charges against a church member. The primary grotesque legal corruption is that Washington State was using groomed charges to take down a righteous Christian church. The alleged evidence of a crime presented in court stemmed in part from how the church, under Pastor Williams' leadership, celebrated Christmas. The church's initiative to create, design, and decorate poor boxes was maligned as cult-like. Keep in mind, true to the congregation's inviting nature, the church welcomed everyone, regardless of membership, to participate in Christmas preparations throughout the year. Individuals could witness the joy and engage with families and friends of the church while crafting these poor boxes. The excitement and joy are sorely missed since King County prosecutors destroyed the church and were run out of town by the city of Enum Claw. Be warned that if your church is righteous and loving, even designing poor boxes and gathering coins for the poor may be prosecuted. Nevertheless, here are the steps involved in making a poor box. Step one, start with an old oatmeal cardboard container. Note, any type of box or container will work, as this is not some type of cult-like order coming down from leadership. Step two, use construction paper, glue, glitter, and stickers to decorate the outside of the poor box. Step three, cut a slot in the top of the box to allow coins or dollars to be added throughout the year. That is, if Governor Bob Ferguson, the Washington State Supreme Court, and the Democrats have not already taken all your cash, coins, and children from you. Step four, throughout the year, children and adults collect their spare change and deposit it in the box. It is holy money set aside for the Lord's will. Thus, no one takes any money from the poor box during the year. This refusal to take any money out was not out of fear of hell, as prosecutors slandered during the trial, but out of love and joy for all that God has done. Step five. At the end of the year, around Christmas time, all the collected money is poured into a single bucket and donated to the less fortunate or a worthy cause. Not a single dime or penny was retained by Sound Doctrine Church. The perverse accusations against the church came despite the noble intentions behind these efforts. As prosecutor Jason Simmons and Judge Laurie K. Smith misrepresented the righteousness that Sound Doctrine Church embraced, representing such lunacy logic as evidence in order to mislead a jury to destroy a church devoted to good, holiness, and righteousness. Let us pray for these individuals to repent. For as God warns in Isaiah 5 20, woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
