Oh let the Son of God and found you with his spirit and his love,

let him fill your heart and will satisfy your soul.

Oh, let him have the things that hold you

and his spirit like a dove will descend upon your life and make you

home.

Welcome to the Word for today,

featuring the Bible Teaching of Pastor Chuck Smith,

founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a verse by verse study through the entire

Bible. And on today's edition of the Word for today, Pastor Chuck continues with the breeding

ground of corruption as we pick up in 2nd Samuel chapter 23 verse 3 and now with

today's message here's pastor Chuck.

Oh if I could only live in the country, oh if I could only move up into Central California,

into one of those little country towns, where things are so clean and pure and all.

I have a friend who took the position of Chief of Police

in one of these nice little country towns in Central California.

And he's having a terrible time

with the corrupt politicians who are trying to tell him who he can arrest and who he can't arrest.

Certain things, crimes going on in town,

just to overlook those completely.

If there are certain people in town that park their cars in the wrong place,

they're not to get ticketed.
