A Bulwark Against Sunday Laws?

[Bravus]

If Ben Carson *does* accept the role of Secretary of Education, there should be one voice against Sunday laws high up in the government.

Really? Don't know what he might or might not be for considering his performance in the election process.

I thought Ben would be up for surgeon general.  But of course he has this 501c3 to educationally benefit good students.  

I have made no observation of Ben Carson that would lead me to believe he could influence the government in the area of  National Sunday Laws. God can use anyone who is willing.

The presidential cabinet or advisers are not involved in passing national laws, that is the area of congress.

below is from  https://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/cabinet

"The tradition of the Cabinet dates back to the beginnings of the Presidency itself. Established in Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, the Cabinet's role is to advise the President on any subject he may require relating to the duties of each member's respective office.

The Cabinet includes the Vice President and the heads of 15 executive departments — the Secretaries of Agriculture, Commerce, Defense, Education, Energy, Health and Human Services, Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development, Interior, Labor, State, Transportation, Treasury, and Veterans Affairs, as well as the Attorney General."

The Surgeon General of the United States is the operational head of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps (PHSCC) and thus the leading spokesperson on matters of public health in the federal government of the United States. The Surgeon General's office and staff are known as the Office of the Surgeon General (OSG).

The U.S. Surgeon General is nominated by the President of the United States and confirmed by the Senate. The Surgeon General serves a four-year term of office and, depending on whether or not the current Assistant Secretary for Health is a PHSCC commissioned officer, is either the senior or next most senior uniformed officer of the PHSCC, holding the rank of a vice admiral.^[1][2] The current Surgeon General is Vivek Murthy, who was confirmed on December 15, 2014.^[3]

The Surgeon General reports to the Assistant Secretary for Health (ASH), who may be a four-star admiral in the United States Public Health Service, Commissioned Corps (PHSCC), and who serves as the principal adviser to the Secretary of Health and Human Services on public health and scientific issues. The Surgeon General is the overall head of the Commissioned Corps, a 6,500-member cadre of health professionals who are on call 24 hours a day, and can be dispatched by the Secretary of HHS or the Assistant Secretary for Health in the event of a public health emergency.

The Surgeon General is also the ultimate award authority for several public health awards and decorations, the highest of which that can be directly awarded is the Surgeon General's Medallion (the highest award bestowed by board action is the Public Health Service Distinguished Service Medal). The Surgeon General also has many informal duties, such as educating the American public about health issues and advocating healthy lifestyle choices.

There will be no national (or world-wide) Sunday Law.  The end of time issue will be about WHO we worship - the God of heaven or the "gods" of earth; not what day we choose to worship.  That is unless Islam takes over the planet - then there will be Friday Laws.

I agree that he will be "one" voice against that, but that's exactly what it will be, one voice!
