In its June decision on Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, the Supreme Court ruled in the bakery’s favor, saying that the “Commission’s hostility was inconsistent with the First Amendment’s guarantee that our laws be applied in a manner that is neutral toward religion.”
 
Shortly after that victory, I posted an epilogue piece on the Masterpiece story. Owner Jack Phillips was grateful and relieved that the vindictive lawsuit against his bakery had finally been settled and was looking forward to having his normal life back… Well – not so fast, say the merciless progressives in Denver.
 

Now it’s important to note that it wasn’t actually the original homosexual customers who sued Masterpiece; they just apparently went elsewhere for their “wedding” cake. It was the state of Colorado who decided, in totalitarian fashion, that they would decide what Jack would and wouldn’t do. And now they’re at it again.
 
Alliance Defending Freedom handled Jack’s case the first time, and they’re back in this new battle as well ~

Despite the Supreme Court ruling in his favor, Colorado cake artist faces new threats ~
The same day that the Supreme Court announced that it would hear Jack’s case in the summer of 2017, local attorney Autumn Scardina called Jack’s shop and requested a blue-and-pink cake celebrating a gender transition.
 
While Jack serves every person who walks through the door of Masterpiece Cakeshop, he cannot use his artistic talents to celebrate every event or express every message. That was true in the Masterpiece case, and it’s still true now.
 
But that has never been enough for the State of Colorado.

 
This time around ADF is going on the offensive and suing the state on Jack’s behalf ~

Colorado’s anti-Christian hostility is showing itself yet again. The state has doubled down on its unconstitutional effort to punish people of faith. Jack just wants his life back. For six years, he fought for the right to run his business consistently with his faith. And just when he thought it was possible to go back to normal, the government is threatening him again.

 
In this video from CBN Jack and his attorney speak with about the latest assault on his First Amendment rights ~
 

Unfortunately, as I predicted back in June after the SCOTUS ruling ~

Usually when progressives are faced with something they perceive as a setback to their radical ideological agenda – like this SCOTUS decision – they double-down on the vitriol, hate and deceit. So we should brace for renewed attacks. And let’s keep praying!

 
Clearly Jack and his family still need our prayers! You can also sign a statement of support – and contribute to the cause HERE.
