based ministries will be bound by all California
statutes and cases and by all Federal statutes and
U.S. Supreme Court and Ninth Circuit cases.
Out-of-state ministries are not bound by California
law, but may find the analysis of these laws helpful
in protecting their ministries. Federal statutes are
controlling nationwide as are U.S. Supreme Court
cases.
Everyone is subject to the
governing authorities. The authorities that exist are appointed
by God. Whoever resists authority resists the ordinance of God.
Romans 13:1-2
