No one is above the law

A spokesman for a religious group that was closed for an alleged scam quipped that the government, the SEC and NBI were mistaken in closing their church as being above the law...The spokesman is mistaken because the religious group may be beyond the realm of the law, but the illegal activities are not.  And Romans 13:3 is clear that God is behind all righteous government. That is the basis of all good governments

Thus even a religious group can not be above the law... if its activities patently disobeys the laws of men.
