Love the Law

The other morning I saw a suburban squad car in the distance on the side of the road, with its pretty red and blue strobe lights flashing. Upon closer investigation, the wife and I observed and guessed that some car had slipped off the roadside into a ditch, and the tow truck was there in the process of taking it away.

"To Protect and To Serve" - is the written/printed motto on some police squad cars.

Long gone are "the good old days"(?) of The Wild West when each ranch settler, farmer, or town gambler had to carry a pistol sidearm on him, or a shotgun nearby, for self-and-family-protection to enforce his own particular version of "The Law" in the absence of any sparse federal marshals overseeing sheriffs and deputies allied with either good guys or bad guys or both.

Nowadays, a quick cellphone call to 911, then nervously chatting with a sometimes-overly-inquisitive, too-much-time-consuming-questions inferior-gender operator is the questionable replacement....but which usually is eventually followed by sometimes-too-late arrival of "the boys in blue with badges" who cautiously but courageously and promptly bravely barge in and on the scene.

They have their own version of "The Law" - and although such is ambiently or noticeably deemed irrelevant or "nitpicky" by many, it is generally agreed to and complied with....being that The Government is A Massive Hierarchy of Higher-Level-Upon-Higher-Level Authority which common-peasant citizens have little or no chance of successfully defying for long. The anti-Authority A.C.L.U. might not always agree, and do their damnest to convince people otherwise, and have taken it upon themselves to know how to legally confront police and sheriffs.

But, what are cops doing when they arrest people (typically for "the small stuff" - like expired license tabs, speeding, a headlight out, no seatbelt being worn, slight swerving, parking in front of a hydrant or mailbox or driveway, going through red stoplights or stopsigns, etc.)? Are they merely bothering people sadistically to show citizens how bossy they are and can be? Do they really care whether the near-mortal-sin infractions they spy on drivers for from within their semi-hidden sneaky non-marked vehicles....was done accidentally, or instead deliberately?

"Ignorance" [or PURPORTED "ignorance"] of [better yet: AGAINST] the Law is no excuse. "Oopsie" excuses are disregarded and simply do not matter. Hopefully, the cops are honest about REAL infractions, and not like racist Nazis who arrested people merely because of their Jewish ancestry.

Why would anyone want to become a "peace officer" or soldier, and thus engage in an occupation where physical force can be [and often is] used by them to cause people to suffer proportionate-to-the-crime punishment against whatever Law they have disobeyed and instead should have perfectly-enough ecstatically obeyed [or at least, grudgingly complied with]....as in the case of legalistically ticketing certain targeted for sliding through stop signs without coming to a complete stop?

In principle, laws are usually made by one or more sentient beings for other sentient beings. When laws are only made for onesself, they are merely considered "New Year's Resolutions" - disregard or violation against which is up to the individual to punish or not punish themself, however and whenever and to whatever extent they themselves decide.

Not only that, but typically, one sentient being is superior to the other sentient being in the creation and inception of whatever Law, Enforcement of that Law, and Punishment administered against the inferior sentient being who violates that Law.

That being said, both sentient beings (or groups of them) have either voluntarily or involuntarily united in a partnership involving whatever Law they both are completely aware of, or should adequately-enough be aware of.

Law made, applied, and enforced in accord with consensual freewill between two sentient beings or groups is the best, even though a superior sentient being formed the Law in the first place, congruent with whatever environmental parameters that superior sentient being formed and adjusted it for, both before the inferior sentient being became aware of it, and then consciously became subject to it.

Whether in the governmental structure of a dictatorship, democracy, parliamentary republic, or theocracy, cooperation of the non-human or instead human superior sentient being (whether titled or labeled the ruler, president, chief, king, prime minister, emperor, pope, commander, general, or God) with the inferior sentient being or beings, is essential to the stability of the involuntarily-or-instead-voluntarily established interactive (and maybe interdependent), contractual-in-effect, stability of whatever Government there is (and, correspondingly, the Law of that particular Government).

With human government, Law is mutually conceived, enacted, obeyed or disobeyed, enforced (with whatever types and severities for violators) by humans hopefully in general willful cooperation and agreement with each other.

With sentient humans relegated to the Divinely-sentient LORD, Theocratic Law [especially Judaic-Christian Law] was and is required by the Creator God who started it in Eden with simple Prime Directives of: "Multiply!" and: "Don't Eat From The Forbidden Tree" - yet who benignly did not force compliance with such Law [as we all, by now, are sadly aware of]...albeit did and does implement punishment for violation against such Law at that time, and newer parts of such added thereafter.

The continuation of whatever human Government, and Law thereof, is dependent upon both the will of the superior sentient being(s) and the inferior sentient being(s). If one human sentient being or group of them, decides, by haphazard or capricious or malicious [or, in contrast: enlightened] choice, for whatever reasons or at least cause, to try to change the Law without the consent of the other sentient human or humans, there usually is a dysfunctional disruption causing potentially-devastating partial or sometimes complete destabilization of such Government and Law thereof.

Such is the case with human-only Government pertaining to humans-only parties. It is NOT so in the situation of Government and Law created, incepted, administered, and enforced by that Superior-Sentient-Being known as: "Creator God" - whether the inferior sentient beings are SUPERNATURAL [e.g. Lucifer/Satan, demons, angels, whoever else in the heavenly realm] or with inferior sentient NATURAL beings [such as humans and lower lifeforms].

Such DIVINELY-incepted/administered/enforced THEOCRATIC Government and THEOCRATIC Law could, theoretically, become totally disrupted and dysfunctional, IF [and ONLY if] the ENTIRETY (that is: ALL) of the inferior sentient beings intended to be subject to such God-given/administered/enforced Law chose (as much as they had the capacity for free choice and not mere instinctual response) to not comply with such Divine Government and Law thereof.

It might be of interest to you, the reader (being that it already is of interest to yours truly), that such complete non-cooperation has NEVER YET occurred pertaining to God-given Divine Government and Law thereof. It has been DIVINELY recorded plus prophesied and thus predicted in Holy Writ that there have always been at least SOME inferior sentient beings who have VOLUNTARILY accommodated to both Divine Government and Divine Law, and there ALWAYS WILL be such who voluntarily comply.

It is THAT type of inferior sentient human being [and group of them] who have been most successful in constructing, applying, and enforcing whatever human-Government structure [be it monarchy, republic, totalitarianism, whatever] and Law thereof they have come up with [consider our American Founding Fathers basing their anti-British-oppression United States on Judeo-Christian Deity acknowledgment, doctrine, and principles].

Exodus 22:28 You shall not revile God, nor curse a ruler of your people.

Proverbs 24:21 My son, fear the LORD and the king, and do not disobey either of them.

Ecclesiastes 8:2 Keep the king's command, and because of your sacred oath be not dismayed;
8:3 go from his presence, do not delay when the matter is unpleasant, for he does whatever he pleases.
8:4 For the word of the king is supreme, and who may say to him, "What are you doing?"
8:5 He who obeys a command will meet no harm, and the mind of a wise man will know the time and way.

Romans 13:1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.
13:2 Therefore he who resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.
13:3 For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of him who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval,
13:4 for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain; he is the servant of God to execute his wrath on the wrongdoer.
13:5 Therefore one must be subject, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience.
13:6 For the same reason you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing.
13:7 Pay all of them their dues, taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.
13:8 Owe no one anything [including credit-card debt, student loans or car loans, mortgages, etc.], except to love one another; for he who loves his [or her] neighbor has fulfilled the law.

Titus 2:9 Tell slaves to be submissive to their masters and to give satisfaction in every respect; they are not to be refractory.
Titus 3:1 Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for any honest work.

First Peter 2:17 Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor [be he FDR instead of Hitler, Nixon instead of Mao, JFK instead of Khrushchev, George W Bush instead of Saddam or Arafat, Netanyahu instead of BHO].

Police and sheriff not only are present "to protect and serve" whatever Government [and Law thereof] they themselves are employed by and they themselves also subject to (in hierarchal Government structure previously mentioned), and/or to show how assertively bossy they can be (but with all the many intricate and complex constraints which have put on them by the ones they "protect and serve"), but they are there to be Enforcers of Love.

WHAT? Enforce "love?"

Sure. There are, now and then, aberrant-at-times-or-often individuals who presume that THEY THEMSELVES are THE Only Thing In The World That Matters. That THEY ALONE are THE ONLY One Who Counts, and thus [with harassive spam-like arrogance and defiance] impose whatever slight or gross deviation against Law they mis-perform to prove it. They, at those times, SELFISHLY do NOT care for nor about anyone else but THEMSELVES.....to the if-not-fatal-at-least-harmful DETRIMENT AGAINST (not "for") others subject to the same Government and Law thereof.

Cops are present [though not to the extent that Creator God is]) to IMPARTIALLY make sure that EVERYONE (under that particular Government and Law thereof) takes OTHERS into consideration (who ALSO are under that particular Government and Law thereof) so that the society governed by that Government and Law operates satisfactorily and smoothly, without partial or total destabilization.

Law-enforcement officers are NOT THE ONLY ONES engaged in insuring compliance with Law. The God-given Law involving Biblically-alluded-to "fruits of the Spirit" is alive and well regarding both CLERK and CUSTOMER, MANAGER and MANAGED in COMMERCIAL BUSINESSES (such as fast-food restaurants).

Holy (and understandable) Discrimination is the Rule, and consequently both quickly and soon-unemployed is any Arby's, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Hardee's, KFC, worker who [similar to porn and glamor models applicants] is careless, thoughtless, rude, dwarfy, lame, tardy, slacking, stinky, vulgar, mischievous, overly-tattooed, severely-enough deformed or diseased, disgustingly pierced, weird-hair-colored/styled, blind or deaf or mute, indescribably butt-ugly and/or phenomenally obese, under-aged or hospice-ready, English-language-deficient, indecently-misattired, or in whatever way is intolerably non-acceptable [though not so much the case with any walk-in customer] in view of:

Leviticus 21:16 And the LORD said to Moses:
21:17 "Say to Aaron: None of your descendants throughout their generations who has a blemish may approach to offer the bread [be it buns of Arby's, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Hardee's, KFC,] of his God.
21:18 For no one who has a blemish shall draw near, a man blind or lame, or one who has a mutilated face or a limb too long,
21:19 or a man who has an injured foot or an injured hand,
21:20 or a hunchback, or a dwarf, or a man with a defect in his sight or an itching disease or scabs or crushed testicles;
21:22 He may eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy and of the holy things,
21:23 but he shall not come near the veil or approach the altar, because he has a blemish, that he may not profane my sanctuaries; for I am the LORD who sanctify them."

Deuteronomy 23:21 [paraphrased] "When you put in your order for food to the fast-food clerk especially during the busy lunch hour, you shall not be slack to pay it; for the clerk and store manager will surely require it of you, and it would be big trouble for you if you do not quickly-enough come up with the money."

Deuteronomy 23:21 [actual wording] When you make a vow to the LORD your God, you shall not be slack to pay it; for the LORD your God will surely require it of you, and it would be sin in you.

There's more:

Zechariah 3:4 And the angel said to those who were standing before him, "Remove the filthy garments from him." And to him he said: "Hey, I have taken your iniquity away from you, and I will clothe you with rich apparel."

Zechariah 3:4 [paraphrased] And the store manager said to his new fast-food-restaurant employee: "Go to the restroom and remove your filthy low-hanging-trousers-with-holes-at-the-kneecaps street clothes off you, and put on our snappy trademarked-insignia store uniform if you want to work here."

For potential romantic, then marital and sexual encounters with fellow employees or customers, previous circumcision is inspectable:

Genesis 17:14 Any uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin shall be cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant.

Female applicants coming in for a fast-food-restaurant job interview immodestly misattired with loose-long-haired mopheadedness, sleevesless nude arms, naked legs bared with shorts or shortened skirts, and parts of feet exposed in soxless sandals hear the employer say to them: "This is not a brothel, nor a nude striptease bar. Health Department Regulations for food preparers and conveyers require loose long hair to be kept tied into an up-do or single back-of-head ponytail, and our snappy company-insignia uniforms of long sleeves, full-length slacks, and black shoes with socks are the mandatory dress code at all times."

Numbers 5:18 [RSV/NASV] And the priest shall set the woman [suspected of committing adultery] before the LORD, and UNBIND THE HAIR OF THE WOMAN'S HEAD, and place in her hands the cereal offering of remembrance, which is the cereal offering of jealousy. And in his hand the priest shall have the water of bitterness that brings the curse {if she has indeed secretly committed adultery].

Deuteronomy 32:42 [RSV] I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh with the blood of the slain and the captives, from THE LONG-HAIRED HEADS OF THE ENEMY.

Second Samuel 13:18 [RSV/NASV] Now she was wearing a LONG-SLEEVED FULL-LENGTH gown; for thus were the virgin daughters of the king traditionally clad. So his servant put her out, and bolted the door after her.

Proverbs 5:15 Drink water from your own cistern, flowing water from your own well.
5:16 Should your springs be scattered abroad, streams of water in the [gutter]?
5:17 Let them be for yourself alone, and not for strangers with you.
5:18 Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth,
5:19 a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let HER BREASTS fill you at all times with delight, be infatuated always with her love.
5:20 Why should you be infatuated, my son, with a LOOSE woman and embrace the [unbuttoned-or-low-cut-blouse-exposed] BOOBS of an adventuress?

Song of Solomon 2:14 Oh MY dove, in the clefts of the rock, in the covert of the cliff, let me see YOUR FACE, let me hear YOUR VOICE, for YOUR voice is sweet, and YOUR face is attractive.
2:15 ARREST and FINE the [titillatingly-somewhat-misdressed] foxes [for lewd-conduct indecent exposure], the little foxes, who spoil the [marital-fidelity] vineyards, for our vineyards are in blossom."
2:16 My beloved is MINE and I am HIS, HE pastures HIS flock among the lilies.

Song of Solomon 7:7 YOU are stately as a palm tree, and YOUR BREASTS are like its clusters.
Song of Solomon 7:8 I say I will climb the palm tree and lay hold of its branches. Oh, may YOUR BREASTS be like clusters of the vine, and the scent of YOUR breath like apples...[whether from Sysco or US Food Service, Super Valu or Cub Foods].

Song of Solomon 8:4 I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, that you stir not up nor awaken love [by appearing hair-let-down certain-body-parts-exposed strip-teased in general mixed-gender public view] until it please.

Isaiah 47:1 Come down and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans! For you shall no more be called tender and delicate.
47:2 Take the millstones and grind meal, put off your veil, STRIP OFF YOUR ROBE, UNCOVER YOUR LEGS, pass through the rivers.
47:3 Your NAKEDNESS shall be uncovered, and your SHAME shall be seen. I will take VENGEANCE, and I will spare NO one.
47:4 Our Redeemer - the LORD of hosts is his name - is the Holy One of Israel.

Jeremiah 2:20 [KJV/RSV/NASV] "For long ago you broke your yoke and burst your bonds; and you said, 'I will not serve.' Yes, upon every high hill and under every green tree you bowed down as a HARLOT.
2:21 Yet I planted you a choice vine, completely of pure seed. How then have you turned DEGENERATE and become a wild vine?
2:22 Though you wash yourself with lye and use much soap, the stain of your GUILT is still before me," says the Lord GOD.
2:23 How can you say, 'I am not defiled, I have not gone after the Baals'? Look at your way in the valley; know what you have done: a restive young camel retracing her tracks, in her HEAT sniffing the wind! Who can restrain her LUST? None who seek her need weary themselves; in her month they will find her.
2:25 KEEP YOUR FEET FROM GOING UNSHOD and your throat from thirst. But you said, 'It is hopeless, for I have "loved" [i.e. LUSTED after] STRANGERS, and after THEM I will go.'

First Corinthians 11:16 [KJV] If anyone intends to be contentious, we have no SUCH custom of allowing a woman to misregard her LOOSE LONG HAIR adequate for a prayer covering or veil, NOR do the churches of God.

First Timothy 2:8 I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling;
2:9 also that women should adorn themselves MODESTLY AND DECENTLY IN PROPER APPAREL, not with plaited hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing
2:10 but by good works, as befits women who profess religion.
2:11 Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness.
2:12 I allow no woman to teach or to have authority over men; she is to keep silent.
2:13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve;
2:14 and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.
2:15 Yet woman will be saved by bearing children, if she continues in faith and love and holiness, with sobriety.

Equal pay for equal work? NO WAY - when the equal work attempted is of [NON-EQUAL] inferior quality by being done by the [NON-EQUAL] inferior instead of superior gender!

CONCERNING (NOT: "regarding") showing up for work on time, not being a slacker on the job, and much more:

Jeremiah 48:10 Cursed is he who does the work of the LORD with slackness; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from bloodshed.

I am not sure about applying the "bloodshed" part for an Arby's, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Hardee's, KFC, worker, but perhaps there is metaphorical/symbolic/figurative/allegorical application in whatever ways called for.

Although credit is not usually nor directly given to Judeo-Christian Scripture as THE Source of Enlightenment for the civilian (though military-reminiscent) Government and Law at Arby's, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Hardee's, KFC, diligent and mandatory effectualization of the following is quite adamantly and inflexibly expedient and operational:

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love [for rushed, sensitive, hungry customers], joy [no growling or semi-suicidal-depression slow-up on the job], peace [do not start any fights with fellow employees nor customers], patience [for dummies who cannot get the money out of their wallets fast enough, or want change for $100 bills], kindness [do not give troublesome customers the raised third finger, nor stick out your tongue nor thumb your nose at them], goodness, faithfulness,
Galatians 5:23 gentleness, self-control; against such there is no Law [even Hezbollah, Hamas, and Fatah, plus nazis and commies like it when one is nice to them. Why? Darned if I know].

Isaiah 57:4 Of whom are you making sport? Against whom do you open your mouth wide and put out your tongue? Are you not children of transgression, the offspring of deceit...?

Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man [customer] is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual [a clerk in charge at the cash register] should restore him [the non-thinking dummy] in a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted.

First Timothy 6:11 But as for you, man of God,....aim at righteousness [give the fast-food customers their quality money's worth], godliness [if you drop their food on the dirty floor, throw it away rather than wrapping it up and giving it to them like nothing happened], faith [in your food products, cooks, microwave ovens, and the electro-mechanical reliability of your credit-cards-processing machine], love [for overworked cooks and beleaguered drive-by tellers], continuity [consistency for and to all on the job], gentleness.

Second Timothy 2:25 ...correcting his opponents with gentleness [no refractory retorts, back-talk remarks, nor sarcastically-critical comments]. God may perhaps grant that they [dummies] will repent and come to know the truth...

Titus 3:2 ...speak evil of no one [including fellow fast-food employees], to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all men [customers].

Food quality (even if the FDA is not watching) is vital for the health of fast-food-restaurant customers:

Leviticus 7:24 The fat of an animal that dies of itself, and the fat of one that is torn by beasts, may be put to any other use, but on no account shall you eat it.
Leviticus 22:8 That which dies of itself or is torn by beasts he shall not eat, defiling himself by it: 'I am the LORD.'
Deuteronomy 14:21 You shall not eat anything that dies of itself; you may give it to the alien who is within your towns, that he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a people holy to the LORD your God. You shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
Deuteronomy 15:21 But if it has any blemish, if it is lame or blind, or has any serious blemish whatever, you shall not sacrifice it to the LORD your God.
Deuteronomy 17:1 You shall not sacrifice to the LORD your God an ox or a sheep in which is a blemish, any defect whatever; for that is an abomination to the LORD your God.

Let's have those hamburgers cooked WELL-DONE (but not tough as shoe leather), and NEVER bloody "medium rare" nor [worse yet] "rare:

Leviticus 7:27 Whoever eats [or drinks] any blood, that person shall be cut off from his people.
Leviticus 17:10 If any man of the house of Israel or of the strangers who travels among them eats any blood, I will set my face against that person who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.

That includes any alleged "body and blood of Christ" concerning any cannibals trotting into the fast-food restaurant and up to the counter to order whatever bloodiness they crave. They must politely be informed to instead leave the premises and go symbolically cannibalize (perhaps against Health-Department-regulated State Law) inside some church, synagogue, or mosque, in spite of:

John 6:54 ...he who eats my [spiritualized] flesh and drinks my [spiritualized] blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at The Last Day.
John 6:56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood resides in me, and I in him.

REAL blood, Dracula-style? Are you crazy, nuts, bonkers, insane, beside yourself, krank im kopf, verrückt, toll?

Yuck! If so, might as well also ingest poop with pudding, and/or piss with pop:

Second Kings 18:27 But the Rabshakeh said to them: "Has my master sent me to speak these words to your master and to you, and not to the men sitting on the wall, who are doomed with you to eat their own dung and to drink their own urine?"
Isaiah 36:12 But the Rabshakeh said: "Has my master sent me to speak these words to your master and to you, and not to the men sitting on the wall, who are doomed with you to eat their own dung and drink their own urine?"
Ezekiel 4:15 Then [God] said to [Ezekiel]: "See, I will let you have cow's dung instead of human dung, on which you may prepare your bread."

SO, if your hamburger ever tastes funny....

Make sure that what comes out of the pop machine is BONAFIDE lemonade or non-sweetened iced tea, OK?

And plenty of ice in the ice dispenser on the pop machine, please:

Matthew 10:42 And whoever gives to one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

Take it easy on the fragile credit-card and other food-processing machines, and do not abuse them, per:

Proverbs 12:10 A righteous man has regard for the life of his beast, but the mercy of the wicked is cruel.

Maybe some employees do not consider it necessary for their fast-food customers to smell good, whether because of non-washed accumulated sweat or residual semen. Managers, concerned about the success of their restaurant regarding sufficient customer patronage and visitations, and for the sake of sweet-"aroma" customers themselves [especially repeat customers] overtly require otherwise:

Leviticus 15:16 And if a man has an emission of semen, he shall bathe his whole body in water, and be unclean until the evening.
Leviticus 15:17 And every garment and every skin on which the semen comes shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the evening.
Leviticus 15:18 If a man lies with a woman and has an emission of semen, both of them shall bathe themselves in water, and be unclean until the evening.

Ezekiel 16:9 Then I bathed you with water [GOOD idea!] and washed off your blood from you, and anointed you with oil.

John 13:12 When He had washed their feet, and taken His garments, and resumed His place, He said to them: "Do you know what I have done to you?"

Second Peter 2:22 It has happened to them according to the true proverb: 'The dog turns back to his own vomit, and the pig [bacon and ham, plus pork chops] is washed only to wallow in the mire.'

Revelation 7:14 I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb."

ABSOLUTELY NO homogay effeminate and non-queer sodomite employees soliciting same-gender sodomy-unions-licensed sex during Business Hours, Monday through Friday, plus on Saturdays and Sundays:

First Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the non-righteous will not inherit the kingdom of God [let alone become permanently employed, having homo-obvious rings in their left earlobes]? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,
6:10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of God.
6:11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

First Corinthians 10:33 ...just as I try to please all men [both customers AND employees] in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many [customers], that they may be saved [enjoy continual survival of the particular perhaps-locally-owned, franchised restaurant].
First Corinthians 11:2 I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions [rules for being employed with Arby's, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Hardee's, KFC,] even as I have delivered them to you.

Second Corinthians 2:9 For this is why I wrote [dropped in non-expectantly, as Undercover Boss], that I might test you and know whether you are obedient in everything.
Second Corinthians 8:7 Now as you excel in everything -- in faith, in utterance, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in your love for us -- see that you excel in this gracious [fast-food-restaurant-business] work also.

Colossians 1:18 He [The Manager] is the head of the body [the fast-food restaurant], the church [Arby's, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Hardee's, KFC,]; He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead [most managers, at least initially before they burn out, are not quite that bad], that in everything He might be pre-eminent [so no strikes nor slow-downs].

Colossians 3:19 Husbands [Managers}, love your wives [employees], and do not be harsh with them.
Colossians 3:20 Children [including lower-paid Hispanic-Mexican-alien fast-food employees], obey your parents [your local and corporate managers] in everything, for this pleases the Lord [as well as Corporate - plus the Federal Trade Commission, Securities and Exchange Commission, the IRS, and the Department of Commerce].
Colossians 3:22 Slaves [need I say more pertaining to Arby's, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Hardee's, KFC, employees?], obey in everything those who are your earthly masters ["masters" is the word], not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord [He ultimately brings in the customers and excludes terrorists, if then as He provides good weather for easy and convenient restaurant access and operation].

Ephesians 5:24 As the church is subject to Christ [Arby's, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Hardee's, KFC, managers], so let wives [fast-food-restaurant employees] also be subject in everything to their husbands [local and corporate managers].
Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her,
Ephesians 5:26 that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with The Word [great husband-with-spouse private-FOREPLAY plan!]

Philippians 4:6 Have no anxiety about anything [job-related, or personal-life stuff], but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God [not necessarily to either manager nor customers].

Second Timothy 2:7 Think over what I say, for the Lord will grant you understanding in everything.

Titus 2:10 ....to not pilfer, but to show entire and true fidelity [for The Stock Market], so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior [Wall Street investors].

Hebrews 10:22 ...let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

First Peter 4:11 ...whoever speaks [be it clerk or customer], as one who utters oracles of God; whoever renders service, as one who renders it by the strength which God supplies; in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To Him belong glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

If an ears-deafening loud or shrieking child, or terrifying destructive customer, gets out of hand, the manager should courageously-and-promptly-enough report him or her to the police, before things really get nasty:

Proverbs 17:14 The beginning of strife is like letting out water; so quit before the quarrel breaks out.
Proverbs 19:19 A man of great wrath will pay the penalty; for if you deliver him, you will only have to do it again.
Proverbs 29:19 By mere words a servant is not disciplined, for though he understands, he will not give heed.
Proverbs 30:33 For pressing milk produces curds, pressing the nose produces blood, and pressing anger produces strife.

Matthew 5:25 Make friends quickly with your accuser, while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison...
Luke 12:58 As you go with your accuser before the magistrate, make an effort to settle with him on the way, lest he drag you to the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer put you in prison.

Proverbs 25:18 A man who bears false witness against his neighbor is like a war club, or a sword, or a sharp arrow.

Proverbs 26:18 Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death,
26:19 is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, "I am only joking!"
26:20 For lack of wood the fire goes out; and where there is no whisperer, quarreling ceases.
26:22 The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body.
26:23 Like the glaze covering an earthen vessel are smooth lips with an evil heart.
26:24 He who hates, dissembles with his lips and harbors deceit in his heart;
26:25 when he speaks graciously, believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his heart;
26:26 though his hatred be covered with deceit, his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
26:27 He who digs a pit will fall into it, and a stone will come back upon him who starts it rolling.
26:28 A lying tongue hates its victims, and a flattering mouth works ruin.

Titus 2:2 Tell the older men [senior-citizen cashier clerks and clean-up-crew guys] be temperate, serious, sensible, sound in faith, in love, and in continuity.
