I was thinking about how Jesus was with His boys whom He called to Himself, those whom He loved and taught and used to start His Church worldwide. Being with the Lord of Life, they matured from boys, to men of great faith and worth to the Savior of the world. We have the Holy Bible because of that. We have God’s Holy Spirit whom He sent in place of Jesus Christ in bodily form.

When I sit down with the Word of God, I’m sitting with Jesus to hear what God has to say to me. Jesus is called the “living Word of God” who lives forever. “For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, even penetrating as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.” (Hebrews 4:12) “Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection; He defends those that reverence Him.” Proverbs 30:5

When I pray, I’m responding to Him and what He says to me from within His Word. “Then you will call on Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.” (Jeremiah 29:12) “I have hidden Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You.” Psalm 119:11

When I go about my day, I’m in continual fellowship with Jesus because He poured His Spirit in me so I can. I walk with Him wherever I go, and He’s with me in all that I do. I’m always aware of how He feels about all that I do.

At times I know that what I’m doing isn’t what He wants me to do, but I go ahead and do it anyway, like a rebellious child that still gives in to her sin-nature. “Yet there are some in the church….. who have not soiled their clothes with evil. They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.” Revelation 3:4

But I know that because HE LIVES IN ME, like He physically lived with His boys, never leaving them or me, I can stand on the truth that Apostle Paul learned and passed on to us about our sin-nature:

“So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!” Romans 7:21-25

“But the time is coming—indeed it’s here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way.” John 4:23

I love the book of Jude. It warned us and still warns us, of the days leading up to our Lord’s return to end all evil and rebellion on the earth; that deceivers and scoffers who do not have God’s Spirit but rather follow their own ungodly desires, work to divide us. Jude also encourages those who have God’s indwelling Spirit and Word - to persevere in the truth of God’s Word and praying in the Holy Spirit as we wait for the Lord Jesus Christ to bring us to Himself, the eternal life of God.

“KEEP yourselves in God’s love as you WAIT for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life. Be merciful to those who doubt;” (Do not judge them for their lack of knowledge, but instead tell them why you trust and love the Lord.) “save others by snatching them from the fire;” (Warn them of the coming judgment of God and PRAY for them to turn to Jesus their Savior with repentance.) “to others show mercy, mixed with fear – hating even the clothing stained by corruption.” (Be around unbelievers without being comprised in the least; be in the world but not of, and like the world.)

The Spirit of Christ is this, according to Jesus Christ’s own words about His Holy Spirit: “He will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears from Me, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will glorify Me because it is from Me that he will receive what he will make known to you.” John 16:13-14

And we are told to "test the spirits," because the spirit we are listening to may not be Christ's Holy Spirit. How do you test the spirits; you test what you hear by what the Word of God says about EVERYTHING.

We hear today so many so-called Christians using God’s Word to mask their own evil agendas. Or like the apostle John says about those who say they believe in the Son of God, yet they run ahead of His pure teaching with their OWN fine-sounding teaching and prove themselves to not have God living in them at all by His Spirit. (2 John 2-10)

John warns us that we are not to welcome ‘false teachers’ into our houses of worship (church organizations or private homes); that any such person is a deceiver of the antichrist. “Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully.”

It grieves me that most American churches today have compromised the Word of God and therefore have ignorantly allowed deceivers to infiltrate their houses of worship. What church leaders should be able to discern and protect, they have not, but rather forfeited the power and presence of the Lord’s Holy Spirit to serve their own “religions,” instead of serving the Lord Jesus Christ who is the chief cornerstone of His Church worldwide. Jesus Christ is the Head of the Body of all believers.   

John says that anyone who welcomes a “deceiver” shares in their wicked work. (2 John 11)

A deceiver is not the same as one who is searching for the truth to believe in the truth. The deceiver KNOWS the truth but twists, perverts, and works to destroy ALL truth from God. Satan, the great antichrist, knows the truth better than anyone and uses the Word of God to deceive and destroy faithfulness to the Lord Jesus Christ. If Satan and his deceivers can’t stop someone from believing in Jesus Christ as their Savior, he will work just as hard to keep a believer from their reward of faith in what God has called them to do.

How many believers today faithfully sit down each morning with God’s Word, and to pray? If the Word does not live in us, we can be easily deceived. If the Holy Spirit does not live in us, we cannot understand the Word of God as it should be understood. To all faithful believers…..

“To Him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before His glorious presence without fault and with great joy – to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before ALL ages, now and forevermore! Amen.”  Jude 24-25

The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution not only molded a fledgling United States, but they also set a precedent for countries around the world seeking democracy. And now, more than ever before, it is vital that Americans REACQUAINT themselves with these two historic documents – so they might “form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty.” Floyd G. Cullop – History teacher in Monroe County, Florida

Our American history that should be taught:

When the Second Continental Congress approved the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, the American colonies (settlements in a new country that are ruled by the mother country) had already been at war with Great Britain for more than a year. With the declaration, the meaning of that war subtly changed.What had been a resistance to unjust acts by the British government now BECAME A WAR OF INDEPENDENCE. The colonies had united to form a new nation.

In 1760, when King George III took the throne, there was very little anti-British feeling in America. Most Americans were content to be subjects of the King. The British almost never interfered in the government of the colonies, and there was very little antiroyalist (opposed to the idea of rule by a hereditary king or queen) feeling.

The roots of the change were in the French and Indian War (1754-63), fought by the British against the French (and their Native American allies) in America. England was ultimately triumphant, driving the French out of Canada. But the war was won at the cost of a crippling debt. The British Parliament (national lawmaking body) believed it was fair to expect the American colonists to help to pay off the debt. After all, British soldiers had fought the French and Indian War partly to protect the Americans’ homes and property. The Americans had formerly contributed very little tax to the British. In fact, the British had been paying most of the expenses of American government and American defense. For these reasons, the British began a POLICY of NEW TAXATION on the colonies. 

Immediately the colonists OBJECTED. When the colonies were originally established, their charters (written statements of purpose and rights) gave them almost complete freedom from England. Their OWN legislatures (lawmaking bodies of colonies) had always imposed the taxes and made the laws. Each colony did have a colonial governor, appointed by the King. In theory, the governor could veto (reject) any measures passed by the state legislatures, and even dissolve (shut down) these legislatures. But in practice this was almost never done. The colonies were effectively INDEPENDENT STATES.

So when Britain began to impose taxes on the colonists, there were two reason for the Americans to be angry. Their FINANCIAL INTERESTS WERE HURT; and their political SOVEREIGNTY (self-rule) was THREATENED.

The FIRST attempt by the British Parliament to raise revenue from the Americans was the Revenue Act of 1764, usually known as the Sugar Act. It actually lowered the tax of molasses (used as sugar) but levied duties (collected taxes) on imported European luxury goods, like wine, linen, and silk. Eight of the thirteen colonies sent petitions to the King asking him to repeal the Act. Americans also began to boycott (refuse to buy) the affected goods. This nonimportation movement would later grow to be an important tactic for the patriots. 

Many of the most passionate advocates of independence were MERCHANTS like Samuel Adams and John Hancock. Hancock – the President of the Second Continental Congress – himself had one of his ships confiscated (taken away) by the British for breaking the customs laws. Because the British were taxing imports, the expense most immediately affected these merchants. They were also hurt by new British restrictions on trade with other countries.

Parliament made a crucial mistake with its next tax. The Stamp Act of 1765 required Americans to put revenue stamps (stamps indicating taxes paid) on all printed matter: newspapers, pamphlets, licenses, legal documents, even playing cards. The stamps had to be purchased from agents appointed by the crown, with the money going back to the British Treasury. Now, in addition to cutting the profits of merchants, the British had threatened the incomes of journalist and lawyers. In America, merchants, lawyers, and journalists were important leaders in the community. They now became the leaders of the RESISTANCE as well. Organized groups of BUSINESSMEN, known as the “Sons of Liberty,” attacked stamp agents and destroyed the stamps. Angry mobs broke into British officials’ homes, robbing and destroying their belongings.

Meanwhile, the nonimportation movement grew more powerful. Trade with Britain fell. And defiance (refusing to obey) the Stamp Act meant that business in the colonies continued as usual. Licenses were issued without stamps, newspapers and pamphlets distributed without stamps, legal documents served without stamps – all in VIOLATION of the BRITISH law. But this was NOT regarded as criminal behavior. After all, legislatures from most of the American states had declared the Stamp Act itself to be against THEIR laws. 

Representatives from nine of the thirteen colonies joined in a Stamp Act Congress (assembly) to come up with ways of PROTESTING the Act. They passed resolutions (decisions) declaring that Parliament had no right to tax the colonies. Since the American colonists had no representatives in the British Parliament, the Parliament should NOT PASS LAWS governing them. This idea was summed up in the slogan, “No taxation without representation.” 

Finally, the British gave in. They repealed the Stamp Act in 1766. However, they responded to the Stamp Act Congress by passing yet another Act, the Declaration Act. This said that the British Parliament had the right to make laws governing the colonies “in ALL cases whatsoever.” MORE taxes and trade restrictions followed. First came the Townshend Acts of 1767, which raised taxes on glass, tea, paper, paint, and lead. Then came the Tea Act. This gave England’s’ East India Company a monopoly (complete control) on the export of tea to the colonies. Since they were the only provider of tea, they could change any price they wished. This led to the BOSTON TEA PARTY, a protest in which the SONS OF LIBERTY disguised themselves as Native American warriors, boarded three British ships, and dumped their cargo of tea into the ocean.

Meanwhile, the British gradually took power from the Americans. This is the BASIS of many of the COMPLAINTS AGAINST THE KING in the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.

Here are only some of the 27 complaints listed that seem relative to what America is going through with a current tyrannical government in power: 

He (the King) has refused His Assent (agreement) to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. (They want all the power in the Congress, Senate and House of representatives, to fulfill their anti-American agenda while they have the White House too.)

He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers. He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. (They want to stack the courts with leftist judges that will serve them.)He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent thither swarms of Officers to HARASS our people, and eat out their substance. 

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. (They want to hire thousands more IRS agents to come after conservatives, to put fear in those who oppose the democrat party.) 

He has imposed taxes on us without our consent. (Unfair taxation as they use our money to fund their evil agenda to transform America from a first-world nation to a third-world nation.)

He has deprived us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury. (Their agenda is ‘guilty till proven innocent’ for those who oppose their tyrannical ways with a two-tiered justice system.)

He has transported us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences. (Unjust arrests and kangaroo courts.)He has taken away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments. (They are coming against our Sovereignty, Independence, Constitution and Rights.)

He has suspended our own Legislatures and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. (They don’t want us to have a say through the voting system, nor speaking out publicly against their policies that are ruining our nation.)

He has waged war against us, plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns and destroyed the lives of our people. (They are doing everything they can get away with in order to silence and shut down their opposition. Lawlessness in democrat run states has ruined cities and put fear in peace-loving law-abiding citizens.) 

He has transported large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy of the Head of a civilized nation.

He has excited DOMESTIC INSURRECTIONS amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the MERCILESS Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions. (We don’t have Indians today being used like then, but we have a Soros-funded army of destruction within our cities and going after conservatives and politicians that our president’s administration disapproves of.)

He has repeatedly ignored our petitions for Redress (restoration, compensation, remedy, for damages). (America’s current administration has no desire and plan to shut down lawlessness, especially at our borders of illegal crossings in the millions; no desire or plan to stop all the damage being done to our country and its legal/law-abiding/tax-paying/God-fearing families.)

“A Prince (president) whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a FREE people.”

They have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity (blood-kinship). We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, ENEMIES in War, in Peace FRIENDS.

We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the SUPREME JUDGE OF THE WORLD for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, THAT THESE UNITED COLONIES ARE, AND OF RIGHT OUGHT TO BE FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as FREE and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all Acts and Things which Independent States may of RIGHT do. And for the support of this DECLARATION, with a firm reliance on the protection of DIVINE PROVIDENCE, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

Other complaints concerned the quartering of soldiers in American communities. (What we see happening today with them calling parents, Christians and Trump supporters TERRORISTS, when in fact, that is what the democrat left is.)

In places like Boston, this amounted to marital law (rule by the military). Clashes between soldiers and the outraged townspeople sometimes became violent. The worst incident was the Boston Massacre of March 5, 1774, known as the Intolerable Acts in America. These closed Boston’s port, gave Britain direct rule of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and allowed the confiscation of American property by the British army.

In reaction, the Virginian Assembly called for a congress of representatives from all thirteen colonies – the First Continental Congress. It met on September 12, 1775, in Philadelphia. At this point, the Congress aimed at reconciliation with Britain, not revolution. They sent a petition (written request) to King George III, and wrote the DECLARATION of RIGHTS and GRIEVANCES addressed to the British people. Both documents are conciliatory in tone (intended to regain friendship). On the other hand, the First Continental Congress endorsed Massachusetts’ Suffolk Resolves. These rejected the Coercive Acts and called on the people of Massachusetts to rise up against the British. They amounted to a declaration of war. 

Parliament responded with the North Conciliatory Resolve, which offered everything the colonists had wanted in the first place. It said that any colony that could pay for its own government and defense would not be taxed by Britain. But the Coercive Acts remained in place. It was too little, too late.

On April 18, 1775, General Gage, the commander in chief of the British army in America, sent soldiers to confiscate arms from rebels in Concord, Massachusetts. The rebels were warned, however, by PAUL REVERE and other patriots, who rode out ahead of the British. The colonists gathered to DEFEND THEMSELVES, and faced the British forces at nearby Lexington. There the FIRST BATTLE OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION was fought on April 19, 1775.

The Second Continental Congress met on May 10, 1775. Because the colonies were in a state of open rebellion, this Congress acted as the FIRST GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED AMERICAN STATES. They appointed GEORGE WASHINGTON as the leader of the Continental Army. There were a few more attempts at reconciliation (agreement) with Britain, but a hear after the Congress had first met, Congress adopted a resolution advising the colonies to FORM THEIR OWN GOVENRMENTS, without the now-hated British governors. And on June 7, 1776, Richard Henry Lee, a delegate from Virginia, proposed the motion that THESE UNITED COLONIES ARE, AND OF RIGHT OUGHT TO BE FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES.

The debate lasted two days. The vote itself was delayed another three weeks because some state assemblies had not yet voted for independence. Delegates from those states returned home to get their states’ approval. In this time, Congress chose a committee to prepare the Declaration of Independence. The most famous members of the committee were the eminent scientist Benjamin Franklin and the noted Massachusetts patriot John Adams (who would later become the second president of the United States). The other members were Roger Sherman, Robert Livingston, and a shy, awkward junior delegate from Virginia called Thomas Jefferson. It was Jefferson who was given the task of writing the document itself. His draft (first version of a document) was rewritten only very slightly by the other members before it was put before the Congress.

No one realized at the time how important this document would become. Jefferson was given the task at least partly because the more important members of the committee, like Franklin and Adams, were too busy. Of course, it gained its fame partly through Jefferson’ brilliance as a writer and political thinker.

Jefferson borrowed freely from other people’s ideas and even their writings. Like all the writings of the Founders, the Declaration was influenced by British political thinkers like Algernon Sidney and John Locke. It also took many of its ideas from Britain’s Declaration of Rights of 1689. This was very popular in the Colonies. The American patriots often cited the Declaration of Rights in their complaints against the King. Also, Virginia’s Constitution and Virginia’s Declaration of Rights, both written in early 1776, were clearly in Jefferson’s mind as he sat down to write. Much of the language and content of the Declaration of Independence echoes these documents. 

When the declaration of Independence was debated, Congress made serious cuts and alterations. They deleted about one-quarter of the original. They made the attacks on the British more mild. They also added two mentions of GOD. 

The change that matters most to us today is the removal of all direct discussion of SLAVERY. Jefferson’s draft included a very long and passionate CONDEMNATION of the slave trade. Jefferson accuses the King of engaging in the abduction and enslaving of people in Africa. He also blames King George III for introducing slaves into America, and for blocking attempts by the colonists to discourage and restrict slavery. 

In the final text, all direct references to slavery were cut out. This was partly because the colonists were aware they would be vulnerable to charges of hypocrisy (saying one thing and doing another). Jefferson himself was a slave owner, although wanting to free the slaves. Large parts of the colonies were dependent on slavery. Attacks on slavery were also unpopular with some delegates because of the economic importance slavery had in their states. (But later we see slavery abolished by law under President Abraham Lincoln, who was assassinated. Slaves were free, but part of the democrat party then, that consisted of those politicians and slave-owners who wanted to keep slavery, started the KKK party of disguised secret murderers of freed slaves, women and children too, and even those who helped their slaves go free. Today, we still see this type of democrat politicians, but wanting to make slaves of all of us, of all races, to serve them. They are to SERVE US!)

The Declaration of Independence was approved by Congress on July 4, 1776, the day we still celebrate as Independence Day. Only twelve of the thirteen colonies had voted in favor of it on that day. The delegates from New York had not yet received approval for independence from their state assembly (they got that approval on July 19). The official signing took place on August 2. John Hancock, the President of the Congress, made his signature huge, joking that it would be big enough for King George to read without his glasses. As he signed, Hancock said, “There must be no pulling different ways. We must all hang together.” Benjamin Franklin replied, “Yes, we must, indeed, hang together (stick together), or most assuredly we shall all hang separately (be executed).” This was a joke, but a very serious one. Signing the Declaration was an act of treason (crime against one’s government), and all the signers were risking their lives if the revolution had failed. 

The first printed version of the Declaration was called the Dunlap Broadside. Copies of it were sent throughout the colonies. Public readings of it were help through July and August, and greeted with public celebration – parades, concerts, and sometimes fireworks.

Abroad, the first reaction was not so positive. Both King George III and Parliament refused to respond to it, because any response would seem like an acknowledgment of its validity (worth). The British philosopher Jeremy Bentham commented, “To accomplish their independence is not so easy as to declare it.” But America’s victory in the revolution was soon to follow. American independence was officially recognized by Britain in 1783, with the signing of the Treaty of Paris, which ended the war.

The Declaration of Independence is a formal announcement that America considers itself an independent nation. It also explains why the Americans believed they were right to secede (break away) from Great Britain. It consists of a preamble, a list of grievances against King George III, and the declaration itself. (The list of 27 grievances, more than I have listed above.) 

The Preamble (introductory statement) sets out the principles behind the American Revolution. It is addressed to the world, and is written to justify the revolution to world opinion. It is also a statement of the principles of American government.

It begins by saying that, when a people wants to become independent, they should explain their reasons. The second paragraph begins to set out those reasons. It says that some truths are self-evident – they are obvious to everyone and don’t need proof. The first self-evident truth is that all men are created equal. With this statement, the Preamble dismisses all inherited rank and power. Everyone begins with the same rights, which are GIVEN BY GOD. These rights are unalienable – they cannot be taken away. The Preamble then lists three crucial rights: the rights to Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. 

Governments are created to safeguard these rights, and not deny them. (Like we see in America today, and other world governments.) When any government begins to threaten these rights or attack them, THE PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE OR ABOLISH THE GOVERNMENT. They may then CREATE A NEW GOVERNMENT, one that will GUARANTEE THEIR SAFETY AND HAPPINESS.

A government should NOT be changed unless there is an important reason. If the government’s flaws are minor or short-lived, they should be forgiven. People naturally prefer to endure bad government for as long as they can, instead of changing a system with which they are familiar. But when a government consistently acts like a TYRANNY (unreasonable harsh rule), robbing the people of their freedom, it is the people’s right and responsibility to change it. 

The Declaration then says that this is the situation in America. King George had committed a series of crimes against the American colonists, harming their interests and taking away their freedom, trying to establish a tyranny over them. The Declaration then presents the colonists’ 27 grievances against the King to prove this. 

We are now watching an investigation of America’s leaders on crimes they have been committing and still are. So, given our Declaration of Independence, WHAT SHALL BE DONE BY “WE THE PEOPLE?”

*Taken from the books: THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE and THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES by Floyd G. Cullop. COMMON LAW HANDBOOK FOR JUROR’S, SHERIFF’S, BAILIFF’S, AND JUSTICES’S by WE THE PEOPLE – NATIONAL LIBERTY ALLIANCE.

Parts taken from the booklet "Common Law Handbook," National Liberty Alliance: If we the people can reinstate justice and demand that elected officials and bureaucrats obey the law or be indicted, we would have then succeeded in reinstating the Constitution! Only the People can stand up and defend the Constitution because the Constitution cannot defend itself, and bureaucrats will never do it.

In a stunning 6-3 decision, Justice Antonin Scalia who died in 2016, in writing for the majority [of supreme court justices], confirmed that the American grand jury is neither part of the judicial, executive nor legislative branches of government, but instead belongs to the People. It is in effect a 4th branch of government "governed" and administered to directly by and on behalf of the American people, and its authority emanates from the BILL of RIGHTS. (United States vs. Williams)

Justice Scalia was described as the intellectual anchor for the originalist and textualist position in the U.S. Supreme Court's conservative wing. For catalyzing an originalist and textualist movement in American law (true meaning of our Constitution), he has been described as one of the most influential jurists of the twentieth century, and one of the most important justices in the history of the Supreme Court.

The People have it in their power to disarm and defeat the enemy of LIBERTY both foreign and domestic if they only understood the 'principles' of freedom and stand upon them. To take political power is to control our elected representatives by bringing them into obedience through 'fear of the people,' and is accomplished by understanding the office of and becoming an elected committeeman, and then executing the powers, it's that simple!

But to successfully apply political and judicial power you must have a sense of justice and mercy which is synonymous with VIRTUE, and to get virtue you need to have a relationship with your Creator. If everyone exercised these principles America cold shake off the chains or tyranny, reinstate our Republic, and bring down the NWO literally overnight. (This ends quotes from the handbook.)

"The common theme in conspiracy theories about a New World Order (NWO) is that a secretive power elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring to eventually rule the world through an authoritarian one-world government—which will replace sovereign nation-states—and an all-encompassing propaganda whose ideology hails the establishment of the New World Order as the culmination of history's progress." CONSPIRACY THEORY? Right.

We know from reading the Word of God that there WILL BE a "new-world-order" but under the last anti-Christ, Satan finally personified, and referred to as the coming Messiah (impersonator/counterfeit). He will set himself up in Jerusalem's temple and commit the prophesied "abomination that causes desolation." (Read what Jesus tells us about this time in Matthew 24.)

We are watching our current adminstration put America into the United Nations - leaving us without our "sovereignty" and our "independence," both of which are from God. This is the 'progression' of coming to what the LORD calls "the end," meaning: the end of all evil and rebellion to God and His Son - with the second coming of Jesus Christ to strike down the nations and reign 1K years on this earth. HE WILL throw the "false Messiah" a.k.a. the dragon/ancient serpent/devil/Satan - off Jerusalem's throne and into prison for that 1K years as God's Son reigns with HIS glorious GOVERNMENT for our world. (Isaish 9:6-7 and Revelations 19:1 - 20:10)

"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and FOREVER. The zeal of the Lord Almighty WILL accomplish this." Isaiah 9:6-7

George Washington warned us against 'political parties,' each being devoted to separate party positions. He said, "they only succeed in pitting one group against another." We are seeing a very bold 'division' in our country today!

Why does the Left (now controlling the democrat party) hate our Constitution? Because it is rooted in what 'God says in His Word' in how to live with each other (righteous self-governing families), God-given rights and freedoms protected by law, keeping the peace (laws and order) and providing true justice (protecting the innocent), and at times showing mercy (pardoning). God, family, country. They hate this reality. They have designed their own reality, which is simply 'fantasy' not reality; yet another "wind of teaching," that blows away with bad results.

"...Hold on to the Constitution and the Republic for which it stands, for if the American constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world." Daniel Webster

"Goverments are instituted among Men, deriving their Just powers from the consent of the governed."

"Justice and judgment are the habitation of Thy Throne; mercy and truth shall go before Thy Face." Psalm 89:14

AMERICA NEEDS THE LORD! Reading Ezekiel chapter 14 this morning and 1 John chapter 5, I see how our nation is at a critical crossroads of choosing what path to take and then to stay on: the path being set by the wicked in power, or the path of righteousness being the path of how we are to live and govern GOD'S RIGHTEOUS AND JUST WAY, so that we be favored by Him once again, blessed by Him and feared again by other nations whose leaders disobey and even hate God.

Here's what GOD says to us: “If a country sins against Me by being unfaithful to Me, and I stretch out My hand against it to cut off its food supply and send famine upon it and kill its people and their animals, even if these three men—Noah, Daniel and Job were in it, they could save ONLY themselves by their own righteousness.” (Noah, Daniel and Job perservered with God through it all, and were victorious.)
God continues: “If I send wild beasts through that country and it’s left childless, and it becomes desolate so that no one can pass through it because of the beasts, as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, even if these three men were in it, they could not save their own sons or daughters. They ALONE would be saved, but the land would be desolate."
“Or if I bring a sword (war) against that country and say, ‘Let the sword pass throughout the land,’ and I kill its people and their animals, as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, even if these three men were in it, they could NOT save their own sons or daughters. They ALONE would be saved."
“Or if I send a plague into that land and pour out My wrath on it through bloodshed, killing its people and their animals, as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, even if Noah, Daniel and Job were in it, they could save neither son nor daughter. They would save ONLY themselves by THEIR righteousness (obedient faith in the LORD).”
“For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: ‘Yet there will be some survivors—sons and daughters [of faith's righteousness] who will be brought out of it…. You will be consoled when you see their faithful conduct and their right actions, for you will know that I have done nothing in that nation without cause, declares the Sovereign LORD.’”

The God of ALL creation, works THROUGH His creation to wake up people and draw them to Himself, TO HIS SON, the ONLY SAVIOR of this sin-sick world. Our founding fathers believed in the LORD, and trusted Him to guide them and show them how to establish a God-fearing sovereign free and prosperous nation. God will not be mocked - as we see happening in our nation today, and is why we have all kinds of ways that are hurting us and destroying our land. We are being severely disciplined, but for our 'good' future, and you can believe it or not. God's WORD is TRUE and FAITHFUL.

"We know that anyone 'born of God' (by faith in His Son) does not continue to sin; Jesus Christ - God's Son, keeps them safe, and the evil one (with all his active worshippers) cannot harm them. We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of Satan, also known as the devil. We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us UNDERSTANDING, so that we may KNOW HIM WHO IS TRUE. And we are IN HIM WHO IS TRUE by being in God's Son Jesus Christ. HE IS THE TRUE GOD AND ETERNAL LIFE....This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God our Father and carrying out HIS commands."

Praying for our country to return to the LORD and His Word.

This morning as I was praising my Lord for who He is, I thought about His Holiness, and my shortage of it. Because He is Holy, and commands me (His child) to be holy – He disciplines me as a true Father, while I live now. And, because He is Holy, He must and will judge the dead and the living at His appointed time.  His holiness will judge the wicked and rebellious without any mercy; for all unbelievers had more than enough timely opportunities, while they lived, to respond openly and eagerly to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. But for the believer in Jesus Christ, born of His Spirit and Word, God’s holiness disciplines us now while we live on the earth for His good purpose. Sinners saved by God’s grace, continue to live out the rest of their lives on earth by that same GRACE?

“Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die, this Scripture will be fulfilled: Death is swallowed up in victory.’”    1 Corinthians 15:54  

It’s not easy to live for the Lord PERFECTLY. That’s why we are disciplined as children by our Father. We all have the natural tendency to serve our sin-nature, and so we must learn to die to it, and live unto Christ our Lord by His indwelling Spirit poured into us - so that we can.

“Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give yourselves completely to God, for you were dead, but now you have NEW life. So use your whole body as an instrument to do what is right for the glory of God.”  Romans 6:13

“For the time has come for judgment, and it must begin with God’s household. And if judgment begins with us (now), what terrible fate awaits those (later at the judgment) who have never obeyed God’s Good News?” (1 Peter 4:17)  “Anyone whose name was not found written in the Lamb’s Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:15

I am so very thankful to my Father God that He ‘followed me,’ watching over me with His mercy until that day, when He knew I was ready for His love. I responded eagerly and gratefully to His Spirit’s conviction to repent, and to His gospel’s invitation to “come just as I am.” Now I ‘follow the Lord’ who gave Himself for me on that cross, and not only for me, but for all who would believe in Him.

“They will walk with Me in white, for they are worthy. Those who are victorious will be clothed in white. I will never erase their names from the Book of Life, but I will announce before my Father and His angels that they are MINE.” Revelation 3:4

Have you ever heard how when you take a black rock, cover it with red cellophane transparent paper, and then with a flashlight – shine the light on that rock – to see that the rock is now white, not black?  Because of the blood of Jesus Christ over me – I appear white as snow to my Father God.  

“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been ‘born again,’ because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay. And through our faith, God is protecting us by His power until we receive this salvation, which is ready to be revealed on the last day for all to see.  So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though we must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that our faith [in Christ Jesus] is genuine. 1 Peter 1:3-7
