GOVERNMENT AUTHORITY NO LONGER COMES FROM
"WE THE PEOPLE"
Real people don't let others handle their affairs - they handle
their own affairs.
Real people will protect themselves, they don't need their servants'
permission. The Declaration of Independence stated that governments
are instituted among men to secure unalienable God given rights. The writers
of the Declaration, "... with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine
Providence" pledged their lives, fortunes and honor to protect themselves
and their rights. They tried to secure the blessings of liberty against
the brutal force of their (British=Roman) government. At that time it was
the most powerful government on earth.
Real people handled their own affairs before they created your civil
government, and they will handle their own affairs now. They can defend
their family, their property, and their community without permission from
a servant. In a Republic, people are the Lawgivers who created civil government.
God delegated this responsibility to them, and they created a government
to enforce God's laws. All government authority comes from them. Real people
must take the law into their own hands. Created persons cannot take the
law into their own hands. Which one are you?
US Supreme Court in Luther v. Borden 48 US 1:
"... The governments are but trustees acting under derived
authority and have no power to delegate what is not delegated to them.
But the people, as the original fountain might take away what they have
delegated and intrust to whom they please. They have the whole title and
as absolute proprietors have the right of using or abusing."
That's right! No one can delegate an authority that he himself does not
have. All government power comes from the people who created it. There
is no government power that did not come from its creators. If real people
can't do something, then they could not have delegated that authority to
the government they created. I repeat: If you cannot do something then
you cannot delegate, in a written constitution, an authority you don't
have.
IF YOU CANNOT DO SOMETHING THEN YOUR GOVERNMENT CANNOT DO IT EITHER. You
delegated the authority to possess nuclear bombs, prescribe drugs, and
execute criminals because you have these rights, unless you somehow waived
your rights. Again: All authority comes from God. If you fail to
control your creature, you are irresponsible. You will suffer the natural
consequence of your irresponsibility: Domination.
What did you sign that gave away your rights? Could it be that you agreed
to an alternate Lordship? Will this sin go unpunished?
Throughout the Bible, godly nations prosper, then turn from God, then
are quickly taken into captivity by pagan nations. Conquering nations are
instruments of His discipline (Isa 8:4-10, 10:5-6, 45:1-3, Jer 5:15-18,
20:4-5, 24:10, Eze 21:15-23, 30:24-26, 32:11-15). Is America going to be
any different, or did God change?
Here is a quote from John Philpot Curran, 1790: "The condition upon
which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition
if he breaks, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime."
US Supreme Court in Fairbanks v. U.S. 181 US 283:
"Powers denied are not to be implied; they are to be obtained,
if at all, from and in the same manner provided by, those who originally
granted the enumerated powers, but who at the same time denied powers."
It is your duty (not just a right) to control your subordinates, wards,
children and property. And this includes anyone who acknowledges their
servitude by worshiping you with an oath (such as an oath of office), or
by allowing you to manage their affairs. You might just want to regulate
their medicine, guns, pollutants, home repairs, seat belts, marriage, children,
dogs, etc.
In the Luther case quoted above, the Supreme Court said that,
as absolute proprietors of your government, you could use or abuse your
servants, and that you might take away what you have delegated and intrust
to whom you please.
Here is a quote from Abraham Linclon: "Our safety, our liberty, depends
upon preserving the Constitution of the United States as our fathers made
it inviolate. The people of the United States are the rightful masters
of both congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution, but
to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution."
Just as the Supreme Court confirmed, all government authority must be
delegated from you. If you have the authority to posses nuclear bombs,
and prescribe drugs, and execute criminals then you can take care of these
essential tasks yourself, and you can also ask your civil servants to help
you, if you feel that they can be trusted. Since your Constitution prohibits
a standing army, I would suggest not giving them any bombs. Alexander Hamilton
in Federalist Paper No. 29 said that the armament in the hands of
the citizens was to be up-to-date and equal to that of the Army, and that
there should be "a large body of citizens, little if at all inferior
to [the military] in discipline and the use of arms, who stand ready to
defend their own rights and those of their fellow citizens."
Now the topic of Non-Authority.
You cannot expand your authority by delegating powers you do not have.
All authority is delegated, and your government servants cannot do something
that they are not delegated (i.e., you can fail to delegate, as in the
Luther
case, or you can further prohibit powers as was mentioned in the Fairbanks
case). Perhaps you could even ban their bibles (remember that this servitude
"... is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religionv ...").
Then how did your civil servant subordinates get the authority to expand
their powers? How can they do things that they are not delegated? Things
you do not have the authority to do. Examples: allow sodomy, adultery,
pornography for the library, divorce (can you delegate authority to cancel
your neighbors vows to God?), authorize usury, seize property from those
known to be innocent, prohibit self-medication, deny parents rights, buy
Maplethorp art, etc.
And now, even abortion clinics in high schools? The fruit of the womb
is God's reward, Psalms 127:3. Shedding innocent blood is a certain way
to provoke God's wrath. God hates the shedding of innocent blood, Proverbs
6:16-17. Ever since Abel's murder, shed blood cries out to God, Genesis
4:10. God promised to abandon, and indeed has always abandoned, any nation
that allows shedding of innocent blood or sexual immorality: Numbers 35:33,
Leviticus 18, Jeremiah 7:6 (although I can't explain sacrifice of the innocent
in 2nd Sam 21:9). And yes, abortion is mentioned in the Bible. Acts 7:19
uses the Greek word brephos meaning a fetus.
Your nation has been surrendered to benefactors. Your civil 'servants'
no longer work for you.
Can government ban the Bible from their subjects? William Tyndale was
executed, by civil government, for translating the Bible into English.
It will happen again. At least Tyndale was a subject. In the near future,
those who refuse to become subjects will be executed. Revelation 20:4 says
that people will be beheaded for refusing the mark. (by the way, Tyndale
was strangled).
In The US Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade (93 SCt 705)
the court correctly stated that the 14th Amendment does not protect
the unborn. Many people have used this to conclude, falsely, that your
Constitution's enumerated powers somehow allows you to murder the non-born,
without giving any thought that this logic would also allow murder of the
non-citizen. This case is NOT a citizenship case. It is irrelevant that
the 14th Amendment has a definition of federal citizens. The Preamble
of your U.S. Constitution secures the blessings of liberty to themselves
and their posterity. Their as-yet-unborn posterity. The abortion apologists
are claiming that the preamble has not secured the blessings of liberty
to the posterity. The shedding of innocent blood is now a protected right
for those who accept this federal citizenship. In Appendix
C, I discuss this 14th Amendment Citizenship
