So What have they done?

Oh Good Lord Forgive them,

please forgive them,

they know not what they've done!

So what have they done?
Well  the saying:  'Wickedness never promotes Happiness nor Rational thought', is certainly hereby perfectly illustrated. You judge: Have they chosen freedom and happiness or total servility?

They Knew to flee Europe from over-taxation and Religious Persecution.  They sought their freedom in a newly discovered world.  And so they came and found FREEDOM, what they really wanted on this newly discovered continent of America.

It was Columbus from Spain, in 1492, who discovered the Bahamas islands and Hispaniola and then moved on southward from Mexico to south America  the great Spanish Armada did not take long to arrive and invade upon the poor trusting natives.  Sailing back to Spain with their ships literally laden with Gold treasure it did not take long before their Arch enemy the British,  Men of War Ships masquerading as pirates discovered that the Spanish ships were laden with Gold and took possession of a Spanish man of war and sailed it into London, UK, there to offer it as a gift to HRH the King and thus inform him of the rich new lands to the west.  The word now spread and other armies from Europe came head to head to spread their of lead. The Spanish, the British, the French and Portuguese now all entered the fray, to take what they may or might, without ever having to mount a real big fight.   

The Indian Native people, Lamanites all descendants from Lehi who had departed Jerusalem about 600 BC, were hopelessly unprepared for the invasion of their lands which then occurred.  They lost their lands, their Gold, their food and their freedom. They were rounded up and assigned the worst areas in which to live out their lives in Indian Reservation compounds. Thus again the Lord had taken his blessing away from his chosen people whom he had carefully led away from Jerusalem’s destruction under their King Zedikiah. The Lamanites had turned away from God and likewise, he from them. So they simply deserved His punishment.  (like unto the Jews of old, see psalms 106).

Well Britain rushed to what it thought was a huge ready-made empire, and it almost had one right here in North America. However it became over avaricious, indeed very anxious, to obtain increased taxes on the sale of its Tea from India, which resulted in what is now known as the Boston Tea Party. It was such a party. Not a sipper in sight. Yet all the tea was fully brewed in the cold water of Boston Harbour.  Such a willful waste could not be allowed to go unpunished.   His most Royal Majesty, just could not allow that. His word, alone,  was law.   So the war of rebellion started on the principle of no taxation without representation. 

The Declaration of independence was signed and adopted by the second continental congress on 4^th July 1776, and the King was duly notified.  Having fled Europe over Religious persecution and freedom from tax oppression, most all of the people were prepared to fight. All Americans were well armed. The war was on, and a new nation was born with Total tax and religious freedom, and the Bill of Rights was ratified and all 13 states unified as one Federal Government on December 15^th 1791.

However the Declaration of independence on 4th of July 1776, the day which began the process, is the day we rightfully celebrate.  For as a man thinketh, so is he. What a man can conceive and believe he can achieve.  Yes our forefathers literally conceived the very idea of freedom, They believed we could be free. So exercising faith in their belief, they signed the Declaration of Independence and fully committed themselves to the achievement of their goal.  The Bible tells us that Faith without works is dead, So knowing the scriptures well, they worked diligently to make their Idea a reality.  Just 13 states, united by a common goal whooped the might of the Great British Empire.  

With freedom from the UK achieved, we now had no common goal to keep all 13 states united.  I would like to credit General George Washington, our first President, with the idea of maintaining unity among the states.   If I stand in need of correcton, please inform me.

Each state had its own government and laws, but had experienced Royal, dictatorial like,  oppression from HRH of the UK.  Rightfully therefore they demanded certain matters be fully addressd before committing themselves to be governed by others.  Thus they demanded a ‘Bill of Rights’ and listed them in order of importance.  When all 13 States ratified that Bill, and not until then, did the United States actually become a reality under one Federal Government. 
However it is indeed the date of conception rather than the date of birth that we actually celebrate every 4^th day of July.  Praise be to God. We were firmly founded upon Good Christian principles, but have woefully set aside the Mosaic law,

In Matt 5:17,18 Think not that I have come to destroy the law or the prophet:  I am not come to destroy but to fulfill.  Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise, pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.  So why then do we dare to set aside God's laws given to us by Moses? 

Why would He pour forth blessings upon us, if we like unto the Jews of old are not willing to obey? If we too wish to worship false gods, such as Allah, Baal, Gog or Maygog or any one of a thousand other idols, would we not deserve the same punishment that He meted out to his chosen people the Jews? (see Psalms 106). Yet today He is gathering  a remnant of his chosen people back to Israel and fulfilling his promise unto Abraham.

In Deuteronomy 5 we have the law as given by God to Moses clearly set out. The promise also, that  blessings flow from obedience to that law. If our proud motto is: 'In God we trust!'  Then we must learn to obey all his commandments, we cannot just pick and choose what suits us best. We must like our forefathers, be fully committed to his plan for our lives.

So again why then do we continue to set aside some of the laws of Moses?  What does it matter you may well ask, whether we ourselves or our little babes are slaughtered by the millions.  Were we not commanded to Go Forth, Increase and  Multiply! Yes indeed we were, and we no longer obey.  We abort by the millions. Therefore we justly deserve what punishment lies ahead of us.   We justly deserve to be over-run by foreigners who would annihilate us and replace our laws with their own Sharia type laws.  God will take our land from us as he took it from the Canaanites and gave it to the Jews. As he took it from the Jews and gave it unto the Romans. As he took it from the the indigenous American Indian, the Lamanites and gave it unto Bible bearing so called Christians from Europe. At least they kept the laws of Moses and fled from the Catholic Roman Empire church and its Nationalized, Anti-Christ, Queer doctrines.

In John 10:10 we are told: ‘ I have come that you may have life and that you might have it more abundantly’.   So if this is what the Lord wants for us, a life of total abundance, Why do we  follow the thief, who comes that he may thieve, Kill and destroy our wealth and our lives?

We then descendants of those good Bible bearing Christians are blessed to be lovers of his word, in so far as we obey him. However he has not stopped us from putting our necks , into that Tax Noose from which we rightfully, fled.   We have most stupidly voted for amendment 16 which re-imposes individual taxes. We have again enslaved ourselves.  Until 1913 we the People, from the very birth of our nation, were freemen.  Now we are enslaved again with individual taxes. We are now, overtaxed paid slaves.

A Freeman is Happy. Whatever have we done? Can we again conceive, believe, and achieve, Total Tax Freedom? Congress will not help us, (too many vested interests prevail and dominate the scene).  They are preoccupied with war, defence spending and thieving from our Social Security Trust Funds... 

Winston Churchill explained: War, has a curious relationship to Democracy and limited government.
''Free Nations are: innovative, they produce new and more powerful tools, including weapons of war. 
Free Nations are: productive, wealth is generated when free people work, save, invest, and trade. These new tools or technology and this new wealth have transformed the world. This trend is led by nations who leave their people free.  They are the most innovative and productive'.  That was Sir Winston Churchill.
I can thus believe of even President  JFK or President Ronald Regan or President Donald Trump of Thinking let's: 'Make America Great Again'

So we the people must repeal amendment 16 or alternatively, instead of enjoying Freedom and living as free citizens, we can continue to live as Over-Taxed Miserable Paid Slaves,  and allow the thief  and his colleagues the Money Mongers to prevail. (see John 10:10)

·        Which is it better to be? 

·        a Slave, a paid Slave, an overtaxed paid Slave,

·        or a Happy Freeman, a Happy FREE Citizen?
