Scriptures: Luke 4:4, James 1:22-25, Galatians 5:1, Romans 12:19, 1 Corinthians 15:33, Acts 3:22, Deuteronomy 16:18:20, Deuteronomy 32:3-4, Exodus 23:1-9, Deuteronomy 27:14-26, 2 Corinthians :4 , Galatians 6

A Nation's Liberty and Freedom Are a Gift from God.

Christian Liberty

Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, [ and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

Men Live Free by Hearing, Listening to, and Adhering to the Words of God.
Man does not live, "Free", by bread alone but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God.(Matthew 4:4)
Bread meaning: Fighting, Money, Capitalism, Socialism, Feminism, Homosexuality, Immorality, Pornography, Drugs, Rock N' Roll, "religions", Education, Democracy, Political ways, etc.

Luke 4:4 But Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’ ”

James 1:22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

Rotten Apple, "Sinner"

Everyone has heard the statement "One rotten Apple spoils the whole bunch". But few understand how to use it correctly. In September and October the apples become ripe. The bruised and blemished ones are turned into things like Vinegar, apples for pies, and applesauce. The best ones are stored and used for every day use. Usually in sawdust or peat moss. There they are kept dry and cool. But sometimes even under the best circumstance an apple goes bad.

Spoiled, Rotten

When apples begin to decay, they emit gases. If the rotting apple is mixed in with a group of other apples, the good apples can absorb these gases and begin to rot, too.

1 Corinthians 15: 33 Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.”

Sinners are "rotten", "spoiled", "no good" like a bad apple. This popular phrase comes from this scripture and it refers to a situation in which a sinner emits demonic influence, negative demeanor or bad behavior, and it affects everyone they are around. This is the "Power" of sin. It influences you to have a similar, sin; negative attitude, or to engage in the same bad behavior.

God commands us to have nothing to do with them. (Ephesians 5:5; Colossians 3:5; Galatians 5:20; 1 John 5:21). With such a one no not to eat. 2 Thessalonians 3:6, "We command you... that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walks disorderly."

In the Old Testament God gave the Hebrews laws to live by. If some one broke a law it was the responsibility of everyone to stone this person to death and sometimes an entire family. People think God was being too severe. But one sin would hurt everyone, it would hurt the entire society and spread to everyone, like an epidemic. With this knowledge you can see how God was having them protect themselves. Sin causes sickness, disease and God would not be able to heal them, lead them, provide for them or protect them any longer. God made a covenant that if they "all" obeyed his commandments that he would bless everything they did, keep them healthy, provide and protect them from their enemies.

Today we have the same covenant with God. He writes his laws on our hearts and when we listen to the laws, (the Ten Commandments), that he wrote on our hearts he will heal us, protect us,and bless everything we do. This is easy to do when there is no one else around because sin causes us to want to, (sin), hurts others.

Acts 3:22 For Moses truly said to the fathers, ‘The LORD your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. Him you shall hear in all things, whatever He says to you. 23 And it shall be that every soul who will not hear that Prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.

I know a young man who told his mother, "Don't you ever just want to hurt others?". She answers, Yes, but my Mother wouldn't allow me too.

This is an example of someone who had a really bad case of sin. He was infected severely with demonic influences. Why? At the age of two when children begin to say "no" to their parents or when they turn three and start to throw "temper tantrums' this boy was not corrected with the power of the Ten Commandments under the influence of the "Holy Spirit". The "Holy Spirit" convicts people of their sin and leads them to God.

The Work of the Holy Spirit

John 16:5 “But now I go away to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you. 8 And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 of sin, because they do not believe in Me; 10 of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more; 11 of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

With the Holy Spirit he have would felt remorse for what he had done, realized he needs God's help to save his soul from an entire life of sin, turn to God and ask God to forgive him and empower him to do the right thing. Then he would do whatever he could to make the situation or person whole again. This is how a person becomes a new creature. "A Saint".

Many saints have failed on their road to living a Holy life before God, and end up sinning due to "one missing element" that the "Hebrews" had and our "Founding Fathers" had. "Convicting" men of sin. We obey the Ten

Commandments but we fail to use God's Power to "convict" someone who has broken a commandment of God.

Using the Power of the Holy Spirit a "Good Parent" cleans house by convicting the children of sin and making sure they are being "good". Only God is good, so a person is "good" when they are lead by God, his spirit, and the Ten Commandments.

A "good" police officer

cleans up crime, using the "Holy Spirit" and the Ten Commandments.

Those in any kind of authority must be lead by the Holy Spirit and be without sin in themselves. Obeying all Ten Commandments and be known by everyone to be an honest person that everyone can trust to tell the truth. Many police officers are guilty of sins such as ( coveting, loving money is a sin,
lying, adultery, lust, perversion, killing, stealing, coveting, fornicating, foul language, drinking heavily, drugs, manipulating, deceiving, the list goes on.)

Judge, President, Congressmen, Senator, etc.
Their job is to clean up crime not be a part of it.

People in authority cannot lie, cannot falsely accuse others, cannot be adulterers, cannot dishonor their parents, cannot have idols,
( idols meaning; the use of divination, spells, manipulation, deception, etc.) or the worship and obedience of spiritual darkness, cannot be drunken, or on drugs; they must be free of anything that would influence their minds or souls, (even wives).

Lies bring men into bondage/ slavery.

Nothing can

influence their

minds to forget the goodwill of the people and instead do things that bring them into bondage or slavery of a false God, or men- this would be indentured servant-hood, slavery, oppressing and bring harm to the people. So your leaders, Senators, Congressmen, Teachers, Police Officers cannot have an outside influence that would cause them to forget the people and through these outside influences bring people into servanthood. The Congressmen and Senators must be the most clearheaded people and not have anything that would cause the people to forget their freedom. (such as putting our nation into debt, the fake printing of federal reserve paper money). A man falls from grace, he needs to be ousted out of leadership, he can not longer be trusted to lead the people.

Anything done without Faith in God is a sin.

Faith in Action

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. 2 This is what the ancients were commended for.

3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

.........................................................

Hebrews 11:33 who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions, 34 quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies. 35 Women received back their dead, raised to life again.

American People called on the name of Jesus, the Gospel, and are saved by their faith in God to deliver us and set us free from sin. We are empowered by God's Holy Spirit. We are united by the Spirit of God to

quickly and severely punish

anyone who commits a crime

against our nation or against his fellowman.

Our unity is with one another in the spirit of one true living God. We agree with God that his laws and commandments are "Good" we agree with "God" "that vengeance is mine says the Lord"
Romans 12:19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.

Through our unity in the Holy spirit we swiftly punish those who have broken a commandment of God as God's servants of Justice. Governments are instituted by God for the punishment of evil doers and to reward those who do good by adhering to the Commandments of God. God agrees with us and we agree with him. We live peacefully with one another and with God, united by the Holy Spirit of God. Living under the laws of nature and nature's God.

"We the People", (you and I), are the Government carrying the sword of God's Vengeance!

"We are the authority."

Submit to Government

We are the government executing vengeance!

Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. 4 For he is God’s minister to you for good.

But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.

5 Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience’ sake. 6 For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God’s ministers attending continually to this very thing. 7 Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.

No one can raise their heads above another person. All are equal before God! Each of us has the "Laws of Nature and Nature's God", on the inside.
Every good American citizen has God's laws written in us, we all have God's love in us and we all desire for good to prosper and justice to prevail.

As we unite with Jesus Christ

our Savior who desire for good to

prosper and justice to prevail.

We shall be doers of the word and not just hearers: as it is written in scripture to "Use the sword of God to punish evil doers" as a united Governing people under our head Jesus Christ. We shall be God's ministers in Governing the People as written in the Holy Word to convict

and execute God's

wrath on those who do

evil.

In conclusion; Why?

Our Covenant is with God

We have a covenant with God. But the Covenant is only valid if we obey God. God agrees to protect us, provide for us, keep us in good health, lead our children to him, keep us safe. There are terms

and Conditions to the covenant.

Disobedience to Disobedience is obedience.
Repellion against Rebellion is obedience.

When we, as a member of a family, as a member of a nation, as a member of a community see someone commit a crime, (hurt someone else), or ourselves, we must see to that person being punished. We do agree together to punish each person severely to set an example and wipe sin out of our families, community and nation so with have clean families, neighbors, nations.

We all desire God's will for us to live in peace and safety. That only comes from the work of Good people, obeying God's Holy Spirit and convicting all men of sin by the power of The One True God, his Holy Spirit!!

Then God will bless everything and everyone.

You cannot bend the law for or because someone in your family, community or nation doesn't share your faith in God.

God can only keep His covenant with us when we agree

with him. We do NOT

agree with people who do not know or disagree with God.

Then God can bless us and keep his covenant with us.

Bring forth

Justice!!!! For

All!

Justice Must Be Administered

People of God must meditate on the gospel 24/7/365 to keep covenant with God. To stay Free. Also so God can keep covenant with us.

Now the community of Hebrews old and new testament, (covenant), punishes severely anyone who sins to keep our covenant with God, with Jesus leading us by his Word and Spirit. The letter of the law brings death but the law with the spirit brings LIFE! The person who has sinned has a chance to repent and turn to God and join with God by his Spirit!

People without God are going to be corrupt and the law is there to punish them when they do wrong!

Why? Because One Rotten Apple Spoils, (corrupts and destroys, the rest,) the Bunch.

When Justice is the most important thing to everyone we can live safely and peacefully, having Covenant with God knowing he is there protecting us and providing for us.

2 Corinthians 3: The Spirit, Not the Letter

4 And we have such trust through Christ toward God. 5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God, 6 who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

Galatians 6:

7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. 9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

Deuteronomy 16:18 “You shall appoint judges and officers in all your gates, which the LORD your God gives you, according to your tribes, and they shall judge the people with just judgment. 19 You shall not pervert justice; you shall not show partiality, nor take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and twists the words of the righteous.20 You shall follow what is altogether just, that you may live and inherit the land which the LORD your God is giving you.

Deuteronomy 32:3 For I proclaim the name of the LORD:

Ascribe greatness to our God.

4 He is the Rock, His work is perfect;

For all His ways are justice,

A God of truth and without injustice;

Righteous and upright is He.

Justice for All

Exodus 23:1“You shall not circulate a false report. Do not put your hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. 2 You shall not follow a crowd to do evil; nor shall you testify in a dispute so as to turn aside after many to pervert justice. 3 You shall not show partiality to a poor man in his dispute.

4 “If you meet your enemy’s ox or his donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again. 5 If you see the donkey of one who hates you lying under its burden, and you would refrain from helping it, you shall surely help him with it.

6 “You shall not pervert the judgment of your poor in his dispute. 7 Keep yourself far from a false matter; do not kill the innocent and righteous. For I will not justify the wicked. 8 And you shall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds the discerning and perverts the words of the righteous.

9 “Also you shall not oppress a stranger, for you know the heart of a stranger, because you were strangers in the land of Egypt.

Deuteronomy 27:14 The Levites shall recite to all the people of Israel in a loud voice:

15 “Cursed is anyone who makes an idol—a thing detestable to the LORD, the work of skilled hands—and sets it up in secret.”
