These two papers deliver historical insight into The Declaration Of Independence that has been buried or over-looked completely by history. They will expand your current perspective and sharpen the traditional historic view of this document & the man who wrote it. Where did he get his inspiration from? Who influenced how he worded it? Might there be another Founding Father whom the secular history guardians would rather not bring to light? Along with other questions that are answered, although they've never been asked? Please find the time to read the work the author of these papers worked so thoroughly and diligently to present to the public over half a century ago. God bless.

Great Article. I made this point to our local school board last week. Our teenage suicide rate is up at all time highs in a conservative county. https://rumble.com/v2c13pc-jonathan-calls-for-the-reintroduction-of-god-as-the-creator-in-surry-school.html

A great piece and you're right, you can't separate God from Government. Why didn't they just send a letter "You're not King anymore?" Maybe you have to go back in time a bit, Washington, Franklin and the rest were freemasons who gave America to King George III-signed, on paper. Changing it would take another revolution.

Interesting—I will definitely look much deeper into the Freemason connection. I've been reading (among other things) a book entitled Pied Pipers of Babylon (by Verl K Speer) which can be found for free on archive.org. It seems based on reading that book that the federalists were the ones that basically handed our sovereignty back to England on a silver platter. It seems Jefferson was against this—but, as we know, stories are conflated all the time, popular figures pretend to hold viewpoints that they don't, and so on.

Are there any sources you'd particularly recommended for looking deeper into this? Many thanks!

The Jesuits are the issue. The freemasons are under the Jesuits. In the early days of our nation there was a conflict between the freemasons and the Jesuits. https://youtu.be/4KLyl6afALE

Yes there was and there still is one.

Excellent article! We are in the midst of winning our second revolution, are we not? One as historic as our first, I believe...

In a manner of speaking yes we are.

Well written article!

A word about democracy: In this system of government the majority rules-always. In the U.S. Army Soldier's Manual, 1929 Edition democracy was defined as "mobocracy" or mob rule because there are no minority rights.

The Constitution, Article IV, Section 4 guarantees to each State a Republican form of government. A recitation of the Pledge of Allegence (to the flag) also notes "...to the Republic for which it stands..."

By the time political history had improved to the point of Blackstone's Ideas on the Common Law it was accepted that a "Republic" was a government based upon the idea also mentioned in a document (such as the Declaration or the Constitution) that minorities had rights given them by God and those rights were deserving of the same protections as majority rights.

Two simple illustrations may help the understanding:

1. You live in a country of 100 people. You own the only swimming pool in the country. The country is a democracy and 51 of the 100 people decide you must let anyone use your pool when ever they want to do so. Majority rights override minority rights and they use your pool and think of the picture in the substack article of the 4 beating the 1 with sticks if the owner of the pool tries to remove them from his pool.

2. The same basic situations as above with the exception that the country is a Republic. If 51 of the 100 people vote to use your swimming pool any time they want to do so, they still have to get your explicit permission before they put their big toe in the pool. Why? Because in a Republic the minority has the same kind of rights the majority have. Because the minority's rights, like the majority's rights come from God and God given rights trump (no pun intended) the wants of the majority.

That America is a democracy is as well designed lie that has fooled most of the citizens of this country. It is time to wake up and set the record straight.

An excellent essay. The Founders said SO many times how God is essential to our country:

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” ― John Adams

"It is impossible to govern the world without God. It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the Providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits and humbly implore his protection and favor." - George Washington

We have this absurd idea that stated somewhere in the Constitution is the phrase “separation of church and state”, when it is only part of a sentence in a private letter in 1802 from Jefferson to the Danbury, Connecticut, Baptist Association assuring them that the First Amendment would guarantee free practice of religion in the public square without any interference from the government

It became famous when Justice Hugo Black in 1947 used it in his opinion in Everson v. Board of Education, a case that states funding transportation of all students to and from their schools, including parochial schools, WAS constitutional. Then also in 1947, it was flipped and used by the Supreme Court in McCollum v. Board of Education to forbid religious instruction in public schools.

The phrase actually means the opposite of how it is being interpreted!

“The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God,” They are corrupt, and have committed abominable injustice; There is no one who does good.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭53‬:‭1‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

“Why are the nations in an uproar And the peoples devising a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand And the rulers take counsel together Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying, “Let us tear their fetters apart And cast away their cords from us!” He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them. Then He will speak to them in His anger And terrify them in His fury, saying, “But as for Me, I have installed My King Upon Zion, My holy mountain.” “I will surely tell of the decree of the Lord: He said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance, And the very ends of the earth as Your possession. You shall break them with a rod of iron, You shall shatter them like earthenware.’ ” Now therefore, O kings, show discernment; Take warning, O judges of the earth. Worship the Lord with reverence And rejoice with trembling. Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way, For His wrath may soon be kindled. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭12‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Spiritual growth and expanding the understanding of God is dependent upon the maturing human mind. Pursuing humanistic ideals based on truth (using experimentation and observation without prejudice towards outcome) is necessary. These truths we discover in the material world must be consistent however, and apply broadly across all of humanity in order to be proclaimed correct. As an example, humans say they agree that intentional fatal neglect, physical abuse, or murder of an infant or child is wrong and must be discouraged or adjudicated. Yet war, famine, child sex and labor, abortion, and even infanticide has been legalized or allowed under present governments. This existing inconsistency within humanistic thinking of what is correct, or what is incorrect, can be attributed to a prejudice that defies science, or truth that even humans say they agree on. Even without God, this division alone is an obstacle to our attempts to settle on humanity's morality. Spiritual understanding develops alongside maturing human minds, not independent of them.

Absolutely, spot on. Really stated well.

I notice that the left constantly speaks about "our Democracy" and I am always yelling at the radio..."Constitutional Republic". Rush Limbaugh used to illustrate in a way which even the sort of asleep on the left might understand: "a democracy is a sheep and 2 wolves deciding what to have for lunch".

I have an Australian girlfriend. My parents and I met Barbara and her family on the British ship, Oriana, coming from Hawaii to the mainland in 1962 when we were 17. Barbara and I became friends. She and her family came back to the US in 1965. I was her maid-of-honor in Adelaide, AU in 1968. One of their family friends moved to Canada and married there.

Shortly after 911, Barbara, now a widow, was visiting me in WV. MJ came down from Hamilton, Ont. to pick her up for a visit. The 2 sat in my home talking about the stiffening of the northern border. They allowed as how they were glad not to be citizens of the United States. I kept my mouth shut.

I think of that so often, especially now. They had no understanding of what our Declaration of Independence and Constitution w/ the Bill of Rights really means and what it spells out for us. That Bill of Rights is proving crucial right now.

Canada under Trudeau (probably "elected" the same way as Biden), is being tightened down day by day. They have no 2nd Amendment, thus they have no 1st amendment. The government giveth and the government taketh away.

Barbara will be 79 this month as she is a few months my elder. She spoke in a recent email of experiencing "breathlessness". I have to be careful as to what I say as they are monitored. She was vaccinated.

I want to yell to both Barbara in AU and MJ in CAN, "how is that working for you now?" But, of course, that would be not only unkind, but after the fact. We three are Christians. I think that they are more traditional while I have moved on to a more serious and even following some in the prophetic realm.

As several say, Israel was chosen by God, but America CHOSE God. America shall be saved. And that will spill over around the world.

Yes indeed ! My favorite video...I send this out to those who are not educated in today's Indoctrination Educational System. This video entitled POLITICAL SYSTEMS 101: Basic Forms of Government Explained...It is Excellent :

Yahweh has all power. Christ was given all authority from Yahweh.Authority flows downward never upwards. The constitution claims power over its subjects,it’s a false power that has no relationship to Christ and His Ecclesia. The U.S. government is Roman/ Babylonian in nature and is at war with Christ and His Kingship.
