Revision as of 15:23, 23 November 2022
If in the "bondage of Egypt" 20% of the labor of the Israelites belonged to the government of pharaoh and they called it slavery then because in most countries today more than 20% of the labor of the people belongs to the government then slavery is still legal. It was only "involuntary servitude" that is illegal. Voluntary servitude is still legal. So through covetous practices you can still become "human resources" or what Peter called merchandise.
The Bondage of Egypt was the result of eating at the table of the Pharaoh and going into debt where a portion of your labor belonged to the State. This is because the table of the authoritarian State is a Snare. Returning to the Bondage of Egypt is when the people are again entangled in the elements of the world and returning to The mire.
An ancient way to enslave a nation of people is to tempt them to with the covetous practices of socialism which that makes them merchandise and curses their children.
This new status brought them into what was called a Corvee bringing them under tribute. How it works is explained in: Employ vs Enslave. Seeking the kingdom of God is following the righteous Way of Christ and the perfect law of liberty without engaging in the covetous practices of the world.
If you desire "entitlements" of any kind from governments of men who exercise authority one over the other to obtain any benefits from welfare to public schools or health care to social security then you are an advocate of slavery and are not following The Way of Christ.

Bondage of Egypt
What was the "Bondage of Egypt"?
The place Egypt
Egypt, a country linking northeast Africa with the Middle East, dates to the time of the pharaohs. Millennia-old monuments still sit along the fertile Nile River Valley, including the colossal Pyramids and Sphinx at Giza and the hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings tombs in Luxor. The capital, Cairo, is home to Ottoman landmarks such as Muhammad Ali Mosque.
The word Egypt
The word translated Egypt in the Bible is Mitsrayim from the Hebrew word matsowr רוצמ MemTzadikVavReish[1] meaning besieged places or a place where we were besieged by masters.
It is from the Hebrew word tsuwr TzadikVavReish[2] which is the Hebrew word meaning "to bind, besiege, confine". By adding the letter Mem which has to do with something that flows that is automatic. That which binds becomes like water flowing everywhere in the land.
The same word Egypt which means bondage is connected to other words that also begin with the letter Mem, like Altars and Tribute.
The slaves of Egypt were under a constant state of their labor flowing to the government as a form of sacrifice.
Sacrifice of Egypt
Egypt, Altars, and Tribute have to do with the idea of sacrifice. The people in the "Bondage of Egypt" had to sacrifice a portion of their labor to the government of Pharaoh every year.
The Greek word Φαραώ Pharao is of a foreign origin.[3] But when he offered benefits in hard times, he gained more and more power over the Israelites and all of the people who lived in the land Egypt. Those who signed up for his benefits system of social welfare through the power of the State became a part of his house[4], and he became the benefactor or ruling father of the people.
The Israelites went into bondage because they depended upon the Pharaoh to be their Benefactor. The Pharaoh had no authority over the people of all of Egypt at first as a ruler. Originally the Pharaoh was not a ruler who could force contributions of the people of that land for their welfare. He was naked of that authority. Later we would see the Levites were also said to be naked and they needed the people to sew them "breeches" or "underwear" which represented the idea of a limited covering of authority.
The people became legally enslaved by their consent accepting the Benefits of his government. The sold themselves and their children as a surety for debt. In such systems of all the people having One purse, what should be for your welfare becomes a snare.[5]
The Israelite people were in the Bondage of Egypt and owed tribute to the government of Pharaoh in the form of a portion or percentage of their labor. Like other systems of of bondage a Corvee system of service to a government is form of "voluntary servitude" that is just the same as slavery if the subject is surety for debt because the end result is the same.
The bondage is voluntary because it is by consent but if there is debt one may not just be able to UN-volunteer.
Only if the Pharaoh exceeded what was "just, right and fair" according to the terms was that servitude was called oppression.
That bondage in the beginning was just because Joseph's brothers sold him into bondage and so it was only right for them to go into bondage,too. As we judge to do to other become just if it is done by other to us.
Setting the captive free
In the Kingdom of God, the tithe flows through freewill offerings of charity of, for and by the people of society, but in the cities of Cain and Nimrod and Egypt they flow by force of the men who call themselves Benefactors and who exercise authority one over the other in the form of taxes. These men are the Fathers of the earth. The same was true with Herod's system of Corban, which John the Baptist and Christ opposed.
That bondage of Egypt was simple and consisted of at least two elements.
The first, is they might have livestock and land but they did not own what today would be called the "beneficial interest" to the exclusion of all else. They shared ownership in a sort of legal title. They had an "apparent title" but the Pharaoh actually held what could be called the "equitable title" today but that legal title “carries no beneficial interest.”
The pervasive acceptance of a legal title subject to use tax instead of the untaxed fee simple as a true and actual title sought by many early Americans[6] but most modern Americans do not know nor understand the process of their own subjugation was the result of abandoning principles and precepts explained in the Bible by God and the prophets. The abandonment of just weights and measures, what might be called "Real money", set the stage for the New Deal.
We were warned to have "just weights" and measures lest we return to the "Bondage of Egypt"[7] where we had given up the lawful ownership to our property. That bondage allowed the government of Pharaoh to impose a use tax on the property we only held a "legal title" to and eventually even upon our own labor.
Another one of the elements to their bondage is that the people did not own an exclusive right to their labor either. While the people still owned at least 4/5ths of their labor, at least 1/5 or 20% belonged to the pharaoh.
We were told by God that we were never to return to this type of relationship again nor should we give that power to a government.[8]
Egypt was one form of government where the people were a part of a Corvee owing their labor to the government. God told His people (and us) to never return to Egypt nor were their leaders to do any thing to cause the people to return to that bondage.[8]
This was to be written down in their Constitution if they ever elected a leader who could rule over them. Unfortunately the people of the world were not taught this by the ministers of the Modern Church.
They have not been taught the Weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith which include caring for the needs of our neighbors and the widows and orphans of our society through Pure Religion in matters of health, education, and welfare. We are NOT to provide for the needy of society through the Covetous Practices and the men who call themselves benefactors but who exercise authority one over the other like the socialists do.
The Way of Christ was like neither the way of the world of Rome nor the governments of the gentiles who depend on those fathers of the earth through force, fear and fealty who deliver the people back in bondage again like they were in Egypt. Christ's ministers and true Christians do not depend upon systems of social welfare that force the contributions of the people like the corban of the Pharisees which made the word of God to none effect. Many people have been deceived to go the way of Balaam and the Nicolaitan and out of The Way of Christ and have become workers of iniquity.
The Christian conflict with Rome in the first century Church appointed by Christ was because they would not apply to the fathers of the earth for their free bread but instead relied upon a voluntary network providing a daily ministration to the needy of society through Faith, Hope, and Charity by way of freewill offerings of the people, for the people, and by the people through the perfect law of liberty in Free Assemblies according to the ancient pattern of Tuns or Tens as He commanded.
The modern Christians are in need of repentance.
