Police powers
Police Powers resting with governments of the world reportedly to promote the health, safety, morals and general welfare of society originated with the people. They come from the God given rights of the people and among them are the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of righteousness which brings happiness and its fruit.[4] But men have endowed governments with those powers and more that was once their individual responsibility and religious duty.
A government of the people, for the people and by the people may perish[5] through their appetite for benefits and the dainties of rulers, by neglect, apathy, and sloth as the masses begin to degenerate because they lack knowledge[6] of the way.[7]

Kingdom Capitalism
The exploitation of man is a choice in Capitalism but exploitation of men is built into systems of Socialism because it takes away individual choice.
The politics of the socialist oppresses his neighbor because its bread is full of leaven.
In his world "a man is not a man but a member, an instrument, a thing.”[8]

Q & A 7 Social safety Snare
Download Recording #2
Social Safety Snare or press play
The social safety net of rulers are snares but the social safety net of Christ sets the captive free.
Can you be a "good" Jew, Christian, or even a Muslim and a socialist at the same time?
We ask that because the God of Abraham, Moses, and even Jesus said "Thou shall not covet anything that is thy neighbors."[9]
And isn't socialism a system where you desire something your neighbor produced to be given you by men who exercise authority?[10]
Isn't that covetous?https://preparingyou.com/wiki/Covetous_practices
How was early Israel supported by freewill offerings and a Voluntary society of freemen who gave tithes according to the service of their chosen ministers of government?[11]
Question from caller about the tax:
Caller asked 20min:
Was it tribute or a temple tax?
Matthew 22:17 "Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?"
https://preparingyou.com/wiki/Pay_tribute
Caller mentions at 23min
Caller thinks they were set free or saved from the system in Judea because the temple was destroyed. NOT true.
We were saved from social compact legally established when that system of Corban the Pharisees Herod set up was breached by Jesus the king. The people were saved from it by repentance and seeking the kingdom of God and His righteousness which led to the Baptism of Jesus's apostles which got them kicked out of that civil system of Herod and his government temple which was a snare.
The temple was destroyed because of the wickedness of the Pharisees and Herod because their Corban was full of leaven. And the Pharisees denounced Israel when the denounced Jesus and accepted Caesar as their king.
John 19:15 "But they cried out, Away with [him], away with [him], crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar."
Jesus was a stranger to those collecting what had become a tax at that time. https://preparingyou.com/wiki/Pay_tribute#Sons_and_strangers
The Temple was an abomination and Jesus would not contribute to its maintenance with a tax besides He knew its destruction was coming.
Christ and Moses wanted altars and a temple made of living stones.
https://preparingyou.com/wiki/Pay_tribute#False_king
The coin was given by a fish not by the purse of Jesus nor Peter and only because Peter misspoke. https://preparingyou.com/wiki/Pay_tribute#No_king_but_a_yes_is_a_yes
Caller mentions 25+ min
Mark of the Beast
31 min mention 3-Steps to bondage

Romans 13
https://preparingyou.com/wiki/Romans_13
37 min caller is still thinking the tax was owed and paid by Jesus or His disciples. Still does not see the temple was an abomination. The fish paid the tax and only because Peter spoke incorrectly but had to make his yes yes. https://preparingyou.com/wiki/Pay_tribute#No_king_but_a_yes_is_a_yes
It appears the coin in the mouth was at least the value of two Drachmas but the text says στατῆρα statēra. A stater was a Greek measure of weight and could be equal to two, three, or four drachmas in silver.

Colossians 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication[16][17], uncleanness[18], inordinate affection[19], evil[20] concupiscence[21], and covetousness[22][9][15], which is idolatry[23][17]: not hear no see
Covetousness and covetous practices is iniquity because it is idolatry.

Freedom is a right
"Freedom is the Right to Choose, the Right to create for oneself the alternatives of Choice. Without the possibility of Choice, and the exercise of Choice, a man is not a man but a member, an instrument, a thing.” Archibald MacLeish
Mark 12:27 "He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err."
John 9:1 "And as [Jesus] passed by, he saw a man which was blind from [his] birth."
John 9:22 "These [words] spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue."
John 9:37 And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

Lindsey Halagan
James Comey and Latisha James case The Judged issued a dismissal based on lawyer Lindsey Halagan must be appointed by the district court. This is a fraudulent statement therefore if it is a fraudulent disqualification by Judge Curry of the district court the statute of limitation count did not run out.
Judge Curry claim in her judgment that only the district court can appoint is not in the statute.
See
28 usc 546, “d....c)(2), the district court for such district may appoint a United States attorney to serve until the vacancy is filled.”
The "district may appoint a United States attorney" Nothing in the statute removed the ability to appoint by the attorney general nor exclusively given to the "district court for". This makes Judge Cameron Curry's dismal claim void and Lindsey Halagan was fraudulent disqualification. Read the statute. This is judicial incompetence if not misconduct.[27]
The 9th circuit court may let this false disqualification stand but then it could be appealed to the Supreme Court but the Court may not hear the case. There are other plans afoot. U.S. Code Title 18. Crimes and Criminal Procedure § 3288 would give you another 6 month and they may try all the men and women as conspirators in a more conservative state. Judge Curry may now have some exposure now. Https://www.facebook.com/share/v/17YPNFaSYc/
The Seditious 6
18 U.S.C. § 2387 is a section of the U.S. Code that prohibits activities affecting the armed forces, making it a crime to distribute written or printed material that advises, counsels, or urges insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty by any member of the military or naval forces. Conviction for violating this statute can result in a fine, imprisonment of up to ten years, or both, and may make the individual ineligible for federal employment for five years.
• Prohibited activities:
"The law specifically targets the distribution of written or printed matter that incites military members to act against their duty." There video is a form of printed word and often transcribe all that is spoken.
Mark Kelly did not say Follow the law. He and the other suggested that there were already or might be unlawful orders in an atmosphere where the media is constantly saying the president is being unlawful. To add fuel to this irresponsible rhetoric is an incitement advises, counsels, or urges insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty by any member of the military or naval forces.”
Trump did not call for their execution nor did he say don't respect the constitution.
Inciting rebellion is a crime under U.S. law, specifically insurrection and seditious conspiracy. The crime is covered by federal laws, such as 18 U.S. Code § 2383 for insurrection and 18 U.S. Code § 2384 for seditious conspiracy
The Pentagon has announced a review into Senator Kelly's conduct, stating that military retirees remain subject to laws like 18 U.S.C. § 2387, which "prohibits actions intended to interfere with the loyalty, morale, or good order and discipline of the armed forces." to encourage or stir up (violent or unlawful behavior).
In federal law, "incitement" is defined contextually, but generally involves "urging or instigating others to riot" or "to solicit, command, induce, or otherwise endeavor to persuade" someone to commit a crime.
Supreme Court has set a high standard for incitement in cases like *Brandenburg v. Ohio*, which is used to distinguish incitement from protected speech. Speech is considered incitement only if it meets the following criteria:
- It is directed toward producing or likely to produce imminent unlawful action.
- It is likely to result in such action.
- The action advocated for is unlawful and imminent.
The key distinction is that incitement requires a direct call for imminent, unlawful action, while mere advocacy of illegal actions or beliefs is not considered incitement unless it meets the Brandenburg standard.

You were not "caught up".
You planned, were coached, and did it irresponsibly for political purposes.
If he genuinely cared about the troops their little group would have had a prepared statement with all the caveats and legal limitations that should go with such an irresponsible and politically volatile statement.
It was an irresponsible and shameful political stunt.

The purpose of government according to the Constitution's Preamble, is to "form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity" not "improve the material condition of all people". Why? Because the government cannot do that without the power to take from one class and give to another, the foundational principle of "covetous practices" which degenerates the masses and gives rise to tyrants. https://preparingyou.com/wiki/Covetousness

Separation of Church and State
Is there a traditional separation of Church and the State?
The idea of this separation of Church and State is said to be "philosophical and jurisprudential" by some. While others see it as a "principle" and a "concept" that "is rooted in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.[28]
To understand complex topics it would essential to clearly define the terms needed for a rational discussion of this topic.
- What is the differance between the "state" and the institutional State and what power institutes it?
- And probably most important what are rights and where do they come from originally?
- Do Rights not come from God?
- Is God not the Same yesterday as He is today?[29]

Occupying the Kingdom
- With Brother Gregory
Someone called in during the show and said Revelation tells us to worship Jesus and if we do then we are Idolaters but he seems to not understand either of the Testaments and says he does not follow the New Testament. If he understood the Old, the Torah and know Moses he would have recognized the New and know of Jesus who was the Christ. His claim that Revelation says to "worship Jesus" which he also claims makes us Idolaters seems to be false.[32] He did not give the verse but seemed to be making a reference to worshipping the lamb. The term Lamb appears 27 times in Revelation. Revelation 5 talks about a worthy lamb and Revelation 6 talks about the wrath of a lamb which opens a seal. Revelation 7 mentions a lamb and a throne. Revelation 12 mentions the blood of the lamb'. Revelation 13 verse 8 does mention worship and the lamb but the context is not how the caller quoted it.Christ is clear about who should be worshipped.[32]
It is very clear that the text of chapter 13 is about those who dwell upon the earth who worship him and "him" is the beast which was given power by the dragon who gave the beast power and spoke blasphemies and made war upon the saints and cause the people to worship the beast.[33]
Common sense of the Kingdom
Download Recording #1
Common sense of the Kingdom or press play
To understand the common sense that is contained in the Gospel of the kingdom we need to understand the way preached and explained in the Logos of Christ which is the word of God.
There are many words used in this show which people may not understand.
Is leaven[34] of the Old and New Testaments that Moses[35] and Jesus warned[36] us about yeast or oppression.[37]
Is the tables of your welfare provided by men who exercise authority or by men of Charity.
The former is a snare and a trap and the latter sets the captive free.
The former makes you merchandise and will curse children and the latter creates the social bonds of a free society.
The former table is set by benefactors who use force and covetousness and is idolatry.[15] The other is dependent upon faith, hope and charity which is love and leads to the kingdom of God and His righteousness through the perfect law of liberty.
"Freedom is the Right to Choose, the Right to create for oneself the alternatives of Choice. Without the possibility of Choice, and the exercise of Choice, a man is not a man but a member, an instrument, a thing.”[8]
The Kingdom of God preached by Jesus but one needs to practice those freedoms of speech, freedom of religion which is Pure Religion and the antitheses of public religion.
If you want to be free you have to set your neighbor free. Your leaders should not go up by steps as Moses said nor exercise authority one over the other like Jesus said. Moses gave power back to the people where their social welfare through the Levites was driven and controlled indirectly because they sewed the "breeches" of the Levites, which is a metaphor.
The New Deal of FDR took away choices of the people once those people became numbered persons of his Social Security system which a "One Purse" strategy forbidden in Proverbs.[38]
Nimrod was a mighty provider, Sumer had its Turtledove goddess, Pharaoh offered His bondage of Egypt, and FDR and LBJ offered their New Deal and Great Society offered the modern Church a ride upon the back of the beast and offered a number to the modern Christians so they could eat of the tables of unrighteousness.
Read our article on the Golden calf, a reserve fund. Herod became a government benefactor who built many structures from to aqueducts and theaters to temples like the one in Jerusalem and Roma which were civil altars and table providing the wages of unrighteousness.
Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry[15], witchcraft[39], hatred[40], variance[41], emulations[42], wrath[43], strife[44], seditions[45], heresies[46], 21 Envyings[47], murders[48], drunkenness[49], revellings[50], and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.[51][52]
- "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."

- 2 Peter 2:15-22 “15 ...forsaken the right way... following the way of Balaam ... who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 But was rebuked for his iniquity... 18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.”

- ↑ All democracies fail
- “A democracy is always temporary in nature;" clarifying “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.” ― Alexander Fraser Tytler, a.k.a. Lord Woodhouselee, (1747–1813) a judge, writer, and Professor at the University of Edinburgh.
- “The particular aspect of history which both attracts and benefits its readers is the examination of causes and the capacity, which is the reward of this study, to decide in each case the best policy to follow. Now in all political situations we must understand that the principle factor which makes for success or failure is the form of a state's constitution: it is from this source, as if from a fountainhead, that all designs and plans of action not only originate but reach their fulfillment.”― Polybius, The Rise of the Roman Empire.
- “I do not say that democracy has been more pernicious on the whole, and in the long run, than monarchy or aristocracy. Democracy has never been and never can be so durable as aristocracy or monarchy; but while it lasts, it is more bloody than either. … Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide. It is in vain to say that democracy is less vain, less proud, less selfish, less ambitious, or less avaricious than aristocracy or monarchy. It is not true, in fact, and nowhere appears in history. Those passions are the same in all men, under all forms of simple government, and when unchecked, produce the same effects of fraud, violence, and cruelty. When clear prospects are opened before vanity, pride, avarice, or ambition, for their easy gratification, it is hard for the most considerate philosophers and the most conscientious moralists to resist the temptation. Individuals have conquered themselves. Nations and large bodies of men, never.” ― John Adams, The Letters of John and Abigail Adams.
- "The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not." John Galt, Dreams Come Due: Government and Economics as if Freedom Mattered (New York: Simon & Schuster, 1986)
- Democracy without constraint against the worst impulses of the majority will lead to tyranny. Plato, Book VIII of “The Republic.”
- "To take from one, because it is thought that his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, — the guarantee to every one of a free exercise of his industry, & the fruits acquired by it." Jefferson's note on Destutt de Tracy’s Treatise on Political Economy, [ca. May 18, 1816].
- Benjamin Franklin's response to Elizabeth Willing Powel's question: "Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?" was, “A republic, if you can keep it.”
- Democracy is the common purse of rights and property where by the mob is a king who may gorge themselves on the fleshpots of the cities of blood until they become perfect savages and are also devoured by the Dragon of their own making.
- “Democracy is the most vile form of government ... democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention: have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property: and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.” James Madison, 1787, stated in the Federalist Paper #10.
- ↑ "The masses continue with an appetite for benefits and the habit of receiving them by way of a rule of force and violence. The people, having grown accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others... institute the rule of violence; and now uniting their forces massacre, banish, and plunder, until they degenerate again into perfect savages and find once more a master and monarch." Polybius 150 years before Christ.

- For it is written that the tables of dainties provided by rulers of the world are a snare because they cause the masses to bite one another through government systems of legal charity which are covetous practices which are a form of fornication or adultery where the people are devoured as merchandise, curse children and are "entangled again in the yoke of bondage" with the aid of the false religion of the whore who rides the beast.

- Benson Commentary states : "The original word, πορνεια, implies criminal conversation of any kind whatever; and is used by the LXX., and by the writers of the New Testament, in the latitude which its correspondent word hath in the Hebrew language, namely, to denote all the different kinds of uncleanness committed, whether between men and women, or between men, or with beasts. Accordingly it is used in the plural number, chap. 1 Corinthians 7:2. Here the word signifies incest joined with adultery, the woman’s husband being still living, as appears from 2 Corinthians 7:12. In the Old Testament whoredom sometimes signifies idolatry, because the union of the Israelites with God as their king being represented by God himself as a marriage, their giving themselves up to idolatry was considered as adultery."

מזבח תכלית קדושה or mizbeach tachlit qadosha- מזבח (Mizbeach): Hebrew word for an altar, which functioned as both physical and mystical points between God and man(Alef), receiving burnt, grain, peace, sin, and trespass offerings, as well as incense.

The altars were a means and methods by which that was done to develop national faith and loyalty.(see Matthew 5:46, Luke 6:32-35, Matthew 21:31 Who is the doer?)
- תכלית (Tachlit): Means complete purpose and conveys the idea that marks both completed application and limitation. it may describe a physical endpoint, a moral or spiritual perfection, or a boundary set by the Lord.

- קדושה (Qadosha): From קָדַשׁ qadash meaning to consecrate. While, קָדוֹשׁ qadosh means of God, as separate, apart, and so sacred, holy: This term signifies holiness, sacredness or separation from the world like the Levites and the early Church that was appointed by Christ.

- Jesus and John the Baptist opposed the leaven of Herod, the Pharisees and of the Sadducees because they misinterpreted the way of Moses and the LORD. They collected the resources for their tables of welfare, their social safety net of free bread and care for the needy of society through forced offerings. Peter, Paul, David, and the prophets have been warned us that such covetous practices were setting a snare and a trap. Herod and the Pharisees had set up a system of legal charity rather than fervent charity which always makes the word of God to none effect so that Christ would say the kingdom of God shall be taken from them and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits. We should know that their system "degenerates" the "masses" until they become "perfect savages". Legal charity and its benefits and dainties provided through men who exercise authority are the wages of unrighteousness and the covetous practices that makes men merchandise and will curse children.

Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
- 1 Corinthians 15:50 "Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption."
- Galatians 5:18 "But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God."
- Hebrews 12:13 "And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed. 14 Follow peace with all [men], and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: 15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and thereby many be defiled; 16 Lest there [be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. 17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
