Emperator

From Mark of the Beast

Family values were a chief topic of political rhetoric before every election and during the writing of the new constitution by Augustus. The rise of that Empire out of the ashes of a free republic was unrelenting.

After their civil war, the first of the three offices sought by Augustus was Emperator,commander in chief of the army and naval forces. The second office was Principas Civitas, the First Citizen, the chief executive officer or President of Rome, a municipality. The third office was ApoTheos, literally translated the appointor of gods.

The duties of this office were to appoint all the judges or magistrates for the empirical courts. Each office required an oath based on constitutional restrictions. Successors were determined by an electoral college of the Senate, known as the “Conscripted Fathers.”

From Judge

This apotheosis of presidents was fundamentally no different than the deification of Caesar as god who was also the commander in chief of the military and chief executive officer of the world order of Rome. History does repeat itself if we will not learn from it and if they are going to change our understanding of words we may all be deceived again.<Ref>2 Timothy 3:13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

From Imperial Cult of Rome

Sacrific through the public Temples provided Welfare for the people but was a Snare of Covetous Practices. It had not been this way under the Libera Res Publica but as an indirect democracy with an "Emperator" as the Patronus of the people the Social Virtues of society diminished onder a growing Socialist State and tyranny reigned in the hearts of the people.

The Imperial cult of ancient Rome identified emperors and some members of their families with the divinely sanctioned authority of the Roman State.
