In my last post, I introduced the question: Is Secession the only Answer to keep our Constitutional Republic? In a way, I began asking myself this question 16 years ago in one of my first blog posts writing about government evils: the failure to protect life, "Has Mercy died in America?". Three years later, I asked, "Has God Abandoned America?". Ten years after, I asked 2 more questions, "Has the Democrat Party Become the Fourth Reich?" and, "Has America Passed a Tipping Point?". As a last example, I asked after the 2020 election, "Who Are Today's Tyrants?". Watching the nation transform into a Socialist/Communist Hell-hole, it is time to compare the Framers concepts of good government to a century of progressive, total-government administration.
For 5,000 years of recorded history, human beings have allowed themselves to be ruled (controlled) by one form or another of totalitarian government. These governed by force and fear, most often by a single strong person like a king or queen, which still reign in many nations, today. But in 1620, a group of individuals, known to us as Pilgrims, became the first group of people to join together into a single body politic. They documented how they would live and govern themselves with what became known as, “The Mayflower Compact.” Contained in this easy to read, one-page charter are two key elements of good government. These were and still are: 1. They exercised their free will, and 2. They came together by mutual consent.
For a brief reminder, why we rejected the concept of, “the divine right of kings,” and separated from the crown of Great Britain, it would be good to read, “The Declaration of Independence.” Many of the 27 grievances that caused Americans to create their own government can be seen being repeated by the Democrat Communists ruling with an iron fist, today.
Now as the world speeds toward the end of this age and the highly probable and imminent return of Jesus to rapture His true followers, we see His foretold rejection of His gift of Liberty. Once we are gone, nearly everyone left behind will be deceived and will embrace enslavement to a murderous, totalitarian global dictatorship. Individual liberty and self-determination will be gone, until Almighty God executes judgement and satisfies justice with His wrath. This is not hyperbole. Every socialist/communist dictatorship demands 100% subjection to the will of the collective – or else.
So, is secession bad? If it leads to war, obviously, yes. It is possible the American Civil War would not have happened if South Carolina had not fired on Fort Sumter. I won’t get into the argument President Abraham Lincoln provoked South Carolina into acting, but I understand it. Regardless, war may be necessary if the cause is just and today, we who desire to be governed by a Constitutional Republic have irreconcilable differences with those who want Socialism/Communism. We cannot peacefully coexist. We need a civil divorce before it turns hostile.
Therefore, let us examine the Bill of Rights, which forms the cause for our separation. In this article, we’ll look at Article I, referred to as the 1st Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Article I (1st Amendment)
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; of the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Has this government established a religion? Maybe not by legislation; but it has in practice. The new government religion is Critical Race Theory with its Woke Priesthood of Self-Righteous Virtue Signalers, and Cancel Culture Enforcers. We have seen more lives ruined, shamed, and even lost whenever anyone questions their theoretical dogma. The problem with this religion, never can someone demonstrate acceptable repentance, receive forgiveness, or enjoy redemptive reconciliation. Once damned by the Cancel Culture Enforcers, one is forever damned. This government religion shall not tolerate Christianity, which has been labeled by the Woke Priesthood a, “White Supremacist Religion,” and must be removed from progressive America. When someone says, they want you removed from your nation – believe them. Regardless of whether the official government religion will let us freely exercise our faith, we who are followers of Jesus must courageously obey His command to preach the Gospel and make disciples?
What about freedom of speech, or of the press? I expect that my blog will be cut off from public reading if it hasn’t been already. But if anyone reading this article doesn’t know that the Democrat Communist Party controls all major media outlets and what messages are delivered to the news consuming public, I suggest that you take notice of the fact, they all present the same talking points, with little or no deviation, sounds like propaganda. And if you try to communicate through the internet, the monitoring algorithms watch every keystroke. Lately, I’ve been writing regular letters.
We all saw what happened in Washington D.C. on January 6th. The Woke Priesthood declared the peaceful assembly a violent insurrection. The Chief Priestess wants a 9/11 style commission to investigate. What we saw with our eyes was not a violent insurrection. It was an overzealous attempt to petition the Federal government to redress an ignored grievance – the mounting, irrefutable evidence of a stolen 2020 election. By the way, we still don't know the identity of the Capitol police officer who shot and killed unarmed, USAF veteran, Ashli E. Babbit. What is Nancy hiding?
The Democrat Communist Party controls every aspect of the nation’s power centers: Federal, State, & Local governments, Education at all levels, Entertainment and News Media, and major corporations. Does anyone think they will surrender power without a fight? Look how hard they fought to remove President Trump from office. Since January 20, 2021, our liberties have been eradicated. I don’t want to fight Leftists, I want to leave them. It’s time to seriously discuss creating a new nation, not one based on failed Marxist theories; but one based on self-evident Truth, dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal and endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Almighty God did not send His Son to die on a cruel cross to have His children enslaved. It was for freedom’s sake Christ died to set, and keep, us free. And who the Son sets free is free indeed.
The Progressive Left's abuse of the First Amendment is reason enough to separate into two nations. But if we consider the Second in depth, we'll see an unbridgeable-ideological divide, wider than the Grand Canyon.
