Introduction
One of the great
tactics of war is to use propaganda and fear to "re-educate" and alter
the thinking of your enemies. Goliath used this tactic against the Israelites in
the Old Testament. He caused so much fear in the camp of Israel by his words
alone, that no one would go out to battle against him.
There
is a large population in the United States who remember the words of Nikita
Khrushchev, "We will take over the United States without firing a shot. Your
children will live under communism!" It is an old and time-tested tactic. Many
of us remember the "cold war" which allegedly ended "with the breakup" of the
Soviet Union. But Khrushchev was right, the children of those living when he
made his statement now live under "communism" in the United States. The takeover
of the nation, however, began long ago.
One must respect an enemy who has the cunning
to convince a nation that a new kind of law was being given to the American
people; a law never before used in the history of the world. The basis of this
new law was "WE THE PEOPLE." It was not easy to convince the people in the 13
colonies that the Constitution of the United States was what was needed to make
the nation successful. Many fought against it to the very end. Imagine an enemy
so cunning that it has been able to convince the American people they are free,
while at the same time enslaving them.
The historians tell us the Constitution is a
"God-inspired document." The historians tell us that America was founded to be
the "melting pot" of the world. Modern language would define the United States
as the most cosmopolitan country in the world. It's true, we have more races of
people living in this nation than perhaps any nation in the world. We have
allowed, through the Constitution, every culture and religion on the face of the
earth to come to America and flourish.
Could it be that "the law of the land" is not
what we have been told for all these years? Were the founding fathers truly
operating on Biblical principles or were they led by "the love of money?" Is it
possible that we have been sold a "bill of goods" by our enemies and been taken
over by a cunning plan called the Constitution of the United States? Thinking we
have been free for over 200 years, has the Constitution now made us slaves? You
decide.
Banking History in Early America
It is important to know the people behind any
plan. During the last 20 years the media has attempted to slander the good names
of many of the founding fathers. Their accounts of these men are mere
speculation and it would be good to remember the words of Napoleon, "History is
nothing more than agreed upon lies."
The word of God says, "The love of money, is
the root of all evil" (1 Timothy 6:10) and "the borrower is slave to the lender"
(Proverbs 22:7). The nation was founded upon the love of money and debt. In
1716, the Mississippi River region of America was owned by France. John Law of
Scotland established the General Bank in France. He issued, through this bank,
freshly printed paper called "banknotes." Yes, just like the Federal Reserve
notes. The government of France made these banknotes legal tender and the bank
flourished by lending these notes at interest.
In August 1717, the General Bank absorbed the
Louisiana Company. This new company was given trading rights over the tremendous
land area drained by the Mississippi, Ohio and Missouri Rivers. In 1718, the
General Bank changed its name to "Royal Bank" to give it a better image. The
king of France guaranteed the bank notes issued by the Royal Bank. It was a true
conglomerate. Another conglomerate was formed about this time called the Western
Company. This company was a rival to the Royal Bank and Louisiana Company. This
new company absorbed the East India, Oriental and China Companies. The king of
France gave this newly formed company the rights to "collect taxes" and a
monopoly of the mint and coin issued under the condition they take over the
national debt of France. Sounds familiar doesn't it?
The next thing to happen almost surpasses
belief. The two companies merged! The price of the stock of the new company went
out of sight. The merchants and farmers of France mortgaged their homes, farms
and businesses to buy stock. When John Law announced his plan to take the gold
backing off the banknotes, long lines formed to exchange the banknotes for a
meager supply of gold. When the gold ran out, the windows were closed and the
homes, farms and businesses of the French people went to the usury bankers. The
bankers now had a toehold in America!
England assisted the 13 colonies of America
when they went to war with the French and Indians. ENGLAND LENT THE COLONIES
MONEY AT INTEREST TO FIGHT THIS WAR. In 1764 the Stamp Act was passed on the
colonies to recoup some of this usury-loaned money. The colonies revolted, they
had no money to make repayment. In 1770 Virginia passed anti-slavery laws. The
King of England gave instructions to His governor in Virginia that no such laws
would be allowed. The King desperately needed his share of the slave trade
profits to pay his own usury debts.
By 1775, the
balance of trade between the colonies of America and England was dramatic. The
colonies owed English merchants 4,800,000 pounds. The imposition of usury into
this trade imbalance, made war with England inevitable. Unpayable debt was the
cause. The colonies were enslaved. Virginia was in poverty. Why? "The
borrower is slave to the lender."
The colonies
were in a self-inflicted and long-planned bankers' trap. In 1776, the
Declaration of Independence was written to seek independence from England. The
colonies were heavily in debt and did not have the means to fight a war. What
did they do? They borrowed money of course! From bankrupt France.
The resulting "war" with England was "won" by
the colonies, but while they won the war, the battle was lost, because "the
borrower is slave to the lender."
Founding Fathers
Who were the men who led in this "victory"
over England and forged a new nation by writing the Constitution of the United
States? A majority of them were ugh . . . lawyers. Forty of them held government
bonds. Fourteen were land speculators. Twenty-four of them made their living
lending money at interest. Eleven were involved in mercantile, manufacturing or
shipping. Fifteen owned slaves.
Several of the
founding fathers were in the back pocket of the usury bankers. In 1781, the
private Bank of Pennsylvania was formed. It later became the Bank of North
America. Among those who were able to get in on the original subscription of
this bank were 1) Benjamin Franklin, 2) Thomas Jefferson, 3) Alexander Hamilton,
4) James Monroe, 5) John Jay, 6) John Paul Jones; and 7) Commodore John Barry.
In 1784, the Bank of New York was founded. This bank was a creation of Alexander
Hamilton of New York whose backers were reputed to be the Rothchilds and the
Bank of England.
In 1787, the
Constitution was fittingly put together in Philadelphia, the home of the Bank of
North America. Hamilton and his backers wrote the original document for the
Constitution, to the dismay of most of the attendees of the meeting. Many were
horrified that an entirely new kind of government was being formulated, when in
fact they had been sent only to revise the Articles of Confederation.
Patrick Henry, himself a lawyer, went home to fight against the Constitution.
Like so many of
the present day pieces of legislation, out of 62 delegates, only 39 signed the
final document. Through the efforts of Hamilton, who wrote the majority of the Federalist
Papers, the people were finally convinced that the Constitution would, if
the people were "vigilant," safeguard their liberties. It was a great
con job foisted upon a nation of people. The banks were in, the people and their
properties were out!
In 1789, Washington was elected President. He
gave Hamilton the appointment as Secretary of the Treasury. The fox was now
guarding the hen house. Two years later, Hamilton created the First Bank of the
United States. It was a private bank to which all of the new government's money
was entrusted. The successor to this bank was the Second Bank of the United
States. When it went bankrupt 50 years later, it was found that 64 percent of
the bank's 25,000 shares were owned by foreigners. Many were British.
In 1794, taxes forced Pennsylvania farmers to
revolt. Washington did what all rulers do when a country is in debt to the
bankers. He sent thousands of Federal troops to crush the rebellion. He did to
his own people what he had led his people to revolt against in the war with
England. But then the bankers must be paid.
What does the Constitution Really Say?
I remember watching a "MASH" television show
years ago. An injured soldier was desperate to talk to someone about not being
sent back into the war. One of the doctors said, "Would you like to speak to our
priest?" The soldier replied, "No, I'm an atheist." The doctor responded, "I
don't believe that." "It's true," said the soldier, "I swear to God!" One of the
soldier's statements was not true and what we have been taught about the
Constitution folks, is not true.
Many people still harp that the Constitution
is a God-inspired document. Yet GOD IS NEVER MENTIONED IN THE CONSTITUTION. The
people were so fearful of it that the 10 Amendments became mandatory, before
their fears were quelled. But the die had already been cast. The flexible,
easily changed Constitution was in place.
Few people ever examine words for what they
actually say. Most prefer to take the word of those they trust, rather than look
for themselves. It is a fatal mistake. The godless Constitution has become a
fearful taskmaster, as Washington once described government.
Have you ever wondered why the ability to
alter the Constitution was so important? Article V allows both the Congress,
whenever two-thirds of both houses deem it necessary, or, on the Application of
two-thirds of the several states, to propose Amendments to the Constitution. The
legal "experts" tell us it is important, because of social and economic changes
that might take place. We can certainly understand how this may benefit power
brokers, but how could it possibly benefit the people of this nation? It
doesn't!
The bankers were well taken care of with the
Constitution. Article VI makes all previous debts as valid under the
Constitution, as under the Confederation. This was for the bankers, not us. They
even had a special International Debt Jurisdiction put into the original
Constitution. It is found in Article III, Section 2 and is called admiralty and
maritime. This special international legal jurisdiction was for the bankers, not
us. The bankers, mostly anti-Christ, in Article VI, also made sure that none of
their boys and girls in either house could be given any kind of religious test
that might keep them out of office. Article I, Section 10, takes away the
states' ability to argue with the bankers and their contracts. This clause
guaranteeing the obligation of Contracts was not put there for us, it was placed
there for the bankers. There is a false notion being taught today that the
Constitution of the United States has been suspended. Consider this: The
Constitution was put into place for international bankers. It allows the
President, when two-thirds of the Senate concurs, to make international
treaties. The Senators were originally chosen by the individual state
legislators and sent to Washington, D.C. to represent states' rights [Article I,
Section 3]. International treaties affect states' rights and the people who live
there. NAFTA IS A GOOD EXAMPLE! But in 1913, the Constitution was amended to
allow "WE THE PEOPLE" to elect the Senators! The 17th Amendment cleared the way
for the removal of states' rights and removed the only obstacle to easy
ratification of treaties.
Since treaties become part of the Constitution
and the law of the land, do you think the enemies of freedom may have used this
UNLIMITED AMENDMENT PROCESS to alter the course of the nation? Of course they
did! Have you ever read the hundreds of treaties the Presidents and Senate have
made with other nations?
Did you know that the United Nations is a
Treaty Agreement and as a signatory nation, the United States is bound by its
dictates and that it is part of the Constitution? Yes, when any elected official
takes his/her oath of office to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United
States, that oath includes treaties! Let me quote ARTICLE VI, paragraph 2:
THIS CONSTITUTION, AND THE LAWS OF THE UNITED
STATES WHICH SHALL BE MADE IN PURSUANCE THEREOF; AND ALL TREATIES MADE, OR WHICH
SHALL BE MADE, UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF THE UNITED STATES, SHALL BE THE SUPREME
LAW OF THE LAND; AND THE JUDGES IN EVERY STATE SHALL BE BOUND THEREBY, ANY THING
IN THE CONSTITUTION OR LAWS OF ANY STATE TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING.
There you are folks, TREATIES ARE THE LAW OF
THE LAND AND EVERY JUDGE IS BOUND BY THEM! Someone has said, "Any law repugnant
to the Constitution is invalid." Treaties are not repugnant to the Constitution.
They may be repugnant to individual rights, but not the Constitution. Try going
to their courts, and attempting to claim your rights in front of their judges!
What a joke.
Are treaties under Common Law, Equity, or
Admiralty and Maritime? You guessed right if you said Admiralty and Maritime. It
is the same legal jurisdiction that the founding fathers discovered in their
day. Remember the Declaration of Independence? "He [the King] has combined with
others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and
unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended
Legislation." Then the founding fathers placed this same foreign jurisdiction
into the Constitution. Who for? The bankers.
Constitution has not been Suspended
It is almost fruitless to discuss how the
Constitution itself is the very source of tyranny that has beset the nation. It
is an "any god" document and has been used by every religion in this nation and
been successful. The Constitution is like water poured into a cavern. It levels
itself with current religious thought, including atheism, homosexuality and the
murder of the unborn.
The final authority in this document is "WE
THE PEOPLE" and they worship every god under the sun of our Creator. This is SOP
[Standard Operating Procedure] for "WE THE PEOPLE." When we "walk after our own
thoughts," (Isaiah 65:2) God brings His wrath against us.
We truly deserve what God has brought against
us for our sin against Him. The "law of the land" eliminated God and His laws,
statutes and judgments from the original colonies. Yes, the laws of the thirteen
colonies came straight out of the Word of God. Verses were quoted in their
entirety as the laws. It was obedience to these laws which brought about the
great success of the colonies as a blessing from God. Patrick Henry was right,
"What was the emergency that required such a radical change?" The colonies had
just defeated the mightiest arm on the face of the earth! Why did they need to
change their laws?
Some 80 years later, under the Constitution
and as a curse from God, the grandchildren of the founding fathers killed each
other by the hundreds of thousands in the ungodly Civil War. Many Americans
still brag about World War I, II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the invasion
of Panama and the Gulf War, never knowing that had the founding fathers retained
the law of God as "the law of the land," most, if not all of these wars, would
not have occurred.
We now live in a nation that has more murders,
rapes, etc., than any nation on earth. What kind of prosperity would prevail in
the nation today if God's law had been honored and obeyed for the last 200
years?
Only God knows, but He is a forgiving God. He
asks, through His Son Jesus Christ, that we repent [change our mind] and return
to Him and His laws. The Constitution will not save us, only our Holy God and
our obedience to His law can bring this about. He is our King, He is our only
lawgiver, only He will save us (Isaiah 33:22).
