OUR FOUNDATIONS: CONSTITUTIONS
There is a ‘constitution’ for all free enterprises. For the revolutionaries in the American colonies, it was the ‘Articles of Confederation’ and when that proved too weak to have a union of the thirteen states, in 1787 the United States Constitution was written, amended, and signed by the member states. The reason being, from the Preamble to it, is the following:
We the People of the United States, in Order
to form a more perfect Union establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility,
provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the
Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish
this Constitution for the United States of America.
The constitution was for
everybody… “We the People,” not of the entire world, but of the “United
States.” The first words of the Preamble are that the government is for the
people, not the people for the government. The Constitution was not for the
elite, but the common people. It would not be a kingship, a dictatorship, nor
an oligarchy, wherein the powerful few dictate many repressive laws for those
considered ‘lesser.’
The purpose of the Constitution was
for “Order” in contrast to the chaos that had been there under both the English
Parliament and the colonial Articles of Confederation. The latter was a great
attempt at a strong Constitution, but it had created a loose association of the
states with each state merely a state within a state, much like the Holy Roman
Empire which Voltaire described in this way, “The Holy Roman Empire was in no
way holy, nor Roman, nor an empire.” The same applied to the colonial states.
‘Order’ was the key word. Order
is a planned, a working system, not a haphazard set of afterthoughts. Order is
reasonable and logical.
Before the Constitution was
signed, amendments were added and included in the original document. The
amendments guaranteed liberty. An amendment was included to guarantee order —
the right to bear arms against those who would jeopardize our liberty which was
the very reason for the revolution.
The right to bear arms: guns,
swords, knives, explosives, and such was used in the Revolution and would be
allowed if anyone should attempt to forcefully change the Constitution.
The colonial Congress wrote in 1776 the purpose of the Declaration of Independence; to “declare the causes which impel them to the separation;”
We hold these truths to
be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and
the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are
instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the
governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these
ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute
new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its
powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety
and Happiness.
The people had before bore arms
to gain freedom and must have those same arms to retain freedom.
So long as the Constitution stands, the only recourse the elite have is
deception.
Even the Supreme Court of the United States has no armies to enforce their judgments. The military has a Commander in Chief, and they are obligated to follow him or her regardless of their abilities or sanity. Another amendment was added much later. The Commander in Chief can no longer be a madman thanks to the 25th Amendment (Section four):
Whenever the Vice
President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive
departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to
the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of
Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to
discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall
immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.
The word ‘unable’ could also
include those who are controlled by others: the bureaucracy, the media, the UN,
the WEF, enemies of the States… both foreign and domestic, and even the very
wealthy. All, or even one, of those inabilities is reasonable cause for the VP
to begin the process of replacement.
Dictators are usually crazy
people. Their underlings, generals, and cabinet officials may be as crazy as
their leader. There is no safety valve if both the president and his
vice-president are both crazy, or otherwise incapable of running our
government. A nation run by the members
of the asylum is as chaotic as an insane asylum itself. (As a sidebar, it seems
that the Democrat Party is the ‘asylum’ and now the U.S. government is run by
its ‘inmates.’ Even those who are to defend us have gone crazy. The ‘state’ of
the union is now chaos, and claiming otherwise would be as insane.)
However, this is meant to be much
more than political analysis.
That’s the state of the
government, but also the ‘State of the Spirit’ of the people. Because of too
much liberty, the nation and much of the world has gone crazy with liberty.
Just like Satan himself sneaked
into the Kingdom of God, he struck again in the same manner in the United
States. The ‘Preamble’ to our Constitution differs to the Preamble to God’s.
How did Satan sneak into the Constitution
of the United States? With the statement, “secure the Blessings of Liberty to
ourselves and our Posterity.”
A ‘blessing’ is a religious consecration
That seems like a good thing, but
liberty can be taken to the extremes, and it has been since the beginning of
time. The government idea of personal
liberty is, “the freedom of the individual to do as he pleases limited only by
the authority of politically organized society to regulate his action to secure
the public health, safety, or morals or of other recognized social interests” (ibid).
Too much of any good thing can be
bad for us with only one exception; God is the ‘Good Thing’ and there can never
be too much God. The nature of man since original sin is a ‘God Deficiency’ and
too little God is coming “short of the Glory of God” (Rom 3:23). With that
state of depravity, “In those days” when there were many gods in Israel, “there
was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes”
(Jud 17:6).
Liberty is a good thing but too
much liberty is chaotic. Of the many gods, then and now, among them are each
person. Even Christians essentially write their own state of their union
with God wherein anything goes. As the Church goes, so goes the nation. Why is
our nation in chaos? Because each of the people of our nation is a ‘god’ in
their own eyes.
Note that Libertas became
the god of the French in the First French Republic, then they planted their
goddess in our harbor. Miss Liberty has become the god of all who enter our
nation.
Remember the poison of the fruit
of the Knowledge of Good and Evil? It is deception — failing to recognize just
what is good and what is evil.
Liberty is a good thing and with
free will, God gave us liberty. Too much of the good thing was an evil thing.
The persona of Liberty is doublemindedness. Liberty to most of us is
doing what is right under the Law. The Law, both civil and moral, is not to
imprison but to preserve. Everyone doing as they please seems good, but many
will infringe on the liberty of others — not to be infringed upon.
Protests are a good thing if done
under the confines of law. If the law of the land is ignored, then the result
is chaos. Over the years, our country has gone from civil to chaotic as liberty
is given to an elect few to do as they please, all the while infringing on the
liberty of others.
Chaos is the beginning of any
process. Order comes about by intelligence, used wisely; to improve upon
disorder.
The American colonies, for
instance, was disorderly, with each colony pursuing their own interests without
much regard for the other colonies. The first government had a ‘Constitution’
that were ‘Articles of Confederation.’ It was the first attempt by Americans to
create an orderly New World. The confederation of colonies were allies, in much
the same manner as NATO is today. What could go wrong? About everything, but it
was indeed some order from chaos.
The colonies came into existence
by exploration of the new world. The adventurers overcame the new world because
each indigenous tribe were each their own separate nation with at most
alliances.
The adventurers began the adventure
in the same manner as the Dutch, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and others that divided
the new world into pieces. The present United States was once an amalgam of
foreign territories that were divided. Each sought the territories of the
others and wars ensued. These American colonies were much like tribute payers
to the “Caesar” and his ‘senate’ in England. Britain had become an empire much
like in Roman times in the Mediterranean.
The Roman Empire had fallen
centuries before. Britain emerged from the heap of ashes first. Britain chipped
off the edge of Rome and chaos began all over again, as one by one, each former
Roman Colony became independent kingdoms.
Realms with kings became somewhat
orderly again, and soon a new Roman Empire, made mostly of Germans and their
conquests, emerged from the ashes of Rome. They too had their Caesars and Pontifica
Maximus — the popes.
There was no pope nor king in colonial
America. They were mostly independent of their mother country, except for their
abuses and taxation. Distance made them somewhat independent before
their independence.
King George was, in the beginning,
a just but lax figure. It was the English Parliament that was the ‘master’ of
the colonies. To many Americans, Parliament was no more than ‘parasites’ in
their glorious hair that needed to be brushed off, and when that failed,
eradicated.
After several years of war and
disharmony with their weak alliances, the Americans united in a federal union.
To make a more perfect union, they decided on one Constitution. “It is from
Latin constitutus, the past participle of constituere, meaning ‘to
set up’”
The curing time for the U.S. Constitution
was from 1787 to 1860 when the load exceeded the compressive strength of the Constitution,
and like concrete, the lower edge broke off because it was obvious that with
all the compromise, it had not cured.
The Civil War, not so civil, was
a compression test. The nation failed and it was weakness in the Constitution
that made it fail. To strengthen the Union, more ‘Concrete” was added to replace
what had been broken. Since that time, the amended Constitution needs patching
when any crack ensues. Not just the majority must agree that a ‘patch’ is
needed, but 2/3 of the States must agree that a patch is even needed.
One patch cannot be placed over
the original Concrete. It must be bonded in a manner that it appears to be the
same concrete as before.
Benjamin Franklin said to a Mrs.
Johnson when queried about our type of Constitution, “It is a republic… if we
can keep it.”
Republics had proven to be mere ‘pavements.’
At the time of the original Constitution, the way was paved, but it had yet to
be tested. Growth strained relations between member states. That gave way and
the Republic crumbled like asphalt into two distinct pieces with some even
wondering where they would fit in.
The Civil War created the ‘Union’
for there had never been a union of states before. The Constitution was
weak, and out of the ashes of War, a new way was paved in America. For over
one-hundred years, the Republic was in union and fairly strong. Then, when it
all seemed to be well, there came a wise man (Abraham Lincoln) showed the world
the cracks in the United States, rather than fix them, a majority desired to
tear down to build back better.
Why all the history of our
nation? Because this nation, like many before ours, had a purpose. For instance,
Assyria was created to test Israel’s northern kingdom and they dissolved. That
kingdom was ‘patched’ by bringing Cuthites from Mesopotamia in BC 500. Rather
than Yahweh, their god was Nergal.
Essentially, after the diaspora
and the replacement there were two ‘Israel’s’ — Samaria to the north with their
own ‘constitution’ and Judah to the south with their ‘constitution.’ For the former,
Mount Zion was their base to the south whereas Mount Gershom was to the north.
Both nations worshipped God but
on different mountains with different priests. Yahweh was considered the
God of peace at the ‘Foundation of Peace’ (Jerusalem) compared to Nergal, the ‘god
of war’ whose city was Samaria, the ‘Guardian’ place.
Just like the Federal and Confederate
America’s, built on one foundation, there were two Israel’s built on one
foundation. Both nations were built on God in both places. The problem is that
a ‘Nergal’ stepped in, hoping to repair what was broken in both Israel and
America.
A ‘Constitution’ is what any
existence is founded upon.
The constitution of
mankind is the Image of God — the souls of men: “God created man in his own Image,
in the Image of God created He him; male and female created He them (Gen 1:27)…
then “the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul” (Gen 2:7). Therefore,
the human soul is the constitution, or foundation, of mankind and the
ground became the structure built on that foundation.
The foundation, or soul, is
immortal but the structure continues to ‘rust’ away. It was made for a perfect
environment and economy, but in the world, it perishes. Even so, the soul never
dies!
In the end, it is the soul that is
saved on which to build a new structure, just as the foundation of the temples
in Jerusalem was the foundation of Judaism in Judah, the Samaritans had an
entirely different foundation that was destroyed, not to be replaced, by John
Hyrcanus, the High Priest of Yahweh, in BC 128.
In like manner, Richmond Viriginia
suffered the same outcome, never to be replaced, but for the America’s it was a
reversal; it was our South whose confederate foundation was destroyed, never to
be replaced.
Samaria and the American South
were both destroyed by wars, but the foundation of both remains quite alive in
its people. Just as the souls of people never die, neither do the souls of
nations.
For instance, Rome was destroyed,
and so they thought its soul was as well, and for a time Rome was revived when
the Holy Roman Empire arose from its ashes.
Even Holy Rome has perished but
its ‘soul’ survives in the heart of Rome; the Vatican is the soul of Rome and
Romanism, and many believe that Rome will live again during the apocalypse.
It must be remembered that Rome
was not just a great city, and the foundation of civil government, but of the Christian
religion; but it is just the ‘heart!’
Rome extended from Britian to the
Euphrates and beyond and from Egypt to Scythe. It was the ‘Promised Land’ and
it will soon raise its head again in the end.
If Rome is the ‘heart’ of
civilization, then Jerusalem (Zion) is its ‘belly.’ In fact, Zion is the belly
of all civilizations, but its heart is migratory. Jerusalem is the
foundation of peace, and ironically, the Foundation Stone beneath the Dome of
the Rock is the ‘Navel of the World.’ It will always be so, and at the present
the parasites on the body of civilization are eating away at its navel to erode
the foundation.
Just as the Foundation Stone has
been chipped away by adversaries of all ages, so it remains. The Muslims built
a sanctuary to preserve the Foundation Stone, not because they had a use for
it, but out of fear it would be the foundation stone of the third Hebrew
Temple.
All those comparisons were
presented to demonstrate that everyone and every thing has a ‘constitution.’
Just as Adam, before sin, was our ‘constitution,’ after sin, Eve became the constitution
of so called, ‘mankind.’
Sin caused Adam’s kind to have
their constitution modified, not by election nor democracy, but by deception
(Gen 3:1; 13).
That we are ‘mankind’ is flattery; we must humble ourselves! We are ‘Eve’s kind’ as Adam named a new kind of being after she sinned: “Adam called his wife's name ‘Eve;’ because she was the mother of all living” (Gen 3:20). Remember that Adam had named all the various kinds?
And out of the ground
the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and
brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam
called every living creature, that was the name thereof. (Gen 2:19)
As the ‘mother of all living,’
Eve became the genetic ‘Adam,’ and of the ground (Adam); both man and earth
having the same Hebrew name. Hence, our modified constitution is of the wicked
one. Rather than the Image of God (Selem) within anyone, everyone born
comes short of that, having the image (nahas) of Lucifer, the Serpent,
within us.
Our Image is our ‘constitution’
and sin changed it from righteous to unrighteous, even inglorious. Adam was
made glorious, but Eve came far short of the Glory of God after she was beguiled
— impregnated with guile — and the beastly child, Cain, was of the Wicked One
(1 John 3:12).
The Hebrew name, ‘Eve,’ means
among other things, “to show” or “to reveal,” surely her new constitution. Some
experts say that ‘Eve’ means ‘Serpent” and others that the name is a pointer
toward her descriptor, ‘wife’ (‘Issa) — the ‘adulteress’
After sin, mankind was
reconstituted. Lucifer perished the glorious foundation and replaced it with a
serpentine-like one, and Cain became the new kind. Everyone has Cain as their
foundation and our genetics are his. Cain is our ‘constitution,’ the revised edition
whose author is Satan, so, “Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He
shall lift you up” (Jas 4:10). No, we are not glorious but come far short of
the Glory of God (Rom 3:23).
David indicated that he was “shapened
in iniquity” (Psalm 51:5) and as mere sinners like David, we too are formed in iniquity.
All of us are born depraved, and are brutish in our Constitution, just like the
Beast whose kind we are born of within.
You have no power to change your
constitution for indeed you were born decadent. Who can patch you until you are
reconstituted? Only Jesus can do that; it is His Glorious genes in His Blood which
is the “propitiation” for “sins that are past” (Rom 3:25), the sins of the
female ‘Adam,’ subsequently called, ‘Eve.’
Your own constitution can be
rebuilt in much the same manner as the Third Temple. Jesus can do that; He
said, “Marvel not, you must be born again” (John 3:7). He will reconstitute you,
using the same foundation as with Adam — your personal soul.
(Jews wait on the Third Temple to
be built to prepare for the end, but the Body of God, Jesus, is the ‘Temple of
God,’ so waiting is foolishness!)
Believers in Christ, “Receiving
the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls” (1 Pet 1:9) is the saving
of the your souls; your constitution is saved, the same one that God created
before the foundation of the world (Ephes 1:4).
It was Adam’s kind that were
chosen, not the other kinds, and certainly not Eve’s kind! To be saved is the
salvation of the soul; it is your constitution that is preserved at death, just
waiting on a new structure. At the resurrection, “the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 Cor 15:52).
The resurrection is an erection
of a new, glorious material substance upon our foundation — the soul that is
the constitution of man — that was made like the Constitution of God. It was glorious
as God is Glorious!
Just as the Holy Ghost of Jesus
was the phantom of the man Jesus, when John baptized Jesus with the Holy Ghost,
the Constitution of Jesus was imbued within Him in “bodily shape” as Luke wrote,
(Luke 3:22). Hence, the constitution of a person is the shape of the person
just as with Jesus. Who does the human soul resemble before reconstitution? The
Serpent. Who does the soul resemble after reconstitution? The Holy Ghost of
Jesus.
If after rebirth, your soul still
resembles the devil, then you have not been reconstituted, or else Lucifer has
again sneaked into your new life to create chaos. You may be safe, but
you remain corruptible because incorruptibility comes after death.
The Serpent deceived Eve by
convincing her that she could do as she pleased and her constitution would
remain glorious. She ‘died’ when inwardly, she was changed and made
corruptible. Her new foundation was unstable and soon it gave away to death,
and her soul awaited on Jesus to do a re-genesis — a new beginning on her soul
that was preserved by grace until the coming of the LORD GOD again… right back
to the foundation stone at the ‘navel of the world.’
According to the American
Psychiatric Association (APA), a personal ‘constitution’ is “the sum of an
individual’s innate characteristics,” or more generally, “the basic
psychological and physical makeup of an individual, due partly to heredity and
partly to life experience and environmental factors.”
Your constitution is genetic but
subject to modification due to your environment and experience. Strangely, that
agrees with Holy Scripture. You are indeed, “born this way,” as Lady Gaga
sings, but that way is decadent. Decadence is the constitution, but behavior
is the Wicked One building a structure upon it. The world is the author
of the structure, and the final composition is built on that faulty foundation.
Buildings will fall. Builders at
one time built them to last. Foolishly some were built on faults and when the
earthquakes came, they perished.
Even ancient concrete buildings
of stone and cement still exist, but they too will fall. Man cannot build a
foundation that is eternal, nor can they build nations that are eternal.
However, if built on the LORD GOD, all things can be eternal. He is our
Foundation Stone!
Speaking of New Jerusalem, it is a reconstitution of the ‘foundation of peace;’ it was seen and written about by John the Revelator:
And the city had no need of the Sun, neither of the Moon, to shine in it: for the Glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the Earth do bring their glory and honor into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. (Rev 21:23-25)
The heaven and earth were the ‘structures’
on ‘The Constitution” in the beginning (Gen 1:1). They were built on God, and
in the end, there will be a new Constitution.
“What kind of Constitution?” some
will ask? “An eternal one,” so says God.
God created all things (John 1:1).
"In the beginning He created the heaven and the earth." (Gen 1:1).
God is the Founder and Author of our Constitution, but while so many honor the signers to our Constitution, few honor the Author of our existences.
