Another Step Toward the Goal

Last evening at 5:00PM Eastern the Glenn Beck Program aired the following piece:

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/21/take-an-inside-look-at-the-planned-citadel-community-for-patriots/

This is the public outting of the III Patriots and more specifically the public presentation of the III Citadel.  I am proud to say that I stand squarely behind this movement.  I have met a few of the key personalities responsible for the movement's formation and furtherance.  I am also a member of the III Congress.  Although situated nearly as remotely as one could be, I intend to put any effort I can to this organization.

I am loathe to list the slights and injuries inflicted by the recent regimes which have seized control of this nation.  I am standing up to take my place among the few have decided to do more than simply uncover, share and decry the atrocities. 

During the interview, Glenn Beck asked about religion and what place it nay or not have in the Citadel.  I agree with him that God had a huge part in the formation of this nation.  He will need to have that same part again.  It is my intension to beg for His intervention on our behalf to set this nation aright once again. 

Freedom for each individual man was God-given from the first day of man's very creation.  There are those today who would take that from us and be themselves our gods.  I will not bow to them.  It is time for like-minded men and women to stand against the tyranny and evil that has begun an unveiled assault on our liberties through twisted use of regulation and the power associated with it.  The very regulatory power we, the people, have surrendered to them. 

Share the link to the GB/III Citadel interview.  Get more involved.

Where Have All the Men Gone?

"But there is more than one way to silence a man. If coercion and intimidation won’t work, bribery is always an option. Back in the 1950s, then Texas US Senator Lyndon Johnson cleverly employed both tactics when he introduced and helped pass what we now know as the 501c3 non-profit, tax-exempt corporation status for churches. Suddenly, free and independent church bodies became creatures of the state. Pastors, elders, deacons, etc., were no longer offices of the church; they were now corporate officers, authorized and sanctioned by the state."

I am not as apt an orator as I consider Pastor Chuck Baldwin to be, hence the quote above and the link to the full article below.

What I am, however, is as determined as he is to decry the resident evil that has so boldly and blatantly manifested itself in recent times. 

It's past time for the men of my profession to stand on the Principles of Liberty and proclaim them.  It will cause a number of things among which are: 1) a lower Sunday crowd, 2) consequently lower offerings, 3) ire and mistrust of some of "the faithfu;", 4) possible ousting from the pulpit by that same group of "the faithful", 5) very likely "routine auditing" by various .gov agencies which may or not have anything to do with tax exempt status.  All of these things matter - IF one is more concerned with the "temporal" side of pastoring than with the spiritual mandate of "... preaching the word..." and being "... instant in season, out of season..." 

There is a decision to be made, not only by Johnny Q. living on Main St, USA to stand and live in Freedom and to resist those who would deny that right, but by those men who stand in America's pulpits.  The mandate, the charge, the responsibility is for "... a man (to) be found faithful."  and that NOT to Caesar but to the King of Kings, "... who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus..."

"And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word." 1Kings 18:21

Why are you silent as those of Israel in Elijah's day? Is it because, as then, you've forgotten Who has redeemed, sanctified and called you to be His Oracles here in this present world? 

As the depth of evil in this nation is revealed, it has become impossible to continue to hide behind Romans 13 any longer.  You, preacher, stand in the precarious position of either deciding to make a stand for the Liberty this nation was formed in by God's Own Hand or call the actions of our Forefathers sin...

Decide my brethren - time is short...

Speaking One's Mind - With Reserve, Of Course

"I'm an old man with very little to lose. I'm willing to risk it all to make plain what these scum are doing to the country I love. Win, lose, or draw, the case itself would be sufficient cause for a real, flying-lead revolution. At the end, either America's remaining patriots would all be dead, in prison, or permanently cowed and disarmed; or Killian, Holder, Obama, and all their henchmen would dangle from the lampposts of Washington, D.C."

A touching quote from the following:
