Concerning Charlie Kirk

My heart, sympathies, and prayers go out to the family of Charlie Kirk, I ask that the Lord give his wife and children solace in their time to grief and loss.

I’m not going to write much about the man Charlie Kirk, he accomplished much good for the faith, for this country, and ideas and life had positively influenced millions, directly and indirectly.

Not having met the man personally, I did on occasion listen to him online. I was impressed with his passion and strengths, but like all humans he had his shortcomings. One of the primary reasons I didn’t concern myself with his work was his unwavering support for political zionism.

I’m not anti-jewish nor anti-religious zionist, Our Creator was the very first official Zionist as expressed in Psalms 2


6. Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
7. I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
8. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

There are dozens of verses referencing Zion as Holy as well as being the habitation and throne of the Messiah, the Son of GOD. So anyone who wants to throw out a senseless label 🏷,  go away dumb dumb.

I didn’t and still do not agree with the modern iteration of political zionism. I think it’s taken the nation of Israel in the wrong direction. It’s attempts at manipulation of foreign sovereign nations through blackmail and other means to me is sickening.

The wholesale genocide and atrocities being committed against others is at some point, going to draw down the wrath of the Almighty.

The jewish faith and people of Hebrew descent do have a place in the coming of the Messianic Age but they’re going to go through judgment just like everyone else before that Age arrives. Modern day Israel (which includes people of various faiths and ethnicities living in political Israel) is not above reproach, they are human as well and make mistakes. Their histories as recorded in the Old Testament record their continual screwups.

Across generations the descendants of Jacob continually fell away from their faith, they turned their backs to their God, they were judged, punished, they repented and were forgiven. Israel wasn’t perfect then and it isn’t perfect now.

Israel, like every country, has the inherent right to defend itself, it’s people, and nation against others, but that doesn’t confer the right to commit genocide.

Here I’ll let Charlie Kirk expand on that thought which I agree with him completely here.

Scripture of the Day

Revelations 11


3. And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
4. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
5. And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
6. These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
7. And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
8. And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
9. And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
10. And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.
11. And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
12. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
13. And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14. The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.

The two witnesses described in the Revelations has been discussed at length for hundreds of years concerning who they are, from Enoch and Elijah to Moses and Elijah to John and Moses. I’ll wait till their ministry starts before I personally attempt at identifying them.

That said I do think a couple of verses need to be mentioned that are often overlooked or have little mention. One being verse 6, “….shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy:….”. Here we read they have the power to shut down the rain, turning off the water that keeps the people fed. Personally I wonder if this will be regional or global in nature and affect. Aside from the other plagues which may very well mimic those of Egypt, a global and even large-scale regional droughts would have disastrous consequences.

During their 3 1/2 year ministry the earth will be suffering from the antichrist’s war against believers as well as the unsaved being plagued by the ministry of these two Godly men as they can strike cities or regions or even the world with plagues as often as they desire.

During this time in human history, the end of our age, mankind’s heart will still be in a state of rebellion against the Most High. With all the signs and wonders of this period people will refuse to acknowledge their own Creator. Yes some will repent, but the majority will choose to remain in their fallen state, loving self more than God, refusing to accept the one who loved them so much He gave His own Son to die for them.

The two witnesses will lead from Jerusalem, where they’ll also be killed and rise again the third day, just as our Savior Jesus did.

Pretribulational eschatology teaches believers will not see these two, but since I lean towards the prewrath position, I do believe we will.

Either way, they are serving the purpose of the Father.

Bless GOD and have a blessed day.

Just some thoughts

As time continues on we are watching an attempt by the current administration to transform parts of our failing behemoth of a government. As I mentioned in an earlier post, although I don’t particularly care for the Don, I do applaud some of the policies he is introducing and doing.

Unlike several previous administrations he is trying to keep some of his initial campaign promises which I think is good but I have little faith in this current system. The deep state is entrenched at all levels of government, federal, state, and local.

DEI for one, state and local governments can and will continue observing those asinine policies as will corporations and businesses. There is the separation of powers that still remains in the Constitution, albeit only a shadow, but regardless it remains and is essential in a Republic. The president isn’t a king and doesn’t reign supreme. His powers and authority are still limited by Constitutional restraint, even if it’s not practiced.

The things being done by executive order can be undone by the next incoming Administration, that’s why we shouldn’t place much faith that these “Orders” will remain long. There may be initial benefits and if they remain there’ll be longterm benefits to the nation, buts that’s one of those ify things in politics.

Freeing the J6ers and the prolifers and the silk road guy I applaud, the border and the attempt at trimming the fat from Washington’s backside, applaud that as well, killing wokeism, another thumbs up. But one thing seems to be missing, his call for national repentance…

Why call for a day of national repentance? Why not? Hasn’t our nation sinned? Haven’t we as a people turned our back away from the Father and the Son? Hasn’t the moral fabric of our society been ripped away bit by bit for sixty plus years now? Are we so arrogant to think that our nations greatness is a result of the people alone?

America needs to humble itself and repent, asking our GOD for forgiveness. Then and only then will America be great again.

Thoughts on the incoming Administration

America has the appearance of being fractured socially and politically into various clicks and groups, each vying with and against one another. Yet one thing I saw this cycle on the maps anyway, was red or republican majority covered more than 90% of this country, save for those traditional locations of socialist-progressives, that being Metropolitan areas.

So with this election cycle the majority of people seem to have rejected the socialist-progressive mandates and authoritarianism.

Or have they?

After watching and experiencing the fake-covid mania sweep across the country and the world I have little faith in citizens or mankind in general. First being the biblical concept of the heart of man being deceitful above all things and desperately wicked, also the outright inability of people to think for themselves, they will believe anything, as their mind conceives as a “benevolent governments”, tells them. Masking works…not, six feet distance works…not, the Vax works…not…. shutdowns and isolation, it was all fake. Millions of jobs were lost, businesses shut down, lives lost or ruined and destroyed, all because the majority believed the lies.

Now we stand at a precipice of this country, the Don has a mandate and at face value I agree with most of it. But if you look deeper you’ll soon realize he and his handlers are as fake as the opposing party. The left wanted authoritarianism but their extremes of societal norms are to far for most citizens to accept. The right, hands down, brings authoritarianism into existence by appealing to the more normal values of society at large and passes the repulsive laws the left is incapable of passing. It’s all theater and showmanship, the left becomes the antithesis of society then the right has a mandate to push back. One example is illegal immigrants, the left allows them to flood the country, the majority of people want safe protected borders and communities. With the illegals the right now has a mandate to deport, as stated by the Don and his incoming Administration… sounds good, it’s been done before. Then looking at their proposals it includes biometric identifications, internment camps, possible induction into military service in exchange for citizenship and on it goes. All of these ideas are conditioning of the population for a surveillance society, worse than what we have now.

If anyone thinks these measures will stop with illegals I have a bridge to nowhere for sale. It was the right that created the Patriot Act 1 & 2, the NDAA which allows indefinite detention of American citizens, it was a republican administration that brought us the lockdowns, the fake covid and fake Vax that’s killing millions. Now with 90% of the country leaning red and this incoming Administration leaning toward authoritarian measures do you think the citizens are going to deny the Don his moment? The Don wants revenge, not for justice but for his narcissistic mindset. If he wanted justice for the sake of justice and reforming and/or purging the system then I’d be praising his efforts, but knowing the narcissistic mindset it’s hard to fathom him doing right for rights sake. The left continued the rights atrocities with their asinine mandates.

What we are seeing is a left/right march into tyranny and the majority of citizens will march right along supporting the efforts of authoritarianism.

Most self-professed Christians seem to be entranced with the Don and are slobbering over his footsteps. Society seems to think the Don will be America’s savior, Savior, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but he isn’t. Yes God put him there for a reason. What was that reason? In my mind it’s to show those self-righteous folks on the right that they aren’t any better than the soulless husks of the left. Sin is sin regardless of what foot is stepping. When the right introduces tyranny  under the guise of national security they’ll soon realize many of their own will be heading to to camps as well.

Do I think things will get better? Nope. The economy/financial markets will crash, in the fear they’ll introduce some type of endtimes beast financial system based on biometrics. A semblance of peace will come but then war, death, real disease and famine and death and hell following. Yes I do think we are in the prelude to the biblical defined tribulation period defined in Daniel and Revelations.

Revelations 3:1… These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.
2. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
3. Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
4. Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
5. He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

THE LAWFUL RIGHT OF SELF DEFENSE AGAINST UNLAWFUL ARREST

By Posted in Uncategorized Tagged , , , , , , , Leave a comment

ATTENTION: We are in no way affirming the right for citizens to take the life of law enforcement officer, what we are presenting is the simple fact that citizens DO HAVE the legal right to defend themselves against unlawful arrest up and including taking the life of an offending officer.

“These principles apply as well to an officer attempting to make an
arrest, who abuses his authority and transcends the bounds thereof by the
use of unnecessary force and violence, as they do to a private individual
who unlawfully uses such force and violence.”

“Citizens may resist unlawful arrest to the point of taking an arresting
officer’s life if necessary.” Plummer v. State, 136 Ind. 306. This premise
was upheld by the Supreme Court of the United States in the case: John Bad
Elk v. U.S., 177 U.S. 529. The Court stated: “Where the officer is killed
in the course of the disorder which naturally accompanies an attempted
arrest that is resisted, the law looks with very different eyes upon the
transaction, when the officer had the right to make the arrest, from what
it does if the officer had no right. What may be murder in the first case
might be nothing more than manslaughter in the other, or the facts might
show that no offense had been committed.”

“An arrest made with a defective warrant, or one issued without affidavit,
or one that fails to allege a crime is within jurisdiction, and one who is
being arrested, may resist arrest and break away. lf the arresting officer
is killed by one who is so resisting, the killing will be no more than an
involuntary manslaughter.” Housh v. People, 75 111. 491; reaffirmed and
quoted in State v. Leach, 7 Conn. 452; State v. Gleason, 32 Kan. 245;
Ballard v. State, 43 Ohio 349; State v Rousseau, 241 P. 2d 447; State v.
Spaulding, 34 Minn. 3621.

“When a person, being without fault, is in a place where he has a right to
be, is violently assaulted, he may, without retreating, repel by force,
and if, in the reasonable exercise of his right of self defense, his
assailant is killed, he is justified.” Runyan v. State, 57 Ind. 80; Miller
v. State, 74 Ind. 1.

“These principles apply as well to an officer attempting to make an
arrest, who abuses his authority and transcends the bounds thereof by the
use of unnecessary force and violence, as they do to a private individual
who unlawfully uses such force and violence.” Jones v. State, 26 Tex. App.
I; Beaverts v. State, 4 Tex. App. 1 75; Skidmore v. State, 43 Tex. 93,
903.

“An illegal arrest is an assault and battery. The person so attempted to
be restrained of his liberty has the same right to use force in defending
himself as he would in repelling any other assault and battery.” (State v.
Robinson, 145 ME. 77, 72 ATL. 260).

“Each person has the right to resist an unlawful arrest. In such a case,
the person attempting the arrest stands in the position of a wrongdoer and
may be resisted by the use of force, as in self- defense.” (State v.
Mobley, 240 N.C. 476, 83 S.E. 2d 100).

“One may come to the aid of another being unlawfully arrested, just as he
may where one is being assaulted, molested, raped or kidnapped. Thus it is
not an offense to liberate one from the unlawful custody of an officer,
even though he may have submitted to such custody, without resistance.”
(Adams v. State, 121 Ga. 16, 48 S.E. 910).

“Story affirmed the right of self-defense by persons held illegally. In
his own writings, he had admitted that ‘a situation could arise in which
the checks-and-balances principle ceased to work and the various branches
of government concurred in a gross usurpation.’ There would be no usual
remedy by changing the law or passing an amendment to the Constitution,
should the oppressed party be a minority. Story concluded, ‘If there be
any remedy at all … it is a remedy never provided for by human
institutions.’ That was the ‘ultimate right of all human beings in extreme
cases to resist oppression, and to apply force against ruinous
injustice.’” (From Mutiny on the Amistad by Howard Jones, Oxford
University Press, 1987, an account of the reading of the decision in the
case by Justice Joseph Story of the Supreme Court.

As for grounds for arrest: “The carrying of arms in a quiet, peaceable,
and orderly manner, concealed on or about the person, is not a breach of
the peace. Nor does such an act of itself, lead to a breach of the peace.”
(Wharton’s Criminal and Civil Procedure, 12th Ed., Vol.2: Judy v. Lashley,
5 W. Va. 628, 41 S.E. 197)
