ACTION

WE MUST BE TRANSFORMED Posted by Chaplain Thomas Gilbert Cole                                                         Many books and bible versions can inform, but only the true Holy Bible can transform. Yes folks the preserved and inherent word the Holy Bible is without doubt, controversy or question whatsoever the most important informational and educational manual/document a truly saved by grace born again Bible believing and practicing individual can ever posses!!! Our right to carry, study, practice, and follow the true word of the Most High Holy and Righteous Almighty God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost is the highest achievement a person can posses in this life. This wonderful nation founded as Christian Constitutional Republic was established to protect Almighty God given rights. While all our founding fathers were not all born again: you know? Those that had believed with their whole heart, being, mind, and soul, confessed and repented turning from their sins, and calling on the precious name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, trusting in His shed blood for their eternal salvation; all were educated by the preserved and inherent word the Holy Bible. Our founding documents both state and national comprising of the Constitutions, Bill of Rights, Declaration of Rights were based on the Holy Bible and the Ten Commandments. As Christian Americans we have two basic responsibilities: One of course is to take the Saving Gospel into all the world, and today without argument this includes our own beloved country our neighbors. And two is to oppose evil in the church, government, and society (We the People). It is a very sad commentary that the churches of the Living God have for the most part been extremely remiss in opposing evil!!! This preacher believes without the shadow of any doubt whatsoever that the demise of Virtue, Liberty, and Independence has been brought about by the changing of our Christian Constitutional Republic, which is government by Almighty God's established law- into a Democracy, which is government based on the ever changing whims of the majority: "THOU SHALT NOT FOLLOW A MULTITUDE TO DO EVIL;” Exodus 23: 2(a). Our precious Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ commanded us to: "IF YOU LOVE ME KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS"!!!!! When the Apostles of the Lord and Saviour were commanded by the government authorities after jailing (yes Jesus Christ and his apostles were jailbirds, most suffered capitol punishment-murdered-for righteousness sake). After being flogged they were commanded not to "speak in the name of Jesus Christ"!!! What did they do? "Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, WE OUGHT TO OBEY GOD RATHER THAN MEN." Acts 5 : 29. They most certainly refused to obey those governmental authorities; and of course they did not shake with fear and hide themselves. They were not ashamed of the Saving Gospel and opposition to evil. "And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ." Acts 5 : 42. We must protect our God given Rights. The very first Article of the Bill of Rights of the Constitution of these United States of America outlines the responsibility of government which is to protect the rights of ALL citizens assures and guarantees that: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion(no State Church), or prohibiting the free exercise(the public pronouncement of the saving gospel of Jesus Christ, and opposition to evil) thereof, or the abridging the freedom of speech(public proclamation), or the press....." Just before our Revolutionary war for Virtue (moral excellence), Liberty (only Christ Jesus can set us free), and Independence (separation from the world, and the commission to take our form of government into all the world). Preachers like John Witherspoon, Samuel Davies along with numerous others were persecuted for preaching the Saving Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ without a license from the English Crown, the Monarch is the head of the Anglican Church. Today we are aware of course and without the slightest controversy whatsoever that Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is the only head of His churches. All churches in these United States of America are separate from ALL government control and interference of any kind whatsoever!!!! Our Christian Constitutional Republic (please understand this has absolutely nothing to do with political parties) are totally tax immune, not taxable (who would dare to tax Almighty God's church, or His Holy Bible???). This was true until January 1, 1984 when un-Constitutional and therefore illegal unlawful legislation that cannot be enforced except by criminal action of out of control government. This is "law" which is a throw back to King George and taxation without representation. Come on now preacher? We have representatives in congress. Yes, you are very right we do have representatives in our government, but neither Almighty God nor His churches are represented. But this anti-Church law is a provision that illegally, unlawfully, and un-Constitutionally forces churches to withhold a certain percentage in Federal Insurance Contributions Act. Twenty years latter we witness government intruding into the affairs of the true church of the Most High, Holy, and Righteous Almighty God forcing churches to submit to "Public Policy", which is aborticide, homosexual "rights" unbelievably promoting same sex marriage. The churches are being forced to be "Politically Correct" which of course is most assuredly anti-God, Anti-Christ, Anti-Church, and Anti Holy Bible (Ten Commandments). Folks, our nation and our churches must be transformed. We must each and every one of us REPENT and return to the Almighty God of the Holy Bible, and reclaim the individual rights of our Constitutions, and Declaration of Independence. We must be transformed into real Americans. Many wrongly (fatally) think that they are Christians because they were born in America. Our precious Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ said we must be Born Again or we cannot enter His Kingdom. So Repentance and Transformation is the order of the day. Or we will continue to slide into the darkness; the presence of evil is evident in every aspect of our society; and so very sadly in most churches. Government, with the Churches silence- no opposition- is approval! We are now and have witnessed "Rogue" government agencies unlawfully performing domestic violence, padlocking, stealing, and burning churches, confiscating parsonages and property of the Lord's House. Way back in the year of 1933 the President of these United States of America tried his very best to tax churches! So very fortunate for the churches of the Living God, the Congress of these United States of America were almost without exception opposed to "Taxing God". This sadly is not true today where we tax Holy Bibles without even a blink of the eye!!!!!! We witness the so called church opposing the true believer that is standing for the Lordship of Jesus Christ. We even see the church of the Most High, Holy, and Righteous God under the headship a government agency. Since the time of Ancient Israel, it has never been lawful to impose toll (taxes), tribute (social security), custom (tax exemption in place of tax free) on the ministers of the untaxable House of God: "ALSO WE CERTIFY YOU, THAT TOUCHING ANY OF THE PRIESTS AND LEVITES, SINGERS, PORTERS, NETHINIMS OR MINISTERS OF THIS HOUSE OF GOD, IT SHALL NOT BE LAWFUL TO IMPOSE TOLL, TRIBUTE, OR CUSTOM, UPON THEM." Ezra 7: 24. Hands completely off of the House of Almighty God Jehovah and His ministers!!! Well folks, so very sad is the fact that by the year of our Lord 1951 the Congress of these United States of America unlawfully- anything that usurps any right is un-Constitutional and therefore un-enforceable-decided to impose a "voluntary" tax on the Most High God, His churches, and His ministers!!!! Fifty years after the failed attempt to Tax Almighty God and His House it has become mandatory. Mandatory Compliance is the byword of Despotism and Tyranny. "Men must be governed by God or they will be ruled by tyrants." William Penn the founder of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. LAW OF THE LAND: "The general misconception is that any statute passed by legislators bearing the appearance of law constitutes the law of the land. The Constitution of these United States of America is the law of the land, and any statute to be valid must be in agreement. It is impossible for a law which violates the Constitution to be valid. This is succinctly stated as follows. ALL LAWS WHICH ARE REPUGANT TO THE CONSTITUTION ARE NULL AND VOID." Maybury vs. Madison 5 US(eCranc) 137, 174, 176, (1803). The chairman of the Finance Committee way back in 1983 invited church leaders to attend hearings to determine their thoughts and feelings concerning the Lord's church paying tribute and custom to the government. Dr. Greg Dixon whose church, school, college, and parsonage were illegally seized -yes were stolen- by "Rogue" agencies of government federal, state, and yes local. Dr. Dixon remembers quite clearly a coordinator of the staff initially addressing the group of preachers present with the question: "What compromises concerning church taxation have you brought?" The stunned clergy that were present remained so very silent. But, praise the Lord, Dr. Dixon rose and courageously said: "WE HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER IN COMPROMISE." Dr. Dixon knew way back then that the power to tax is the power to destroy. Government control in any manner is to deny the sovereignty of the Lord's churches. The church must not nor can it finance the government through taxation, nor is the government to finance the churches through "Tax Exemption", which is a privilege not a right. A privilege can be taken away, a right is inalienable. Churches that are under the supreme and only authority of Almighty God are not, nor can they be represented in government, so therefore by right are un-taxable-tax free. This preacher along with others is on social security. But the church of the Living God as already stated is not to finance government, neither is the government to finance the church. So the church must have nothing to do with state or federal Tax Identification Numbers, and must never produce revenue for the government by paying taxes to help assure the solvency of the Social Security Trust Funds (which have been misappropriated-stolen by government for other purposes). The church of the Living God is an organism, and not an organization, nor does the church have employers and employees) are not open and answerable to the government, to inspection or dictates of the state!!!! Churches therefore cannot be required to be agents of the state by collecting, confiscating, and remitting to the state money that has already been taxed and freely given to the Most High, Holy, and Righteous Almighty God through tithes and offerings of God's children. Ministers of Almighty God are not employees, and churches cannot be servants of the state by keeping records for the state. We are just witnessing the coming persecution of the true believer, because the State church is established when the door is open to any control by government. The churches of the Most High, Holy, and Righteous Almighty God cannot be incorporated!!! The churches of the Living God cannot have EIN (employee identification number)!!! Endless impositions: "GOD IS SOVEREIGN; HE CANNOT BE TAXED. Well folks, the day has arrived, it is way after midnight, and so very sad is the undeniable fact that the churches of the Living God have led the way to perdition, proudly displaying the National Banner over and above the Cross of the Banner of Jesus Christ: this includes every true member of the church that goes along to get along with evil government. All government without Almighty God is absolutely and totally evil. Way back in the early 1970's a well known Evangelist predicted: "I predict that the final oppression of Christianity will start with taxation of independent churches, and missionary associations, thereby casting a shadow upon their integrity and raising doubts in the minds of their contributors. THE GOVERNMENT WILL HAUL MINISTERS OF THE GOSPEL INTO COURT ON ALLEGED TAX IRREGULARITIES AND CHALLENGE MINISTERIAL AUTHORITY OF INDEPENDENT MINISTERS- EVENTUALLY THE MINISTERS OF ALL CHRISTIAN CHURCHES. The government will get rid of independent ministers, churches and associations and a State church will be set up." Folks, it cannot be denied that we are facing this very situation in our former God Blessed Christian Constitutional Republic that our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and His apostles faced: Jesus and His apostles were declared to be against the government, and we are well aware of the results. History is repeating itself!!! The true Holy Bible believing, living, and practicing Christian who is living a Holy and Consecrated life is declared to be practicing hate, is indeed a terrorist and enemy of the state, subject to confiscation(stealing by government), imprisonment, and quiet ultimately death itself at the hands of the Satanically controlled government and "Church"! Our blessed nation was founded on the pure and undefiled religion of the Holy Bible. Biblical Christianity was the core of our Christian Constitutional Republic. We must once again transform these United States of America as founder John Adams stated: "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people." Founding Father our first President and General of the Armies said that "Government was a fearful master, and a dangerous servant" and that national morality cannot prevail IN EXCLUSION OF RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLE." James Madison the founding father of our Constitution wrote: "We have staked the whole future of American civilization...upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves according to the Ten Commandments." Our pledge to the flag "The Republic for which it stands"; and according to my grandson it is not the Battle Hymn of the Democracy, but the Battle Hymn of the Republic. We must transform ourselves by returning to the tried and true old paths. This transformation must start in the church of the Living God. "...Be strong and of good courage, and do it; fear not, nor be dismayed; for the Lord God, even my God, will be with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord." I Chronicles 28: 20. If we the believers fail to repent and transform ourselves to righteousness through Jesus Christ our prayers cannot even be heard. (IF) -the true believe must understand this word-my people(the children of the Most High God), which are called by my name(Christian), shall humble themselves(each and everyone in sack cloth and ashes), and pray(with a repented heart), and seek my face(forsaking our will, and seek only God's will), and turn from their wicked ways(the whole church must transform to repentance-if we fail to do so-Almighty God will not hear our prayers-and will send a strong delusion to believe a lie); then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin(the churches), and will HEAL THEIR LAND(These United States of America)." II Chronicles 7: 14. America must without fail transform: Because we have for the most part forgotten the Most, High, Holy, and Righteous Almighty God (The Father, The Son, and The Holy Ghost) Which Art In Heaven, we are experiencing “WICKED WEATHER” AND ENDLESS WAR heightened by TERRORISM. ONLY THE PRINCE OF PEACE CAN BRING ABOUT PEACE!!!!!!! “THE WICKED SHALL BE TURNED INTO HELL AND {ALL} NATIONS THAT FORGET GOD” Psalm 9: 17. National {REPENTENCE} must be the order of the day. No other way: our Precious Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is absolutely the only way!!!!!! Which Banner is the highest Flying Banner.  Chaplain Thomas Gilbert Cole
