When I was a child, I was very insecure and impressed by what by what adults thought. I was made to feel that God was looking down at me from Heaven and frowning at my sinful thoughts. I wished so that I could be in control of my life. That was not to be. At age 49, my business enterprise was on the rocks and my second wife was divorcing me. I felt that my life was over. I was forced to change. I cut from the herd and went on my own, according to everyone I knew, not the thing to do. No one wished me well, and especially the IRS. They took from me what was not theirs to take. I’d nobody to blame but myself. I had the gall to tell Uncle Sam in a letter to the Attorney General that the United States was unconstitutional in its tax collection practices. I had notions about tax that most would have said were psychotic. Common sense says you don’t question the income tax. Everyone must pay his fair share of the tax burden, like it or not.
Coincidentally, I departed my north Texas home on Good Friday, March 1975, and arrived in Miami on Easter Sunday for the first day of my new life. Since I’d been self-employed, I was not government entitled to unemployment pay. I was forced to immediately find work. America was in a deep recession in 1975, yet on my third phone call I found work. Down the street from my one-room pad, there was a mile-long food stamp line. Why work on jobs like I took when you were better off to collect unemployment benefits—out of my meager pay.
Since I was single with no deductions, a substantial part of my wages was withheld by my employer to pay Uncle Sam, who was redistributing the revenue to certain people who were not working.
I could not make ends meet with my take-home pay. I was locked out of my room for non-payment of rent, not a good thing for entry-level workers struggling to get a foothold, and especially for this 49 year-old. Uncle Sam does not make this fact of life for millions of workers known. Legal but lawless, Uncle Sam cares not about making people like me homeless. Nazi law was the same. The good of all is all that counts. A revolution is taking place. People being taken by corrupt politicians are causing the world to go through a radical change.
Nobody I’ve heard in American politics seems to know what I know, whether they be advocates of, especially, the religious right, or conservative, or liberal, or independent. I’m a voice thousands are hearing and on which they comment favorably (at www.mymiraclemessage.com ). The truth, stranger than fiction, is something most people are terribly reluctant to hear. Most, especially liberals, prefer to live in hope. How many times have I heard from liberals, “we can hope,” or “pray for peace,” or “just give Obama a chance; he inherited Bush’s abomination?” Rationalize till the cows come home. It doesn’t change the facts. America is going down the tube. For every rich citizen, there are a hundred poor citizens, and the poor are getting poorer, and more dependent on government. Will we never learn that government entitlement is against natural law?
In the second chapter of The Gospel According to St. Matthew, The Visit of the Magi; that is, the visit the “three wise men,” Persian priests—astrologers—in those days advisors of rulers, they arrived in Jerusalem saying, “where is he that is born King of Jews?” When King Herod heard this he was troubled, and all of Jerusalem. We read that Herod gathered the chief priests and scribes of the people, those who read the stars and advised kings. Herod demanded of them to let him know where Jesus would be born. They told Herod Jesus would be born in Bethlehem, that a new star had appeared over Bethlehem. So we read, the Magi were led by the Star of Bethlehem to the Christ-child’s birthplace.
In the sixth chapter of Matthew, concerning prayer, Jesus told his following, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven (heaven spelled with a small h).” Then Jesus rebuked external authority. “That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father, which is in secret (and not in a place called Heaven), and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly. . .” Jesus, with regard to the kingdom, said, “Lay not up for yourselves treasure upon earth. . .but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven (with a small h), for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. . .” Jesus went on to say, “No man can serve two masters.” Quite obviously, Jesus had reference to external authority, for he followed with, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God.” Jesus clearly distinguished heaven and earth as different than the kingdom of God. Thus, thy kingdom come, whose will be done in earth as it is in heaven? The kingdom of God lies in our hearts and souls. You don’t listen and do what authority tells you to do. Jesus didn’t listen and do what the priests and scribes told him to do. Instead, Jesus turned over the moneychangers tables in the temple, the source of the priests and scribes revenue. Why wasn’t I taught this in my Christian religion? It wasn’t my sins that got Jesus hung from the cross. I wasn’t “born in sin.” I was born innocent. What the clergy teaches about Jesus is quite different than what Jesus taught. It’s a control thing.
As a Christian, I was taught that Adam and Eve were disobedient to God’s command. They were not to partake in the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. The Serpent told Eve if she ate from said tree she would have the knowledge of the gods. What life on earth knows not evil? All life save humans. God, the authority, wants us to know only good. Nice work if you can get it. Obey authority—be animals jumping through hoops—for authority knows what is good for us; we, the people, don’t. Yes, President Obama’s edict will bring us “collective salvation,” and put an end to Israel in the process—for the good of all.
Should we blindly trust authority, religious or otherwise, give up our own lives? Jesus made it quite clear that your pie is not in the sky but in your heart and soul. And where does your Constitution leave authority? “We, the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, 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.” Those words say authority is subject to the will of the people, not its will. So why not?
America was not founded on the Judeo-Christian faith. In God we trust—in the Higher Law, the background of the Constitution, in natural law, for, “We are born for justice, and right is not the mere arbitrary construction of opinion but an institution of nature.” Cicero. “We are the law’s slaves that we may be free.”
Jesus taught that we are our brother’s keeper. “We” do not yet know who we are and why we are here. External authority, be it religious or secular, thinks it is here to help us do the best we can. In so doing, authority robs the individual of his rights and responsibilities. What chance do we have of being our sacred selves?
In 1975, I was forced to make a change. I started over, coincidentally, on Easter Sunday, to build a new life. The world was against me.
In principle, government entitlement is no different that Nazi law—some entitled, some not—by the will of power. Anything can be seen as good for all by those in control, including taking all power away, that which the Creator gave the individual. Thomas Jefferson wrote on this in the Declaration of Independence. “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,” God-given rights, those in the heart and soul.
Once the gate is opened and the horse is out it is hard to get him back. Once you give a politician power over you, it is next to impossible to get it back. Politicians are for the good of all at your individual expense. Consequently, when I began anew to make a life, as an entry level worker, as a single with no deductions, my withholding tax deprived me of a basic existence. That is not good for entry-level workers. It is not good for non-workers. It is good for authority. Nobody else counts. We are pawns. It gives authority control, authority with the ability to borrow against future taxpayers unlimitedly. It is not good now or ever, butt it is being done by the people the Tea Party elected. You can’t depend on any of them. Money goes where money flows. The rich get richer; the poor get poorer by means of government entitlement. But, pray tell me, why would mindless, power hungy government want to rid itself of the uncontrolled growth of power? Uncontrolled, government, like a cancer, will grow until it kills the society it governs. History is replete with examples.
There is no valid reason why an individual of sound mind and body should receive a government entitlement. It is not God’s will. It is not written in the Constitution, or even implied. All any student of the law can rightly say is that government entitlement is the law of might makes right. At the present, government entitlement is America’s biggest bone of contention. With more than half of the people benefitting from government entitlement, the majority vote keeps the greatest fraud of all times in place, and currently bankrupting the nation morally, spiritually, and fiscally.
No one can give you the answer that will save you from a coming disaster the likes of which the world has never seen, but here’s the good news. Jesus was here at the beginning of the Age of Pisces. Pisces people are extremely responsive to other people, the way I was before my change. They desperately want to do the right thing, exactly the way I was. Why didn’t the people I was associated with know that? Pisces people are easily influenced by external factors, the way I was. It is par for the course, their symbol two attached fish swimming in opposite directions. We are now in a war that will end all wars.
Astrologers say that in my forties I’d be inclined to change my immature way of life. When I was 49, I cut from the herd and went strictly on my own. I discovered the real me. I was reborn. Astrologer’s Handbook says that “individuals born under the sign of brotherhood and fraternity have as their symbol the water-bearer, who spills out to mankind the life-force and spiritual energy.” We are at the dawn of the age when peace and good will abound.
