Collectivism or Individualism II

“Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution

and to the Republic

for which it stands.

Miracles do not cluster

and what has happened once in 6,000 years,

may not happen again.

Hold on to the Constitution,

for if the American Constitution should fail,

there will be anarchy

throughout the world.”

Daniel Webster

E Pluribus Unum:

Collectivism or Individualism?

The Many, One.

Out of Many, One.

The People, as One.

One People.

A collective of individuals,

or

Individuals of a collective?

A group mind,

or a group of minds?

A body,

or a mob?

A democracy or a republic?

Article II Section 1

The Constitution

for the State of Colorado:

“All political power

is vested in and derived from

the people;

all government, of right,

originates from

the people,

is founded upon

their will only,

and is instituted solely

for the good of the whole.”

But wait!!!!

It does not say:

“Let everyone be subject

to the governing authorities,

for there is no authority

except that which God has established.

The authorities that exist

have been established by God.

Consequently, whoever rebels

against the authority

is rebelling against

what God has instituted,

and those who do so

will bring judgment on themselves.”

Romans 13.1-2

The underlying belief system

always determines

even dictates, the outcome.

Individuals who surrender

their individuality,

to a collective pool

of a particular group mind,

a relative world of collective ego,

of public opinion,

relinquish their identity

to assimilation

into the whole

and cease to be governed by

the internal mechanism

of spiritual conscience,

the distinguishing power

of the self-determination

of choice.

This is bondage,

the very nature of

voluntary servitude.

Those who choose to maintain

their identity,

by refusing to surrender

their distinctiveness

by assimilation into

the collective pool

of a particular group mind

and contribute

to the common weal,

give of themselves

out of their abundance.

What is a Republic?

Republic

Re-public

“Re” means “In the matter of,”

“Public” means, “not private”

who gets to decide

what is not private?

It is generally accepted

by the lawyer world,

the world of the judiciary,

the keepers of the law,

that the term

“Republic”

is derived from

the Latin Term

“Res Publica”:

“Res” meaning:

“an affair, a matter, thing or circumstance”

"Publica" meaning

“the public”

which is distinguished from

not private.

Republic means

public affairs, matters, things or circumstances

as distinguished from

Private affairs, matters, things or circumstances.

The People’s Republic of China (China)

(China is a single-party state

governed by the Communist Party of China)

The Republic of China (Taiwan)

Not to be confused with the People's Republic of China.

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.)

compare:

The United States of America

Articles of Confederation

To all to whom these Presents shall come, we the undersigned Delegates of the States affixed to our Names send greeting.

Whereas the Delegates of the United States of America in Congress assembled did on the fifteenth day of November in the Year of our Lord One Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy seven, and in the Second Year of the Independence of America, agree to certain articles of Confederation and perpetual Union between the States of New Hampshire, Massachusetts-bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, in the words following, viz:

Articles of Confederation and perpetual Union between the States of New Hampshire, Massachusetts-bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia.

---

Article I. The Stile of this Confederacy shall be "The United States of America."

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.

Preamble, Constitutional for the United States of America.

as distinguished from

The Republics of the United States of America

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>NOT!<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

The Constitution for the United States of America

at Article 4 Section 4 Clause 1

provides that:

“The United States shall guarantee

to every State in this Union

a Republican Form of Government . . .”

as distinguished from:

“shall guarantee  . . . a republic”

As Benjamin Franklin was leaving the building where the Constitution had been completed after four months of hard work, a lady asked him what kind of government the convention created. A very old, very tired, and very wise Benjamin Franklin replied;

"A Republic, ma'am if you can keep it."

When

the Pledge of Allegiance

is recited,

is the pledge made,

to America?

or to

“the United States of America”?

and is the

United States of America

The name of the confederacy entered into

by the Articles of Confederation?

Or a government created under

the Constitution

for the United States of America?

“to the Flag

of

The United States of America

“And to the republic

 for which it stands . . .”

This is a pledge of allegiance

to the government

created by the

Constitution for

the United States of America.

The Constitution for the United States of America 

did not create America.

Collectivism or Individualism

E Pluribus Unum:

Collectivism

or Individualism?

The many, one.

Out of many, one.

Many Individuals,

One People.

"The People"

"We, The People

of Colorado"

or

"We, the People

of the United States"

Is "We"

a collective of individuals,

or

Are “We”

The individuals of a collective?

Is we

a group mind,

or

are we

or a group of minds?

Are we a body,

or a mob?

The underlying belief system

always determines

the outcome

of the circumstances within which we live.

Individuals who surrender

their individuality,

to a collective pool

of a particular group mind,

a relative world of collective ego,

a realm of public opinion,

relinquish their identity,

to be assimilated thereby,

and cease to be governed by

the internal mechanism

of self-government,

the power

that comes from awareness,

the distinguishing sovereignty

of self-determination,

of choice.

The absence of choice

is bondage,

servitude,

slavery.

Science of the State

“Politics” means

science of the state.

“State” is derived from

the Greek word

πόλις (Polis)

which translated is

city,

the root of the term

πολιτεία (Politeia)

meaning community or commonwealth,

a member of which is

πολίτης (Polites)--

a citizen.

This is the basis

of the philosophy of

the unity of

many individuals together

combined as one,

in a collective sense;

bound together

as a body--

the etymology

of the concept

“e pluribus unum”

the many as one,

the Body Politic,

indivisible--

the principal

State,

or Nation

The bond of unity

required to maintain

an undivided,

and undividable

society

can only be formed and sustained

at the core,

at the rudimentary level

by we who are

who we are;

as distinguished from

the person we project

as ourselves, as a mask;

our veneer.

Only in our authenticity,

in our transparency

is our citizenship real.

Anything short of this is

mechanical,

rote,

automatonic

disingenuous

shallow, and destined

to fail,

being subject to the principle

of divide and conquer.

Ominously Revolutionary.

There are a lot of educated people in America;

but being educated

does not make us intelligent or smart.

America’s churches and schools

have not worked to produce

an intelligent society;

they have discouraged,

even overridden

intelligence

and manufactured instead

a safe structure,

an institutionalized,

color by the number

work within

the confines of the box

mechanism.

There is a difference between

being taught what to believe

and being taught how to believe;

between being taught

what to think

and how to think;

between being taught how to learn,

and being programmed.

American institutions do not educate;

rather they enslave.

They program the mind

and train the ego.

The certificate on the wall,

even the diploma,

is more important than

the gift of innate intelligence.

Americans indoctrinated by the institution

are assimilated into the machine,

assuming their position

as programmed automatons

mere branches and limbs

embodying

and facilitating

the will of the system

expressed as public opinion,

The De Facto American Idol.

A tree is known by its fruit.

The tree called America

was cut down

out from underneath us

even right before our eyes;

but most do not even recognize

what was done

or how it was done.

It was dismantled

and most do not even know

cannot even conceive

what it was.

Cut down in her prime,

she was replaced by another,

one that is being used,

manipulated

by the influence and control

of a very powerful mind.

Blinded by ambition

deaf to reason

dumb and wholly without expression,

most Americans are trapped,

not only by their own personal labyrinth

but in the insignificant babble

of the collective

to which they contribute,

oblivious to the non-reality

engineered around them

within which they are enslaved,

fearfully hiding behind the veneer

they project of themselves

and onto others.

This is status quo America.

anything else is unusual,

even ominously revolutionary.

Intro to the Kingdom

The kingdom of Heaven is the dominion of the Creator within which the Chosen, Anointed One Yahshua, has been given all power. As proof that this power is the power to rule, we need look no further than the apostles who walked with Yashua during his tenure on Earth.  These apostles were convinced that he was the prophesied son of David who would rule as King over the houses of Judah and Israel, and were tempted by the understanding that came with that knowledge—They looked for the restoration of Israel, a hierarchy established where they would rule and reign with him in his kingdom.  Instead, as part of Yahshua’s plan to expose the corruption of governments of the world,  Yahshua offered himself as a sacrifice to be tortured and murdered by usurpers and abusers of force masquerading as government, after which he was raised from the dead an immortal being inducted into the eternal order of Melchisedec, and inaugurated as King of Earth occupying an invisible, eternal throne, and thereafter commissioning his disciples to proclaim his victory, and to make disciples of all nations.

Yahshua is the King of Earth in a very real, very present, very political sense; but his power and authority is not recognized by the People of Earth because his dominion is not even dignified by those who, calling themselves Christian, consider themselves His people.  Rather, Yahshua is looked to as having established the religion of Christianity, but not as having come into his own and establishing the kingdom of Heaven on Earth. Christendom takes a very shallow view of the kingdom of Heaven, denying the King’s dominion they purport to worship, by postponing the kingdom, choosing to look forward to a future time when Yahshua returns to establish his kingdom, but neglects to realize that his dominion within this kingdom began when he was born, and shall continue from that day forward, even to forever.

Christendom is not the first people to struggle with this concept.  The people of Israel also resisted the invisible king concept when they rejected God as King and demanded of the prophet Samuel to be provided with a king they could see.  Israel wanted to be like other nations, having a monarch that would distinguish them as a kingdom among other nations of Earth. Rejecting Samuel’s strict warning that a king would do them more harm that good, Samuel eventually anointed Saul as King, which ended the dominion of the Creator as King of Israel.

Christianity has gone the way of ancient Israel and Judah, looking to the world’s political systems as a means to recognition and standing in the world to derive their credibility.  Failing to trust in that which is unseen, many who claim to follow the teachings of Yahshua relative to the kingdom of heaven, turn to the institutions and governments of the world to provide the security that can only be derived from the King of Earth.  It is this rejection, this incessant insecurity in the hearts of men, that blinds them to the truth, and causes them to look to the temporal to do for them that which only the principles of the kingdom can accomplish.

So detached from the reality of the Messiah’s present reign is Christendom, that the notion of dignifying the kingdom of Heaven as a legitimate power on Earth is ridiculed by the very vessel that purports to be the means of establishing it.

The so-called Christian church is blind to the most important thing they are ordained to establish—that the kingdom of Heaven is at hand, present, here in this moment, now and always.  Until we come into the fullness of this knowledge, acknowledge the King’s eternal dominion as a force on earth, the kingdom of heaven will remain far off in the distant, a future that will remain just that—the future.

Citizen-Subject or Citizen-Sovereign

An amendment

was added to the

Constitution for

the United States of America

after the war between the States

defining

a citizen of the United States

to be

“all persons

born

or naturalized

in

the United States

and

subject to

the jurisdiction

thereof . . .”.

In law,

every word

is important

in understanding
the intent

of the law.

Each element

has significant meaning

and purpose.

The 14^th Amendment

is no different.

It defines

a political body:

“persons born or naturalized

in the United States

and subject to

the jurisdiction

thereof,”

and then assigns

the status of citizenship

to that political body:

“are citizens of

the United States,

and of the state

wherein they reside.”

Prior to

the 14^th Amendment

members of

the sovereign body politic

did not derive their

citizenship

from
the Constitution for

the United States of America.

Neither did they

after the adoption

of the 14^th Amendment.

Neither do they now.

A second class

of citizenship

was created and established

after

the Civil War,

by the government

who was created and established by

the American People.

Americans,

members of the

sovereign body politic

are not members

of the political body

created by

and established under

the 14^th amendment.

Citizenship under the 14^th amendment

is a membership benefit

derived from the 14^th amendment.

Citizenship

in the sovereign body politic

is a membership benefit

derived from the Creator.

Eliminate either

the Creator

or the sovereign body politic

from the equation

and America is

a conquered nation,

a mere idea

of the past.
