The Constitution is null and void in all practicality and effect in the halls of power in this nation.
Adding new amendments to it will avail ABSOLUTELY NOTHING - except to provide a justification and authorization for what will be necessary to resist tyrants.
New Amendments will not restrain those now in power, as we are ruled by a lawless government that is a law only unto itself.
How big an army does The Supreme Court have?
Demoralizing words that sound like surrender to me. But there are those like me who will never acquiesce or surrender to tyranny.
It’s a fight for freedom. Freedom is well worth fighting for and if necessary dying for. It’s what our country is all about.
I stated a fact there in that post:
A society of people who are no longer governed by God, will be ruled by the tyranny of men.
I really don't care if you think if stating the reality of the battlefield we find ourselves on is 'demoralizing'. You do not win wars by lying to yourself about how free we still are or how invincible you think we are while ignoring the reality of what has been allowed to be erected on top of us.
If you are going to fight for liberty, as intended - then understand where we find ourselves in relation to the heights the enemy has entrenched itself in.
I become more convinced each day that this people have absolutely no clue what has ALREADY been done to us, and such people are NOT going to endure what is coming with either their faith or principles intact.
We are in a fight beyond liberty at this point. I fear by the time enough wake up to reality - it's going to be too late to fight for anything beyond raw survival.
We need to realize the absolutely DIRE situation we find ourselves in and what it portends if we are not willing to do what is necessary to resist what is being done to us. And when I say resist - I do not mean going to the polls to vote for a ruling class stooge portraying themselves as a messiah.
If we want to fight for liberty - then it better begin now. We need to do what our forbears did and refuse to abide by this tyranny now ruling us and consider it null and void.
You’re preaching to the choir my FRiend but it’s nice to see others who are not in denial about how far down the road we’ve gone. That is why I say that for now at least, forget about the feds who are probably 80% or about $3 trillion unconstitutional, are beyond repair, and have no desire in the least to get fixed because it would mean DRASTIC downsizing.
We are at the individual state level now in defensive mode to reject and nullify unconstitutional federal acts which by definition are acts of tyranny. This is where I see the fight at this point. But let’s build confidence in others, not discouragement, to do what we can and must.
Let’s not build false bravado and in trumping confidence and surety we water-down the clear and present danger now upon us.
For that is what I see happening across the Conservative spectrum. The zealous desire to only ‘think positive’ that we are going to ‘rise up’ and ‘save ourselves’ relegates many to simply thinking that all they have to do is send in money to political candidates and assure themselves that the next president is going to be our salvation.
I think the vast majority of us are infected with a fatal case of Normalcy Bias - and we need to scream about what will happen to us if we do not arrest the fall we are currently on.
God in scripture did not mince words in describing the consequences that would befall His people for their apathy and accommodation of sinfulness. I think we need to do the same, or many will not think we are in the dire situation we find ourselves in.
Look, count the cost, be realistic, but no need to be morose, sour, or bitter. No one will follow you that way and you invite defeat. Our Founders knew and acknowledged the risks involved but they didn’t wallow in it. They moved based on belief in the virtue of freedom and hope against the odds. You’ve got to have hope and pass it on to others. Otherwise, we’re spinning our wheels.
And as I’ve said for a long time now and glad to see others like you saying it, America’s salvation isn’t coming from some “political savior” so many seem to look for. It will come when the American People take stock and via their states, stand against the feds.
The “political savior” thing is a symptom of our #1 problem: trusting in man instead of God. This problem, in turn, is the source of our #1 political problem: a $4 trillion federal government, $3 trillion of which is unconstitutional and illegal.
The political fix must be preceded by a spiritual fix. We’re in God’s hands.
Exactly. I have been attempting to work on that aspect of things, but alas, the church in America these days it seems has gone full Laodecia on us.
Some like myself, believe that the Laodecian Age began around 1900, after the end of the wonderful Philadelphia age in the 1700’s & 1800’s. We’re nearing the end of the last age before Jesus comes, IMO - the signs are overwhelming.
But God has promised that the latter rain of his Spirit will be greater than the former rain. There is beginning of a tremendous pouring out of God’s grace around around the world unlike anything I’m aware of that has happened before.
So although the church in general and the age is characterized by a self-sufficient, “we have need of nothing [including God]” attitude, there’s definitely a remnant of dedicated Philadelphia types around who know God’s love and love others.
So I think there’s reason to hope for a “rebirth of freedom”, spiritually and politically in America and around the world one last time which could last for a few decades. So although we see that Day approaching, I have reason to believe God’s grace and mercy is and will be poured out in a great, sort of final in-gathering before He comes to get us and it all comes down. We’re living in exciting and prophetic days.
