Freedom

Tomorrow I will post a letter (written by a retired Constitutional Lawyer) which shows specific freedoms that will be lost as a result of the new Health Care Reform if it is not overthrown. I thank Richard and Natalie for forwarding this to me. Because the Health Reform has things in it which are unconstitutional, and because the Constitution has authority above all other laws - I have great hope that it will be overthrown! Please keep informed, and pray to know and do all that you can to keep our country free!

For today, I will share just a few of the things that have been on my mind since the 21st (which, though it were only two days ago, feels so much longer with all that has been running through my mind).

I have been thinking about freedom - and the magnificent value of freedom.

I have thought of the cleverness of men, and the way they seek to take away our freedom, in the names of kindness and security.

It has sickened me to see our freedoms being so quickly yanked away from us.

I think of our founding fathers and the great people who fought so long ago to establish this wonderful free country known as America.

My stomach feels sick for the losses that occurred to grant us this freedom, and the reality that if things continue to go as they are now - great losses could be necessary again in order to gain those freedoms back. I pray now, that the American people will wake up and see what is going on, and not let our freedoms be taken away!

I am thankful for people who research, study, and pray to see and to share the truth. I am thankful for people who do blogs about these things... I saw a video on one of these sites which I would like to share with you today.



This video reminds me, once again, of Satan, and his plan. He, like the monster in the movie 300- (and like particular "leaders"), isn't really "nice." In reality, he is proud, arrogant and power hungry - so power hungry that he seeks to take our freedom away to get it.

A scripture has been on my mind a lot lately - it tells what Lucifer did that was so horrible, that he was cast out of Father's presence as a result of it.

...and even so great that he became the devil as a result of that great sin.

3. "Wherefore, because that Satan rebelled against me, AND SOUGHT TO DESTROY THE AGENCY OF MAN, which I the Lord God, had given him, and also that I should give unto him mine own power; by the power of mine Only Begotten, I caused that he should be cast down;

4. And he became Satan, yea even the devil, the father of all lies, to deceive and to blind men, and to lead them captive at his will, even as many as would not hearken unto my voice."

Moses 4:3-4

It was the sin of seeking to take our freedom away...

Though Satan's true motive for seeking to take our freedoms away was out of pride and power, and not one of kindness... Satan knew we would not hand over our freedom for those reasons, so he sought to get us to hand over our freedom under the guise of security, safety - and kindness...

Satan's goal hasn't changed. He is still going about striving to lead the children of God into bondage. Bondage of sin, bondage of addictions, and bondage of dependence, bonds which result from ignorance etc., - some of which are offered in exchange for the very luring guises of security and safety. And he has political leaders under his thumb, aiding him with his evil goals, whether they realize it or not.

There is no doubt about it; the war that began in heaven rages still today - it is the battle NOT ONLY of how we will use our freedom while away from our Heavenly Father; BUT ALSO it is the battle OF MAKING CHOICES which will insure that we KEEP OUR FREEDOM!

To keep it - we must wake up and recognize what bills and laws in question are really there to do... if they are there to be "nice" to us, ask yourself if you will lose your freedom to get that "nice" product being offered... and ask yourself if it is something that should be "handed" to responsible adults.

'Those who would sacrifice freedom for security deserve neither' - Benjamin Franklin
"Our safety, our liberty, depends upon preserving the Constitution of the United States as our fathers made it inviolate. The people of the United States are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts - not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution." - Abraham Lincoln

Government is not God. Government is there to serve the people. We the people - are to rule the government - not the other way around!

I pray daily that the "changes" which would take away our freedoms, which are in the process of taking place now... will be stopped! I pray that the American people will wake up and see what is happening, and make their voices heard, and fight to retain our Constitution which keeps us free!

  1. Cen't wait to read it, Corine! I, too, am just appalled at the passing of this bill. In fact, I started to rant about it on my blog, and then deleted it because I was just so negative.
