Chapter Twelve :: Conspiracies
It is hard to write about government plots and intrigue without sounding as if there is some conspiracy teeming behind the scenes. Conspiracy theories abound. Some of these make our stomachs weak when we hear them.
We have reviewed a few conspiracies that have to do with international parks and the efforts of the elite to destroy our Constitution through environmental laws, brainwashing and population control. There is no way to revive and protect our Constitutional without an understanding of conspiracies and the fundamentals of liberty.
Nations and the Laws of God
At the core of all conspiracy is man's rebellion against God the Creator, Lawgiver and Redeemer. We opened the book with a review of the Tower of Babel. It was there that man rejected God's command to "be fruitful and fill the earth."[1] Since that time, there has been constant intrigue and conspiracy to circumvent God's promises and the God given rights of the people.
Of all the famous conspirators, Nebuchadnezzar was the greatest of all who ever lived. He dominated the Euro Asian continent and commanded absolute power. He even declared himself a god. Through Daniel, God told him that all the great empires that were to come, would descend from his Babylonian domain.[2] Every kingdom after him would increase in authority, yet diminish in strength. Then would come a kingdom, not of man, which would have absolute authority and never end; the Kingdom of Christ.[3]
Nebuchadnezzar refused to humble himself before God. He set himself up as a god and murdered those who would not worship him. So God humbled him. He became as an animal and ate the grass of the field for seven years. After he acknowledged that God was sovereign above all the governments of men, God restored him to his former glory.[4]
Babylonian tradition and methods of government were carried forward through the Greek and Roman empires and into the Anglo Saxon domain. This system continues to this day, even within our constitutional republic. William the Conqueror executed this form of government after he subjugated the Saxons of Briton. We already reviewed the Doomsday Book that he compiled, listing the assets of all property and lands within his domain. Now we use computers to database everything from products, inventories, payables and receivables, to information, land and people.
Some people have speculated that the beast spoken of in Revelation[5] may be a computer. As it turns out, there is a computer in Europe that is said to be named 'the Beast.' Purportedly, it can track every man, woman and child in the world, but it won't. Not every person will accept the identity or the mark of the Beast.[6]
There is only One who can open the books that hold the final and absolute inventory of man.[7] In the books are those who are listed for Life and those who are subject to the eternal Doomsday, the second death. The One who created the vastness of the heavens, the earth and everything on it, and the seas and all that is in them,[8] will be recognized as the Ruler of the ages.[9] He will destroy the Tower of Babel.[10] The Bible promises that, "every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord."[11] Whether we choose to reject Him as Nebuchadnezzar did or if we accept Him,[12] we will all give an account of ourselves to God.[13]
Nebuchadnezzar has come and gone; so also have Alexander the Great, the Caesars, Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin and others who desired to rule the world. Jesus Christ warned us not to fear conspiracies. These, at worst, could only kill our flesh. The One worth fearing is He who can cast body and soul into Hell.[14]
The LORD spoke to me with his strong hand upon me, warning me not to follow the way of this people. He said: "Do not call conspiracy everything that these people call conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. The LORD Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, He is the one you are to fear, He is the one you are to dread."[15]
What does religious philosophy have to do with international parks and conspiracies? The answer is simple; all nations are subject to the laws of God. Regardless, whether you personally decide to follow the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind, His laws are immutable. His law for the nations is as constant as the laws of gravity and Thermodynamics.
Centuries before William's conquest of England, the laws of the land, and much of Europe, reflected the loss of Godly values. They coddled their criminals, requiring retribution from the community for the criminal acts of one person. Often, capital punishment was meted out by lottery. Rather than punishing the criminal, whoever drew the short stick paid for the crime.
We have left the law of individual accountability. Society and victims pay for the crimes of the lawbreakers while we try to protect them from 'cruel and unusual' punishment. We have redefined 'cruel and unusual' to represent any restriction upon the violators liberty or psychology. We are over concerned about the self esteem of our criminals. Is it any wonder that we live in a barbaric society?
In his book, A Concise History Of The Common Law, Professor Theodore Plucknett describes the positive influence Christianity had in bringing England out of a pagan culture. Individual responsibility restored social order to the Anglo Saxon[16] countries. The Common Law, which birthed our legal system, was based upon individual accountability to God.
Christianity had inherited from Judaism an outlook upon moral questions which was strictly individualistic. The salvation of each separate soul was dependent upon the actions of the individual. This contrasted strongly with the customs of the English tribes which looked less to the individual than to the family group of which the individual formed a part. Necessarily such a system had little place for an individualistic sense of morals, for the group, although it was subjected to legal liability, can hardly be credited with moral intention in the sense that an individual can. With the spread of Christianity all this slowly changed. First, responsibility for actions gradually shifted from the whole group to the particular individual who did the act; and then the Church (and later the law) will judge the act, if necessary, from the point of view of the intention of the party who committed it.[17]
When we follow God's law we have a sound society. When we reject His commands we have anarchy and chaos. This does not mean that we must set up a theocracy. The fact is that our nation was established upon Biblical principle, and we have never had a theocracy.
Our forefathers did believe that nations and individuals, were accountable to God. The Declaration of Independence manifests rights that are established by God. It lists the violations of these rights by the king of England and every argument can be supported with Scriptural principle. Our Constitution, though not mentioning God, was a supplement to our Declaration of Independence. It defined the limits of government with principles that can be supported Biblically.
We have been blessed by God. Now we are watching our blessings erode. Some of us are trying to resolve the problems while continuing to ignore the hand of God and His requirements of moral law. We are abandoning the principles that brought us an orderly and prosperous society and are amazed at the increasing barbarism around us.
During the time that our nation was struggling for freedom, the French and Italians were engaged in a similar struggle. Our nation recognized the providential hand of God and individual and national accountability to Him. The other two nations did not. Since that time, the French and the Italians have experienced many revolutions. These two nations continue their struggle for the rights of man, yet our form of government has been preserved these 200 years.
Do we recognize, as our Founding Fathers did, where our rights come from? If our rights are man given or 'natural rights,' then to man we will be accountable. Thus, as in France and Italy, in the name of freedom the spoils go to the victor. The victor is accountable to nobody. The pecking order is established by power and to man we will be slaves.
On the other hand, if our rights are God given, our individual and national accountability will be to Him. Accountability to God instills honesty within the citizens and this advances honest government. When the people are honest, the government will be likewise and the same applies in reverse.
Therefore, we cannot solve the crises that embroil our nation without a return to the moral foundations that made our nation great. Our Constitution and Bill of Rights is the greatest document ever written by man among those enumerating the liberty of man and the limits of government. However, we do not have a blank check to do as we please-or as Alan Keyes says, "We do not have the right to do what is wrong." If we are not controlled by strong self-government, or God's law, outside forces must move in to restrain us. That is why John Adams said,
We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passion unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.Relative philosophy in a democratic society leads to socialism. Freedom can only be maintained by law-absolute right and wrong.
The Role of Conspiracies
Jeremiah, the Old Testament prophet, tells us that conspiracies are designed to lead us back to God.[18] He warns that conspiracies will abound if we continue to neglect or reject God and His law. Eventually the conspiracies will prevail and we will meet with disaster.[19] Ezekiel, another Old Testament prophet, affirms with Jeremiah that if we continue to neglect God's warnings we will go into slavery.[20]
We can run around like Chicken Little, warning everybody that the sky is falling, or full of black helicopters, but we accomplish nothing. If all the conspiracies of the elite were real and immediate, and everyone knew it, then what?
This is not a complicated world. Our problems, nationally and internationally, are simple: we have rejected God. What is complicated is that we are trying to piece together a constitutional republic based upon liberty and equal rights while ignoring the Lawgiver who gave us these rights. The conspiracies of International Parks and other New World Order paradigms are only a symptom of our neglect of God. To defeat them, the solution is simple; return to the laws of God.[21]
"My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge."[22] If we recognize God's law, we live in freedom and safety. If we reject God's law, tyranny will prevail.
I am going to borrow a closing that I first heard from Cal Thomas, one of my favorite journalists. He borrowed it from another great statesman, Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln quite likely borrowed this from Nehemiah chapter 9.
We have been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us.[23]
May God save our nation.
