Are We Loosing Our Freedoms?

11/30/2021

This question has concerned me a lot over the past few months. Our country's government seems to be making decisions that are eroding our freedoms daily! That, of course, may be true. We must always be vigilant to protecct our freedoms.

But I want to propose another perspective. What if... every time we rail against anything, we are giving away our freedom? That is, the freedom of our alignment with who we really are. As my friend, Abraham, says, "This isn't about what you do or don't do."

When asked about whether the mandates for vaxx-ing are taking away our freeom, Abraham answered, "We get it that you can call this some lack of freedom. But there is so much more evolution and expansion in the decisions that you are making. . . Because it's the pushing against that takes your freedom and your Well-being and your joy.

This is a much higher perspective than most of us usually have as a knee-jerk reaction to what is going on around us. For me that is true anyway.

Instead, I always want to stop and consider, "could there be more expansion and growth for me and all others than I can see here and now?"

Then, I take a couple of deep breaths and ask, "doesn't that feel better? Or does it feel worse? Or does it feel about the same?" I repeat the breathing until I can say, "yes, that feels a little better!"

That's the path to joy, to enlightenment and total FREEDOM! Little by little moving up the Emotional Guidance Scale.

Follow Your Highest Joy!

11/29/2021

Following your highest joy every moment of your life is the direct path to your highest potential and true spiritual enlightenment.

There are infinite timelines branching out from your present moment -- NOW. The timeline to your highest potential already exists. All you need do is match the vibration to allow the attraction to happen.

Your emotions are like an inner compass or GPS to guide you to all the most positive possibilities in your now and your future.

APPRECIATION is the key. Feel for all the blessings in your life and you will then attract more unimaginable blessings and joy. Appreciation is a more pure vibration than gratitude. Gratitude is often slightly contaminated with negative things that you are grateful to be rid of! Appreciation is more joyful and pure.

To better understand the Emotional Scale and how you can consciouly move up to the highest feelings of joy, appreciation, and love follow the teachings of Abraham-Hicks on Youtube and their website. Download the Emotional Guidance Scale here.

We appreciate each and every one of you!

The Real Story of Thanksgiving!

11/22/2021

Just prior to Thanksgiving, I want to quote a story that Rush Limbaugh told his listeners every year for the 31 years he was on radio. It puts that first Thanksgiving in perspective – AND IS NOT TAUGHT THIS WAY IN OUR SCHOOLS!

The story of the Pilgrims begins in the early part of the seventeenth century… The Church of England under King James I was persecuting anyone and everyone who did not recognize the church’s absolute civil and spiritual authority, actually, church and state were one in the same.

Those who challenged ecclesiastical authority and those who believed strongly in freedom of worship were hunted down. This is in England in the 1600s. They were hunted down and imprisoned, and sometimes executed for their beliefs. A group of separatists, people who didn’t want any part of this, first fled to Holland and established a community.

They were there for eleven years. After eleven years, about forty of these separatists agreed to make a perilous journey to the New World. They had heard about it. Some new, exciting place that hadn’t been developed. They knew they would face hardships.

We don’t know the hardship these people endured. We can’t. We are way too advanced now. People who lived in the 1600s would not believe life today. They knew they would face hardships, but paramount importance to them was living freely and worshiping God according to the dictates of their own consciences, their own beliefs. That’s what they were denied the freedom to do in England.

On August 1, 1620, the Mayflower set sail. It carried a total of 102 passengers, including forty of these separatists, the Pilgrims. There were just 40 of them. They were led by William Bradford. On the journey across the Atlantic. You talk about something that had to be frightening and scary?

The Mayflower was not much bigger than a 50-foot boat, and 102 people on it. On the journey, Bradford set up an agreement, a contract if you will, that established just and equal laws for all [40] members of the [Pilgrim] community, irrespective of their religious beliefs. It didn’t matter what their religious beliefs were.

These are the laws they were all agreeing to live by. Where did the revolutionary ideas, these laws, come from? We’re talking about the Mayflower Compact. That is what Bradford wrote. The Mayflower Compact was derived from the Bible. The Pilgrims were a people completely steeped in the lessons of the Old and New Testaments.

They were devoutly religious people. No matter what else is said about them (and even that is denied), they were devoutly religious. They looked to the ancient Israelites for their example. And, because of the biblical precedents set forth in Scripture, they never doubted that their experiment would work.
They never doubted they would get to the New World. They never doubted that once they got there, they would thrive. The journey was long; it was arduous; it was dangerous. And when they finally landed, when the Pilgrims finally landed in New England in November, according to William Bradford’s detailed journal, they found a cold, barren, desolate wilderness. Imagine New England as it exists today as nothing but rocks, forest, undeveloped nature in November and getting colder.

There were no friends to greet them. There was no shelter of any kind other than hiding under a tree, there was nothing. It was desolate. There were no hotels. There were no inns. There were no places to clean up. There were no houses. I mean, this was real hardship. The sacrifice that they had made for the freedom to worship was just beginning.

During that first winter — remember, they arrived in November — during that first winter, half of them, including William Bradford’s own wife, died of starvation, of sickness, exposure to the elements. When spring finally came — and, by the way, writing that doesn’t do it justice. Spring didn’t just finally come. It was a survival.

It was an act of survival that you and I cannot possibly relate to or understand. American Special Forces can. Military people who’ve been trained can understand what the Pilgrims were — you and I can’t. We’ve never done anything like that first winter in the New World. They survived it. Spring finally came.

They did meet the Indians, the Native Americans who were there did help them in planting corn and fishing for cod. They showed them where the beavers were so the beavers could be skinned for coats, other things.

But even at this, even with this degree of assistance from the Indians, the Native Americans, there wasn’t any prosperity yet. They had the Mayflower Compact. They had these laws they were living by, and there was no prosperity. This is where modern American history lessons end, with the Indians teaching the Pilgrims how to eat, how to fish, how to skin beavers, and all that.

That’s where it ends. And that’s the feel-good story. But that doesn’t even get close to the true story. You know, Thanksgiving is actually explained in some textbooks as a holiday for which the Pilgrims gave thanks to the Indians for saving their lives. It wasn’t that. That happened, but Thanksgiving was a devout expression of gratitude, the Pilgrims, to God for their survival, and everything that was a part of it.

Now, here’s the part that has been omitted. The original contract the Pilgrims entered into in Holland — they had sponsors. They didn’t have the money to do this trip on their own. They had sponsors. There were merchant sponsors in London and in Holland. And these merchant sponsors demanded that everything that the Pilgrims produced in the New World would go into a common store, a single bank, if you will. And that each member of the Pilgrim community was entitled to one share.

So everybody had an equal share of whatever was in that bank. All of the land they cleared, all of the houses they built belonged to that bank, to the community as well. And they were going to distribute it equally, because they were going to be fair. So all of the land that they cleared and all the houses they built belonged to everybody. Belonged to the community. Belonged to the bank, belonged to the common store. Nobody owned anything. They just had an equal share in it. It was a commune.
The Pilgrims established a commune, essentially. Forerunner of the communes we saw in the sixties and seventies out in California. They even had their own organic vegetables, by the way. Yep. The Pilgrims, forerunners of organic vegetables. Of course, what else could there be? No such thing as processed anything back then.

Now, William Bradford, who had become the governor of the colony because he was the leader, recognized that this wasn’t going to work. This was costly and destructive, and it just wasn’t working. It was collectivism. It was socialism. It wasn’t working. That first winter had taken a lot of lives. The manpower was greatly reduced. Something different had to happen.

William Bradford, the governor of the Pilgrim community, saw that the Mayflower Compact was not working. Giving everybody a single share of stock in the common store, in the common bank was not working. It was as costly and destructive to the Pilgrims as it is and has been to anybody who has ever tried it.

So Bradford decided to scrub it. He threw it out and took bold action. He assigned a plot of land to each family. Every family was given a plot of land. They could work it, manage it however they wanted to. If they just wanted to sit on it, get fat, dumb, happy, and lazy, they could. If they wanted to develop it, if they wanted to grow corn, whatever on it, they could. If they wanted to build on it, they could do that. If they wanted to turn it into a quasi-business, they could do whatever they wanted to do with it.

He turned loose the power of the capitalist marketplace. Long before Karl Marx was even born the Pilgrims discovered and experimented with what could only be described as socialism, and they found that it didn’t work. It wasn’t called that then. But that’s exactly what it was. Everybody was given an equal share. You know what happened? Nobody did anything. There was no incentive. Nothing worked. Nothing happened.

After putting everybody in a common store, the Mayflower Compact, because they wanted to be fair. They wanted everybody to have one common share of stock in everything that happened that the Pilgrims produced — and it bombed. It didn’t work.

What Bradford and his community found was that the most creative and industrious people had no incentive to work any harder than anyone else, unless they could utilize the power of personal motivation! But while most of the rest of the world has been experimenting with socialism for well over a hundred years — trying to refine it, perfect it, and re-invent it — the Pilgrims decided early on to scrap it permanently.

There was no prosperity; there was no creativity because there was no incentive. Here’s what Bradford wrote about the failure: For this community was found to breed much confusion and discontent. They were not happy. Quote: “This community was found to breed much confusion and discontent and retard much employment that would have been to their benefit and comfort.” In other words, nobody worked. The way they set it up, killed and discouraged work. There was no need.

The young men that were most able and fit for labor and service sat around and did nothing. They thought, “why should we spend our time and strength to work for other men’s wives and children without being paid for it?” Why should they do that? So, they didn’t. It was thought an injustice. Why should you work for other people when you can’t work for yourself? What’s the point?

The Pilgrims found that people could not be expected to do their best work without incentive. So, what did Bradford’s community try next? They unharnessed the power of good old free enterprise by invoking capitalism, a free marketplace, and the principle of private property, all the way back in the 1600s. It was incredible. Every family was assigned its own plot of land, and they could do with it whatever they wanted to do.

This was successful because it made all hands industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been. So when profit was introduced, when the opportunity to prosper was introduced, it went gangbusters.

Next they set up trading posts and exchanged goods with the Indians after they had enjoyed this prosperity. It was not the Indians that brought them to prosperity. It’s not said to insult anybody. The Indians assisted in their arrival undeniably. But what led to prosperity for these original settlers was the common store failed. Socialism didn’t work.

It’s when they introduced what turns out to be capitalism. They didn’t have the name for it, but when they turned loose individual incentive — keep what you produce, sell what you don’t need — it went crazy. This is not something they were taught by anybody by self-experience.

It was their own industriousness that let them set up trading posts and exchanged goods with the Indians. They sold stuff to them, and those profits allowed them to pay off their debts to the merchants, their sponsors in London and in Holland, and you know what?

The word spread throughout the Old World of this massive amount of prosperity that was there for the taking in the New World. And guess what happened? The New World was flooded with new arrivals. The success and prosperity of the Plymouth settlement attracted more Europeans and began what came to be known as the Great Puritan Migration.

And all it took was prosperity and the word spreading across the Atlantic Ocean of how there was prosperity and it was there for the taking. All you had to do was get there and give it a shot. The lesson is — The True Story of Thanksgiving is — that William Bradford and his Pilgrim community were thanking God for the blessings on their community after the first miserable winter of a documented failure brought on by their attempt at fairness and equality, which was socialism.
It didn’t work.

The Native Americans, the indigenous people, the Indians, or whatever you want to call them were of considerable assistance, and they were friendly when the Pilgrims arrived. But they had little, if anything, to do with the prosperity that occurred. Indians assisted, naturally. They taught them how to fish and this kind of thing that they didn’t know how to do, and that led them to be productive, undeniably so. But it was the Pilgrim community itself which experienced this massive prosperity.
The word of which spread all the way back to the Old World, Europe across the Atlantic Ocean.

During the winter of 1620, only 44 out of the original 102 Pilgrims survived, including their first elected governor of the colony, John Carver. It was an Indian named Squanto came to their rescue. He was no ordinary native. Early settlers in 1610 had captured him and sold him into slavery. A group of Catholic friars freed him and brought him to England, where he learned to speak English. In 1618, serving as an interpreter on an English ship, he was brought back to the New World. It was Squanto — who is a famous Native American in his own right in the Pilgrim story, who taught the Pilgrims how to plant and fish, how to skin beavers. It was Squanto who brokered a peace treaty between the Pilgrims and other Indian tribes.

One of the most important legacies of early settlers is that they experimented with socialism in the 1620s, and it didn’t work. Private property rights and personal responsibility, two pillars of a free market economy, saved the Plymouth colony from extinction and laid the economic foundation for a free and prosperous nation that we all enjoy today.

New, Vital Information

11/12/2021

Recently I was sent a link to a rather long, but so informative article written by an engineer from Australia (hence, a few spelling differences). At first I was daunted, because it seemed so long. I guess I am like a lot of us, if it isn't a quick 3-minute video then it is too much work!

But at the urging of my sister, I've now added it to the website, with a few of this Aussie Engineer's comments. He is credible, thorough in his research and honest with his findings. He poses questions that we all should consider. Go here to find what I wrote about him and the link to his full article. Even if you have to take it a few bites at a time, I urge you to put your reading glasses on (ha! a senior joke) and really absorb what he is saying.

It's truly a "shot heard 'round the world!"

Blessings and appreciation to you all!

Battle Hymn of the Republic

11/11/2021

In tribute to all our Veterans--living and dead!

“Battle Hymn of the Republic”

Originally a camp-meeting hymn "Oh brothers, will you meet us on Canaan's happy shore?" it evolved into John Brown's Body. Then in 1861 Julia Ward Howe wife of a government official, wrote a poem for Atlantic Monthly for five dollars. The magazine called it, Battle Hymn of the Republic. The music may be by William Steffe

Mine eyes have seen the glory
Of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage
Where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning
Of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.

Chorus
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

I have seen Him in the watchfires
Of a hundred circling camps
They have builded Him an altar
In the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence
By the dim and flaring lamps;
His day is marching on.

Chorus
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

He has sounded forth the trumpet
That shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men
Before His judgement seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him;
Be jubilant, my feet;
Our God is marching on.

Chorus
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

In the beauty of the lilies
Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom
That transfigures you and me;
As He died to make men holy,
Let us die to make men free;
While God is marching on.

Chorus
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

Our Republic for which it stands, One Nation, under God, indivisble with Liberty and Justice for all! Amen!

What Makes America Great?

11/8/2021

What makes America great?

In a world of political instability, the United States of America has emerged having one of the world’s oldest constituted governments. In short, America is the greatest nation on earth because of its brilliant Constitution, drafted through the wisdom and foresight of America’s Founding Fathers, who alone realized the proper sequence of authority in government.

What Is the Proper Sequence of Authority?

America is the greatest nation on earth because its founders understood the proper sequence of authority. The United States of America is the only modern nation founded by men who believed that God belonged above them, that the individual is the sovereign form of government on earth, and that man-made government belonged beneath them.

GOD
Endows man with Certain Inalienable Rights

WE THE PEOPLE
Look to God for guidance
Establish the guidelines for its government
Retain the right to alter or replace said government

GOVERNMENT
Derives their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed

Time to return to the proper sequence of authority in America today!

What Is A Cult?

11/6/2021

In my early years I was part of an organization that many are calling a "cult." I talk about it some in my new book Memoirs of Awakening (soon to be available).

Here is my personal definition of a cult: Anytime you let someone or group of someones decide what you should believe, how you should live, and who you should associate with or a group who takes the place of your own inner knowing and guidance, you might be in a cult.

You probably won’t find this definition in any dictionary. Using this definition, I have found over time that many groups and/or organizations fill this criteria. It has served me well over the years. I also have come to believe that the cult members are the ones who make it a cult. If you don’t give someone, or something, control over your thoughts, beliefs, and actions then you aren’t participating in a cult.

Cults usually have charismatic leaders with strong personalities and opinions, but they need followers to make it a cult. The followers have cult-thinking. They believe so deeply in the infallibility of the leader that they give up their own will, independence, and free-thinking.

The burden is on each of us to keep ourselves independent and free-thinking.

Unintended Consequences of Elections Today

11/5/2021

No matter what your polital leaning or affiliation, I think we can all agree that we want safe, secure and accurate voting in our country. Whether there has been deliberate fraud, or just careless practices, we need to shore up our voting rules and laws in every state and county.

The adoption of computerized counting has caused many unintended consequences. It is definitely a faster way to count. The proliferation of mail-in ballots has also created unintended consequences. Can we trust the companies that make the software to use in these machines?

Having such strong and rancorous party divisions has unintended consequences.

What are the unintended consequences?

Having such clear and divided parties has caused many to try to win at all costs! Without meaning to, many of us are willing to fudge here and there, so our party candidates come out on top. The unintended consequence of this has allowed foreign countries to invade our private voting systems to tip the scales the way they desire. It goes beyond just party divisions and preferences. It becomes treasonous!

It is easier than ever to use the convenience of mail-in ballots to have allowed for ballot harvesting, double ballots, ghost/phantom ballots, etc. Moving to Colorado in 1993, we found ourselves in a purple state -- a mixture of all parties. But, since then and due primarily to ballot harvesting, the state has turned almost totally blue. An audit and canvassing would go a long way to determining if shady practices are being used. Come on, Colorado voters, let's demand to know for sure our voting is secure and accurate!

I have a personal example. I was driving Rideshare for Uber during the 2016 campaign and election. I routinely picked up dedicated, energetic, mostly-young people who would have me take them to older, established neighborhoods or elder care facilities. They explained that they were providing a service, mostly for seniors or disabled people, where they would help them complete their ballot and then they would drop it in a ballot box for the person.

One fellow went so far as to admit that he earned extra money for school by providing this service. He went on to say that he often had to educate the person on what was on the ballot. He said many elderly didn't realize how important it was to elect the first woman President. He was careful how he framed what he said, but I thought, even then, it was pretty telling.

Unintended consequence of mail-in balloting: people helping others to fill out and submit their ballots and in so doing influence their vote choices.

At that same time, my own mother was in a Care Facility and in her nineties. She was suffering with early dementia. I helped her fill out her ballot. It was difficult, even for me, because she wanted to vote for someone that I wasn't voting for. She didn't understand beyond just the President, all the other items on the ballot. Even when I read information provided by the county explaining what the different Amendments, Propositions, etc. she struggled to understand. I tried hard to faithfully vote her wishes, although I knew it was possible to sway her in her decisions. What about a young person, earning extra cash, and being enthusiastic about their own choices? This is an unintended consequence if there ever was one.

There has been much said by all parties and affiliations about whether a mail-in vote can be manipulated, double counted, not checked for proper ID, etc. Much is available to show the potential hazzards. Do your own research!

We all need to think long and hard about what consequences we want in the elections of the future. Are safe, secure and accurate elections possible today?

It is up to each of us to demand that they are! Do your part, please. We need to make this a priority

Why Liberty Ministries?

11/4/2021

Behold they that earn wages put them in a bag full of holes! (Haggai 1:6)

Inflation. Interest rates. War. Politics. Foreign aid. Red tape. Bureaucracy. Property tax. Social Security. Bankruptcy. Gas shortages. Campaign speeches. Income tax. Crime. Welfare. Government regulations. Local taxes. Easy credit. Overdue bills. Price controls.

These problems of the United States are inter-related. Sometimes we get so close to the trees we can’t see the forest. The purpose of this book is to help you rise up and look at the nation from above. If you can call a momentary halt to your seemingly insoluble daily problems, then you can use this book to rise above those problems and look down on them. Only then will the obvious pattern appear.

All these problems stem from fundamental ignorance of the founding principles of America. America’s freedoms are rapidly being eroded by a collectivist philosophy that denies individual freedom and personal worth, in favor of a socialistic mob psychology which seems to assume that the free enterprise system that built this nation is no longer capable of working. As we see America supporting more and more Communist nations around the world, while growing more socialistic at home, the threat of creeping Communism has turned into more of a 100-yard dash!

This book is not like any of the doomsday diatribe or conspiracy theory, right-wing paperbacks you may have read. We are primarily interested in solutions, not problems. That means workable solutions, not tired old cliches, like “write your Congressman” or “vote Republican” or “get involved in local politics.” We are offering a solution which is guaranteed to turn this nation around, whether you become a direct participant in it or just a spectator. The individuals who take part in the solution described in this book will comprise an elite group of positive thinking patriots. You can either choose to be a part of them or part of the majority.

These programs are not for everyone. History has always been made by the dedicated few, not the masses. There are three types of people. Leaders are those who make things happen comprising about one percent of people. Then there are those who watch things happen, or Watchers. They make up about nineteen percent of the population. The remaining eighty percent are Sleepers that don’t know what’s happening. If just one percent of Americans, the Leaders, use the solutions described in this book, they will provide enough leadership to carry the ninety-nine percent into a new and dynamic period of American history.

This book is a product of the entire staff of a unique, new organization called Liberty Ministries International. It is safe to say that there is no other organization on earth like LMI. If you disagree, at least try to keep an open mind as you read this book. Avoid the “Pigeon-Hole Technique” of assigning us to categories based on your previous reading. We offer a money-back guarantee that the ideas in this book, taken as a whole, are unlike anything you’ve ever read before.

The solutions described herein could very well be America’s last chance to survive long enough to reach the year 2000. The solutions will immediately help you personally and financially. Even if you don’t want to help yourself, give these ideas a chance for your children’s sake and for the future generations of Americans. You owe it to them, if not yourself. The day will come when you will be proud to be associated with LMI and the ideas we introduced to you.

These are exciting times in which we live. We are on the fringe of a tremendous surge of interest, awareness, and involvement. And you can get in on the ground floor.

This book will be short and to the point. You are welcome to do what most people do: skim the book and find out what the bottom line is at the end. But if you do, you will be missing the valuable background material that makes the bottom line make sense. The search for truth is often more valuable on the journey than at the destination.

If you learned that a long-lost relative bequeathed you a valuable treasure, wouldn’t you bother to claim it? What if the directions to the treasure were vague, and you needed to spend many hours hunting for it? I hope you would take the time to hunt for it, for liberty is a treasure worth cherishing. Despite the fact that the treasure map has been with us day and night for two hundred years in the form of the documents you will want to read—The Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, The Bill of Rights, and a collection of important American essays—very few Americans have taken the time necessary to locate and study their timeless and priceless treasure of personal religious and economic freedom!

Liberty is like a valuable jewel. It is not a cheap thrill or a passing shiny pleasure. Many people confuse liberty with license or self-indulgent behavior. However, true liberty is a highly moral and responsible way of life. Most Americans have forgotten how to live as Sovereign Citizens.

This is your nation. It does not belong to the government, unless you define the government as it was originally intended to be: “of the people, by the people, and for the people.” Today, it is more “of the Presidential staff, by the tax collector, and for the Federal Agencies.”

Abraham Lincoln once said, “This country belongs to the people. Whenever they grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending or abolishing it.” We believe the current generation of Americans will amend or abolish the current form of government in favor of one which is more in the image of America’s founding freedoms.

The next generation will be one of the most exciting in American history. The challenges will be as large as they were in the important decades of the 1780s, the 1860s and the 1930s. We believe the American generation of the last quarter of the Twentieth Century is armed to meet those challenges. They are armed with great reserves of character and will-power. They will soon be armed with the truth about America. And most importantly, they will be armed with the spirit and power of the Creator, who alone is to be praised and worshipped for endowing free men and women everywhere with the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

The above is the Introduction to America's First Freedom, written in 1980. You can download the entire finished book now from www.libertyministries2021.com. As you begin to read it, prepare for your life to be permanently changed for the better. God bless you in your reading! (Original author: Gary Alexander)
