About the time our original thirteen
states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a
Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to
say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier:
"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as
a permanent form of government." "A democracy will continue to exist
up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves
generous gifts from the public treasury."
"From that moment
on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most
benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every
democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is
always followed by a dictatorship."
"The average age
of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history,
has been about 200 years" "During those 200 years, those nations
always
progressed through the following sequence:
1. From bondage to
spiritual faith; 2. From spiritual faith to great courage; 3. From courage to liberty; 4. From liberty to abundance; 5. From abundance to complacency; 6. From complacency to apathy; 7. From apathy to dependence; 8. From dependence back into bondage"
Professor Joseph
Olson of Hemline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points
out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential election:
Number of States
won by: Gore: 19 Bush: 29
Square miles of
land won by: Gore: 580,000 Bush: 2,427,000
Population of
counties won by: Gore: 127 million Bush: 143 million
Murder rate per
100,000 residents in counties won by: Gore: 13.2 Bush: 2.1

“We
cannot expect the American people to jump from Capitalism to
Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving
them small doses of Socialism until they wake up one day to
find they have Communism.” —Nikita Kruschev

shows what God is restoring in these end-times
Professor Olson
adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the
land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country. Gore's
territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned
tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."
Olson believes the
United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy"
phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty
percent of the nation's population already having reached the
"governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress grants
amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called
illegal and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer
than five years.

Tom Horn
Found The Lost Symbol and
Reveals the Final Mystery of the Great Seal
I anticipate that we are
about to see the REAL church rise up with reformation,
restoration and Holy Spirit power not seen since the first
century,
And simultaneously we
will see the Antichrist Masonic Order come forth with power
and evil and destruction not seen since the time of Noah.
In short … we are in the
later last days immediately preceding the tribulation and the
Second Coming of Yeshua. Prepare, but not in fear, but in the
peace only the Holy Spirit can give. Let us be the Overcomers,
the Bride YHWH has called us to be in these last days.

Symbol (what Dan Brown was looking for and did not

upon the discovery of a lifetime, with a countdown
toward the year 2012 that is unlike anything you have

WHY WE ARE NOT TAX EXEMPT
We
have been brainwashed, and
have consciously or unconsciously
accepted the world's definition of Church. The government
gives their tax-deductible status to us because they want us to agree that the Church is
only a humanly defined institution serving human need. That
mindset is an absolutely perverse definition
of what the Church is. Serving human need is incidental. The Church's whole purpose
is to serve divine need and to glorify
God, and there is no other agency given in the earth whereby that glory is to be
obtained other than through the Church:
To Him be the glory in the church and in Christ
Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen (Eph. 3:21).
