For Politicians who lie to we the people-Talking Heads – Burning Down the House (Official Video)

Standard

The first phrase in this song from The talking heads says WATCH OUT YOU MIGHT GET WHAT YOU’RE AFTER.

Another appropriate line in this song says HOLD TIGHT OR IN FOR NASTY WEATHER.

Another appropriate line is TIME FOR JUMPING OVERBOARD. That is not to be taken in a suicidal sense but in a revolutionary sense.

I saw an image of Mike Johnson on mainstream news and thought of this group. Politicians who don’t have moral standards who are not governed by the moral law of God or the Constitution are disgusting. They are shameful. They need to be removed from office.

As greatly taught in the Westminster confession of faith, chapter 23, I don’t say government agents need to be Christians. So I’m not calling for the removal of politicians that are not Christian. But I am saying, in sync with the Constitution, that there are grounds and precedent for removing corrupt politicians and government agents in the judiciary and the executive branches. There’s so much deception and lying going on and dishonesty and unconstitutional actions in the government today that it is an abomination. …So much so that we can truly say politicians are burning down the House. The name of this band talking heads is what came to my mind when I thought about politicians that are excellent speakers, smooth talkers…but very deceptive and corrupt.

The Bible says if the blind lead the blind both shall fall into the ditch

Here is just one example of what I’m talking about regarding these disgusting talking heads.

WOW! WOW! WOW! UNBELIEVABLE!!!-Hegseth impeachment update: the House canceled itself rather than vote.

The importance of the doctrine of church government can be seen from this video. Presbyterian Church government considers all overseers having an equal vote. Whereas the government they’re talking about in this video is more like Roman Catholicism where the pope stands at the top and his decree is final. The Presbyterian model is based off of scriptures like the one that says there is wisdom in a multitude of counselors. Jesus is the head of the church not the Pope. There’s more to say on this subject but for brevity’s sake I’ll leave it at that for now.

This video has much to say on the subject of church security or as some call it safety. The host of this video is communicating much the same message I was putting down in a paper yesterday. The way the American church is right now in many different congregations and denominations is that they think they are protecting the church by playing God. They play God when they cross the line to violate Liberty my trampling on privacy… But of course for safety sake. That’s where the quote from Benjamin Franklin stands out. He said that those who would sacrifice Liberty for a little temporary safety deserve neither.

The bottom line is God defines difference between private and public sins. And God goes so far as to say that if there’s only one witness he commands the witness not to rise up against the person who has broken the law. Simple logic tells us that cameras are not sinful but if you put cameras in everyone’s bedroom to monitor them that is obviously wrong. The point here is that there’s a line where cameras need to abide by. Cameras can be used for God or they can be used against God. How would you feel if you joined a church where you’re were assigned a monitor (a person) who accompanied you everywhere you went including your bedroom and the bathroom? How would you feel about a job that required the same? Even in the bathroom? The point here is is that it’s common sense that there is such a thing as privacy. And God is the one who made privacy.

This is a very important subject because busy bodies are a plague to the American Church. Gossip and slander is rampant in our day of Intel. It’s creating divisions in the church. It’s turning people away from the church.

Security at Church hypocrisy-Mass surveillance in Josh Howerton’s megachurch? @glennbeck @LakepointeC…

The Reverend James Caldwell was a famous minister during the American war for independence. His sermons taught liberty and God’s opposition to tyranny. The British hated him and tried to kill them. So for his own protection, he would actually take loaded pistols with him into the pulpit and lay them beside his Bible as he preached. (Tim Barton)

For those who are open-minded I will share my opinion on church security.

Years ago I went to the Calvary chapel Church in CA. One day I went in with a backpack full of books. The church security required of me to search my backpack. No doubt if I wouldn’t have consented I would not have been granted admittance. I had been to this church several times prior. I asked the security if they searched women’s purses. He claimed that they did, while emphasizing the size of the purse, but I strongly don’t think they check all ladies purses. Furthermore it’s easy to conceal a handgun. On top of that, any building that is open to the public, even though it be private property, does not give the owners the right to deprive people of their inalienable rights. Many if not most Americans agree with that statement, particularly people like Susan Hupp. If a private business, open to the public, can deprive someone of their second amendment rights, then those same private businesses are not bound to observe laws that require them to make their business accessible to the handicapped. Nor should any law forbid a business to refuse service to black people. Nor should a bakery be permitted to refuse baking a wedding cake for to a gay couple. I could go on with numerous laws respecting private establishments open to the public.

The Reverend James Caldwell knew how to take care of church security.

Here in Greenville when you go to some Churches it’s more like going through the TSA at the airport. Whereas if they followed the example of Reverend James Caldwell they would be in the sanctuary listening to God speak through his minister, instead of being distracted with unnecessary so-called security concerns.

Think about it… Imagine a congregation of say 300 people, and some of that local congregation make use of their second amendment right. What kind of murderous shooter is going to go into that congregation knowing that many of the members make use of their second amendment rights? I would call that person a lunatic.

The report in the video above speaks to the hypocrisy of Josh Howerton’s Church when it comes to mass surveillance. People who trust in God do not act like they are God. You simply carry a weapon with you in case there is a troublemaker with a gun. That’s all you have to do. You let God do his part and let God be God.

Psalm 127:1 KJV
Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

Often it seems when I go to some of these churches here in Greenville and see the guys with the swirly cord thingy going up to their ear, rather than receiving welcoming body language and facial expression, you rather receive looks that are given to a potential threat …even though you’ve been there a number of times. And even if the look and body language and even the welcoming words are positive, there still is a sense of being received the same way the TSA receives people at the airport or in any other government building. I don’t believe that’s the way the church should be fishing for and making disciples and converts. I think those security guards should be in church listening to God speak and worshiping him. Public worship has a starting time and an ending time. Many churches don’t observe that, but that’s the way it should be. And we should be in there during that time …the whole time. If you’re going to court and you’re not there before the judge gets in there, you could be held in contempt of court. Why is it that with God, we think we can give him less?

Like the host of this video I’m not saying that technology cannot be used in church security or private businesses or private residences.. But I will say that I feel much more at home at my home when there’s no cameras that hackers can hack into and watch me. And also I feel much more at home and welcomed in a church that is not loaded with security cameras and even more so with a church that has no security cameras. I’m just telling you how I personally feel. And I think that church overseers that care about how people think about their local congregation take that into consideration. At the same time I recognize the right of individuals who want security cameras on their home. If everybody was the same as me, the world would be boring LOL. I have a dash cam. So I recognize the value of technology and I use it… but I use it sparingly.

I remember reading the story about the French Huguenots who would place sentries on the perimeter of their meeting place, which would be in the wilderness somewhere. They had to do this because they were openly and publicly being persecuted by tyrants. We don’t live in a climate like that right now, here in North America. So there is a much less need for security then they had …and they didn’t even have technology like we have today. Nor were their weapons as deadly as the weapons we have today.

A good example of the overkill church security presently in the North American Church, is an incident that occurred with me at a local Christian University. Universities open to the public are good places to go and study. They’re like public universities. Many homeless go to public universities here at Greenville when it is cold or too hot outside. The head of security at this Christian University, one day threw me off the campus …and for no good reason. The man was hostile and unjust. His attitude was on a high horse. He conducted himself in a manner very unbecoming of a Christian University. I endeavored to deal with his tyranny by speaking with those in charge at this University. Crickets received my complaint. I dropped the issue based on 1st Corinthians chapter 6 and will let God deal with it in his time. In the transaction between me and the head of this University security he had called the police. The head of security on the advice of the police officer asked me if I was armed. I responded by saying that’s for me to know and you to find out. I asked the head of security the name of the police officer. According to the head of security the police officer denied that information which he is required to provide. There was no cause for calling the police, because as soon as this tyrannical head of security demanded me to leave the premises, I started packing up. He asked me to provide ID and when I refused to provide ID that’s when he required me to leave the premises. So I started packing up. Obviously I was shocked by this act of tyranny. They had no reason to deal with me this way and they gave no reason. I believe the surveillance culture that we live in, black balls people unjustly and that black balling passes on down the grapevine into certain parts of the church and  in certain parts of the government. Way back in Samuel Rutherford’s day he was called to appear before the king for his writing of Lex Rex. The point is, that when you follow what is right and good and true, flack is going to appear around you, and it will come from within and without the church. But the main reason I bring up this story, is to show how so-called security is infecting the church detrimentally. You’ll notice that I didn’t give any specifics because of the principal and 1st Corinthians chapter 6.

There are, in my estimation, corrupt elements in the state and in the church which have made A Confederacy against Christ. This Confederacy is dragging down the North American Church. This Confederacy uses Intel in a way that is contrary to the moral law of God …by invading privacy… By denying the accused the opportunity to face his accusers and to give an answer to those accusations. This Confederacy portends to be judge, jury, and executioner… and those that are targeted by them, are their enemies …but friends of Christ…or would be friends of Christ. This Confederacy precludes the church from her duty to recover wandering sheep or what are supposedly wandering sheep…simply by cold shouldering and putting out those that Christ would have recovered… like the man in 1st Corinthians chapter 5 and 2 Corinthians chapter 2. It looks very much like the work of the Antichrist… Who sits in the temple of God as if he is God (2 Tim 2:4)
