Blood Money

Blood Money

By Daniel McGavin Hansen

What is more valuable... a brick of gold or a canteen of water? Well, it depends on supply and demand. A brick of gold could even have a negative value as a burdensome weight in the backpack of a weary and thirsty traveler in the middle of a scorching desert.

All value is relative to SUPPLY AND DEMAND. Article I section 8 of the Constitution specifies that Congress shall have the power... to coin Money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin... How is value regulated? By controlling the supply. Regarding the power of Congress to create MONEY no restrictions are mentioned or specified such as using gold or silver or paper. Congress is: “To provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the securities and coin of the United States.” Congress could not regulate the quantity and hence the value of money if it could not stop counterfeiting

The ultimate authority on the value of money is the market place. It is like a giant auction measuring and determining the value of the medium of exchange in relation to the goods available.

Congress has the responsibility to issue sufficient currency, to create a convenient and stable medium of exchange that will be uniform throughout the Union in order to facilitate the transfers of commerce, which promote the General Welfare.

If, for example, the market is 100 Apples and Congress wants to establish and maintain a value of one dollar per Apple, Congress must create and distribute $100.00 to the market. The market is always fluctuating, therefore, if we have a bumper crop and produce 200 Apples in a growing and healthy economy, Congress must issue one hundred more dollars into circulation in order to maintain the relative value of $1.00 per apple. If the money supply remained at $100.00 per 200 Apples each dollar would buy and hence be worth 2 apples. That would be deflation.

If in the following season the economy produced only 150 Apples, Congress would have to withdraw from circulation via taxation $50.00 in order to retain the Dollar per Apple ratio and hence fulfill the Constitutional mandate to regulate the value thereof. If Congress failed to withdraw $50 inflation would be the rule, as each apple would now cost $1.334.

Money

What is money? Money is anything that serves as a medium of exchange. If there is no money direct barter is mandated. A cow can serve as money... indeed the word pecuniary (of or involving money) is derived from the Latin word “pecus” meaning cow. Cow money has many disadvantages including instability, maintenance, exchange problems and perishability. Never mind that it would be the ultimate in “stinking money.”

Money Orders, travelers checks, personal checks, IOUs, grocery coupons, food stamps, green or blue stamps, gold, silver, copper or base metal coins all serve as mediums of exchange.

As a young college student I managed a flophouse in Reno, Nevada and often collected rent in casino tokens from Harold’s Club and various other gambling establishments. I could exchange the tokens for a haircut, pay a cab fare, buy groceries or even deposit the tokens at the bank as I would a personal or company check... because, the Casino tokens were redeemable in fair exchange or finally converted to dollars and cents or legal tender. Legal tender provides stability and uniformity to all subspecies of currency. The Feds moved in to stop this free exchange of goods and services, I believe, because it exposed the nature of the Federal Reserve’s monopolistic money making power. Now, casinos cannot allow gaming tokens to be even exchanged within the confines of their own establishment for meals at their restaurants or rooms in their hotel.

The value of money cannot be determined by the measure of grams in a silver coin or the measure of ounces in gold or even the denomination printed on paper notes. Grams, ounces and numbers help identify the medium of exchange but the value of money is only determined by its relationship to the market i.e. the money supply in relation to the Gross National Product.

As money, a cow has numerous disadvantages but at least it’s almost impossible to counterfeit. Gold like cows is harder to counterfeit, but it also has many disadvantages. Gold is a commodity that changes constantly in value with constant changes in supply and demand. In an expanding economy gold based currency has often suffered from under supply. Gold can also be cumbersome and difficult to exchange...for that reason gold is generally converted to paper bills and Fractional Reserve banking in which only a small amount of actual gold was reserved to back the paper currency.

Hyrum J. Amundsen Jr. author of the book How to Cure Inflation wrote:

Since bankers pretty much had a corner on the gold they were in a position to control the economics of the different nations either up or down, i.e., if the gold was to be the reserve of the money in circulation. To induce a money panic and therefore, a depression as they did in 1929-33, all they had to do was to remove a substantial amount of gold which was backing the money and there would be required a proportionate reduction of the money supply in order to comply with the fractional reserve requirement. In this manner the international bankers exercised control of the government instead of the government exercising control of the bankers.

When Cortez and other Europeans plundered America and shipped the gold booty back to Europe... inflation resulted because the supply of gold currency increased in relation to goods and services.

In the 1860’s when the mines of Virginia City, Nevada were in peak operation the gold and silver backed currencies of Europe were destabilized because of the huge and rapid increase in the supply of these metals internationally.

Franklin Roosevelt also inflated the money supply by manipulating the value of gold and decreasing the value of the dollar. Before Fraudlin Deficit Russiavelt instituted his money manipulations $20.00 would purchase an ounce of gold... after F.D.R. it required $35.00 to buy an ounce of gold. Fraudlin went so far as to deprive sovereign citizens the right to own gold.

Gold is not God. It is subject to manipulation and fluctuations and will not buy redemption from dereliction of duty, fraud, conspiracy or stupidity. Scripture reminds us, “When the wicked rule, the people mourn.” The cost of Liberty is eternal vigilance. Congress has the power to create and regulate the value of money and Sovereign Citizens have the duty to see that wise and honest men are elected to Congress.

When tyrants are in control it is our Christian duty to throw the Rascals out as did our Founding Fathers.

Famous Quotes on Money

The Bible Condemns Usury Banking:

Deuteronomy 23:19 Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury.

Leviticus 25:36-37 Take thou no usury of him, or increase; but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee. Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.

When the Babylonian civilization collapsed, three percent of the people owned all the wealth. When old Persia went down to destruction two percent of the people owned all the wealth. When ancient Greece went down to ruin one-half of one percent of the people owned all the wealth. When the Roman empire fell by the wayside, two thousand people owned the wealth of the civilized world...It is said at this time less than two percent (2%) of the people control ninety percent of the wealth of America. — Lincoln Money Martyred

Aristotle on Usury in 350 B.C. wrote:

The most hated sort of money-making, and with the greatest reason, is usury, which makes a gain out of money itself and not from the natural use of it-for money was intended merely for exchange, not for increase at interest. And this term interest, which implies the birth of money from money, is applied to the breeding of money, because the offspring resembles the parent. Wherefore of all modes of money-making, this is the most unnatural. — The Church and Usury, by Rev. P. Cleary

Saint Thomas Aquinas:

He who takes usury for a loan of money acts unjustly for he sells what does not exist. It is wrong in itself to take a price (usury) for the use of money lent, and as in the case of other offences against justice, one is bound to make restitution of his unjustly acquired money. — The Church and Usury, by Rev. P. Cleary

Benjamin Franklin:

While visiting England in 1763, Benjamin Franklin was asked how he accounted for the prosperous condition of the Colonies. His reply was:

That is simple. It is only because in the Colonies we issue our own money. It is called “Colonial Scrip” — and we issue it in the proper proportion to the demands of trade and industry.

Soon that information was brought to the Rothschild’s bank which coerced the English Parliament to pass a Bill providing that no Colony could issue its own money. Franklin said:

Within one year from that date the streets of the Colonies were filled with the unemployed.

Franklin later said that this was the original cause of the Revolutionary War. In his own language:

The Colonies would gladly have borne the little tax on tea and other matters had it not been that England took away from the Colonies their money, which created unemployment and dissatisfaction. — Lightning Over The Treasury Building, by J.R. Elsom

John Adams 1787:

All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from defects in their Constitution or Confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from the downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and circulation. — Money - Questions & Answers, by C. Coughlin

In 1790 Mayer Amschel Rothschild said:

Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its laws.

Thomas Jefferson said:

I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a money aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power (of money) should be taken from the banks, and restored to the people to whom it belongs. — Lincoln Money Martyred

If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.

I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of the moneyed corporations, which dare already to challenge our Government to trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws of our country. — Money - Questions & Answers, by C. Couglin

Lord Acton, Lord Chief Justice of England in 1875 stated:

The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the People vs. the Banks. — I Want The Earth—Plus 5 Percent

President Andrew Jackson to the bankers who approached him in the drawing room of the White House:

Gentlemen, I have had men watching you for a long time and I am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the bank and annul its charter I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but that is your sin! Should I let you go on you will ruin fifty thousand families, and that would be my sin! You are a den of vipers and thieves. I have determined to rout you out, and by the Eternal God, I will rout you out! — Money - Questions & Answers by C. Coughlin

Abraham Lincoln:

The money power preys upon the nation in times of peace and conspires against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw light upon its crimes. — Famous Quotations on Money, by Sheldon Emry

Editorial in the London Times after “Lincoln Greenbacks” were issued:

If this mischievous financial policy, which has its origin in the North American Republic, shall become endurated down to a fixture, then that Government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off its debts and be without debt. It will have all the money necessary to carry on its commerce. It will become prosperous without precedent in the history of the world. The brains and the wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe.

The Hazard Circular - published by London bankers, 1863:

The great debt that the Capitalists will see to it is made out of the war must be used to control the value of money. To accomplish this government bonds must be used as a banking basis. We are now waiting for the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States to make that recommendation.

It will not do to allow greenbacks, as they are called, to circulate as money for any length of time as we cannot control them. But we can control the bonds and through them the banking issues.

Salmon P. Chase in referring to the National Bank Act of 1862 said:

My agency in promoting the passage of the National Bank Act was the greatest financial mistake of my life. It has built up a monopoly, which affects every interest in the country. It should be repealed, but before that can be accomplished, the people will be arrayed on one side and the banks on the other, in a contest such as we have never before seen in this country. — Famous Quotations on Money, by Sheldon Emry

Letter to: Messieurs. Iklheimer, Morton and Vandergould, No. 3 Wall St., New York, U.S.A.:

Dear Sirs: A Mr. John Sherman has written us from a town in Ohio, U.S.A., as to the profits that may be made in the National Banking business under a recent act of your Congress (National Bank Act of 1863), a copy of which act accompanied his letter. Apparently this act has been drawn upon the plan formulated here last summer by the British Bankers Association and by that Association recommended to our American friends as one that if enacted into law, would prove highly profitable to the banking fraternity throughout the world.

Mr. Sherman declares that there has never before been such an opportunity for capitalists to accumulate money, as that presented by this act and that the old plan, of State Banks is so unpopular, that the new scheme will, by contrast, be most favorably regarded, notwithstanding the fact that it gives the National Banks an almost absolute control of the National finance. ’The few who can understand the system,’ he says ’will either be so interested in its profits, or so dependent on its favors, that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantages that capital derives from the system, will bear its burdens without complaint and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical (adverse) to their interests.’ Please advise us fully as to this matter and also state whether or not you will be of assistance to us, if we conclude to establish a National Bank in the City of New York... Awaiting your reply, we are.

Your respectful servants.
Rothschild Brothers.
London, June 25, 1863

— Lightning Over The Treasury Building, J.R. Elsom

Henry Ford said:

The function of money is not to make money but to move goods. Money is only one part of our transportation system. It moves goods from man to man. A dollar bill is like a postage stamp: it is no good unless it will move commodities between persons. If a postage stamp will not carry a letter, or money will not move goods, it is just the same as an engine that will not run. Someone will have to get out and fix it. — Money - Questions & Answers, by C. Coughlin

Hon. Charles A. Lindbergh, Sr., on December 23, 1913 stated:

This Federal Reserve Act establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President (Wilson) signs this bill the invisible government of the Monetary Power will be legalized. — Famous Quotations on Money, by Sheldon Emry

Concerning government bonds issued for a construction project Thomas Edison said:

People who will not turn a shovel full of dirt on the project, nor contribute a pound of material, will collect more money from the United States than will the people who supply all the material and do all the work. This is the terrible thing about interest.

In all great bond issues the interest is always greater than the principal. All the great public works cost more than twice as much on that account. Under the present system of doing business we simply add from 120% to 150% to the stated cost.

But here is the point: If our nation can issue a dollar bond, it is capable of issuing a dollar bill. The element that makes the bond good makes the bill good also. The difference between the bond and the bill is that the bond lets the money broker collect twice the amount of the bond and an additional 20%. Whereas the currency, the honest sort provided by the Constitution, pays nobody but those who contribute in some useful way. It is absurd to say our country can issue bonds and cannot issue currency. Both are promises to pay but one fattens the usurer and the other helps the people.

If the currency issued by the people were no good, then the bonds would be no good either. It is a terrible situation when the Government, to insure the National wealth, must go in debt and submit to ruinous interest charges at the hands of men who control the fictitious value of gold. Interest is the invention of Satan. — Lightning Over The Treasury Building, by J.R. Elsom

Sir Josiah Stamp, President of the Bank of England, in an informal talk to 150 University of Texas students in the 1920’s said:

Banking was conceived in iniquity and born in sin...Bankers own the world. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money...and with the flick of a pen, they will create enough money to buy it back again...Take this great power away from bankers, and all great fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, because this would then be a better and happier world to live in...But if you want to continue to be the slaves of bankers, and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create (your) money. — “Bankonomics” in One Easy Lesson, by Peter Cook

In 1933 Congressman Louis T. McFadden wrote:

Every effort has been made by the Federal Reserve Board (FED) to conceal its powers, but the truth is-the FED has usurped the government. It controls everything here (in Congress) and it controls all our foreign relations. It makes and breaks governments at will. — Billions for the Bankers, by Sheldon Emry

Robert Hemphill, for 8 years credit manager of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta said:

If all bank loans were paid, no one would have a bank deposit, and there would not be a dollar of currency in circulation. This is a staggering thought. We are completely dependent on the commercial banks. Someone has to borrow every dollar we have in circulation, cash or credit. If the banks create ample synthetic money, we are prosperous; if not, we starve. We are absolutely without a permanent monetary system. When one gets a complete grasp upon the picture, the tragic absurdity of our hopeless position is almost incredible-but there it is. It (the banking problem) is the most important subject intelligent persons can investigate and reflect upon. It is so important that our present civilization may collapse unless it is widely understood and the defects remedied very soon. — Famous Quotations on Money, by Sheldon Emry

Emanuel Josephson stated in the Rockefeller Internationalist:

They [the Rockefellers] control most of the important newspapers, magazines, and book publishing houses in the country, including the Curtis Publications, the Hearst Publications, Time, the New York Times, the Associated Press and many others. — The Elements of Economics, by J.L. Carmichael

John Moody wrote:

Seven men on Wall Street now control a great share of the fundamental industry and resources of the United States. Three of the seven men, J.P. Morgan, James J. Hill, George F. Baker, head of the First National Bank of New York belong to the so-called Morgan group; four of them, John D. and William Rockefeller, James Stillman, head of the National City Bank, and Jacob H. Schiff on the private banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb Company, to the so-called Standard Oil City Bank group...the central machine of capital extends its control over the United States...The process is not only economically logical; it is now practically automatic. — Secrets of the Federal Reserve, by Eustace Mullins

The Banker’s Manifest, 1934:

Capital must protect itself in every way, through combination and through legislation. Debts must be collected and loans and mortgages foreclosed as soon as possible. When through a process of law the common people have lost their homes, they will be more tractable and more easily governed by the strong arm of the law, applied by the central power of wealth, under control of leading financiers. People without homes will not quarrel with their leaders. This is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of capital to govern the world. By dividing the people we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance to us except as teachers of the common herd...

Nobel Prize Winner Frederick Soddy:

The whole profit of the issuance of money has provided the capital of the great banking business as it exists today. Starting with nothing whatever of their own, they have got the whole world into their debt irredeemably, by a trick.

This money comes into existence every time the banks “lend” and disappears every time the debt is repaid to them. So that if industry tries to repay, the money of the nation disappears. This is what makes prosperity so “dangerous” as it destroys money just when it is most needed, and precipitates a slump.

There is nothing left now for us but to ever get deeper and deeper into debt to the banking system in order to provide the increasing amounts of money the nation requires for its expansion and growth.

An honest money system is the only alternative. — Lightning Over The Treasury Building, by J.R. Elsom

Andrae Nordskog:

In February, 1850, our State of California issued bonds in the sum of $943.40 to pay for a granite slab to be placed at the 120 foot level inside of Washington’s Monument on the grounds of our National Capitol.

Our Golden State issued short term bonds bearing interest at the rate of 36% annually. In 1873 new bonds, in the amount of $2,277,500.00 were issued to retire the original bonds. Since that time the State has paid over $10,000,000 in interest but not one cent on the principal. — We Bankers, by Andrae Nordskog

John R. Elsom, 1941:

Since the people have either lost the heart to borrow from the Banks, or their collateral has already been taken over by the Banks - the latter being primarily the case - and therefore can no longer borrow, in order to get money into circulation the Government must do the borrowing in lieu of the people. — Lightning Over The Treasury Building, by J.R. Elsom

Summer H. Slichter (Professor Business Economics at Harvard):

The principal way in which dollars are created is by borrowing. This means that the number of dollars in existence at any particular time depends upon the ability and willingness of the banks to lend. The volume of purchasing power fluctuates with the state of men’s minds; the growth of pessimism may suddenly throw millions of men out of work (because of the lack of currency), or the growth of confidence may create thousands of job overnight (because of sufficient currency). — Lightning Over The Treasury Building, by J.R. Elsom

Assassinations

The Committee to Restore the Constitution in their November 1991 BULLETIN reported on Presidential Assassinations. Following are excerpted quotes:

Attempt on President Andrew Jackson

In 1811—Hamilton’s bank charter expired and the international bankers precipitated the war of 1812. By 1816 another privately-owned U.S. bank was started up... When the 1816 charter expired in 1836 — President Andrew Jackson VETOED IT! It was at this time that Jackson made his three famous statements. First, Jackson told Van Buren according to the National Geographic Society: “The Bank is trying to kill me — but I will kill it.” Second he said, “If the American people only understood the rank injustice of our money and banking system — there would be a revolution before morning...”; Third, “You are a den of vipers. I intend to rout you out and by the eternal God — I will rout you out...” ... For his courageous words and action — there was an assassination attempt on President Jackson — but by the grace of God — both pistols, only inches from his chest, misfired!

President Abraham Lincoln

President Lincoln needed money to pay for the Civil War, he asked Congress to pass a law authorizing the printing of full legal tender Treasury notes. Lincoln said at that time: “We gave the people of this Republic the greatest blessing they ever had — their own paper money to pay their own debts...” These Treasury notes were printed with green ink on the back so the people called them “greenbacks” — debt-free and interest free and paid the soldiers, U.S. government employees — and bought supplies for the war... this vexed the international bankers who had wanted Lincoln to borrow the money from them so the American people would owe endless interest on the loan... Lincoln was assassinated after the war by an individual history shows had ties to the secret societies of Europe — John Wilkes Booth. After Lincoln’s assassination the government was induced to revoke the debt-free, interest-free greenbacks.

President James A. Garfield

James A. Garfield was elected the 20th president of the United States... “In 1862 he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives where he served until 1880. Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations, he became expert in fiscal matters, advocating a high protective tariff...”

Shortly before his election to presidency Garfield is reported to have said: “whoever controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce.”

On July 2nd, 1881 after only four months in office, Garfield was shot at the railroad station in Washington D.C. by Charles J. Guiteau “a disappointed office seeker.”

President William McKinley

In 1900 William McKinley was elected by a large majority to a second term... as a champion of protective tariffs... he opposed the renewal of the bank charter... shortly after his re-election the Encyclopedia Britannica tells us: “he was fatally shot on September 6,1901, by Leon Czolgosz, an anarchist” ... another president who happened to oppose international bankers, shot reportedly by a “lone nut”.

President John F. Kennedy

President Kennedy’s Executive Order of June 4, 1963 11.110 called for the issuance of $4,292,893.00 in United States Notes... some of these notes were printed and circulated. After Kennedy’s assassination these “Kennedy Bills” were quickly withdrawn from circulation. (End of Bulletin excerpts.)

Den of Thieves

St. Mark reported (Chap. 11 vs 15 & 17): “...and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers...saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? But ye have made it a den of thieves.”

History will disclose that the most influential man of the Twentieth century is Edward Mandell House. According to his biographer Charles Seymour, Sterling Professor of History, Yale University; House was “The unseen guardian angel ”of the Federal Reserve Act. Writes Seymour...“House disdained fame and achieved it...the circle widened that recognized him a powerful factor in national and international politics, and yet few could answer the simplest question about him...Puzzled but untroubled they accepted him finally as “the President’s advisor.”

This secretive little man was a powerful enemy of the U.S. Constitution and chief architect of the modern Corporate (Fascist) State. Anonymously, House authored “Philip Dru: Administrator” in 1912. The collectivist plot as revealed in Philip Dru has been directing America’s political agenda since then and continues through the Clinton administration’s New World Order fomentation.

So powerful was manipulator E. M. House that President Woodrow Wilson stated, “Mr. House is my second personality. He is my independent self. His thoughts and mine are one...”

Writing in July 1937, Thomas W. Phelps, then Washington Bureau Chief for the Wall Street Journal, wrote the following assessment:

“As Congress puts the finishing touches on the legislative program of the first four years of the Roosevelt Administration, Col. E. M. House, confidant of President Roosevelt emerges as the prophet, if not the real brain trust of the New Deal...”

The secret combinations of conspirator House inflicted revolutionary programs and events upon the unsuspecting American people and upon the world that included the: Federal Reserve System; Sixteenth Amendment; Seventeenth Amendment; America’s involvement in World Wars beginning with WWI and continuing into the Twenty-first century; League of Nations; Council on Foreign Relations; Social Security System; United Nations; New World Order.

The American People know next to nothing about Edward Mandell House and possibly even less about the Federal Reserve Notes that control their daily lives.

Thomas Jefferson stated, “If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, it expects what never was and never will be.” Let us continue our education:

The only way money gets into circulation in the United States is through the creation of debt. The Treasury issues bonds of credit to the private Federal Reserve Bank which then prints the Federal Reserve Notes and lends these debt certificates back to the United States Government at usury interest to be circulated as “money.” If the debt were ever paid off in full, there would be no money in circulation. With debt money, the only way to increase the money supply needed for an expanding economy is to amass ever larger and larger debts. Eventually, the debt bubble must burst.

Mayer Amschel Rothschild of Germany (1743-1812) the father of our present-day International Banking System stated, “Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its laws.”

The “Federal Reserve System” is a perfect example of a private money monopoly.

It is self evident that whoever controls the money of a nation can and does have the power to take over political parties and governments and can manipulate people with propaganda, controlled news, controlled education, staged wars, debt, inflation and/or deflation, unemployment, depressions and even covert or overt revolutions.

Resolution

Proverbs 22 vs 7 reminds us that “The borrower is servant to the lender.” No individual, no nation can be free and in debt. We are a nation of debtors. With unfunded liabilities such as Social Security the Federal Government is over $25,000,000,000,000 in debt. The once most free and richest nation on earth is now like the Prodigal Son, a servant of sin and debt. We have become a nation of tax slaves and have surrendered our Sovereignty for a mess of pottage. We are like the children of Israel under the harsh yoke of bondage to the Pharaoh.

The First Christian Fellowship of Eternal Sovereignty is like a voice crying in the wilderness proclaiming, “Prepare ye the way of the Lord” and with ringing testimony invites all to resound with the message of the LIBERTY BELL to:

Proclaim Liberty throughout all the Land unto all the Inhabitants thereof.

Conscious of our individual and national sins we with contrition and hope remember:

II Chronicles 7:14:

If My people which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Moses, the great Emancipator importuned before Pharaoh to “Let my people go.” We Sovereigns must similarly seek redress of our grievances by seeking Executive, Legislative and Judicial remedy at the State and Federal institutions of government. We must arm ourselves first with the knowledge of the proper role of government and the understanding of money.

Pictured below is a 1963 issue of a United States Note (Not a Federal Reserve Note):

Abraham Lincoln said:

The Government should create, issue, and circulate all the currency and credit needed to satisfy the spending power of the government and the buying power of the consumers. The privilege of creating and issuing of money is not only the supreme prerogative of Government, but it is the Government’s greatest creative opportunity.

By the adoption of these principles, the long-felt want for a uniform medium will be satisfied. The taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest. The financing of all public enterprises, the maintenance of stable government and ordered progress, and the conduct of the Treasury will become matters of practical administration. Money will cease to be master and become the servant of humanity.

President Abraham Lincoln issued $449,338,902 debt-free U.S. Notes into circulation. He clearly understood the importance of debt-free government financing and the imperative need to spend money into circulation rather than to borrow it into circulation.

These “Lincoln Greenbacks” remained in circulation debt-free stimulating the economy and general welfare of we the people for over 100 years. In fact as a young paperboy in the 1950’s I collected many $5.00 greenbacks. These were quite valuable then as one $5.00 bill could be exchanged for one hundred 5-cent candy bars.

These United States Notes were backed by the taxing power of the government, which meant all of the resources of the nation, not just certain commodities, but the entire economy of the nation guaranteed the exchange value of this money.

The Founders in order to establish a more perfect union established the taxing power in the Constitution correcting the inadequacy of the Articles of Confederation. They also established, in this document of separation and balance of powers; in Article I Section 10. “No State shall...coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts;” No such limitation was placed on the Congress which was given unlimited power “To coin Money and regulate the value thereof,...” This creative power given exclusively to Congress was illegally transferred to the privately owned Federal Reserve System which is neither Federal nor does it have any reserves, but is sustained by debt bondage and usury. Sufficient concern manifest by an informed and alarmed citizenry can still provoke a responsive Congress to correct this fraudulent abuse.

Individual States could also provide remedy by exercising their Constitutional power to make gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debt.

A State could simply mandate that all taxes are to be paid in silver and gold coin of private, national or foreign mint. These taxes could then be deposited in State Banks, not in Federal Banks that drain the State of Capital. The State could then issue coin or tender such as gold and silver certificates in payment to State employees and for goods and services rendered to the State. This tender would circulate like gaming chips once did in Nevada; however, they would be backed by the Sovereign State and would be as good as gold. The State Bank would become a reservoir of capital that would enhance local economic growth. Profits derived from the bank would provide the local government with a non-tax source of income further emancipating the local citizenry and providing for the general welfare of the people.

By repairing to God Inspired Law articulated in the Constitution of the United States the Sovereign Citizens can provide remedy to the calamity that is upon us, make money and government our servants as intended by God and emancipate ourselves and our posterity from the clutches of the Money Changers.
