THE PEPSTER
[ A Call to Prayer ] First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. (1 Timothy 2:1-2 NASB)
Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God; and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves. For rulers are not a cause of fear for good behavior, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear of authority? Do what is good and you will have praise from the same; for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath on the one who practices evil. Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of wrath, but also for conscience’ sake. For because of this you also pay taxes, for rulers are servants of God, devoting themselves to this very thing. Render to all what is due them: tax to whom tax is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor. (Romans 13:1-8)
When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, But when a wicked man rules, people groan. (Proverbs 29:2)
Remind them to be subject to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good deed, to malign no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing every consideration for all men. For we also once were foolish ourselves, disobedient, deceived, enslaved to various lusts and pleasures, spending our life in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another. (Titus 3:1-3)
Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether to a king as the one in authority, or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do right. For such is the will of God that by doing right you may silence the ignorance of foolish men.
Vision of the Four Beasts
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel saw a dream and visions in his mind as he lay on his bed; then he wrote the dream down and related the following summary of it. Daniel said, “I was looking in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of heaven were stirring up the great sea. And four great beasts were coming up from the sea, different from one another.
The first was like a lion and had the wings of an eagle. I kept looking until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man; a human mind also was given to it.
And behold, another beast, a second one, resembling a bear. And it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth; and thus they said to it, ‘Arise, devour much meat!’
After this I kept looking, and behold, another one, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird; the beast also had four heads, and dominion was given to it.
After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrifying and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns. While I was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth uttering great boasts.
The Ancient of Days Reigns
“I kept looking
Until thrones were set up,
And the Ancient of Days took His seat;
His vesture was like white snow
And the hair of His head like pure wool.
His throne was blaze with flames,
Its wheels were a burning fire.
“A river of fire was flowing
And coming out from before Him;
Thousands upon thousands were attending Him,
And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him;
The court sat,
And the books were opened.
Then I kept looking because of the sound of the boastful words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the beast was slain, and its body was destroyed and given to the burning fire. As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away, but an extension of life was granted to them for an appointed period of time.
The Son of Man Presented
“I kept looking in the night visions,
And behold, with the clouds of heaven
One like a Son of Man was coming,
And He came up to the Ancient of Days
And was presented before Him.
“And to Him was given dominion,
Glory and a kingdom,
That all the peoples, nations and men of every language
Might serve Him.
His dominion is an everlasting dominion
Which will not pass away;
And His kingdom is one
Which will not be destroyed.
The Vision Interpreted
“As for me, Daniel, my spirit was distressed within me, and the visions in my mind kept alarming me. I approached one of those who were standing by and began asking him the exact meaning of all this. So he told me and made known to me the interpretation of these things: ‘These great beasts, which are four in number, are four kings who will arise from the earth. But the saints of the Highest One will receive the kingdom and possess the kingdom forever, for all ages to come.’
“Then I desired to know the exact meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, exceedingly dreadful, with its teeth of iron and its claws of bronze, and which devoured, crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet, and the meaning of the ten horns that were on its head and the other horn which came up, and before which three of them fell, namely, that horn which had eyes and a mouth uttering great boasts and which was larger in appearance than its associates. I kept looking, and that horn was waging war with the saints and overpowering them until the Ancient of Days came and judgment was passed in favor of the saints of the Highest One, and the time arrived when the saints took possession of the kingdom.
“Thus he said: ‘The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, which will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth and tread it down and crush it. As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise after them, and he will be different from the previous ones and will subdue three kings. He will speak out against the Most High and wear down the saints of the Highest One, and he will intend to make alterations in times and in law; and they will be given into his hand for a time, times, and half a time. But the court will sit for judgment, and his dominion will be taken away, annihilated and destroyed forever. Then the sovereignty, the dominion and the greatness of all the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be given to the people of the saints of the Highest One; His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all the dominions will serve and obey Him.’
“At this point the revelation ended. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts were greatly alarming me and my face grew pale, but I kept the matter [to myself.”
(Daniel 7)
There are TEN FEMA REGIONS in the United States, and they are:
Map of the TEN FEMA Regions:
The United States of America was a nation conceived in the model of the Old Roman Republic, with three branches of government; an Executive (the presidency), a Legislative branch (the Senate and House of Representatives), and a Judiciary (the US Supreme Court). It was founded to be a Constitutional Representative Republic with very limited democracy. Its national Constitution protected the rights of all of its citizens equally under the Rule of Law; therefore there was no mob rule, and the majority never ruled, but the rights of the minorities were equally protected under the Constitution as those of the majority. No nation in the history of man been so founded. It was an experiment.
In creating this type of government, the founders broke with the old oppressive European model of monarchs, oligarchs, and religious dictatorships; therefore it established upon the earth a nation completely and totally and radically different than all of those who came before it. It was a nation conceived in liberty, but it could only work as long as its Rule of Law was respected and observed by its public servants elected to office. In order for this to be, there were two fundamental necessities that had to be passed from generation to generation; a deep and abiding knowledge of the spiritual and moral undergirding of this great republic embedded in its populace, and a deep and abiding love of these in requiring its elected officials hold true to these in public service. Any lapse in any of these would prove fatal to the republic.
For more than a generation, our youth has lost the concept of morality and replaced it with amoral relativism. It has separated the religious and moral duty of public servants to hold true to their oath and replaced it with the belief that all things are negotiable, that even truth can be compromised at the altar of expedient bi-partisanism; that any politician can be bribed for the right money, and that this is how government works.
The moral and religious underpinnings that once girded this great republic have been removed by secular humanist educators working in tangent with the great teachers unions for decades in our public education system, and have churned out of the intellectual assembly line the most uneducated and ill-informed people in Western Civilization. The graduates of our public education system today can barely read and write, much less process information properly, therefore they are rendered easy prey to the mind-control mass media, and politicians of wealth redistribution and so-called social justice.
A populace so conditioned has produced the worst crop of politicians this nation has ever known. Corruption in government runs to the highest levels, and bribery at all levels is the rule of the day. The president lives and rules like a European potentate, not a public servant. He by-passes the congress to sign into law via Executive Order one rule after another, and then uses the arm of the federal bureaucracy in the agencies other previous presidents have created and prepared in advance, to institute the most draconian and business-killing regulations this country has ever known. The government is now doing everything possible to destroy the economy of this nation before the next elections.
FEMA and the EPA have gained incredible authority that the US Constitution has never given any arm of government. It has acquired by presidential fiat legislative authority and regulatory authority – the power to create rules and regulations and the power to enforce those rules and regulations without the oversight and permission of the Legislature; that is without either the US House of Representatives or the US Senate granting it these rights and authorities under law. These are the small horns that boasts great things against the liberties God has granted the citizenry of this country which our Constitution is meant to protect against such usurpations as more and more our civil rights are being violated.
The Judicial Branch of government has increasingly granted these unelected federal, state, and local bureaucracies authority to regulate and enforce by force to usurp these rights and to claim more authority as the federal leviathan continues to grow with each successive presidency. Since Woodrow Wilson, almost every president has violated their Oath of Office, to faithfully execute the office of the President of the United States of America, and to protect, defend, and uphold the Constitution of the United States of America against enemies; foreign and domestic, so help them God; with the current occupant of the White House have the distinction as the one with the most violations of American Law since Franklyn Delano Roosevelt in the early to mid-twentieth century.
