Let Me Ask One More Time: Were You Armed in Church this Sunday?

This is how I preach in the pulpit every Sunday. I think it my duty to be openly armed as an example and encouragement to others -- AND as a discouragement and warning to some others as well. As Christ’s under shepherd, it is my duty to protect the flock.

Less than two months ago I posed the question: Were you armed in church this Sunday? And now, once again, this past Sunday (11/5/17), a low-life atheist scum murdered more than two dozen people in a church meeting house in Texas. He wounded almost that many more. Reports now confirm that he fired over 400 rounds, stopping to change magazines some 15 times.

Allow me to restate some of my previous comments and to add to them:

1 – You are not “safe” in church and you need to be prepared to defend yourself -- EVERYWHERE.

2 – You should ALWAYS be armed – ALWAYS. The right to defend yourself, and hence to be armed, is God-given. It is not granted by, nor legitimately restricted by, the state or anyone else. If the “law” would disarm you, then in the immortal words of Charles Dickens’ character, Mr. Brumble: “the law is an ass.”

3 – The police CANNOT and will not protect you – and according to the courts it is not even their duty to do so. They show up after the fact; they take perps into custody (if they have not already killed themselves); and they draw chalk lines. Additionally, they will confiscate any firearm that was used for legitimate self-defense and will oft times arrest those who defended themselves and/or their loved ones against an aggressor. In this most recent incident in Texas, it was two citizens who took down the perpetrator (NOT THE POLICE) and neither of them had military or police training.

4 – Had there been armed members of the congregation in Texas, the shooter could have been taken under fire and his ability to inflict harm would have been greatly reduced, if not eliminated. He would have been particularly vulnerable every time he paused to reload and could likely have been taken out.

5 – Will you be ready to do your duty should something like this happen at your church, at your place of business, at your organization, or at your home? Make no mistake about it, if you are the head of a household it is your duty to protect your family.

6 – AND one more note, for you tyrannical do-gooders, who would like to disarm me and violate my rights and diminish my ability to protect my own -- I stand just as ready to meet you (and your paid minions) as I do to meet any other evil doer who would seek to harm my family or to lessen my ability to protect them.

So, I ask, as I have before: Were you armed in church this Sunday?

This is the sign that appears at the back of our meeting house:

I know that many in the congregation are armed in addition to me. Some carry openly and some concealed.

One last note -- this is how I speak from the podium at our Free Florida First meetings:

I do suspect that there are some folks that would like to make us a target on many different levels. So be it. I am determined that we will not be an easy one.

Consistency, thou art a jewel!

What a precious and rare jewel consistency is!

Many of us may strive for it, but none of us perfectly attain to it. That does not mean, however, that we should not pursue it.

I read an article this week about the conspiracy between big business, big religion, and big government to advance the settlement of alien peoples and cultures into small-town America (yes, you guessed it, Muslims). This conspiracy is leading to the destruction of the shared culture and morals in many small towns across the land.

I encourage you to read the article here:
http://www.wnd.com/2017/10/global-meatpacking-giant-goes-all-in-for-refugee-labor/?cat_orig=us

What I find more disturbing is how many rational and liberty-loving folks, folks who stand against such destructive immigration, are willing to lend their support to this despicable conspiracy on Sunday. They lend their support to the conspiracy by where they choose to worship and where they choose to contribute.

Monday through Saturday, they may be liberty loving Confederates, Libertarians, or Conservatives, but on Sunday they support the utter destruction of Western Culture in their own backyard.

I invite you to research this conspiracy for yourself. The article cited above mentions several denominations and groups by name, but there are no doubt many others:

1. The National Council of Churches, with which most mainline Protestant denominations are affiliated.

2. The Episcopal Church

3. A Jewish Society

4. The Lutheran Church

5. The Catholic Church

6. The National Association of Evangelicals

Consider that if your Monday through Saturday worldview does not align with the worldview promoted by the place where you worship on the weekend, you are lending to the destruction of yourself, your children, your culture, your morals, and your community.

I am somewhat baffled by how many folks are content to build an artificial wall between their “secular” and their “sacred” views and practices. I have a hard time justifying such a wall from the Scriptures.

Please understand that I have by no means attained, but I do strive to be the same on Sunday that I am the remainder of the week.

Philippians 3:12-14 
Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.  (13)  Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,  (14)  I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

* I go armed all week long – I go armed on Sunday.

* I fly the Confederate flags of my fathers all week long – I fly the flags of my fathers on Sunday.

* I stand for Western Christian Culture all week long – I stand for Western Christian Culture on Sunday.

* I stand for personal responsibility, liberty and volunteerism all week long – I stand for personal responsibility, liberty and volunteerism on Sunday.

* I reverence a Sovereign God all week long – I reverence a Sovereign God on Sunday.

If you cannot be and support on Sunday what you are and support the rest of the week, you need to reevaluate what you really are and what you really stand for.

I’m not trying to make everyone a Baptist. What good would that do? The Lord knows that there are plenty that claim to be “Baptists” that are as corrupt and inconsistent as any of the other “churches” mentioned above.

I’m not even trying to make an Independent Sovereign Grace Baptist of everyone. I believe that God alone is capable of that.

John 15:16 
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

I’m just saying that I don’t really understand how some folks continue to support organizations, societies, and churches – not to mention governments (you know, like the good ole’ US of A) – that seek to undermine their communities, their cultures, their morals and their very existence.

So in closing, I reiterate: If you have difficulty being on Sunday what you are all week long, you either need to be something different on Sunday, or something different the rest of the week.

I WILL NOT COMPLY!

Recently one of my favorite bloggers highlighted the following comment made by one of his readers:

Sorry, I will not cache my guns. . . . I will act according to the rights bestowed upon me by my creator. . . . I am not going to go quietly into the night so that those in power can gain even more than they have. . . . If the time comes that I need to hide my guns, then it is the time that our own government has become that which our founders fought to keep from controlling them as well as future citizens. We then become the resistance to the very people that would enslave us. . . . My simple answer to all of it is, NO! I will not comply.
(Herschel Smith, The Captain’s Journal http://www.captainsjournal.com/2017/10/15/surveying-the-comments/)

That comment brought to mind a remark made several years ago by the brilliant economist, Walter Williams:

Today's liberals wish to disarm us so they can run their evil and oppressive agenda on us. The fight against crime is just a convenient excuse to further their agenda. I don't know about you, but if you hear that Williams' guns have been taken, you'll know Williams is dead.

We are now seeing self-professed pro-Second Amendment organizations, like the NRA, and “conservative” politicians lending their support to outlawing and even confiscating firearm accessories, such as “bump stocks,” high capacity magazines, etc. Just think about it for a moment. What they are ultimately advocating is having someone (not themselves, of course) come to my door and demand that I surrender a piece of plastic or a piece of metal that I legally acquired in the past. Then, should I refuse to surrender my legitimately owned property they are advocating my incarceration and/or my death.

So, should I refuse to comply with their illegitimate, immoral and unconstitutional demands -- should I be so bold as to defend my rights – they are perfectly content with my imprisonment – they are perfectly content with my death -- to advance their tyrannical and ungodly agenda.

So, lest there be any misunderstanding, I will publicly proclaim my intentions, before God and man.

• I WILL NOT COMPLY!
• I WILL NOT SURRENDER ONE ACCESSORY!
• I WILL NOT SURRENDER ONE MAGAZINE!
• I WILL NOT SURRENDER ONE ROUND!
• I WILL NOT SURRENDER ONE FIREARM!
• Here I stand, so help me God!

So, if you are inclined to violate my God-given rights, my response to you is a very simple one:

Molon Labe

And lest you misunderstand that, I say “Come and take them” – if you think you can – if you are willing to take the life a God-fearing, liberty-loving Christian to advance your nefarious political agenda.

Know that I will resist. Know that I will defend myself, my property, and my family.

Know that I have no intention of living as your subject or as your slave.

So when you come, you best bring your lunch with you.

Luke 22:36 

Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

Luke 11:21  

When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:

The Constitution Grants No Rights

This week I wrote a Letter to the Editor of our local propaganda outlet (The Gainesville Sun) in response to a letter from someone who demonstrated no understanding of freedom or of human rights.

I share it below:

***********

The Gainesville Sun recently published a letter to the editor that was terribly flawed and ignorant, if not deliberately deceptive. The letter was an argument against gun rights.

First, the author presents “freedom” as a zero-sum game, stating: “Trouble is one freedom always cancels some other freedom.” That is a ludicrous statement and manifests a total misunderstanding of what constitutes freedom. My exercise of freedom does not diminish anyone else’s exercise of freedom, unless one completely distorts the meaning of “freedom”. But I’ll not dwell upon that obvious fallacy here.

The author of the letter goes on to say: “Our Constitution grants the right to own guns but not the right to not be shot.” I have to wonder, has the author read the Constitution? Has he read the Second Amendment? Does he perhaps have some problem with basic language comprehension?

The Second Amendment grants no right! It recognizes a preexisting right – a God-given right – or if you will, a natural right. The Second Amendment simply seeks to protect a right that mankind already possesses from encroachment by a tyrannical government.

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

Show me anywhere in the Constitution, or in the Second Amendment, the claim to be granting the right to keep and bear arms. No, we already possess that right. Indeed, true rights are not and cannot be granted by government. They already exist apart from government.

Consider the recognition of this truth in the Declaration of Independence:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”

Government does not grant rights; it is instituted with the purpose of securing those rights already granted by the Creator. What part of that is so difficult to understand?

Eliminating the Second Amendment or passing some law against the possession of firearms will not and cannot abrogate a right that already exists.

Truth is: “I don’t need no stinkin’ Second Amendment.” I already possess the right to keep and to bear arms.

***********

UPDATE: The Gainesville Sun actually published my letter -- well at least a greatly edited version of it. If you like, you can read it here:

“Serving” in the Amerikan Military

Another episode from my continuing saga of “Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be Imperial Storm Troopers.”

How can any Christian or any Southerner justify entering the Evil Amerikan Empire’s military?

Many of you may be aware of the recent graduate from West Point who openly advocates communism. If not, here are some of the details.

Army Second Lieutenant, Spenser Rapone recently graduated from West Point and is currently assigned to the 10^th Mountain Division (Light Infantry).

While at West Point Rapone openly advocated for Communism.

In the photo below he displays a clinched fist and a message in his cover reading: “COMMUNISM WILL WIN.”

How do you suppose such behavior would be handled had he displayed a message: “THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN” or “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. – Phil. 4:13”?

And here he displays a T-shirt under his uniform with a depiction of the communist terrorist Che Guevara:

What do you suppose the reaction would have been had his shirt contained a Christian Cross or a Confederate Battle Flag or a portrait of General Robert E. Lee?

And here Spenser takes a selfie proudly displaying the Communist Manifesto:

What would the reaction have been had he displayed a Bible or “The South Was Right” by the Kennedy Brothers?

And notice Spenser’s choice of T-shirts this time, the arch war criminal, W. T. Sherman.

Spenser also used an icon of Sherman and a communist flag on his Twitter account.

I find it interesting that some “conservative” sites displayed a cropped or overlaid photo, obscuring General Sherman, such as the Facebook Fan page of Tucker Carlson: 

I suppose they don’t want to besmirch the good name of the terrorist Billy Sherman.

It has also been discovered that the young communist, Spenser, was mentored at West Point by their good Muslim professor, Rasheed Hosein.

I see little purpose in continuing this narrative. Just ask yourself, would you like to see your son or daughter go into combat under the command of such a lowlife South-hating, communist scum as Spenser Rapone?

Oh yes, Spenser is a combat veteran, having “fought for our freedom” over in Afghanistan, before attending the Military Academy.  Exactly what sort of freedom was it that he was fighting for?

But, I suppose there’s nothing wrong with the Amerikan military, besides being anti-Christian, anti-Southerner and anti-Liberty?

So, I say once again, and I will continue to say at every opportunity: “Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be Imperial Storm Troopers.”
