"Government" is an Idol. "Government" is a false god.The first of the Ten Commandments is this:
What are "gods?" Answer: "archists" In the Bible, "gods" are politicians, emperors, and military conquerors (or images of those Pharaohs, Caesars, and Führers, or the demons behind the political puppets). In the New American Standard Bible, the word "gods" in Exodus 20:3 is translated "judges" in Exodus 22:8-9 (and Exodus 21:6 in the KJV), "rulers" in Psalm 82:1 (compare Psalm 138:1), and "mighty prince" in Genesis 23:6. After the gods (Pharaohs, Caesars, and Führers) successfully invade and subjugate a people, they brainwash the enslaved masses into believing that their masters are actually their "benefactors" or "saviors" (σωτήρ, soter) (Luke 22:25) Jesus is the only legitimate archist (1 Timothy 6:15). He is described as "the Lord of lords, the King of kings," and the God of gods. The fact that there exist kings, lords, and gods, doesn't mean that their kingdoms are legitimate. The only legitimate "nation" on earth is the nation mentioned in 1 Peter 2:9. Whether we describe Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Trump as "kings," "lords" or "gods," they are false gods, according to the Bible. If Trump is a "king," he should shut down his earthly "kingdom" at once, and let Jesus be King. The only legitimate King is also our Creator (John 1:3). Our Creator is our only real Lord, our only real God. All creaturely kings and all creaturely lords and all creaturely gods (whether human or demonic) are false gods, false lords, and false kings. Our Creator is the only lord, god, king we should worship and serve.
The Bible is against rival gods. In the Bible, "salvation" usually means "freedom from archists." God's Word promises that if we obey His Law, He will not send archists against us. If we disobey, He promises to send evil, that is, "governments." Salvation is seen in Exodus 20:2
"Anarchism" is seen in verse 3:
Thou shalt have no other archists before Me. Christians believe God brings Salvation. Non-Christians believe "the Public Sector" brings Salvation. Christians serve God and each other in "the Private Sector." We need to abolish "the Public Sector" as a false god. The Biblical Definition of Salvation "Anarchism" -- a world free from false gods, false lords, and false kings -- is the "Good News" -- the Gospel. Thesis 41: The Character of "gods" The Bible is an "Anarchist Manifesto" |

"Now you have indeed gone away because
you longed greatly for your father's house ; but why
did you steal my gods
?"
"The one with whom you find your gods
shall not live ; in the presence of our kinsmen
point out what is yours among my belongings
and take it for yourself." For Jacob did not know
that Rachel had stolen them.
So Jacob said to his household and to all
who were with him, "Put away the foreign gods
which are among you, and purify yourselves and change
your garments ;
So they gave to Jacob all the foreign
gods which
they had and the rings which were in their ears
, and Jacob hid them under the oak
which was near Shechem .

that night , and will strike down all the firstborn
in the land of Egypt , both man
and beast ; and against all the gods
of Egypt I will execute judgments -- I am the LORD
.

than all the gods
; indeed , it was proven when they dealt
proudly against the people."

before Me.

Me; gods of silver
or gods of gold
, you shall not make for yourselves .
Then his master shall bring him
unto the judges; he
shall also bring him to the door, or
unto the door post; and his master shall bore
his ear through with an aul; and
he shall serve him for ever.

"Now concerning everything which I have said
to you, be on your guard ; and do not mention the name
of other gods
, nor let them be heard from your mouth .
"You shall not worship their gods
, nor serve them, nor do
according to their deeds ; but you shall utterly overthrow them and break
their sacred pillars in pieces .
"You shall make no covenant with them or
with their gods .
"They shall not live in your land , because
they will make you sin against Me; for if you serve their gods
, it will surely be a snare to you."
otherwise you might make a covenant with the inhabitants
of the land and they would play the harlot with their gods
and sacrifice to their gods
, and someone might invite you to eat of his sacrifice
,
and you might take some of his daughters for
your sons , and his daughters might play the harlot
with their gods and cause your sons
also to play the harlot with their gods
.
"You shall make for yourself no molten gods
.
'Do not turn to idols or make for yourselves molten
gods ; I am the LORD
your God .
For they invited the people to the sacrifices
of their gods , and the people
ate and bowed down to their gods
.
while the Egyptians were burying all their firstborn
whom the LORD had struck down among them. The LORD
had also executed judgments on their gods
.

, the work of man's hands , wood
and stone , which neither see
nor hear nor eat
nor smell .
'You shall have no other gods
before Me.
"You shall not follow other gods
, any of the gods
of the peoples who surround you,
"For they will turn your sons away from following
Me to serve other gods
; then the anger of the LORD will be kindled
against you and He will quickly destroy you.
"You shall consume all the peoples whom
the LORD your God will deliver to you; your eye
shall not pity them, nor shall you serve their
gods , for that would be a snare
to you.
"The graven images of their gods
you are to burn with fire ; you shall not covet
the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take
it for yourselves, or you will be snared by it, for it is an abomination
to the LORD your God .
"It shall come about if you ever forget
the LORD your God and go after
other gods
and serve them and worship them, I testify
against you today that you will surely perish
"Beware that your hearts are not deceived
, and that you do not turn away and serve other
gods and worship
them.

of the LORD your God , but turn aside from the way
which I am commanding you today , by following
other gods
which you have not known .
"You shall utterly destroy all the places where
the nations whom you shall dispossess serve
their gods , on the high
mountains and on the hills and under every
green tree .
"You shall tear down their altars and smash
their sacred pillars and burn their Asherim
with fire , and you shall cut down the engraved images
of their gods and
obliterate their name from that place .
beware that you are not ensnared to follow them, after
they are destroyed before you, and that you do not inquire
after their gods , saying
, 'How do these nations serve
their gods , that I also
may do likewise ?'
"You shall not behave thus toward the LORD
your God , for every abominable act which
the LORD hates they have done for their gods
; for they even burn their sons and daughters
in the fire to their gods
.

concerning which he spoke to you, saying , 'Let
us go after other gods

them,'
"If your brother , your mother's son
, or your son or daughter
, or the wife you cherish , or
your friend who is as your own soul , entice
you secretly , saying , 'Let us go and serve
other gods
' (whom neither you nor your fathers have known
,
of the gods of the peoples
who are around you, near you or
far from you, from one end of the earth to the
other end ),
some worthless men have gone out from among
you and have seduced the inhabitants of their city
, saying , 'Let us go and serve other
gods ' (whom
you have not known ),
and has gone and served other gods
and worshiped them, or the sun or the moon
or any of the heavenly host
, which I have not commanded ,
'But the prophet who speaks a word
presumptuously in My name which I have not commanded
him to speak , or which he speaks in the name
of other gods

so that they may not teach you to do according
to all their detestable things which they have done
for their gods , so that you would sin
against the LORD your God .
and do not turn aside from any of the words which
I command you today , to the right or to the left
, to go after other gods
to serve them.
"The LORD will bring you and your king , whom
you set over you, to a nation which
neither you nor your fathers have known
, and there you shall serve other gods
, wood and stone .
"Moreover, the LORD will scatter you among all
peoples , from one end of the earth to the
other end of the earth ; and there you shall serve
other gods
, wood and stone , which you or your fathers
have not known .
so that there will not be among you a man or
woman , or family or
tribe , whose heart turns
away today from the LORD our God , to go
and serve the gods
of those nations ; that there will not be
among you a root bearing poisonous fruit
and wormwood .
'They went and served other gods
and worshiped them, gods
whom they have not known and whom He had not allotted
to them.
"But if your heart turns away and you will
not obey , but are drawn away and worship other
gods and serve
them,
The LORD said to Moses , "Behold
, you are about to lie down with your fathers ; and this
people will arise and play the harlot with the
strange gods
of the land , into the midst of which they are going
, and will forsake Me and break My covenant which
I have made with them.
"But I will surely hide My face in that day
because of all the evil which
they will do , for they will turn to other gods
.
"For when I bring them into the land flowing
with milk and honey , which I swore
to their fathers , and they have eaten and are satisfied
and become prosperous then they will turn to other
gods and serve
them, and spurn Me and break My covenant .
"They sacrificed to demons who were not God
, To gods whom they have not known
, New gods who came
lately , Whom your fathers did not dread .
"And He will say , 'Where are their gods
, The rock in which they sought refuge
so that you will not associate with these nations
, these which remain among you, or mention
the name of their gods
, or make anyone swear by them, or serve them, or bow
down to them.
"When you transgress the covenant of the LORD
your God , which He commanded you, and go
and serve other gods
and bow down to them, then the anger of the LORD
will burn against you, and you will perish quickly
from off the good land which
He has given you."
Joshua said to all the people
, "Thus says the LORD , the God
of Israel , 'From ancient times your fathers lived
beyond the River , namely, Terah , the father
of Abraham and the father of Nahor , and they served
other gods
.
"Now , therefore, fear the LORD and serve
Him in sincerity and truth ; and put away the gods
which your fathers served beyond
the River and in Egypt , and serve the LORD
.
"If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve
the LORD , choose for yourselves today whom
you will serve : whether the gods
which your fathers served which
were beyond the River , or the gods
of the Amorites in whose land you are living
; but as for me and my house , we will serve the LORD
."
The people answered and said , "Far
be it from us that we should forsake the LORD to serve
other gods
;
"If you forsake the LORD and serve
foreign gods
, then He will turn and do you harm and consume
you after He has done good to you."
"Now therefore, put away the foreign gods
which are in your midst , and incline your hearts
to the LORD , the God of Israel ."
"Therefore I also said , 'I will not drive
them out before you; but they will become as thorns in your sides
and their gods will be a snare
to you.' "
Yet they did not listen to their judges , for
they played the harlot after other gods
and bowed themselves down to them. They turned aside quickly
from the way in which their fathers had walked
in obeying the commandments of the LORD ; they
did not do as their fathers.
But it came about when the judge died , that
they would turn back and act more corruptly
than their fathers , in following other
gods to serve
them and bow down to them; they did not abandon their practices
or their stubborn ways .
and they took their daughters for themselves as wives
, and gave their own daughters to their sons ,
and served their gods
.
"New gods
were chosen ; Then war was in the gates
. Not a shield or a spear was seen Among forty
thousand in Israel .
and I said to you, "I am the LORD your God
; you shall not fear the gods
of the Amorites in whose land you live
. But you have not obeyed Me.""'
Then the sons of Israel again did
evil in the sight of the LORD , served
the Baals and the Ashtaroth , the gods
of Aram , the gods
of Sidon , the gods
of Moab , the gods
of the sons of Ammon , and the gods
of the Philistines ; thus they forsook the LORD
and did not serve Him.
"Yet you have forsaken Me and served other
gods ; therefore
I will no longer deliver you.
"Go and cry out to the gods
which you have chosen ; let them deliver you in
the time of your distress ."
So they put away the foreign gods
from among them and served the LORD ; and He could
bear the misery of Israel no longer
He said , "You have taken away my gods
which I made , and the priest , and have gone
away, and what do I have besides ? So how can
you say to me, 'What is the matter with you?' "
Then she said , "Behold , your sister-in-law
has gone back to her people and her gods
; return after your sister-in-law ."
"Woe to us! Who shall deliver us from the hand
of these mighty gods
? These are the gods
who smote the Egyptians with all kinds of plagues
in the wilderness .
"So you shall make likenesses of your tumors
and likenesses of your mice that ravage the land
, and you shall give glory to the God of Israel
; perhaps He will ease His hand from you, your gods
, and your land .
Then Samuel spoke to all the house
of Israel , saying , "If you return
to the LORD with all your heart , remove
the foreign gods
and the Ashtaroth from among you and direct
your hearts to the LORD and serve Him alone
; and He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines
."
"Like all the deeds which they have done
since the day that I brought them up from Egypt
even to this day --in that they have forsaken
Me and served other gods
--so they are doing to you also .
The Philistine said to David , "Am I a dog
, that you come to me with sticks ?" And the Philistine
cursed David by his gods
.
"Now therefore, please let my lord the king
listen to the words of his servant . If
the LORD has stirred you up against me, let Him accept
an offering ; but if it is men, cursed
are they before the LORD , for they have driven
me out today so that I would have no attachment
with the inheritance of the LORD , saying , 'Go
, serve other gods
.'
"And what one nation on the earth
is like Your people Israel , whom God
went to redeem for Himself as a people and to
make a name for Himself, and to do a great
thing for You and awesome things for Your land , before
Your people whom You have redeemed for Yourself
from Egypt , from nations and their gods
?
"But if you or your sons indeed turn away
from following Me, and do not keep My commandments
and My statutes which I have set before
you, and go and serve other gods
and worship them,
"And they will say , 'Because they forsook
the LORD their God , who brought
their fathers out of the land of Egypt , and adopted
other gods
and worshiped them and served them, therefore the
LORD has brought all this
adversity on them.' "
from the nations concerning which the LORD had said
to the sons of Israel , "You shall not associate
with them, nor shall they associate with you, for they will surely
turn your heart away after
their gods ." Solomon
held fast to these in love .
For when Solomon was old , his wives
turned his heart away after
other gods
; and his heart was not wholly devoted to the LORD
his God , as the heart of David his father
had been.
Thus also he did for all his foreign
wives , who burned incense and sacrificed to
their gods .
and had commanded him concerning this thing
, that he should not go after other gods
; but he did not observe what the LORD had commanded
.
So the king consulted , and made two
golden calves , and he said to them, "It
is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem
; behold your gods
, O Israel , that brought you up from the land
of Egypt ."
you also have done more evil than
all who were before you, and have gone
and made for yourself other gods
and molten images to provoke Me to anger and have cast
Me behind your back --
Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah
, saying , "So may the gods
do to me and even more , if
I do not make your life as the life of one of
them by tomorrow about this time ."
Ben-hadad sent to him and said , "May the gods
do so to me and more also
, if the dust of Samaria will suffice
for handfuls for all the people who
follow me."
Naaman said , "If not, please let your servant
at least be given two mules' load
of earth ; for your servant will no longer
offer burnt offering nor will he sacrifice
to other gods
, but to the LORD .
Now this came about because the sons of Israel
had sinned against the LORD their God , who had
brought them up from the land of Egypt from under
the hand of Pharaoh , king of Egypt
, and they had feared other gods
But every nation still made gods
of its own and put them in the houses of the high
places which the people of Samaria had made
, every nation in their cities in which they lived
.
and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak
; and the Sepharvites burned their children in
the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech the gods
of Sepharvaim .
They feared the LORD and served their own gods
according to the custom of the nations from among whom
they had been carried away into exile
with whom the LORD made a covenant and commanded
them, saying , "You shall not fear other gods
, nor bow down yourselves to them nor serve
them nor sacrifice to them.
"The statutes and the ordinances and the law
and the commandment which He wrote for you, you
shall observe to do forever ; and you shall
not fear other gods
.
"The covenant that I have made with you, you shall not forget
, nor shall you fear other gods
.
'Has any one of the gods
of the nations delivered his land from the hand
of the king of Assyria ?
'Where are the gods
of Hamath and Arpad ? Where are the gods
of Sepharvaim , Hena and Ivvah ? Have they delivered
Samaria from my hand ?
'Who among all the gods
of the lands have delivered their land from my hand
, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem from
my hand ?' "
'Did the gods of those nations
which my fathers destroyed deliver
them, even Gozan and Haran and Rezeph and the sons
of Eden who were in Telassar ?
and have cast their gods
into the fire , for they were not gods
but the work of men's hands , wood
and stone . So they have destroyed them.
"Because they have forsaken Me and have burned
incense to other gods
that they might provoke Me to anger with all the work
of their hands , therefore My wrath burns
against this place , and it shall not be quenched
."'
But they acted treacherously against the God of their fathers
and played the harlot after the gods
of the peoples of the land , whom God
had destroyed before them.
They put his armor in the house of their gods
and fastened his head in the house of Dagon
.
They abandoned their gods
there ; so David gave the order and they were burned
with fire .
For great is the LORD , and greatly to be praised
; He also is to be feared above all gods
.
For all the gods
of the peoples are idols , But the LORD made
the heavens .
"The house which I am about to build will
be great, for greater is our God than all
the gods .
"But if you turn away and forsake My statutes
and My commandments which I have set before
you, and go and serve other gods
and worship them,
"And they will say , 'Because they forsook
the LORD , the God of their fathers who
brought them from the land of Egypt , and they adopted
other gods
and worshiped them and served them; therefore
He has brought all this adversity
on them.' "
"So now you intend to resist the kingdom
of the LORD through the sons of David
, being a great multitude and having with you the golden
calves which Jeroboam made
for gods for you.
"Have you not driven out the priests of the LORD
, the sons of Aaron and the Levites , and made
for yourselves priests like the peoples of other lands
? Whoever comes to consecrate
himself with a young bull and seven rams
, even he may become a priest of what are no gods
.
Now after Amaziah came from slaughtering
the Edomites , he brought the gods
of the sons of Seir , set them up as his gods
, bowed down before them and burned incense to
them.
Then the anger of the LORD burned against Amaziah
, and He sent him a prophet who said to him, "Why
have you sought the gods
of the people who have not delivered their own people
from your hand ?"
But Amaziah would not listen , for it was from God
, that He might deliver them into the hand of Joash because
they had sought the gods
of Edom .
For he sacrificed to the gods
of Damascus which had defeated him, and said , "Because
the gods of the kings
of Aram helped them, I will sacrifice to them
that they may help me." But they became the downfall
of him and all Israel .
In every city of Judah he made
high places to burn incense to other gods
, and provoked the LORD , the God of his fathers
, to anger .
'Do you not know what I and my fathers have done
to all the peoples of the lands ? Were the gods
of the nations of the lands able at all to deliver
their land from my hand ?
'Who was there among all the gods
of those nations which my fathers
utterly destroyed who could deliver
his people out of my hand , that your God
should be able to deliver you from my hand ?
He also wrote letters to insult the LORD
God of Israel , and to speak against
Him, saying , "As the gods
of the nations of the lands have not delivered
their people from my hand , so the God
of Hezekiah will not deliver His people from
my hand ."
They spoke of the God of Jerusalem as of the gods
of the peoples of the earth , the work of men's
hands .
He also removed the foreign gods
and the idol from the house of the LORD , as
well as all the altars which he had built
on the mountain of the house of the LORD and
in Jerusalem , and he threw them outside the city
.
"Because they have forsaken Me and have burned
incense to other gods
, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works
of their hands ; therefore My wrath will be poured
out on this place and it shall not be quenched
."'
Also King Cyrus brought out the articles
of the house of the LORD , which Nebuchadnezzar
had carried away from Jerusalem and put in the
house of his gods
;
I said , "You are gods
, And all of you are sons of the Most High
There is no one like You among the gods
, O Lord , Nor are there any works like Yours.
For the LORD is a great God And a great
King above all gods
,
For great is the LORD and greatly to be praised
; He is to be feared above all gods
.
For all the gods
of the peoples are idols , But the LORD made
the heavens .
Let all those be ashamed who serve graven
images Who boast themselves of idols ; Worship
Him, all you gods
.
For You are the LORD Most High over all
the earth ; You are exalted far above
all gods
.
For I know that the LORD is great And that our
Lord is above all gods
.
I will give You thanks with all my heart ; I
will sing praises to You before the gods
.
"Now behold , here comes a troop
of riders , horsemen in pairs ." And one said
, "Fallen , fallen is Babylon ; And all
the images of her gods
are shattered on the ground ."
'Beware that Hezekiah does not mislead you, saying
, "The LORD will deliver us." Has any one
of the gods of the nations
delivered his land from the hand of the king
of Assyria ?
'Where are the gods
of Hamath and Arpad ? Where are the gods
of Sepharvaim ? And when have they delivered Samaria
from my hand ?
'Who among all the gods
of these lands have delivered their land
from my hand , that the LORD would deliver Jerusalem
from my hand ?' "
'Did the gods of those nations
which my fathers have destroyed deliver
them, even Gozan and Haran and Rezeph and the sons
of Eden who were in Telassar ?
and have cast their gods
into the fire , for they were not gods
but the work of men's hands , wood
and stone . So they have destroyed them.
Declare the things that are going to come afterward
, That we may know that you are gods
; Indeed , do good or evil , that we may
anxiously look about us and fear together .
They will be turned back and be utterly put to shame
Who trust in idols , Who say to molten
images "You are our gods
."
"I will pronounce My judgments on them concerning
all their wickedness , whereby they have forsaken
Me and have offered sacrifices to other gods
, and worshiped the works of their own hands .
"But where are your gods
Which you made for yourself? Let them arise , if
they can save you In the time of your trouble
; For according to the number of your cities Are your gods
, O Judah .
"Why should I pardon you? Your sons have forsaken
Me And sworn by those who are not gods
. When I had fed them to the full They committed adultery And trooped
to the harlot's house .
"It shall come about when they say , 'Why
has the LORD our God done all
these things to us?' then you shall say to them, 'As you have forsaken
Me and served foreign gods
in your land , so you will serve strangers
in a land that is not yours.'
if you do not oppress the alien , the orphan ,
or the widow , and do not shed innocent blood
in this place , nor walk
after other gods
to your own ruin ,
"Will you steal , murder , and commit adultery
and swear falsely , and offer sacrifices to Baal
and walk after other gods
that you have not known ,
"The children gather wood , and the fathers
kindle the fire , and the women knead
dough to make cakes for the queen
of heaven ; and they pour out drink offerings
to other gods
in order to spite Me.
"They have turned back to the iniquities of their ancestors
who refused to hear My words
, and they have gone after other gods
to serve them; the house of Israel and the house
of Judah have broken My covenant which
I made with their fathers ."
"Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants
of Jerusalem will go and cry to the gods
to whom they burn incense but they surely will not
save them in the time of their disaster .
"For your gods are as many
as your cities , O Judah ; and as many as the streets
of Jerusalem are the altars you have set up to
the shameful thing altars to burn incense to Baal
.
'This wicked people , who
refuse to listen to My words , who walk
in the stubbornness of their hearts and have gone
after other gods
to serve them and to bow down to them, let them be just like this
waistband which is totally worthless.
"Then you are to say to them, 'It is because your forefathers
have forsaken Me,' declares the LORD , 'and
have followed other gods
and served them and bowed down to them; but Me they have forsaken
and have not kept My law .
'So I will hurl you out of this land into the land
which you have not known , neither you nor your
fathers ; and there you will serve other
gods day
and night , for I will grant you no favor
.'
"Because they have forsaken Me and have made
this an alien place and have burned
sacrifices in it to other gods
, that neither they nor their forefathers nor the
kings of Judah had ever known , and because
they have filled this place with the blood
of the innocent
"The houses of Jerusalem and the houses
of the kings of Judah will be defiled like the
place Topheth , because of all the houses
on whose rooftops they burned sacrifices to all
the heavenly host and poured out drink
offerings to other gods
.""'
"Then they will answer , 'Because they forsook
the covenant of the LORD their God and bowed
down to other gods
and served them.' "
and do not go after other gods
to serve them and to worship them, and do not provoke
Me to anger with the work of your hands , and I will do
you no harm .'
"The Chaldeans who are fighting against this
city will enter and set this
city on fire and burn it, with the
houses where people have offered incense to Baal
on their roofs and poured out drink offerings
to other gods
to provoke Me to anger
"Also I have sent to you all My servants
the prophets , sending them again and again
, saying : 'Turn now every
man from his evil way and amend your deeds
, and do not go after other gods
to worship them. Then you will dwell in the land
which I have given to you and to your forefathers
; but you have not inclined your ear or listened
to Me.
"And I shall set fire to the temples of
the gods of Egypt
, and he will burn them and take them captive So he will wrap
himself with the land of Egypt as a shepherd
wraps himself with his garment , and he will depart
from there safely .
"He will also shatter the obelisks of Heliopolis
, which is in the land of Egypt ; and the temples
of the gods of Egypt
he will burn with fire .""'
because of their wickedness which they committed
so as to provoke Me to anger by continuing to burn
sacrifices and to serve other gods

your fathers .
'But they did not listen or incline their ears
to turn from their wickedness , so as not to burn
sacrifices to other gods

provoking Me to anger with the works of your hands
, burning sacrifices to other gods
in the land of Egypt , where you are entering
to reside , so that you might be cut off and become
a curse and a reproach among all the nations
of the earth ?
Then all the men who were aware that their wives
were burning sacrifices to other gods
, along with all the women who were standing
by, as a large assembly , including all the people
who were living in Pathros in the land of Egypt
, responded to Jeremiah , saying ,
The LORD of hosts , the God of Israel
, says , "Behold , I am going to punish Amon
of Thebes , and Pharaoh , and Egypt along with
her gods and her kings
, even Pharaoh and those who trust in him.
"I will make an end of Moab ," declares the
LORD , "the one who offers sacrifice on the high
place and the one who burns incense to his gods
.
"Son of man , say to the leader
of Tyre , 'Thus says the Lord
GOD , "Because your heart is lifted
up And you have said , 'I am a god , I sit in
the seat of gods
In the heart of the seas '; Yet you are a man
and not God , Although you make your heart like
the heart of God --
"Also their gods
with their metal images and their precious vessels
of silver and gold he will take into captivity
to Egypt , and he on his part will refrain from
attacking the king of the North for some years
.
"He will show no regard for the gods
of his fathers or for the desire of women , nor
will he show regard for any other god ; for he
will magnify himself above them all .
Then the LORD said to me, "Go again
, love a woman who is loved by her husband
, yet an adulteress , even as the LORD loves
the sons of Israel , though they turn to other
gods and love
raisin cakes ."
"You also carried along Sikkuth your king
and Kiyyun , your images , the star of your gods
which you made for yourselves.
The LORD has issued a command concerning you:
"Your name will no longer be perpetuated
. I will cut off idol and image From the house
of your gods . I will prepare
your grave , For you are contemptible ."
The LORD will be terrifying to them, for He will starve
all the gods
of the earth ; and all the coastlands of the nations
will bow down to Him, everyone from his own place
.

Famous Archists in History: |
You'll recognize one of those archists above as Adolph Hitler.
Hitler did not kill six million Jews.
Name one Jew whom you can prove Hitler killed.
Six million Jews were killed by
six million Germans
who chose to wear a silly uniform, walk a silly goose-step, and follow the orders of a beyond-silly, pathologically evil man.These Germans were archists. They were "ordinary people." Just like you.
|
If you don't take immediate steps to become an anarchist, then by default you'll be an archist. Plus, you'll be unable to resist the temptations, the bribes, the pressure and the threats by archists to become an archist. You'll become an archist just like those rows and rows of "good" Germans above. They are just like you. You are just like them. "Sensible." "Rational." "Practical." |
