Secession is in the Bible as a Moral Principle When Government Goes Bad.
Secession is coming. There is a whole bunch of fear mongering by some patriots saying it will break up the country. We hear secession is treason and is a bad idea. That is no different for a wife being told to stay in an abusive marriage when the husband is unrepentant. She is beaten to near death daily. Her will is nearly broken and her dignity almost non-existent. If she does not leave the abusive spouse.
She will die a thousand deaths in her soul before physical death comes. Common sense say she must leave or hope is lost. Even under mitigating circumstances being in an abusive home where the kids and wife’s life is danger. It is perfectly within scripture to divorce him.
Many of the founders knew the bible very well. They knew secession is in the bible and is a moral action. You can see the Bible written so well in all our founding documents. Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence:
That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
The Texas Constitution reflects the pprinciple of the original Declaration of Independence in Article 1 sec 1 and 2
1. Texas is a free and independent State, subject only to the Constitution of the United States; and the maintenance of our free institutions and the perpetuity of the Union depend upon the preservation of the right of local self-government unimpaired to all the States.
2. All political power is inherent in the people and all free governments are founded on their authority, and instituted for their benefit. The faith of the people of Texas stands pledged to the preservation of a republican form of government, and, subject to this limitation only, they have at all times the inalienable right to alter, reform or abolish their government in such manner as they may think expedient.
Early Texans written Declaration of Independence. The Texas declaration mimmicks the original 1776 document
When, in consequence of such acts of malfeasance and abdication on the part of the government, anarchy prevails, and civil society is dissolved into its original elements. In such a crisis, the first law of nature, the right of self-preservation, the inherent and inalienable rights of the people to appeal to first principles, and take their political affairs into their own hands in extreme cases, enjoins it as a right towards themselves, and a sacred obligation to their posterity, to abolish such government, and create another in its stead, calculated to rescue them from impending dangers, and to secure their future welfare and happiness.
The early founders understood history and the bible very well. The resorted to using natural law and nature’s God as the precedent to secede. Secession is part of natural law and is in the Bible. When the people of ancient Israel approached the king humbly asking for the taxes to be reduced here is what 1 kings 12: 10-11
10 And the young men that were grown up with him spake unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak unto this people that spake unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it lighter unto us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father’s loins.
11 And now whereas my father did lade you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke: my father hath chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
This was the cause for the 10 tribes of Israel splitting with the House of Judah and Benjamin. When the leader refuses to listen to the people. A king not only will increase the taxes on a people already taxed to oblivion. The King would increase abusing the people in more cruel ways. The Northern Kingdom which was the 10 tribes and a southern kingdom when when Israel broke up.
The American people said no to the TSA abuses, high taxes, Obamacare, new regulation that kill jobs and small business. The said no to indefinite detention and drone killing. How the President respond when Texas was going to arrest TSA workers who touch people in their private areas. President Obama threatened fighter jets flying over Texas making the lone star state a no fly zone if Texas passed the law. The people of Texas and other states need to see what ancient Israel did to escape a tyrannical King.
Secession is moral act. Secession is the right choice. For those who fear it will tear apart the country. Secession is about survival. Secession is how America was founded. The founders knew what the Bible spoke about secession. Secession is the only solution. Why stick around, Washington DC is broke beyond repair. Our Federal Government is so corrupt beyond redemption. The ballot box is rigged and we do not know if we have lawful government because of the massive vote fraud. The whole system is beyond repair.
Secession is a jubilee being free from private central bankers issuing the debt in the form of money. God gave us the path to freedom and happiness in the Bible. Secession is one of God’s remedies when we seek being free from tyranny. Secession is not a bad word Secession is part of God’s word. Let us not forget it.
