When we look at the words that get translated into forsaken, forgotten, and abandoned in the Bible, we find that the context which these descriptions are used is exactly the same as the other words we have studied so far: that man’s main way of forsaking God has been to turn to the kings and kingdoms of the world to serve and save them.

The statist path of the world, where men have believed in human civil government and raised up rulers in Egyptian elections, has been a sinful one that men need to repent from walking on if they wish to end their revolt against God and His Kingdom and start walking down the straight and narrow path again.

It is through the rebellious acts of setting up and supporting systems of human civil government that men revolt against the Kingdom of God and separate themselves from God, who in turn abandons these statists to eat the fruit of their own ways and be filled with their own devices as divine judgment for their wicked ways.

All the systems of human civil government in the world that have ever existed were formed and furthered by sinners who were living in active rebellion against God and His Kingdom, who more often than not remain hardheaded statist rebels even as it becomes more evident that these systems serve as a judgment against this statist political revolt of theirs.

As with all other words describing some concept or another of sin or turning away from God, we find that “rebellious” men spoke of in Scripture are likewise the statists of the world, who chase after systems of human civil government to provide their kings, judges, and lawgivers, rather than to make the Lord our God their sole King and Savior.

When we look at the words that get translated into “guilty” in Scripture, we see that they can be directly linked to the statist ideology and political practices of the people of the world, in the same way as other words that get translated into wicked, iniquity, evil, or sin.

We see just how narrow the gate is that Jesus said few will find when we see that true repentance involves actually taking up the positive work of seeking the literal Kingdom of God, and yet we cannot even hardly get men to abandon the wide road of Egypt and arrive on neutral ground to where they can begin to actually turn toward the way of the Lord.

In pointing out that the sins of statism lead to political bondage under these systems, we should always be sure to show that this judgment is never just without purpose, but that God always uses the harsh rebuke that always comes along with human governments as a means of correcting men and leading to their repentance.

If ever men will realize that their whoredom with Egypt—that is, their lust for human rulers, soldiers, and police officers to serve and save them—has been the great sin against God and His Kingdom, they will need to humble themselves and repent for these iniquities and promise to God that they will no longer trust in men to be their gods and kings.

In order to further the case for man’s need to repent from the sinful path of worldly politics, here we look at another word to express the Biblical concept of making things crooked, bent, or distorted, so as to lay even more groundwork for our argument that the worldly pursuit of human civil government is the main way that men deviate from the righteous path given to us by God.

The essential role of the false pastors and false prophets of the supposedly “Christian” institutions like the churches and seminaries is to act as statist propagandists who make men believe that human government is reconcilable with God, that there is no sin in supporting them and no judgment brought about by it, so that people never seek God’s Kingdom and the governments of man are thereby preserved.

Since the Christian gospel is an anarchist political message of another kingdom that is not of this world, it was always necessary for statists to dilute and distort its major concepts so that they could continue professing the Lord’s name while living contrary to His ways, which explains why the majority of those who call themselves Christians today are real false converts who are better described as Romans.

The so-called churches and seminaries of the world, as well as the false teachers and blind guides that occupy them, have been instrumental in the dilutions and distortions of the anarchist truths of Christianity that work to allow for the uncontested advancement of the kingdoms of the world and the active participation in their upbuilding by men who call themselves servants of the Lord.

Though the statists of the world who call themselves Christians today beleive they are saved on account of their mere professions of faith, the reality is that all people living under human rulers are in bondage to sin and need to repent if they are to ever find divine liberation from this political enslavement that they currently believe is a “free country.”

Once we see that passages on the “workers of iniquity” in the Bible are often in the context of praying to God to judge these men whom we have identified as the state rulers of the world and their accomplices, it becomes even clearer that salvation has a lot to do with being delivered from the hands of wicked statists, contrary to the purely heavenly idea that prevails today.

When we look at Biblical episodes like the exodus from Egypt, we see that God’s judgment on the wicked statists of the world — the crushing of Pharaohs and their armies — also serves as salvation and deliverance for those who once lived under their systems of political domination but who are now repenting from the sins which led to their bondage.

As evil as human rulers are, men bring political bondage upon themselves due to their own sins associated with all systems of human government, such as idolatry for these men, seeking the hand-outs of these authoritarian benefactors who obtain these dainties through robbing our neighbors, or by otherwise failing to seek the Kingdom of God in repentance for the lusting and neighing after the kingdoms of man.

There are numerous references to men in the Bible who are said to be “workers of iniquity.” Once we see that such words are used directly in the context of the acts that are intrinsic to human civil government, it becomes obvious that the men who work iniquity in the Bible and our world are state rulers and their supporters.

“The wicked” in the Bible are never just some individual bad guys or sinners who are out of step with God, but are precisely the type of people who rule over the violent systems of human government of the world, which prey upon men, conspire against them, and whose sole existence is to rob, extort, and murder men.

The violence, theft, murder, idolatry, and other wicked acts that are inherent to man-made systems of government represent man’s great iniquity before the Lord, which leads to their judgment at the hands of these men who they have sinfully made into their gods and saviors.

In this segment of an article series endeavoring to demonstrate that statism—that is, man’s whoredom for human government—is the great sin of mankind, we follow Hebrew words that get translated as wickedness and show how easily they are connected to the general iideology and practice of ruling over other men.

When we look into the various Hebrew words used to describe sin, iniquity, evil, and other words conveying the idea of a people who are partaking in deeds that are opposed to God’s ways, we easily find that these men and their acts can be connected to the statist systems of the world, which stand as the embodiment of man’s rebellion against God and His Kingdom.

As much as we must acknowledge that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, such a claim often becomes the excuse of statist idolaters who want to pretend to be repentant while not actually turning away from the specific sins bound-up with the kingdoms of the world, both its wicked practices and supporting ideology.

If sin is not seen as concrete acts of rebellion against God and His Kingdom, such as the idolatry men have for human government, then men will never see that the very repentance they are in need of is to turn away from their statist adultery with the kingdoms of the world, unlike the men of scripture who knew their own sins led to their bondage.

The concept of “sin” in modern Christianity is often treated as nothing more than some intrinsic flaw in mankind, as opposed to certain and identifiable acts of rebellion against God and His Kingdom. By showing that this vagueness has been a problem, we can begin to show that the implications are great: men fall into the very sins that scripture calls them to repent from partaking in.

In our statist world today where the effects of sin are becoming evermore evident in the corrupted social order around us, it has become common for men to fight against its consequences rather than to strike at the root of sin and repent. When men fail to identify the sins of statism as the root of their bondage, their methods of fighting against it inevitably call for more sin.

As we face a similar tyranny and threat of totalitarianism today as the Russian people did under Soviet rule, it might be wise for us to start recalling some of the methods that evil statists have employed in the past to round-up, cage, and dominate the populations that they sought to gain absolute rule over.

Being that States are raised up by sinners in their lack of faith in God to save them from their enemies, we naturally find that statist societies are filled with faithless people who trust in men to save them instead. Yet it is in these times of tyranny, when the situation grows more hopeless than ever, that we are in need of men with true faith in God.

The Gospel of God’s Kingdom tears down the strongholds of statist ideology, where men have trusted in human governments to save them, and can liberate the people from Egyptian bondage, but it requires that a few brave men take up this great Abolitionist cause and begin scaling the cities with a saving-word for a people trapped in the ideology of the world.

Though there was never such a thing as a “Christian statist” anyway, as the tyrannies of statism continue to expand in our society, the dividing lines between true Christians — the anarchists who seek God’s Kingdom — and the false converts — the statists who side with man’s kingdoms — will continue to widen, and the gulf that has always existed between the two will finally work to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Once we have begun agitation in our local communities by spreading the Gospel of God’s Kingdom through various means like preaching and flyering the land, calling upon men to repent from their allegiance and love and human government and seek the Kingdom of God with us, we must soon start learning how to serve each other again and actually love our neighbors by providing for their needs directly and freely.

The idea that "politics and religion" are two separate realms of a man is a false dichotomy. However, when men attempt to break out of it by becoming statists who engage in the politics of the world, they only show that they don't understand the sense in which politics and religion are inseparable ideas.

When men arbitrarily divide “politics” and “religion” into separate realms, Christianity ceases to be seen as the political ethic of another Kingdom and is instead reduced to a merely private “religious” affair, which then allows men to believe they can engage in the statist politics of this world. If religion were understood as an actual practice of serving others, they wouldn’t be involved in statist politics or the institutional “churches.”

Just as a people who prepare themselves to seek God's Kingdom must repent of the statist ideology of the world, so they must also repent of receiving the socialist benefits of these kingdoms, which is to covet their neighbor's property and bring themselves into tax bondage for this sin. Godly men must repent of such covetous practices and build a charitable network of assistance for men instead.

One major false dichotomy in political theology is the idea that all those who reject worldly politics are slothful to seeking the Kingdom of God, while the only people who care about it will involve themselves in the politics of the world. This idea is completely false. The only true Kingdom-seekers are anti-statists, and statists are not seeking God's Kingdom at all.

Once we have become ideologically motivated to the anarchist Kingdom-politics of God, the great abolitionist plan of seeking God’s Kingdom eventually necessitates that we find other men to build with through real, on-the-ground evangelism that casts a wide net that works to find the sheep who hear the Lord’s voice and are ready to gather with you to serve each other and love their neighbors.

By failing to understand the political nature of gospels and making the salvation of the Lord into a purely heavenly and afterlife matter, men have been able to engage a false dichotomy where God’s Kingdom is not seen as a literal one to replace man’s kingdoms and where the latter are seen as necessary to salvation on earth. In the process, they have bought into the false gospels of statism.

When it is not understood that all social systems are theocratic or religion and that the true political spectrum is anarcho-theocracy to statist-theocracy, then it becomes possible to give support to the false dichotomy that one can have a “Christian” State or a “secular” State, when both these are just the myths that God’s true theocracy is statist or that non-theocratic statism is possible repeated.

The prevailing idea in Christianity is that the “true purpose” of the State is to act as God’s “ordained” institution for justice and law in society. A false dichotomy is then created where the State fulfills this role or is an “ungodly state.” The truth is that all States are ungodly and evil and that their only “ordained” purpose is bringing judgment upon the sinners who set them up.

One of the main ways that statists of all stripes are able to imagine that they can engage in statism without it contradicting their claims of being “religious” or “atheistic” is by maintaining a false dichotomy where the State is either “Christian” or “secular.” By tearing down this dichotomy, we can show that the “Christian statist” and the “secular statist” are mythical creatures.

Of a handful of scriptures that statists desperately seek to make a case for their wicked service and support for worldly empires as a Biblical one, one commonly corrupted one is for men to reference Isaiah’s answering of his God-given mission as supposedly akin to the devilish mission of joining the militaries or police force of human government.

The whole ministry of the Biblical prophets was one of rebuking the corrupt and unjust order that was being perpetuated by human rulers and the religious establishment that has always been in bed with the state rulers, all who have set themselves up against God. In this segment, we cover the books of the minor prophets first as a defense of this clear thesis.

It is commonly argued by self-called atheists that the existence of evils like sickness or political tyranny either disproves the existence of God or must just show that He is an arbitrary tyrant who doesn’t care about the prevalence of evil in our world. However, most of the evils in our world are a result of man’s open sin, which God has punished. They are not things that have come upon us undeservedly.

Some of the main themes of the Biblical prophets present us with a picture of the various phases of the political cycle that mankind has always been on, where statism corrupts a society, invites God’s judgment, and eventually destroys a people to teach them how to repent — all of which present a Christian Anarchist case for seeking God’s Kingdom instead.

Often through small things like lazily conflating the word “nations” in the Bible to mean “State,” so-called “Christian Nationalists” work to use the Great Commission and other scriptures like Psalm 33:12 to try and build a case for their worldly political agenda. These, however, are prooftexts for Christian Anarchism, not statism.

By showing that the prophets were persecuted by political rulers, the “religious” establishment elites, and the people themselves, for their warnings of judgment upon the sinful political orders of the day and all the injustices inherent to them, we can strengthen the case the ministry of the prophets was necessarily a political one that confronted and condemned the sins of statism.

In order to show that the divine mission given to the prophets was necessarily to rebuke statism and call people to repent from the idolatry and evils involved in supporting the man-made kingdoms of the world, we must also show that the prophets were directly confronting state rulers with this message of repentance and judgment.

In this series’ attempt to show that the prophets were necessarily rebuking statist societies, this article attempts to lay out the political scene that the prophets were preaching upon, so as to show that the corruptions and perversions of justice they had come upon, which could not be disconnected from the political systems of the day, were the cause for judgment.

The prophets make it abundantly clear that trusting in worldly systems of human government and their militaries, as idolatrous men still do today, is against the counsel of the Lord and a rejection of His Kingship. In this article, we begin to further the case that statism is the essence of sin and rebellion against God, and therefore a forbidden philosophy for the Christian to hold.

The failure to understand God’s use of state rulers as judgment against a people who have turned from the Lord as their King and ruler, which is particularly prominent in the books of the prophets, has had far reaching effects on the political theology of men today, who have adopted many of statist fallacies for not realizing the sense in which the State might be called “ordained” by God.

It is evident today, in both Christianity and outside it, that men are not very well-acquainted with the Biblical prophets — hence why they are not able to understand the political bondage we are in today as a result of the sin of trusting in human government and the divine judgment upon that sin, and still continue believing that this institution can save us from the evils it has brought.

Though it’s common in our “secular” age to ask for the logic or reasoning behind the case for a free society, men of God should be comfortable accepting the social laws of our world—our cause and effect universe—purely for coming from the mouth of God. We know that blessings come upon those who seek God’s Kingdom and curses befall those who set up man-made political systems because “thus saith the Lord.”

As anyone knows who has ever preached the true Gospel of the Kingdom of God, which is another Kingdom altogether from the false man-made political systems of the world, one is bound to encounter resistance both from the general public and the vast majority of professing Christians, both who buy into the false religion of statism. We must prepare for it as we seek God’s Kingdom.

In order to pursue the abolitionist cause and seek the Kingdom of God, men will have to abandon the statist philosophies and practices of the world, which apologized for the existence of human civil government and partook in their rituals like voting. They will have to renew their minds and abandon all the old fallacies they have heard about being “a citizen of two kingdoms” and seek God’s Kingdom alone.

The Gospel of the Kingdom of God—that Jesus has reconciled us to God and came to liberate us from the dominion of man over man and shares His Kingship with no other man—must be preached to both the people who have gotten themselves into bondage and the people who rule over them. This article contains a message at the end that you could send to a politician that you might have access to.

Though the prayers of most people today are probably much more oriented toward their personal lives or obtaining worldly luxuries, the prayers of men in the Bible were often way more focused on the political bondage we’re living under, repentance for the sins of idolatry that led to the captivity, and praying to God for salvation from our enemies.

For many Christians today, there is a strong aversion to earthly prosperity at all. This is in part due to a view of salvation and the gospel that shuns any earthly hopes to focus only on the spiritual and eternal. But we cannot ignore the many Biblical promises of real blessings of prosperity for those who seek God’s Kingdom. God wants us to prosper.

Our God-given purpose on this earth is to seek the Kingdom of God and live freely. But we have gone into captivity to men for our sin of idolatry and sloth to His ways. In order to take back our inheritance from the strangers who plunder it and begin to seek divine liberation from this Egyptian bondage, we must become radical and ideological for the Abolitionist cause.

It has been said that men choose between a “dangerous liberty” or a “peaceful slavery,” suggesting that it is better to have a State than to have an anarchist society. This is a false dichotomy. Political rule isn’t peaceful, and Liberty isn’t dangerous.

It is not emphasized enough just how much the political economy of Frederic Bastiat was in keeping with God's word and Spirit, when it cannot even be legitimately separated from the theological foundation on which he stood it upon. Arguably, what is needed today is a return of defending Liberty on the basis of it being God's natural order, as opposed to the sandy "secular" foundation it stands on today.

Whether a people are delivered by God from political bondage for repenting of their worldly ideology that upholds the existence of worldly rulers, or whether they are in bondage due to this sin of supporting them and suffering under the ramifications for their decision, God means both liberty and slavery to be a sign that men have either follow after Him or chased after false gods.

Despite the prophets using the metaphor of adulterers, prostitutes, and whores to describe a people like the majority of men in our world who idolize human government and their soldiers and police, few Christians have any grasp of this concept. This ignorance isn’t helped by the false pastors of the world who are statist adulterers themselves.

Men can either choose to make the Lord their King and live freely in a stateless society that He rules over, or they can make men their kings and live in a statist plunder society that dominates them and makes people into slaves. All true Christians must decidedly be anarchists as far as the kingdoms of men go.

David Chilton's book Paradise Restored is highly motivating work on eschatology that holds a lot of hope for turning men back toward working on the Kingdom of God and getting them out of the doom and gloom worldview that has sent them into despair. It is just what men need to be inspired into action who have been led to believe our situation down below is hopeless.

The philosophy of statism is ideological whoredom, where both rulers and supporters engage in an adulterous relationship with political power. While the average man doesn't need much help prostituting himself out to political power in his own distrust in the Lord, the rulers themselves also teach this statist harlotry in order to seduce others into political idolatry in order to secure their power.

When men whore themselves out to the statists of the world for protection and welfare, they find themselves living in bondage to human rulers for this sin of political adultery. When the inevitable evils of these men expand and the consequences of their whoredom become great enough, God hopes that men will see the need to repent and return to Him as their King.

The conspiracy to plunder humanity by evil men who work through the kingdoms of this world to hatch their plots against us and legitimize them under the name of “the law” is well-documented in Scripture. Indeed, one has not yet realized the depth of the global conspiracy unless they have seen this Biblical-spiritual component.

Notwithstanding its use as a pejorative that is intended to dismiss those who see through the political scheming in our world, conspiracy theory is a legitimate lens in which to view the world and its systems. We are ruled by evil men who plot against us and prey upon us. The Bible documents it.

Men go into bondage to human rulers due to sin, and are likewise liberated from this bondage when they repent from these sins. For the sinful ideology of statism, God allows human rulers to come upon people as a curse. But those who repent from this worldly philosophy are blessed with liberty.

The divine command to have no other gods than the Lord was nothing less than a commandment to not chase after the false gods of human government. Those who champion and vote for these false gods are therefore in disagreement with the commands of God, which can only be fulfilled by opposing human rulers.

Those who whore themselves out to human governments aren't merely adulterers to the Lord through some innocent idolatry for men. Rather, they are inevitably lusting after power, violence, bloodshed, injustice, corruption, and criminality, and all the other things that these political systems necessarily entail and perpetuate.

When men cheat on God with States and go whoring after militaries to protect them, they must expect to go into bondage to these men as a consequence for this adultery. The price men pay for prostituting themselves out to human rulers and lusting over them is to live in captivity to them.

Though Christians might often think of terms like adultery and whoredom to mean nothing more than spousal infidelity and sexual promiscuity, scripture often employs these terms in a metaphorical way to refer to the idolatry and sin of statism, where people cheat on God with human rulers and their political systems.

This is a book review of Jacques Ellul’s 1988 work titled “Anarchy and Christianity.”

When men believe that human governments are needed for protection from enemies, rather than trusting in God as their Savior, they will inevitably discover that the opposite results, and, as a punishment from God himself, will find themselves ruled by tyrants who hate them and plunder them for all their worth.

Since God’s salvation is very much about protecting His people from real-world enemies and freeing them from systems of Egyptian bondage, it is clear that trusting in the kingdoms of this world for protection, as men do anytime they claim human civil government is necessary to social order, is to abandon God’s salvation to trust in men as one’s “saviors.”

The popular idea of salvation in Christianity today is an almost purely otherworldly concept of the destination of our eternal soul in heaven, stripped of all hope for divine deliverance from our this-worldly enemies. If we look at God’s word, however, we see endless examples of God literally and physically saving His people from statist oppressors.

Without understanding what it means that human rulers can be “ordained” by God as His “servants,” people are likely to believe that human governments “serve” God in a positive sense of bringing “law and order” to society, when in fact they “serve” God by bringing lawlessness and disorder to a society as a form of judgment against statist sinners.

To buy into statist ideologies like socialism cannot be explained as mere economic ignorance, but more so that men are lost in sin. This is true of its malevolent practitioners as much as the lay advocates of such ideas. To explain this sin problem as mere economic ignorance is deficient. The spiritual deception that underlies these ideologies requires not more economic education, but for men to turn back to God.

One thing that keeps people participating in the systems of this world is the idea that other people are going to do it anyway and, therefore, we should do the same. This is nothing but worldly temptation. God’s people should be walking out of Egypt even if others demand to stay behind believing they can salvage their false and failing kingdoms.

We have sinfully believed that we needed human rulers to lord over us and provide alleged “public goods” in order to have social order, and we have found ourselves justly living in captivity for this defiance of God’s commands. It’s time to repent of the political systems and seek the Kingdom of God as our only hope.

Though the evil statist systems of the world function as a means of God’s judgment upon a sinful people who are foolish enough to set them up, they are nevertheless evil themselves and also come under judgment from God for their sins, which He once used to bring terror upon a people’s wicked works.

God made men to live freely under Him, not to be property of the State. Much to His dismay, however, our people have followed after the ways of men instead of the ways of the Lord, and we have found ourselves living in captivity to human rulers for our own iniquity and idolatry for human government.

The institutions that go by the name of a “church” today are nothing more than distractions that keep people from seeking the Kingdom of God, which has everything to do with seeking justice, freedom, and actually serving one another in brotherly love, and very little to do with the rituals that men have mistake for “worship.”

The Biblical truth that a people reap what they sow perfectly explains the Egyptian police state society we live under today, where sowing the wicked seeds of human civil government have done nothing but reap a predictably evil harvest. It’s time we repent from these evils and seek the Kingdom of God if we wish to turn back the curse of statism.

Going under human civil government to feed and protect you is a sin because it makes you an accomplice to the theft, murder, idolatry, and other violations of God’s law that these systems are based on. This sin is repaid with bondage, where men find themselves feeding a class of political parasites as a punishment for their refusal to be ruled by God.

Many Christians today neglect their responsibility to pursue justice on earth and focus more on personal salvation and the afterlife. Yet this very heavenly-minded abdication of responsibility is what has led to the great injustices of political rule that have come upon us today. They have forgotten that God desires us to seek justice, and have strayed from seeing it the longer these evils have continued.

It is not too common in modern Christianity to hear anyone emphasize God’s love of justice and His sorrowful view of the injustices that we have made in our world. But God hates the political plunder systems we live under today, and He calls us to seek true justice as part of our general seeking of His kingdom.

As evil as the system of human government is, it is only a reflection of our own evils, where we have handed over our Godly responsibilities to the kingdoms of men. For this grave error, we are punished with great injustices that prevail all throughout society that act as divine judgment upon a backward people.

Whenever men abdicate their godly responsibilities to one another and hand the administration of justice and law over to state rulers to monopolize and control it, these men are naturally able to turn it into an instrument of plunder, and the whole nature of law is perverted and turned into a weapon against the people they pretend to protect.

True followers of Christ must reject the State and its enforcement agents, who are regularly involved in oppressive and violent systems that contradict God's principles. Mere verbal claims of faith are insufficient proof of one's allegiance to God; genuine faith necessitates a transformation in behaviors, including a complete renunciation of roles that perpetrate systemic injustices. Repentance and a commitment to righteousness are essential for the servant of the Lord.

Many who profess to be followers of the Lord have drawn illegitimate exceptions to their faith when it comes to worldly institutions. Thinking of the Lord as nothing more than their soul-saver, they find it acceptable to turn to human rulers and soldiers to protect them, when this is actually a rebellion against God. God’s true people should trust in the Lord as their “national defense.”

Those who know just how much God hates statism are well aware of the anxious citation of Romans 13 by Christians to justify their own statolatry. This scripture has been historically manipulated to support tyranny. But did you know that church leaders have been trained by the government to use it as a weapon for gaining obedience from believers?

All States are born in sin and rebellion to God. When the definition of statism is arbitrarily limited to include only those political systems that exceed some arbitrary bounds for what a State is “supposed to be” doing, they ignore the inherent sin-nature of these systems and seek to reform them to their alleged bounds, rather than repent from them altogether and seek the Kingdom of God.

Although the prosperity of inflationist regimes may mask their underlying destruction and plunder for some time, all empires inevitably fall and come under judgment for their sin of theft, inflation, murder, and oppression. Those who want to survive the collapse must seek the Kingdom of God as the only alternative to the failing systems of men.

It is easy for men to be lured into the illusion of prosperity under man’s political systems, given that inflationary regimes may appear to offer great prosperity for some time. Since true prosperity and economic stability requires patience and faith in God, many people end up forsaking God for the perceived prosperity of Egypts and Romes, under the delusion that these plunder regimes can last forever.

The Israelites' longing to return to Egypt during their exodus parallels modern trust in the State. Those who lack faith in God turn back to human rulers to provide for them at the cost of their enslavement, and this lack of faith helps to empower the systems of man. Political bondage is made possible by men who believe socialist systems are the way to secure liberty and prosperity.

The temporary comforts of Egyptian-statist systems are usually sufficient to make men complacent to their bondage. Just as men before had failed to trust in God to provide for them, looking back to the alleged benefits of Egypt, so today they find it preferable to trust in States to deliver peace and prosperity than to put their faith in divine deliverance and providential provision, even though man’s systems are unsustainable.

Human government operates as a parasitic entity that thrives on wealth extraction through taxation that ultimately destroys economies and societies. Despite appearing prosperous due to its global economic dominance and the status of the U.S. dollar, the system is built on unsustainable practices of plunder and debt. Though a false prosperity masks underlying destruction for now, which has kept men hopeful, the U.S. faces an inevitable day of reckoning.

Sometimes the Spirit of the Lord has it that a long winded cry comes upon a man at the condition of political bondage which he lives under, and the longing to see the Kingdom of God appear.
