ha you dont think?
why does the whole world wanna live in america then?

Because the whole world is Falsely taught America is A Democracy.
And the whole world Falsely believes a Democracy form of Government means:
* If you want to Work you can...
* If you do not want to Work...

Housing, Food, Electricity, Water, Gas, clothing, transportation, Healthcare, Education, childcare, Elderly care, is:
FREE!

Glory to God,
Taken

@theefaith wasn't France a Christian nation back when it gave the statue of liberty to USA?

And when a Christian looks at the statue of Liberty, could it be a symbol that we have liberty in Christ Jesus? Set free from sin.

The Statue of Liberty is not a symbol of Christianity. It's a symbol of standing for the Principle of Liberty.

Glory to God,
Taken

PS...anyone with an ounce of common sense Knows Countries are referred to in the Female sense...thus as a model for Liberty for a Country, a Female form, the Artist chose, is most appropriate.

I have always seen the Statue of Liberty as a symbol of freedom, and people can view the statue however they want. But the statue has a history, and I think it's important to understand what the creator of the statue had in mind--from its inception to its dedication.

According to an article in USA Today,

The National Park Service notes that "classical images of liberty are often depicted in a female form. The statue was modeled after Libertas, the Roman goddess of liberty." The Roman version is frequently depicted wearing a Phrygian cap, traditionally worn by freed Roman slaves.

Source: Fact check: U.S. didn't reject Statue of Liberty that honored slaves
There are many symbols on and around the statue that point to this goddess, and goddess worship is tied to these symbols. I think this is something that Christians should be aware of, or I wouldn't be wasting my time posting in this thread.

Hmmm, thanks for the info.

A lot of these ancient pagan religions are just about extinct it seems, whether if it be ancient Greek, Roman, Egyptian or Norse religions.

Yeah, goddess worship would seem to be extinct, but do an Internet search, and you will see that it is not.

Freemasons is a brotherhood...
So what?
You don't have an interest in them Don't join.
Shriners,
Boy Scouts,
Scottish Rites,
Sports Teams,
Firemen,
Policemen,
Iron workers, brothers of the hook,
Christian,
Islam,
Pirates,
Mafia,
Bowling Leagues,
Chefs,
Farming,
Engineering,
Scientists,
Blah, blah, blah, ...

There are hundreds and hundreds of Groups A FREE person can join at his own election.

Not ONE group Built or Established America!
Thousands of people from all walks of life and involved in all kinds of private interests have contributed their Time, Talents, Efforts, in American Building and Defenses.

You decide your own God, and afford every other the Same option.
Just don't dictate what others have Chosen.

IF you think PAGANS have a Monopoly or Patent on Art, Symbols, and such, you are sadly mistaken.

People are not that inventative...They gleen ideas from things they've heard and seen.

You think the Lesbians Clever in their Symbol of a Rainbow?...that is Gods Symbol to never cause another World wide Flood.

It is corrupt to redefine an others original Intent, and attribute their intent to their corrupt redefining.

And BTW if you studied the Founders, and Understood what a Republic form of Government is, and Why that Was Chosen, And The Parallel of Early Laws and Documents TO Scripture...you might understand ...
That America was not Established on A Religion...but That Biblical PRINCIPLES, were certainly the model, and a Republic was the closest thing to a man made Government, that reflected Gods Intended Government on Earth, in the Future.

Glory to God,
Taken

they are robbers who stole are birthright to a catholic king and queen who rule with justice in the place of Jesus Christ the King and Mary our heavenly queen!

you do not have religious liberty to choose your God and your religion!

1st commandment I am the Lord your God, you shall have no other Gods before me!

You have no idea what you are talking about.

Freemasons stole No ones Birthright!
What nonsense is that?

Catholic Kings and Catholic Queens are appointed to Rule in place of Jesus Christ?

Appointed by Whom?

Every Man choosing to join the Fraternity of Freemasonary, must Declare their Allegience to a Power HIGHER than a man.

Do you? Or is your Hightest Power
A man king, a woman queen, or perhaps a pope?

you do not have religious liberty to choose your God and your religion!

Hogwash! Men have Freewill TO Choose their religions and god....!
Have you missed World History?
Are you uninformed, people Do choose their own religions and gods, all day long!

1st commandment I am the Lord your God, you shall have no other Gods before me!

And? You think Every person adheres to the Bible?

You don't. You just said: That ...

birthright to a catholic king and queen who rule with justice in the place of Jesus Christ the King and Mary our heavenly queen!

Jesus did not Appoint kings or queens in His PLACE to RULE people.

the rebellion started with recognizing a pope, eh

God always establishes order in obedience to hierarchical authority!

The angelic order!
The church order!
The family order!
The civil order!

All require obedience to hierarchical authority!

The church is not a democracy but a kingdom!

While some believers in churches are appointed to places of authority, Jesus made it clear that His followers are not to lord it over one another, but they are to see themselves as servants because Jesus Christ Himself came as a servant.

Matthew 20:25-28

So you prefer tyranny to liberty?
Explains a lot.

Our liberty is in obedience to Christ!

and to His church!

and to the civil king!

Jesus said obey the authority of the successors of Moses mt 23 and this power and authority was given by Christ to Peter, the apostles and their successors, mt 16:18 this same authority and power must be obeyed!

mt 28:18-20 all authority is given to Peter, the apostles, and their successors requiring obedience, rom 1:5 obedience to the faith!
And Jesus say to Peter, the apostles, and their successors: behold I am with you even until the end of the world!!!
So the apostles have to remain until the end!

Lk 10:16 He who hears you hears me...

John 13:20
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

Rom 13 resisting the authority and f the king results in damnation???

ok well you might review 1 Samuel 8 first off, and

i know the wolves will rush in as soon as i leave, not sparing the flock

and no offense but you are repeating yourself, gushing out your programming now i think; for all you know Christ sent me to you, right here?
you prefer spiritual and moral anarchy?
well i think a pretty good arg can be made from Scripture that Yah prefers that, but im sure "Anarchy" has been made into a dirty word for you, too? Conflated with Chaos, surely? Plus what i prefer is irrelevant anyway, yes, i would likely prefer a king to fight my battles too, but a Christian has only One High Priest imo, wadr

The church is not a democracy but a kingdom!
yes, and the pope clearly has no place in it, sorry
and i really like this pope too

Then the end will come, when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power.

doesnt mean i cant recognize and follow just laws though. Anarchy is not "no rules," but "no rulers" right. Why you arent on a forum among your own culture i could not even begin to guess, but fwiw there is lots of Scripture that they will never repeat to you, you gotta find it yourself?

i mean personally im glad they let Catholics in here, so Christians can get a better idea of what they are in for in seeking Death, More Abundantly, but for your sake i would sure think you would be more at home among other Catholics?

youve said that like five times now, still doesnt make it all true ok
vain repetitions will not serve you any wadr
yes, your mantra is made clear, ty

maybe go read 1 Samuel 8 and give us your thoughts--yours, not your pastors, if you would--on that?
Catholicism is fascism, i mean they are even in bed together?
