City suffers in Depression Era lack

From The Chronicle Tribune:

"Tax sale may be county’s largest
Property owners have until Sept. 16 to redeem land

The rights to hundreds of properties with delinquent taxes will be on the auctioning block next month, in the Grant County government tax sale.

So far, there are 1,550 parcels on the list to be auctioned. Grant County Treasurer Roger Bainbridge said people have until 4 p.m. Sept. 16 to pay off their property taxes and get them off the list before they can be auctioned in the Sept. 17 sale. After that, the owner can still redeem property by paying off back taxes and associated fees up to one year later."

Real stories like this defy the lies of local government. The city is in distress, and no positive spin by the Seybold regime will change that.

Who will get ahead in this time? The rich.

Pride

Pride has been called the "armor of hell". That is why our political protest do little good. Our government is full of its own knowledge, yet rejects Jah's wisdom.

When our government falls, it will be at the astonishment of those very men who have taken it down the course of destruction.

Where does the Present Path Lead?

The city justifies its new taxes. They are the result of foolish men believing they can do what ever they want. Marion's tax and spend policies, are death.


They lead to:

To a drop off into oblivion!

Still not for Uniforms

One problem the School uniforms solve. We don't see Kids showing underwear, or flesh.

As a whole the kids look pretty good, and the schools have allowed enough diversity in the uniforms to make them not so bad.

But in principle, I am still not for uniforms.

Marion Is a Failed City

I read of the Mayor's demands for more money for himself. This against the back drop of the hungry lining up at St. Martin's for some morsel of free food. This against the back drop of broken roads, and record unemployment.

While Indiana Wesleyan builds another new building, the poor lose their homes and now can't even find food.

Marion is a failed City. Religion is a demon.

Faith working in love is Jah's way.

Give us a New Mayor

The Mayor pushes for more raises, notably His. Even Alan Miller (IWU and Chronicle) the Mayor's cohort in extortion of monies from the people, does not support this latest bit of tax and spend Elitism.

From the Sunday (Seybold) Chronicle we notice even this "in the tank Paper", does not support Seybold on this. (note editorial Sunday Aug 16)

This Mayor believes he is more than justified in his bloated seventy-two thousand dollar salary. Infact he thinks he is worth more.

We now have a Loit. We now have trash tax. The horseleach spirit cries for more.

God give us a new Mayor.

Pro 30:15 The horseleach hath two daughters, [crying], Give, give. There are three [things that] are never satisfied, [yea], four [things] say not, [It is] enough:

The Real War in Marion

Eph 6:12 “ For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].”

Yes we see government greed, arrogant edicts, and lies in the city. But the real war is fought by Godly Spiritual men on another plain, in another realm.

No to Tax Hikes

I believe that almost all we see in our Government's meltdown, and the tendencies of local government toward tax and spend elitism is the working of a globalist agenda, and brought about through federal government hoops, and a conspiracy by our leadership in this Nation.

Although our local government is passing tax hikes and justifying the need by their idea of what is needed to run local government, I know that they are breaking the back of the citizen with this financial burden.

The tax and spend doctrine presently employed, has long been taught as a way to get ones needs met. This teaching comes from globalist elitist. This is the spirit of Mammon.

How much is enough? With this government, it is always a little bit more.

Selah

Godliness with contentment is great gain.

There is nothing Godly about our local government. They are oppressors of the people.

Let Your Spirit Rise

There is great oppression presently in the City. Lord, we ask for Your Spirit to arise!

New Government

It is obscene for city leaders to get raises while laying off other workers. This city needs new government. The arrogance of the leadership in this city is becoming historically note-able such as that which led Nazi Germany to believe they were the people with the "right", to rule all others.

When Godly leadership is in office, the people rejoice.

This City is Becoming more Hellish Every Day

The Marion Community School's fascist uniform policy is causing many problems as I said it would. Many can't even find uniforms that meet this Fascist policy. I E-mailed Kyle Kirby concerning this policy and he promptly spread my private E mail around, causing an unjust backlash.

This is failure of the highest magnitude.

This city with its tax and control policies is fascist. The Police State School uniforms are wrong. They may even be un-Constitutional.

No need for the city Government to tell us to go to Hell when we disagree with their fiat edicts. They have already made our life hell.

From James Oliver, as printed in the Marion Chronicle in the early Nineties:

Years ago Dr. James Oliver wrote an article which was printed in the Marion Chronicle. This is that article and is from a day gone by, a day when the Chronicle actually printed truth.

“Whose right will be lost next?

The Declaration of Independence is the charter upon which our government is founded. The second paragraph state, ‘We hold these truths to be self Evident, 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 their rights Government are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed’.

The Constitution of the United States, the law under which our government operates to secure these rights for us, states in the Preamble: “WE THE PEOPLE” of the United States…. do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America”

According to the preamble, the ultimate power to govern in this country resides in WE THE PEOPLE, not Congress, not the president or the courts. ARTICLE 1 Section 1 states: “All legislative power herein granted shall be vested in the Congress of the United States. “Neither shall be vested in a Congress of the United States.” Neither the executive not the judicial branch ahas any legislative power! Any legislative act by either of the branch cannot be enforced as law.

The following definitions are taken from the American Heritage Dictionary, Second College Edition 1985.
Murder: The unlawful killing of one human being by another.
Person: A human being or organization with legal rights and duties.
Human Being: A member of the genus Homo and of the Species Sapiens.

The only living example of the Homo Sapiens is Modern man. Modern man is defined biologically as a living organism whose cells contain human DNA.

Any person can be declared a non-person and lose his or her legal rights, if that person is convicted, by a jury of a crime that is punishable by death The act of declaring a person a non-person is called attainder. This act takes away all of the person legal rights and allows that person to be executed. Since this action is the result of a legal act, it is not murder.

In many countries a person can be declared a non-person by an act of the government. This type of act is called a bill of attainder and is illegal in all jurisdictions in the United States. The American Heritage Dictionary defines a bill of Attainder as: A legislative act pronouncing a person guilty of a crime, without trial and subjecting him or her to capital punishment and attainder.” The Constitution of The United States of America in Article 1, Section 9,, (laws that Congress cannot enact), the third paragraph states, “No bill of attainder shall be passed.: In the same Article Section 10 it states: “No State Shall…Pass any bill of Attainder.”

Since the executive and the judicial branches of the US government do not have the power to enact legislation, no bill of Attainder can be enacted in this country. However in Roe vs. Wade the Supreme Court, in direct defiance of the Constitution has enacted a bill of attainder against any and all living unborn human beings, classifying them as Non-persons, and subjecting them to Attainder so that they can be legally executed. Thus in the United States, by an illegal act of the Supreme Court, abortion is not considered murder, and one group of human beings no longer has an unalienable right to life. Who will be the next group to lose this right?

Thank you Dr. Oliver

Restoration

Harvest time is here. Judgment for the wicked, restoration for the just. May we be found just. The Lord has said: "Lean not to your own understanding". He is forming and reforming the way.

We have seen the result of lives lived for self. That which is sewn to the wind will bring a whirlwind. That which is faith working in love will bring life.

Cut Spending

We see in the CT, the City is considering spending cuts. We applaud this. We thank Mr. Mcwirt and the County Council for being the first to discuss this as they gave a good example for the City Council to follow.

Pride

I recently read an article from the editor of a local newspaper in which he pointed out a flaw which was true about a certain segment of bloggers. He thought them to not be factual. The problem is he discredited all bloggers by his judgment of what some may be guilty of. His presupposition was that his paper was more qualified to speak of local events then the Internet bloggers. I totally disagree with what he said, and see it as a judgment being made from one who may not understand the nature of man's pride.

All men tend toward the sin of pride because it is the one sin we can sin that makes us feel better about ourselves. Pride in men, seldom condemns its habitation.

There is in this day, an abundance of pride in man. I do not speak here of the pride we talk of when we say a man takes pride in His work, meaning he is quality minded toward it. I speak of the pride the bible condemns as being destructive in the three verses here listed.

Psa 10:2 The wicked in [his] pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
Pro 11:2 [When] pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly [is] wisdom.
Pro 16:18 Pride [goeth] before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

Pride and wickedness go hand in hand. In fact pride always leads to a fall. It is a man’s own devices that ensnare him through pride. Proud men oppress others. All oppression starts with pride.

On my blog Emmausteacher, I have and will continue to speak much of the religious spirit. The religious spirit has two main ingredients: They are, pride and fear. Pride and fear are truly two great enemies we, "the called out of Jah", need to overcome, if we will ever live differently than the pagans.

If you are interested in more understanding of pride, please seek it out on that blog. I will be writing more on it in the future.
