IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that 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 these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.

Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor. source

Trump Attempts To Purchase A Republican Midterm Victory With A ‘$5,000 Dividend Promise’ Paid For By The Same American Taxpayers He Is Asking To Vote

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Where Are The DOGE Checks, Tariff Rebates, $2 Gas And Cheaper Groceries Donald Trump Promised Before Unveiling His New $5,000 Dividend last night?

Donald Trump has returned to the political stage with yet another spectacular promise of free money, this time pledging a $5,000 “Trump Dividend” to every American adult—but only if Republicans retain control of Congress in November. That is not an economic plan; it is an election-year cash inducement with Trump’s name stamped across it. Washington is already drowning beneath more than $40 trillion in debt, yet Trump is dangling a payout that could cost approximately $1.3 trillion without explaining where the money will come from. The message could hardly be more blatant: give Republicans your vote, and Trump says he will give you a check purchased with your own tax dollars. Now we see Donald Trump for who he really is, a shameless conman who will say anything, do anything, and promise anything to retain power. Please see the following 9 unfulfilled promises he has made over the past 18 months.

“I said in my haste, All men are liars.” Psalms 116:11 (KJB)

But before Americans begin spending this imaginary $5,000, perhaps we should ask what happened to all the previous promises. Where are the DOGE dividend checks? Where are the tariff rebate checks? Where is the 10% cap on credit-card interest? Where are the dramatically lower interest rates, cheaper groceries, lower electricity bills and $2 gasoline? Wait, I know! 4D Chess and the Art of the Deal!

I’M STILL WAITING FOR…
1 THE DOGE DIVIDEND CHECKS
2 THE TARIFF REBATE CHECKS
3 LOWER ENERGY PRICES
4 THE 10% CAP ON CREDIT-CARD INTEREST
5 DRUGS THAT ARE “1,000–1,500% CHEAPER”
6 $2-A-GALLON GAS
7 CHEAPER GROCERIES
8 LOWER INTEREST RATES
9 A “GREAT HEALTHCARE PLAN” THAT ACTUALLY BECOMES LAW
Americans were told prescription drugs would become “1,000 to 1,500% cheaper,” a mathematical impossibility, while Trump’s so-called “Great Healthcare Plan” remains largely a collection of proposals waiting for Congress to act. Even where limited drug discounts have materialized, they bear little resemblance to the sweeping, fantastic claims repeatedly made from the podium. Liar, liar, pants on fire, Donnie.

This has become the Trump political formula: announce something enormous, attach his name to it, dominate the headlines and then move on before anyone asks whether it ever happened. The check is always “coming,” the prices are always “about to fall,” the healthcare plan is always just around the corner, and prosperity is always one more Republican election victory away. Now, with gasoline averaging more than $4 nationally and working Americans still being crushed by food, housing, insurance and borrowing costs, Trump is attempting to replace yesterday’s unfulfilled promises with an even bigger one. America does not need another campaign-show “dividend.” It needs accountability for the promises already made, and results that exist somewhere outside a Trump speech.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: How The ‘Strange Fire’ Of Azusa Street, Oral Roberts And The Charismatic Movement Replaced The Authority Of Scripture Part 1

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

From Azusa Street To Kathryn Krick: How The Strange Fire Of The Modern Charismatic Movement Replaced The Authority Of Scripture With Signs, Wonders And Seducing Spirits

The modern Charismatic movement began at Azusa Street by elevating supernatural experience above the written word of God. Charles Parham declared tongues to be the evidence of receiving the Holy Ghost; William Seymour carried that teaching into the 1906 Azusa Street Revival; and Aimee Semple McPherson later joined Pentecostal manifestations to celebrity, theatrical production and mass media. After World War II, William Branham popularized the “anointed man” claiming angelic visitations and supernatural discernment, while Oral Roberts transformed the healing tent into a television empire and turned miracles into merchandise through “seed-faith.” What began as emotional manifestations had become a profitable religious industry in which the preacher possessed the anointing, the audience supplied the money and the sick were blamed when the promised miracle failed.

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1 (KJB)

The counterfeit continued mutating. The 1948 Latter Rain movement announced the restoration of modern apostles and prophets; the Charismatic Renewal carried tongues and manifestations into Protestant denominations and Roman Catholicism; Word of Faith preachers such as Kenneth Hagin and Kenneth Copeland turned faith into a force and giving into a formula for prosperity; Toronto and Brownsville normalized shaking, screaming, falling and uncontrolled behavior as evidence of revival; and the New Apostolic Reformation combined restored apostles, private revelation, territorial spirits, deliverance, Seven Mountain dominionism and Christian Nationalism into a global religious network. Through every stage, the same deadly exchange was taking place: “What saith the scripture?” was replaced by “What did you feel?” and the authority of the Bible was surrendered to whoever claimed to possess the newest prophecy, impartation or anointing.

Kathryn Krick is not a strange departure from that history—she is its logical conclusion. Azusa Street now has a smartphone, the healing tent has become a viral video, the prayer cloth has become an online course, and the travelling faith healer has become a social-media “apostle” commanding demons before millions of viewers. From Parham and Seymour to Branham, Roberts, Copeland, Bethel and Krick, the faces and technology have changed, but the spirit remains the same: another Jesus, another spirit and another gospel wrapped in signs, wonders and Christian vocabulary. The modern Charismatic movement promises believers more power while quietly removing the only authority capable of exposing the counterfeit—the preserved, inspired and infallible word of God. The fire that began on Azusa Street is still burning, but Christians had better test the spirits before they call the fire holy. Because it’s not.

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we show you the strange fire and the counterfeit signs, miracles, wonders and seducing spirits of the Charismatic Movement. This is Part 1 in a series.

Chaplain Turner At The Volusia Regional Juvenile Detention Center In Florida Wants To Give A Bible To Every One Of The Youths Placed In His Charge

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Doors Are Open At Volusia Regional Juvenile Detention Center As Bibles Behind Bars Prepares To Reach Young Inmates With The Word Of God

The Volusia Regional Juvenile Detention Center may officially be listed as a 50-bed facility, but Chaplain Turner tells us that on a normal day he is ministering to somewhere between 60 and 75 young people at a time. These are teenagers as young as 12-years old and young adults who have already found themselves on the wrong side of the law, many of them frightened, angry, confused, and facing consequences they never imagined would come so quickly. But right there, behind locked doors and concrete walls, God has opened a tremendous door for the gospel of the grace of God. Chaplain Turner has asked us to help him put a Bible into the hands of every single youth in his charge, and that is exactly the kind of mission Bibles Behind Bars was created for.

“Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.” Psalm 119:9 (KJB)

A teenager walks into detention frightened, angry, facing charges, perhaps wondering what is going to happen to his life — and waiting there is a chaplain who wants to put a King James Bible into his hands that we provided. With a daily population of 60 to 75 youths and hundreds passing through the facility over the course of a year, this has the potential to become a continuing pipeline of King James Bibles into the hands of young people at one of the most critical crossroads of their lives. Some of these youths may never have owned a Bible, never have heard a clear presentation of the gospel and many have families who have completely given up on them. But God has not closed the door, and neither should we. Let’s flood the Volusia Regional Juvenile Detention Center with enough Bibles for all of the, come help us!!

If God has prospered you, please take a moment to click on the donate button to help us in this monumental task of providing King James Bibles, New Testaments, scripture portions, gospel tracts as well as Spanish Bibles to inmates in jails and prisons from Florida to Alaska, and every state in between. We need your prayers, we need your generous financial support, and we need you to stand with us in the closing days of the Church Age. Thank you so very much, TO THE FIGHT!!!
