The Natural Congregation of Yahweh is what the secular world, modern traditional 'Christians',

and the modern 'Jews', would phrase as, "The Natural Church of God"

Natural Commerce 5^th Edition Content: Part I:

Introduction:

The Natural Congregation of Yahweh has been continuously up-dating the pages of the Natural Commerce section of the web-site, in an effort to keep up with the ever-growing knowledge base that is available to our members willing to share with us. At the time of writing this introduction, the 7^th Anniversary Edition of our book, “A New Mind!” was already available on-line with its all new and remarkable material contained Natural Commerce section on-line and in the Companion book, “Natural Commerce”.

 By popular demand of many of our members, this prior version of our Natural Commerce material, the "5th Edition", which includes virtually everything that we have ever published on these issues up to the point when we replaced it with the all new 7^th Edition material, is now available once again.

 Our members have indicated to us that to fully understand and appreciate the application and implications of the 7^th Edition material is difficult for many, without having the prior, almost tutorial-like information of the 5^th Edition material to draw from. Please be cautioned that this material has been left in it’s original form and content notwithstanding that in some instances current knowledge may have surpassed the accuracy of certain portions of it. So, here it is, in an easy to read, down-loadable format, freely available once again! We hope you find it helpful on your journey toward truth!

 Please note that this material was originally written while we were operating under the name of the “Natural Church of God”, and retains all of the inherent grammar and name errors of that era. For example you may still find the words, God and Lord, where they should be replaced with Yahweh or Yah'shua, and the word church where it should be congregation, and the phrase "the Holy Spirit" where it should be "His Holy Spirit", and so on.     TOP ^

NATURAL COMMERCE - Monopoly!

"Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's." (Matt. 22:21) Other passages in the Bible tell us that although we are to "be IN the world", we shall not "be OF the world". So how are we to conduct ourselves in this modern world such that we are not "of" the world and that we are able to render "unto God the things that are God's"? Well, we must first pay a lot of attention to what things are NATURAL, or God-given and what things are un-Natural, or man-made.

WHAT: 1. Not unlike a box containing a game of monopoly, our "system" of "commerce" is man-made. It is a "constructed", un-Natural device to facilitate our "exchange" of goods and services and comes with rules. When you fully understand these rules, and specifically how "YOU" can play within the prescribed rules of the game, then you can not only have a lot of fun playing monopoly, but you also have a chance at winning. Real life "commerce" is precisely the same.

 2. Remember the monopoly game. If you were one of four players playing the game and you were the only one that did not fully understand the rules, do you honestly think you would have a fair chance at winning? Oh, and as to "fair", the "law" provides that pursuant to "law", ignorance is not an excuse, hence all is fair. Just like in monopoly, this same rule applies. If you do not exercise your "rights" pursuant to the rules to collect rent for example, then you are "deemed" to have "forfeited" them! 

 3. If you were one of the remaining three players that new the rules would you complain? Well, not if you wrote the rules too! Why not? Because you also know that you wrote the rule that provides that pursuant to these "un-Natural" or constructed rules, your just rights as a "PLAYER" are subjective, and totally your own personal responsibility. In other words, if you did not read the rules, then shame on you! IN MONOPOLY AND IN REAL LIFE COMMERCE, THE RULES ARE NOT SECRET, BUT THEY MAY OFTEN BE OBSCURE, OR UNKNOWN to participants! 

 4. When YOU play monopoly, one of the first things you do is to choose a "man"; a little object to pick up and place on your landing spaces as you "play". For some reason, it is always referred to as your "man". Your man, like the others, receives some currency to initiate the game. This "money" is placed into "circulation" by the "bank". One of the REAL players (outside of the box) agrees to "act" the part of the "banker". All of the little "men", or players, pay into or receive money from the bank as the game proceeds.

5. Typically, when the four players finish the "game", one has won, two have done alright and one has lost. BUT, the actual game, the entire box is "owned" by someone. This "owner", this "principal" has every right to take the entire game and contents into his "private" possession. The prior "public" players have enjoyed only temporary rights to "use" the contents of the box while the game was being played. No matter how much "money" any of the "players", or even the "bank" may have "controlled" for the duration of the "game", the entire game, "money" and all, belongs to the REAL LIVE OWNER, NATURALLY!

WHY: 1. Step from the monopoly board to the "real", but un-Natural game of commerce. Its not much different, just bigger. We are all "public" players in the game of commerce. We are all entitled to enjoy the temporary rights to "use" the contents of the game; the money, the produce, etc. And this is all good.

 2. "Commercial Contracts" are created every time we "engage" in commerce, according to its "rules". "Commerce", loosely defined for purposes of this essay, means almost any type of human "interaction", not merely those kinds of interaction that refer to "economic" commerce, although they too are included. To engage in commerce, simply means to "ask" or "answer" a question, to "present" or "return" a contract; to "offer" or to "accept" virtually anything. It may be termed the "verbal" or "physical" "EXCHANGE" of goods or services or "thoughts". Any such exchange, is a "Commercial Contract".

 3. Another aspect of "commerce" that is fundamental to understanding OUR role in it, is that it is a "construction" that refers entirely to the "man-made", or un-Natural "side" of our intercourse. It is not what was made for us by God, rather, it is what we devised as a "tool" for ourselves to facilitate the "free" exchange of our efforts, or the "barter" of our "commercial" efforts; our "productivity". Conversely, the "Natural" side of our intercourse starts with "communication". Although we may contrive "what" we say, the "ability" to say it; to communicate, is Natural.

 4. A further aspect of any "commercial transaction", is the prerequisite of "participation" of two or more "parties". A Natural party's "interest" in a commercial matter, is that party's "equity" in that matter. Commerce has been crafted such that measurable, or definable "economic equity" must be present, or deemed to be present within the "commercial transaction", without exception. 

 5. In order to have an "interest" in a matter, a "Natural" principal party with a conscience; with the requisite volition to "know" that they have an "interest" in equity is also required. The "players"; the little "men" in the game of monopoly, have no "equity", principally because they have no volition, or no way of knowing whether they have equity or not. Only the REAL men on the outside of the box know their temporary "interest" in the equity during the game, and only the OWNER of the box, has any real "equity". 

 6. "Resolution" of disputes in commerce, are administered by "courts". In the man-made, un-Natural system of commerce, its originators recognized the two separate and distinct aspects of commerce that might lead to a need for "resolution". Although commerce is designed to refer to all human intercourse, it does not serve to unilaterally "merge" our "Natural" intercourse with our "economic" intercourse, hence we have courts (and claims) of "Natural" equity and courts (and claims) of "un-Natural" law.

WHO: 1. It is vital that we appreciate "who" we are in terms of any Commercial Contract. We must always "act" in commerce, in such a way as to maintain our status as a Natural "principal party" with volition. Only Natural principal parties with conscience may conduct commerce (offer or accept) between one another, or on behalf of their corporate entity(s). All others are merely "witnesses" to the event, or vehicles of convenience, or non-participants.

 2. As a Natural principal party with conscience, only we can have "interest" in a matter. The interest can be either "Natural" by its absolute Nature (a pound of gold, a cow, etc.), referring to "Natural" or "God-given law", or the interest can be "un-Natural" and economic referring to "verbal", or "civil law", wherein the equity is subjective.

 3. Absolute, or "Natural" equity always precedes subjective, or "civil" equity in law. It does not supersede, it precedes. It comes first, meaning that unless the "principals" with conscience and with knowledge of their "interest" have been first established, the less weightier matters of verbal law cannot be dealt with appropriately. After all, if the court did not have full understanding of "who" the principals were and what their "equity" claim was, and consequently, "who" had a "right" to be there, then any adjudication of the "law' would be merely a "guess", or possibly a "contrivance" based upon "assumption" or "presumption".

HOW: 1. Long ago, about the same time as our gold-backed money was replaced with human resource backed money, our "Natural" and "Common-Law" courts were merged into what is now referred to as one style of proceeding which may be conducted in either of our "Civil" or "Criminal" courts. Civil and Criminal courts are still bound to deal with matters of Natural equity and Civil law, but they have changed their obligation of "disclosure". Now, if you do not know of and exercise your own "right" to first have the court determine your Natural "principal" rights in the matter, you fall straight into "law" by default of process.

2. Your "lawyer" will not advise you because he CANNOT! He is a "law"yer, not an advisor as to Nature or as to your "principal" status. A lawyer by definition is an expert at understanding and manipulation of words. The "Natural rights" of a Natural, live principal party, are absolute by definition and are not subject to manipulation or interpretation. The judge is there to adjudicate the "commercial transaction", not to give advice so he also lets you "accept" their offer to be tried at "law", on the presumption that you have assumed the correctness of the principal roles of yourself and your "opponent". This presumption also embodies the further presumptions that you have either; "accepted" the "equity" and "right" of your opponent to be there as "principal" as well, or that you have "voluntarily" forfeited your Natural rights.

 3. There are many ways to stay in the "Natural Rights" claim in equity as "principal party" process, and not fall victim to the "law". These all have the common element of "offer and acceptance". When this is understood and participation in court is limited to questions concerning matters of Natural "equity", you will never loose at law because the court will never be able to proceed from equity into matters of "law".

KNOWING: 1. "Money". It exists! It is very real and it is very valuable! Money used to be backed only by gold. Gold has a limited value in "utility". Now money is backed by the real live NATURAL people of a nation. I don't' know about you, but I am priceless! Hence my value is infinitely greater than any quantity of gold. If you and I; we, are backing the money, it is now worth much more than when it was backed with mere gold. Otherwise why would the "banks" be so interested in "getting" so much of it from us?

2. "Public Man", or straw man or TIN (Tax payer Identification Number) man, are all names for the "un-Natural" corporate entity (with a registered name similar to our own name, although usually in all capitals) thoughtfully created for each of us by the government. Because we chose to "act" as a government, which collectively decided to "make" the un-Natural system of commerce, we also wisely chose to make an "un-Natural" "man", or corporate entity to conduct this commerce on our respective behalves. We even created rules that state only corporate entities can conduct commerce, and that an all capital letter name shall designate a corporate entity - OUR PERSONA! 

3. Our government (us) also wisely appointed each of us living, Natural beings as trustees and beneficiaries for our own personal "straw men" entities. They just "forgot" to tell us about it! This means that not only are we responsible for the "public man" conducting commerce, we are also the "beneficiary" of all of its efforts (just like the little "men" in the monopoly game). We are the "principal" with the conscience and with the "equity". We OWN OUR PERSONA (the straw man corporate entity, which has a name very similar to ours, only written in all capital letters). Like monopoly, we OWN the whole "game" of "commerce", money and all! GOD GAVE US THIS LAND AND ITS RESOURCES FREE! There was no I.O.U. attached!

4. An important distinction between "private" and "public" is this: Only a live Natural man has "private" rights and God-given rights. A public persona (straw man) has public "obligations" in lieu of "rights". Live people may choose to operate "privately" and pursuant to God's laws, while public personas must operate "publicly", pursuant to commercial law.

5. "Public Debt", is a phrase that gets a lot of unjust attention. When the public debt is expressed in dollars, and then as so many dollars per (public) "persona", it makes many Natural "people" feel hopeless because they mistakenly believe two things about it: first that "they" will never be able to "pay" such a debt, and second, that the debt is owed by them to some third party (banker). 

6. Back to "money". It came into being because men recognized it was the most efficient method to keep track of commercial economic exchanges within our free barter system of "commerce". Men "created" it.

7. WE, under auspices of our then government, issued Federal Government Bonds, backed by the Natural "live people" (Human Resources); the cumulative "energy" or worth of all the people. These Bonds have tremendous REAL value in equity. We then put an "arbitrary" denominated value to the Bond and issued "currency" in these denominations. An equal amount of the smaller denominated currency notes and/or account credit balances on a dollar per dollar basis for the value of the Bond were issued. Hence the "dollars" have tremendous REAL value EQUAL to the BOND. If we say "money" has no value, then we are effectively saying that the Bond has no value and if the Bond has no value, then we as live human beings have no value. (Inflation is simply the "issuing" of more dollars without any corresponding increase in the Bond.)

 8. An important aspect of money, is its "supply". Money, after being issued, or "credited" against the Bond is "loaned" into our system of commerce. ALL money, whether in cash form or account credit form, has EQUAL value and was "loaned" into circulation. Ostensibly, this "loaning" is to provide incentive for productivity. The more industrious persona would achieve a better "credit" rating against the Bond, because of his higher productivity, and the lazy man accordingly. "Supply" is arbitrarily set by us (our government) by guessing at the total productivity in a given year and making sure there is an amount of money available that would allow the "exchange" of that entire productivity, plus the exchange of all residual (non-consumed) productivity that we continue to enjoy. So far, in terms of how the system, or "game" of commerce was designed, these are all good and favourable methods.

9. A first fault in OUR system of commerce revolves around "interest". When all money required to "function at cost" as related to productivity is required to be loaned into circulation, to facilitate the exchanges of that productivity, there is no source for the allowance of interest payments. More productivity is required to generate the issue of more money to pay the interest, but more money is also required to provide for the exchange of the increased productivity, which requires more interest and so on. This is the first major flaw in OUR current money supply system that we should have OUR government remedy.

 10. The second "problem" with OUR system revolves around OUR own ignorance of "banking". We (our government) also wisely decided to have an independent "public agency", typically called the "bankers" agency set up to act as fiduciary repository for OUR "private" Bond and to issue OUR money and administer the loaning of OUR money into circulation. Clever bankers, believing that they could take advantage of OUR "ignorance" of the rules, have accepted this appointment, and abused it horrendously. 

 11. Remember where most Natural "people" mistakenly believe that THEY owe their respective portion of the National Debt to some banker? Well, they also believe that when their public man (persona) "borrows" money through the banking system, that "they" as the Natural man, owe it back to the "bank" that administered the loan. What they do not understand is that the bank has no "equity" in the loan, they are purely and simply the "administrator" of the account and therefore only entitled to normal account fees and charges. 

 12. The "interest" must return together with the principal, to the "equity provider", the OWNER of the Bond which backed the currency issue that was the substance of the loan. WE are the PRIVATE OWNERS of the Bond. We own the whole game! All interest and principal payments MUST come to us after deducting acceptable "administration" fees, otherwise the bank has committed theft/fraud by conversion of OUR equitable asset. We are the Human Resources of the Nation and we OWN the Natural Resources of the Nation, because God freely GAVE them to us!

SOLUTION: 1. Solution is easy. There is NO MONEY IN CIRCULATION THAT WAS NOT LOANED INTO IT. All money and account credit balances were loaned into existence. And the CREDITOR for ALL original loans, hence all existing money and account credit balances, is you and I. Any challenge offered by the bank can be readily "accepted" by us. We have the only "equity" in the transaction, and they have none, because in any banking/loan transaction, the bank has ALWAYS loaned us access to OUR own money. Our "public man", or persona is the "borrower" and we, as the "private" Natural human beings are the CREDITORS behind the Bond. 

2. Because it is "un-Natural" all commerce is conducted by equally un-Natural corporate personas, and it is conducted "publicly". Our public personas, under our trusteeship, operate "public" accounts administered by the bank. Because all loan proceeds and "repayments" of money or credit into the banking system from our "public man" are in truth supposed to go to OUR credit as the "private" Bond holder, (rather than being "scooped" in the middle by the bank) we can also operate an account at the bank on the "private" side. We simply instruct our bank to credit us "privately" with all "public deposits" (payable in "money" or on "acceptance" in kind) by our agreeing to "discharge" the bank's other customer, the "public commerce", of their pro rata liability to OUR private Bond.

 3. Natural, "Live" men; sovereigns, children of God, do not "qualify" for "credit" at the "public" bank, because the public bank is designed to work only for "public men"; straw men or personas. Live men have "issued" (therefore they OWN) the credit (all money) to the public bank, and have "hired" the public bank as their "agents", merely to administer the subsequent "distribution" (via loaning) of their credit to the "public men", or personas; the "qualified" applicants. "Qualified" means what it says. Man-made "commerce" can only be conducted by "man made" corporate personas, like the little "men" in monopoly. 

 4. Remember this as well. You are YOUR persona's Trustee, responsible for its actions or lack thereof. You are its beneficiary too, responsible for its "productivity". If your straw man has a bad "credit rating", because of low productivity or because of not "honouring" the commitments YOU advised it to make, then there is no one, nor can there be anyone to blame but YOU! 

 5. The Natural Resources of the Nation were FREELY GIVEN to the live, Natural children of God. No man can justly take away what God has given! Your claim to what God has given YOU, is just as Natural as a bird's right to migrate south for the winter. And ironically, no Court will oppose you on this issue, provided you can show them that you have FULL UNDERSTANDING, or "knowledge" of the matters.

GRACE: 1. As the principal party backing the Bond, we are private, we have the conscience, we hold the equity, we have the private rights. We are the Naturally privileged. We must be careful not to abuse this privilege. 

 2. What should we accept for value? Anything that has real, genuine and absolute equitable value, such as a cow, bar of gold, pound of chocolate, money, most goods and services, etc. When we properly accept these REAL things for VALUE and offset our liabilities with a claim against our exemption, we in fact are allowing the things themselves to reduce the public debt. Once we as the principal creditor, accept the item, we discharge the public liability to our Bond by the same amount. Everyone wins.

SUMMARY: Knowing some of the principles behind some of the rules has the potential to make the game of commerce a very enjoyable, fair and "equitable" game to play in.

WARNING: There are many ways to cross a mine field. Some of us have had experience or know of others who have "successfully" crossed the "mine field" of accepting for value against our private credit, or who have successfully crossed the "mine field" of the courts using various "procedures". These "successes" may be attributed to "luck" or simply speaking, they have been "accidents". These accidents have been well reported, rehearsed, and in some cases repeated successfully, but they are still accidental successes, in that their beneficiaries have no real idea of "why" they were successful. A much safer way to get across the mine field is to know precisely where all of the mines are, rather than simply a "safe" trail. You can fall or be pushed off of, or step out of a safe trail, but you cannot fall off of SOLID GROUND. Knowing WHY the system works the way it does, or metaphorically speaking, 'knowing WHERE all of the mines are', is your "safety" net to implementing HOW the system can work FOR YOU. If you are not entirely certain that you fully understand the system, then by no means should you endeavor to "practice" any of the matters set forth in these lessons.    TOP ^

False National Debts:

 We must understand that our Nations purport that "we" have these huge "National Debts". This is true, insofar as the "Debts" actually existing on the books. But they are part of a REAL, but man-made construct called "fiscal policy". Thus, they are manufactured; they are fictional entries, designed solely to accommodate our REAL dual entry book-keeping systems. A dual entry accounting system is designed to end up with a "zero" balance between outstanding credit and issued Debt. The Debt is issued in the form of our currency; hence it is correctly termed "Debt money".

This paper Debt money does indeed have value equal to its off-setting "credit", which is the National Debt it was issued against. The "value" is established by the actual productivity related to each dollar amount of Debt that has been "paid" for by a borrower/citizen/owner of the National Debt, from the fruits of his labors (that is why when it is paid for by the borrower, it belongs to the borrower). In short, this National Debt/Credit is owed to us, there is no real or mythical "lender" aside from us.

 We authorize the increase in the National Debt that is payable to ourselves, in two ways. Either by the government directly increasing it by using it to purchase items for and on behalf of the/our government, or by our borrowing more Debt money into private circulation (which is the only way money can come into circulation). Since all of the Debt money in circulation was/is REAL; not created by fiat as some unwitting peoples will purport, and was issued against a REAL, but fictitious book-keeping entry called our Savings Account Credit/National Debt, or sometimes, the "Treasury Account", we are the only "lender" hence the only party(s) entitled to collect the Credit. (Fiat money, or truly fiction money; value-less paper money only exists in the Monopoly game, not in our real game of commerce. Fiat or Monopoly money is value-equal to the pretense that “credit” money has more value than debt money. This is preposterous in that “credit” by definition means a “fiction book-keeping entry”, whereas “debt” is equal to income/value-equal production and is even “booked” that way. Ask any accountant.)

 The primary reason the National Debt is so large and growing so fast, is because we are a very productive nation that causes the issue and payment of a lot of product-value-equal Debt money, but we keep forgetting to claim our Credit that is owed to us. So this is the long version of the two ways in which the National Debt can be increased.

 There is only one way in which the National Debt can be decreased. That is by off-setting our tax liability that we owe to the government, with the National Debt CREDIT that they owe to us. It is financially superior to both the government and to us, to off-set our tax liability by reducing the Credit, than it is by trying to pay cash, because you CANNOT reduce a REAL fiction entry with REAL genuine dollars!

 In other words, if I have a pile of real dollars over here that I call "Debt Money" that amounts to 100Million, and I create a real, but fictional "Credit" entry of 100Million in order to balance my books to zero, I don't really have "negative money", or something in a pile that is capable of "balancing" the books. But I do have a REAL ENTRY that is a pretense; an entry that I have made up so I can now pretend to have a zero "balance". In other words, there is not any “money” in the Treasury Account, nor is there any "non-money" in it! The only "thing" in it is a book-keeping entry equal to the total amount of real money that has been issued and loaned into the private market plus whatever amount the government has spent to operate itself.

 This "Entry" that is in the Treasury Account is denominated in "dollars" for record keeping purposes only. Hence this entry that is also REAL, in the sense that it REALLY is in the books, and it really is equal to the amount of dollars we have guaranteed upon issue (and hence are OWED to us), is to our CREDIT. So when we owe taxes to the government, we simply authorize them to REDUCE the amount of our CREDIT they owe us, by whatever mount they claim we owe them and call it a deal. This way the National Debt actually gets reduced.

 The other way; paying by cash, requires by definition, more cash to be borrowed into circulation, ergo more National Debt every time you try to pay it with cash. Banks and a few large corporations and even fewer powerful individuals /lawyers/ judges/ politicians, and even fewer still, regular people like you and I actually know this and operate accordingly. Your tax return is designed to de facto act as a Bill of Exchange pursuant to the Act, entitling you to exchange your tax obligation for their National Debt/Credit obligation to you.

 Any allegations from CCRA or Internal Revenue in opposition to such a filing can be immediately shut down by a conditional acceptance upon proof by presentation of the fellow that allegedly loaned the government the money equal to the National Debt. If they can produce him then you will have to pay. But it is unlikely that they can produce someone that can prove he had the $3.2 Trillion Canadian dollars to loan us in Canada for example, and even more unlikely that they can create any plausible reasons why this extremely wealthy and very generous individual has NEVER taken a single payment of principal and or interest since his first advance to us! If you do it properly pursuant to the Act, like the banks do for example, you will not be challenged.  

And by the way, it should also be clear that the ill-advised do-gooders that go around telling people how to "rightfully" access "their" Treasury Account balances by “claiming their exemption at the point of sale” are full of crap. If you do what they purport, which in part is to cause a draft/Bill of Exchange to be "cleared" (because you may know how) against the Treasury Account, you have just fraudulently converted the Nation's (everyone else's) Credit into yours. Only the government has authorization to purchase things on this "Credit" account that has no real money in it. You and I do not have this authorization to purchase things or "claim our exemption at point of sale", but we do have the authority to offset our tax liability against this account "Credit" that is owed to us.  TOP ^

WHO REALLY OWNS REAL  ESTATE?

 Ever heard the expression, “possession is nine-tenths of the law”? Well for centuries that was absolutely true, and in many places it still holds some meaning. Remember our history lessons, when some explorer reached the shores of a new land he would simply plant his king’s flag on the land and declare it to be the property of the king from that day forward, regardless of who might have been living there first. Of course, many battles were fought in many lands around the world to enforce those declarations, which effectively proved that whoever was the biggest bully, was the owner.

 I am happy to be living in Canada but I am dubious about whether I fully support how it came to be the Queen’s property. If asked am I proud to be a Canadian land-owner, I would say yes, and by extension I would be saying many other things. The land I own was taken by force, and by continuing to act like that was perfectly justified, I and all other Canadians are silently stating that it must still be justified. So, like in times of old, the biggest bully might end up owning the most land!

 Sometimes the biggest bully may don very crafty disguises! It might not only be the right of might that wins in a bullying contest, but sometimes the deceit of the trickster can be just as effective.

 In North America, and many other places in the world, you do not actually own what you think you do. This includes your real property - your home. Oh you might have hired the best lawyer and you might have been told that you have “clear title” to your property, but you don’t - really really! How this happens is most amazing. It all has to do with an organised crime syndicate of bankers and mortgage companies, land titles and lawyers! Sounds far fetched I know, but believe me you do not own your property in spite of what you may think!

 Clever bankers working in concert with very crafty lawyers have literally stolen all of the real property titles in Canada and United States. With a few very rare exceptions such as holders of original Land Patents in the U.S. and holders of original Crown Land Grants in Canada, they have taken it all. Even the Natives have been duped from most of their Reservation properties! Every Reservation that has been pledged as Mortgage security, even if that Mortgage has been subsequently discharged, has been lost to the scheming bankers.

 Remember many years ago, possibly talking with older member of the family or community and hearing them speak of taking great care to place the actual title of their property in some safe place? Ever wonder why no-one speaks of this need any longer? Well, its because no-one has the need any longer! Ever wonder why suddenly it became the norm to have the Land Titles Office (in Canada) hold all of the original titles while the “owners” would only get a Certificate, or Abstract of title?

 Several decades ago, the wording of ALL mortgage documents was deliberately changed to include two clauses, something along the following. Clause Number 1: “I/we Mortgagee, hereby sell, convey, transfer, assign and devise all rights, title and interests to the property (legally described) unto the Mortgagor (lender), in perpetuity”. And Clause Number 2: “The Mortgagor (Lender) agrees that upon Mortgagee making all payments and obligations due to the Mortgagor hereunder during the term hereof, it shall discharge this Mortgage (its lien) from the subject property”. Notice that Clause Number 1 transfers all right “TITLE” and interest to the bank in perpetuity. Notice Clause Number 2 says only that the bank agrees simply to discharge their mortgage, and not that they will return the title!

 And from the first time any Crown Land in Canada was mortgaged under such terms, the bank(s) have indeed kept the title to the property in their name! As alleged “owner” all you got was a letter from Land Titles, confirming that there were no liens on the title other than what you agreed to. You were never told you were the actual Owner of the property or given the actual Title to prove it, you were just told that there were no liens on it and that you were registered “AS” the owner, the truthful meaning of the phrase being “as the owner IS ALSO” - the bank.

 You were also told that in this modern age it would be much safer to have the official Land Titles Office hold the title in safekeeping and that you should simply “trust” them. The reality is ever since the property you think you now own was put up as mortgage security that very first time after the banks started using this new wording, title to that property has remained in the name of that first mortgage lender, and you and all of the others since were tenants! Worse than this, every time anyone has mortgaged that property after the very first time, the banks have gained all of the interest and principal for property that they already stole!

 Now you can go through a process to have the Crown Land Grant status of your property confirmed and brought current, effectively providing you with the actual (allodial) Title to your property, which you should keep under lock and key in some place much safer than Land Titles, but what lawyer has ever advised you about this?

 In the U.S. a similar process is available to bring the original Land Patent current, which provides you the same results. So now instead of a Title Company holding the title, you would hold it. Oh, and no wonder Title Insurance companies can offer such title insurance coverage - they hold the real title! They always go through a great process to let you know the precise “history” of the parcel of land, but they never take you right back to the Land Patent or suggest that you should hold your own title as evidenced in that Land Patent, unless you demand it!

 An interesting advantage of having your Crown Grant or Land Patent brought current and possessing your own title, is that no-one may register any lien against it without your cooperation, because you “hold” it literally.

 What we need to do is to stop acting like the banks are justified in this thievery too. So long as we continue to behave like it is just fine to be robbed, they will continue to rob us. All we have to do to stop the robbery is to simply start acting like we know the difference. Theft from their point of view is relatively simple, especially when we all continue to act like the stupid victims they have made us out to be. By the millions, Canadians willingly pay these notorious thieves their hard earned, very valuable money - the fruits of their labours; their productivity every single day of the year! Soon we will have GIVEN our entire heritage away to these robber barons!

 Addendum:

"The earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness" (Psalms 24:1). That fairly well sums up who really owns things. Perhaps God's other remark "The land shall not be sold permanently, for the land is Mine; for you are strangers and sojourners with Me" (Lev. 25:23), also adds some insight into the Messiah’s later statement regarding His own living accommodation, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head" (Matt. 8:20). And we suspect that all of these plus many other similarly themed Bible verses are what prompted the Messiah’s disciples and the apostles to report "neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own" (Acts 4:32-35).

 We may possess things, but we may never truly own things, as the entire "earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness". We believe that it would be commendable for everyone to give thanks to God for their peaceful possession of those things that they have need of. "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through the Messiah Jesus" (Phil. 4:6,7).

 Do not become entangled in the things "of the world" such as prideful "ownership". Be content with God's gift of simple possession for your times of need. There is a Godly purpose to our faithful acceptance that God will provide for possessions that will fulfil our needs without the necessity to selfishly "own" them. This peace of God may well be something that "surpasses all [human - temporal] understanding".

 Remember the Commandment of God regarding ownership, "Thou shall not covet", but rather be content with what God has blessed you with. We are living in the world that God confirms is under Satan's temporary rule. Satan's man-made system of commerce including its temporal provisions for land ownership, is a far cry from being perfect. God knows this and He knows your needs.

 "Let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing" (James 1:4).

Ask in faith, and you shall receive! But remember that it is God that you are to ask of!

Addendum: Land Ownership:

In the strict sense, we do not have or own any land save that which we have been blessed possession of by our Father. The land that we enjoy possession of is "owned" pursuant to man's laws by a corporation (legal person, corporate persona, straw man) and the corporation is in turn entrusted to us (Natural living man) as its trustee.

 It may appear at times from our various writings in support of different ideas and concepts regarding man-made commerce, that we are "anti-establishment", which to the degree that being so is in harmony with God, we are. But we do not allow these things to blind us to the reality that this earth and all its fullness has been given into the hands of men! The earth is the Lord's and all its fullness, but indeed, Ps 115:16 says: "The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: but the earth hath he given to the children of men."

 We are unfortunately bound by men's rule even on God's earth, whether we like it or not. That is why we are told to obey every ordinance of man, particularly those ordinances that allow us to enjoy what man has determined to be "privileges" such as "owning" or "renting" land.

 I know the Bible says that land shall not be sold forever, but that is just another example of God's laws that are simply not obeyed by mainstream "disobedient" man. In this regard, even though man is definitely "wrong", we are nonetheless instructed to "let yourselves be defrauded" (1 Co.6:7). You cannot "let yourself be defrauded" if you are challenging everything that is fraudulent! So the land that the state perceives us to "own", is registered in a corporate identity which they also recognize.

 So the really important issue of land ownership and how that plays into Godly obedience is not unlike most issues of commerce and how they relate to Scripture. To totally maintain God's perfect laws as He has perfectly set them out, one would of necessity have to totally disobey every ordinance of man. Hence God provides a temporary compromise during this lifetime that we experience under man's rule. That compromise is exampled in the manner by which Paul acknowledges having lived in a "rented" house, and the Messiah acknowledged paying taxes and His bogus trial at the hands of "man" and man's inferior "law". No authority exists that does not come from God, even the authority of "man", hence God expects us to obey every one of Man's ordinances, because indirectly, they emanate from Him!

 This obviously does not include any of man's ordinances that are in direct contradiction to any of God's commandments. For example, man says that Sunday is the "Lord's Day", so keeping Sunday as a holiday does not interfere with maintaining the true Sabbath on Saturday as a Holy Day. Nor does paying rent in the form of artificial money interfere with possession of land. Nor does the payment of taxes cause you to violate any of God's commands. In other words, you do not have to kill someone, or commit adultery or steal from someone to pay taxes, pay rent, or otherwise "let" man be deceived by any of his own means.

 Likewise, you cannot control that which another man thinks. Hence even if you discriminate with regard to payment of taxes, trying for example, only to pay the mandatory as opposed to the voluntary, etc., you are really not changing anything. The ungodly tax collector will use all taxes to support his ungodly schemes regardless of whether or not those taxes were voluntary, obligatory, direct or indirect, so in the strict sense, if you pay any taxes at all, you are in league with the "common purse of the ungodly", just like the Messiah and Peter were, and even as Paul was by paying rent to a landlord that undoubtedly paid taxes from the rent money. In other words, do not worry, rather let yourself be defrauded, and be thankful that at least YOU know the difference!

 The only way to not be in the common purse with the ungodly is to not spend ANY of Caesar's money on anything, or to pay any of it to anyone that could directly or indirectly use that money to support any of Caesar’s schemes, which means total abstinence from commerce, which is NOT what God has decreed by the examples of the Messiah or the Apostles which are confirmed in His statement, "obey every ordinance of man". Remember that He said "obey", He did not say "enjoy" nor did He say "agree in your heart".

 If you are truly concerned about how you should "own" land, or if you are truly concerned about how you should obey God, we will state that you are truly concerned about two quite different things. We will not presume to give "advice" on land ownership. We will explain to the best of our abilities as many things as we can related to "man's" ordinances, so that you might find it a little easier to sift through some of them to see if one is more preferable to you than the other, but you will in any event, have to choose obedience to one or more of man's ordinances to deal with the issue of "land ownership".

 On the other issue of obeying God, that should be self-evident, but even this has been clouded by man's persistent interference with his own traditions. For example, in order to facilitate your Godly possession of land, you must obey one or more of man's ungodly ordinances. Not so with man's "traditions". The Saturday verses Sunday "tradition" for example, or the false Christmas or Easter "traditions" which man does not obligate you to keep, but if you do keep them you are disobeying God's ordinances in many ways.

 First by keeping the pagan traditions, second by not keeping the God ordained festivals, and third by not honouring a host of God's ordinances such as His direct command not to keep a "Christmas tree" as set out in Jeremiah 10: 2-5: "Do not learn the way of the Gentiles; For the customs of the people are futile; For one cuts a tree from the forest...they decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it...so that it will not topple".

 We do not know everyone’s potential rationale for being concerned about all of these issues surrounding commerce, which we are happy to answer to the best of our ability, but we suspect that it may be wise for many to spend a little more time understanding God's ordinances that they can obey without any conflict from man, as opposed to concerning yourself with challenging man's ordinances that you must obey because God has instructed thus.

Grace and peace to you, from our Father, Yahweh, and Yah'shua our Messiah!
