The Founders Warned Us About Some One Some Time...Could Be Right About Now.

"The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation on the ruins of public liberty.
It serves always to distract the public councils and feeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions.
It is important, likewise, that the habits of thinking in a free country should inspire caution in those entrusted with its administration to confine themselves with in their respective constitutional spheres, avoiding in the exercise of the powers of one department to encroach upon another. The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all departments in one and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism.
If in the opinion of the people the distribution or modification of the constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed."

FLAHR in, the name of a gold coin first made in Florence in the 1200's. The name comes from the Latin word for flower. The florin bore the imprint of a lily on one side, and the figure of Saint John the Baptist on the other side. The first English florin was issued as a six-shilling gold coin in the reign of Edward III (1327-1377). A Silver English florin worth two shillings was first coined in 1849.

If you think he is saying things heard on the news lately you could be wrong.
These videos are a redo of the Sermons from his past days of Cassette Tape Recordings.
When I first watched-listened to him he was a young red headed guy.
I wanted to buy his tapes but could not afford, would have cost in the thousands. Yes he is that good.
I hope these videos are as moving as his earlier tapes-and informative.
I will listen to these before I post to see if they are worth your time.

Thank you -TS-
He was/is RIGHT ON!

Take over the Ed system and create situations to promote WAR -

Isn't interesting that the followers of the Dark Side never change their tacitcs!

They WRITE a plan-
State their Plan-
FOLLOW through with their plan---

We Christians must do the same-
Homeschool or Christians schools-

stay out of affairs of Europe (G. Washington ) and the rest of the world - WAR-

and keep on following through w/ the Constitutional percepts---

Do you think we few of us in the US can 'pull it off'!?!!!

I'll be back to view more--
