Greetings. This is Pastor David Bass at New Geneva Orthodox Presbyterian Church with a moment of truth, where we challenge you to think through an important issue of life and faith. And today I want to encourage you to pray for the United States of America. If indeed, Joe Fraudin, his election is certified and he is subsequently inaugurated. What are we to do as Americans if indeed Joe Fraudin has his election certified and he is indeed inaugurated as president of the United States?

Well, if that happens, then I would suggest to you that we the people, in order to form a more perfect union and establish justice and ensure domestic tranquility and provide for the common defense and common welfare of the people and secure the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our posterity, I suggest that we withdraw our consent to be governed by you, the ugly abomination that has become known as the deep state. And that includes Congress and the executive, the judiciary, and every department, bureau, and agency of the federal government that exists. You are all worthless, corrupt, and self-serving traitors to the Constitution.

You have violated your sacred oaths to the Constitution, not only to protect it from enemies foreign and domestic, but you have cynically fostered and encouraged our Constitution's betrayal to enemies foreign, that is, the communist Chinese party, but also enemies domestic, that is, both political parties. You've wanted to see Trump gone for years now, or Antifa, or Black Lives Matter, or the mainstream media, or all social media, countless globalist elites who finance for and profit from and are subservient to this evil satanic beast that is the federal deep state government.

Although President Donald Trump has accomplished a great deal in his 48 months as chief executive, in contrast to the 47 years of vacuous self-aggrandizement by Joe Fraudin, perhaps the best service that Trump has done is to bring into stark relief and complete exposure the true nature of what we now know as the deep state. Trump has turned on the light, and the government cockroaches scatter for their hiding places. Trump has thrown back the curtains, and the deep state vampires evaporate in the sunlight.

Trump has refused to ignore the 800-pound gorilla in the room, but rather he's called it for what it is, a stinking, flea-ridden, man-aiding beast that is thoroughly ravaging the American body politic. Behold, America, your federal government, the deep state. And I'm afraid it is no longer possible to submit in good conscience to this bestial authority. The utter, transparent, naked fraud of an election displayed before our eyes is but the last and most egregious affront to a free citizen's sensibilities, someone with their eyes open. Evil people cast fraudulent ballots.

Evil people counted fraudulent ballots. Evil people certified the evil counting. And evil, cowardly politicians turn a blind eye to mountains of evidence, and they join in with the mainstream media in calling Joe Fraudin president-elect. And that includes our own Idaho delegation. They need to be primaried.

Perhaps you heard the testimony as well of that intern who was serving in the Supreme Court. He relayed how Chief Justice Roberts, in abject, craven fear, refused to take the one promising case for Donald Trump and the election fraud. He refused to take that Texas case because he thought that cities would burn at the hands of Antifa. Mr. Roberts, your legacy, Chief Justice Roberts, your legacy is now cemented in history that of a coward, a coward who, when liberty hung in the balance, shrunk from his duty, wetting himself in fear.

Oh, dear brothers and sisters, when the most sacred trust in our republic, our vote is cynically baldly stolen right in front of our eyes. And we're told that it's not being done, that there was no fraud, as they metaphorically pee on our shoes and tell us it's raining. Will you stand for it? When is enough enough for you? A great English philosopher, John Locke, who wrote, lived during the late 17th and the early 18th century, he taught that in a state of nature, a man has the right of government wholly to himself over himself.

But when men come into society with one another, each man has the liberty to grant his consent to be governed by a civil society. And Locke in his writings, in particular, in his second treatise on civil government, he cites many forms of government and he kind of cycles through them. But he, in the end, thinks a republic is the best form of government. And I would agree with him on that. And so did our founding fathers.

Our founding fathers read deeply, drew deeply from Locke's well. And even in the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson cited Locke almost word for word. And Locke says, he says this about giving one's consent to be governed. He said, and I quote, men being by nature all free, no one can be put out of this estate, that is a freedom, and subjected to the political power of another without his own consent, unquote. That's the idea of we being governed by the consent of the governed.

It's a phrase that Locke uses often the consent of the governed makes society possible. And those in such society with one another go on to enjoy an implicit social contract, he calls it. There is a social contract among those who give their consent to be governed. And I quote him again from the second treatise on civil government. He says, those who are united into one body and have a common established law and judicature to appeal to, with authority to decide controversies between them and punish offenders, these are in civil society one with another, unquote.

So very well put. And describes indeed what America has been at her best. By our vote, it is we, the people who decide who makes laws over us by means of the legislature and the legislature alone, not the executive branch. We don't cede the power to make laws to the executive branch with their executive orders or with the judicature, that is the courts making law, which has happened in America over the decades. Locke says, and I quote, the legislative cannot transfer the power of making laws to any other hands.

Parenthetically, that's just what I was talking about. Executive orders shouldn't be able to stand as well as the many bureaus and departments in America that make their own rules that are equal to laws. None of the ship should obtain. And then Locke goes on to say, for it being but a delegated power from the people, that is the legislature, a delegated power from the people, they who have it cannot pass it over to others. The people alone can appoint the form of the commonwealth, which is by constituting the legislative and appointing in whose hands that shall be unquote.

In other words, by electing legislators. Oh dear listener, consequently, when that a power of appointing, that is the vote, when the vote is taken from us. Tyranny is the consequence. And tyranny, unfortunately, is indeed the state we find ourselves in at present. But when at that point, when the vote is taken from us, that power to appoint, if you will, when the social contract, as Locke calls it, has been broken, a man has the right to withdraw his consent to be governed by that now illegitimate system.

Our social contract is not a long tradition of historical precedence of freedom as it is in England. Indeed, the idea of liberty and freedom in England is based on a historical precedent along with documents like the Bill of Rights, the English Bill of Rights, or the charter of freedom in England, or our consent to be governed. Our contract is not a contract of tribal and ethnic bonds that made them one, as it has been in Germany for centuries, the idea of tribal and ethnic bonds.

No, rather, our social contract is quite explicit, and it's been reduced to writing a literal contract or covenant, and that is the written constitution of the United States of America. And that social contract has been demolished, it's been destroyed, it's been made unrecognizable recently, not just broken. Metaphorically, the twin towers of our republic, the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution, these twin towers have been turned into smoking rubble, and turned into smoking rubble, as in 9-11, by the terrorist of liberty. And they are, are none other than our own present-day rulers, the deep state.

The deep state indeed is the chief terrorist of liberty, taking down the twin towers of our republic, the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution. Those beasts who now rule over us in this swiftly closing medical tyranny, this Venus flytrap of a tyranny, they have no legitimate right to power any longer. They have forfeited it. They have squandered their authenticity. They are all pretenders, usurpers, as Locke calls them, and petty tyrants.

From Joe Fraudin, to Nancy Baloney, to Rich Mitch McConnell, to Alexandria Occasional Cortex, the Occasional Cortex, sometimes she thinks, why do those in power pick stupid people to rule? Maybe it's because they're easier to control. But all of these, to the very myriads of federal and state and local officials who have sold us out for 30 pieces of platinum, or maybe a suitcase of yuan, or for a pension or a paycheck, or maybe a soft gig in our new Beijing Boise. Yes, Boise, Idaho is becoming Beijing Boise with all of the Chinese money flowing into it. And Governor Little, who I have rechristened Beijing Brad.

All of them are transforming our liberties into slavery. All of the millions of dollars, for example, that Beijing Brad took from Washington DC, which is ultimately Chinese money, when he shut us down, and then Beijing Brad in turn distributed it to he and his cronies. All of them must be removed and brought to justice for treason and replaced with those who know and understand and respect and swear to abide by the provisions of that social contract that is the United States Constitution. Oh dear listener, the extent too of the treason is quite stunning when you think about it.

The extent of the treason that has been perpetrated upon us is quite breathtaking when you consider it. For example, the Chinese Communist Party has been very patient over the decades in buying up property and politicians and our national debt here in the United States of America. Yes, they own us. What we see now transpiring is Mr. Potter, the banker from the Christmas movie, It's a Wonderful Life, perhaps you remember him, Mr. Potter, calling in the mortgage, right? This, what we see transpiring before our eyes in this election, this fraudulent election is the house.

That is the Chinese Communist Party, the house calling in, calling the poker hand, if you will, no more anti. The bet has been called. And the metaphorical SWAT team too, rolling up the target. And I think probably soon to be followed by real SWAT teams on conservatives. And I'm not being paranoid about that either, dear listener.

President Trump calls the Chinese virus, the Chinese virus for good reason, right? It came from China, he says, in this typically blunt fashion. But we have good reason to believe that that virus issued from the level four lab in Wuhan, China, having its further provenance in the United States of America from our own CDC, which lab in Wuhan received funding and intellectual support and actual viral material from the CDC. And its chairman, Fauci, Anthony Fauci, St. Anthony, as I like to call him, because he can say no wrong or do no wrong.

Even the mainstream media rag Newsweek in a recent issue partially admits this, revealing that a 3.7 million dollar grant was given to this Chinese lab in Wuhan by Fauci. And that was all the way back in 2014 under the Obama administration. And since then, that virus has been weaponized and turned loose upon us because there are indeed strong indications that the COVID cult is in part real sickness and real psyop meant to destroy the United States of America as we know it. It's meant to kill the middle class, small businesses, so that indeed the mega corporations can rule.

Always remember, dear listener, when you hear the drivel coming from the mainstream media. It is not COVID that has killed us. It is the response to COVID, which we have taken, that is destroying us. There was no predestined protocol that we had to follow to fight COVID. Was there?

No, no predestined protocol. There was no predestined protocol. It could have and probably should have been done much differently. The model of Sweden being my favorite one. They're through this.

They're over it now. But rather, it has become the predestined pretext. Our response to COVID has become the predestined pretext for our protocol. Precisely because of the social control that it offers. Your ugly, bestial controllers.

They don't have your best interest at heart. Do not project your good will, which you would have for us. Do not project your good intentions onto those in government without good evidence. We do have some excellent public servants at the state level. For example, my own, uh, representative from district 32 is a good example of a true patriot.

And there are many, many others, especially at the state level here in Idaho. We have a handful of the same true public servants, true patriots at the federal level too, but too few of them and perhaps too few of them too late for president Trump. I'm afraid we'll see what transpires. We'll see what unfolds here over these next few weeks before Joe Froden is actually inaugurated and takes his role as president of the United States. Dear listener, it's important to never forget that those who seek power are not like us.

No, those who seek power for some reason are not like us. The one who goes into politics and government genuinely to serve is a very rare breed. Most of those who seek power do so for other reasons. The great author Leo Tolstoy says in order to obtain and hold power, a man must love it. Unquote.

Yes, he saw the heartbeat of those who seek power. They must love it, right? If you seek to obtain and hold onto it. Barry Goldwater said this in one of his speeches, and I love Barry Goldwater, especially the early Barry Goldwater. He said this in a speech, and I quote, those who seek absolute power, even though they seek it to do what they regard as good, are simply demanding the right to enforce their own version of heaven on earth.

He goes on to say, and let me remind you, they are the very ones who always create the most hellish tyrannies. Absolute power does corrupt, and those who seek it must be suspect and must be opposed. Beautifully said, Barry Goldwater. Power over others, dear listener, for the sake of that power is a Luciferian impulse, and make no mistake, there are many who are seeking power just for the sake of power, and they are literal Luciferians. That has been rampant, and that's coming more and more to light all across the deep state, the deep state as it exists here in America.

Power over others, for the mere sake of that power, is Luciferian. It has been from that way, from the beginning of our species. The Gospel of Luke unfolds for us one of the temptations of our Lord. And Luke chapter 4 says, regarding our Lord, and the devil took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time, and said to him, to you I will give all this authority and their glory, for it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will. If you then will worship me, it will all be yours.

Can you hear the hiss of the serpent in that temptation, dear listener? Well, our Lord resisted that temptation, but most men do not. Most mere mortals do not. Maybe also George Washington resisting that temptation. And make no mistake, dear listener, Lucifer offers the same bargain to all who would seek power.

Some are attracted to power over others, like a child to a glittering bubble, a moth to a flame, a cat to a fluttering curiosity, right? It is said that power corrupts, but actually it's more true that power attracts the corruptible, says David Brin, who is a scientist, a working scientist and an author as well, who writes science fiction. He says, it is said that power corrupts, but actually it's more true that power attracts the corruptible. The sane are usually attracted by other things than power, unquote. Yes, that's why I say that those who seek power are not like us, dear listener, and you have to keep this in mind.

The sane are usually attracted by other things than power, but not those who seek power. No. You and I, we just want to be left alone. At least I do. I want to do other things, as Brin says.

I want to do other things, like Brin says, than seek power. I want to minister to my flock as a reverend. I want to raise a family. Personally, I want to ski more. I want to hike in the mountains more.

Oh, I want to be left alone. But the wicked beasts who aspire to power will not leave me alone. That's one of the problems in our day and age, that those who are attracted to power, who seek power, who love power, will not leave us alone. They will not leave us to our own ways and our own lives. They rather are busy about, as he says, enforcing their version, as Goldwater says, enforcing their version of heaven on earth.

They are busy about redistributing my wealth, as the socialists want to do. They are busy about forcing me to wear a face diaper or take vaccines. And they are busy about telling me what I can say, what I cannot say, what I can think, and what I can do and cannot do. Dear listener, we are not being left alone, content to live our lives independent of them. No, they want to control us.

Abraham Lincoln put it this way. He said, nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test the man's character, give him power, unquote. That is so good. That is so true, right? That Luciferian temptation to worship him for the glory and for the authority of power, that is such a great temptation and it can corrupt a man's character because so many of us can stand adversity.

But if you want to test the man's character, give him power. We've seen a man's character overturned and corrupted by too much power. And George Orwell puts it most bluntly in his 1984, his book 1984. He says this, power is not a means. It is an end for so many.

That's true, isn't it? For so many who seek power, power is not a means to a greater good, but rather power is an end in itself. He goes on to say, Orwell does. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution. One makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.

The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power, unquote. George Orwell. He puts it boldly and plainly and bluntly, doesn't he?

And that we see that transpiring before our eyes. Now, look at the governors of New York or California, for example. That's exactly the kind of men they are. They indeed are seeking power for power. The object of power is power in their eyes.

And dear listener, this is what we have come to in America. Indeed, if Joe Fraudin is confirmed and if his election is certified by Congress, then he is subsequently inaugurated as president of the United States. This is what we are in for. And it is our right, it is our duty to withdraw our consent and to establish a new republic. This has been Pastor David Bass at New Geneva Orthodox Presbyterian Church.

New Geneva indeed is not a part of the deep state. New Geneva indeed has declared its withdrawal of consent to be ruled by and governed by this fraudulent system. And we meet for holy worship on Sunday at 10 a.m. at 101 4th Street on the corner of 4th and Boulevard. I encourage you to join us at New Geneva and worship with us, check us out, see what we are, who we are, and you'll find a warm welcome as you come and visit us.
