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, part two of how are we to respond to the warfare being conducted against us by the global elites. Will we respond like Oliver Cromwell or Guy Fawkes? Now, these two figures from British history represent a right way, a biblical way to fight tyranny, and a wrong way, an unbiblical way to fight tyranny.

Which is which? Which example should be our model today in the United States of America? I suggest there is one. First, however, it must be established that we are indeed at war. I did this at length last week, but I want to refresh your memories on this because if we indeed are not convinced that we are at war, all of this is a waste of time.

And you might as well go back to your boring job watching Netflix or ESPN this weekend, and most of America will do precisely this anyway. So it's not to you that I speak. In fact, most of America will turn away from considering our present circumstances as those of war, fear, denial, and the persistent tendency to perceive that since today was a lot like yesterday and tomorrow will be a lot like today, that's called the normalcy bias, fear, denial, and normalcy bias will lull us to sleep and make us turn away from the awful possibility that we might actually have to step out of our comfort zone and fight.

But that does not change the fact that we are at war. Fear, denial, and normalcy bias did not save the Jews of Hitler's Holocaust, who remained passive, though war was waged on them, and it didn't save the dodo bird either. In the 17th century, those birds were clubbed to death into extinction by Dutch sailors on the island of Mauritius, off the coast of Madagascar. Now, the dodo bird, who was flightless, numerous, with no predator to threaten it, the dodo bird would stand stupidly by without fleeing or fighting, while sailors would clubbed to death other birds around it.

So complete was the slaughter, so passive the behavior of the species, that it did indeed go extinct. And since then, the dodo bird is synonymous with stupidity in the face of danger. Dumb as a dodo bird describes precisely Americans who respond to the aggression of the global elite in fear, denial, and passivity. And that aggression has an apt name. We denominated this last week.

It is called full-spectrum dominance over the human domain. Full-spectrum dominance over the human domain. And I recommended a book to you as well. It is called Full-Spectrum Dominance with the subtitle Totalitarian Democracy in the New World Order, written by William Engdahl. And it means that our enemy seeks to dominate and control every point of contact it has with human experience.

Oh, and it includes, but is not limited to, seven different aspects. Number one, AI warfare. Artificial intelligence warfare, which the army calls the future of warfare. And every other aspect that we mention here is influenced by this one, AI warfare. Secondly, we are in a medical war.

Oh, you are being made sicker, sadder, poorer, and weaker by your enemies. It's called soft kill. We have been locked up, masked up, and vaxxed up. That is very much a part of the medical war against us. Thirdly, there's been a psychological and propaganda war.

Sun Tzu said famously, it is more important to outthink your enemy than to outfight him. And indeed, that's part of the psychological warfare being waged against us. Mainstream media, for example, has been captured. And so, indeed, there is a propaganda war being waged against you. Number four, there is also an economic war against us.

Economic war. And the philosophy has always been cripple your enemy's resources. Because poor, hungry enemies cannot resist. Oh, your money, dear listener, is being made worthless. Economic war is being waged against you with the printing of money.

And the food chain, the supply lines, and the energy resources are going away. Economic war is being waged against you. And there's a political war against you as well. Politics has been weaponized in the last few decades. And as Ben Clausewitz points out, war is a mere continuation of politics by other means.

So, real struggle against global forces and the constitutional republic is what we face. And there's also an environmental war being waged against us. Oh, the indoctrination in the religion of climate change has brainwashed entire generations. They're being primed for poverty. For the sake of Mother Earth, the global elites, they're not fighting for the sons of Mother Earth, but they're fighting for themselves.

Sons of birches who hug trees. Yes, you are being made poorer, sicker, dumber, and closer to the grave sooner than you ever thought possible in the environmental war. Tiny minds will gravitate to tiny houses as they live lives dedicated and dictated by twisted overlords. Oh, and then finally, of course, there's the spiritual war. Ah, the warfare begins and ends here.

We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, as the Apostle Paul says. Oh, behind all of the fronts, the other fronts we've mentioned, lies this one. Well, behold the seven points of contact, and these are only the major ones, on the spectrum of dominance over the human domain, being exercised over us by global elites, by global elites. Now, I cover this in previous broadcasts, and these are cataloged on our radio website, which is omnispotestas.org. I refer you, excuse me, to our website, omnispotestas.org, in which these are cataloged, omnispotestas.org.

Now, I also treat, in a series of three broadcasts, the rhyme, reason, and rationale of the Great Reset being hawked by globalists like Klaus Schwab, John Kerry, Bill Gates, even Barack Obama. Now, this broadcast is predicated on the reality of those previous ones. The Great Reset is a conspiracy. It is a conspiracy of the global elite against the bulk of humanity, as much as the Holocaust was a conspiracy of the Nazis against the Jews, right? The Great Reset is not a conspiracy theory.

The evidence is open, plain, and overwhelming. If I'm a conspiracy theorist in your worldview, then you are a naive, brainwashed Pollyanna in the real world. Go back to sleep. Take the blue pill. Sink back into the Matrix, if this is your thinking.

Turn this channel back to an oldie station, or punch in a Rihanna CD. So, I speak to Christians who are of the same spirit and mindset of the tribe of Issachar during the days of King David. The tribe of Issachar, the best of his fighting men, as the text says in 1 Chronicles chapter 12, men who had understanding of the times to know what Israel ought to do. Oh, this is to whom I speak in our day. Therefore, given that we are at war, how do we fight a full spectrum dominance of the human domain?

Well, we fight it, of course, on every front of that domain. And it is important to do it smartly and righteously, too. We have mottos from history on how to do this. I picked two of them, Oliver Cromwell and Guy Fawkes. Oh, Guy Fawkes.

Let's take him first. Most of us are familiar with this character, Guy Fawkes, from history, from the popular movie V for Vendetta, which gave us an admittedly rollicking good tale of a dystopian future in which England is ruled as a brutal totalitarian state. After a virus ravages the world in chaos and death and soon, people cry out for a solution from the dictator, Adam Suttler. Does that sound familiar? Now, this film was made in 2005, but it is as relevant as today's headlines.

Now, V in the movie is a lone freedom fighter who attempts to incite a revolution against the state with various acts of terror on the anniversary of Guy Fawkes night. Now, his Guy Fawkes mask, which is a pale, eerie visage with a dapper beard and a broad grin, this mask is ubiquitous in our culture today and has become a symbol of resistance to tyranny, hasn't it? Guy Fawkes himself was a terrorist platter who, along with several other co-conspirators, attempted to assassinate then-Protestant King James I and his parliament to blow them up on November 5 of 1605.

Guy Fawkes did this by surreptitiously stacking kegs of gunpowder in a room underneath parliament, and consequently, this plot is also known as the gunpowder plot. And the plan was to ignite the gunpowder as King James I first formally called parliament into session, and in the death and chaos which would result, install a Catholic monarch in his place. Well, the plot was disclosed, alas, by an inside informant, and who should the police find tending the gunpowder the very night before but our man Guy Fawkes? Oh, he was arrested, tried, and executed as a traitor. Well, a tradition arose as well.

A tradition arose celebrating the foiling of a dastardly conspiracy and the preserving of England's independence from French Catholicism and European popism. Preserved this celebration in Guy Fawkes' night, celebrated every November 5th. Well, while the character Guy Fawkes provides the British with a fun holiday and provides us with a rollicking good tale in masks and movies, oh, the character of Guy Fawkes serves as a terrible model for fighting tyranny. Yes, it is terrorism, pure and simple. It rarely works.

Restrain yourself, dear American. Restrain yourself. It rarely works, terrorism, and it's a violation of the code of the just war theory, the just war theory. Now, this ancient code, first developed by San Augustine and refined by the church over centuries, this code has seven principles by which a war may be considered just by biblical standards. A code by which a war may be considered just by biblical standards before that war is waged.

And ostensibly, no Christian prince or professed Christian government would fight a war unless all of these principles were present. And I cover this theory again in previous broadcasts. The just war theory was employed, for example, most recently, in the establishment of the Nuremberg Tribunals following World War II, where members of the Nazi regime were brought to justice. The just war theory. Now, one of these principles is that no war is to be fought unless conducted by a legitimate government magistrate.

Yes, this was to prevent random acts of terror and hot-headed revolutionaries from spreading useless, futile death and destruction, even as Antifa and Black Lives Matter did all summer a couple years ago, right? So, unless conducted by a legitimate government authority, such acts of terror were just murder, a violation of the Sixth Commandment. And this, of course, is the very definition of who Guy Fawkes was. So, with these things in mind, let's now consider Oliver Cromwell. Oh, one of my favorite characters from history, Oliver Cromwell.

He's less well-known than Guy Fawkes, but he should be far better known. Cromwell. Oliver Cromwell was just a little boy at the time of the gunpowder plot. He was growing up on the estate of his father, Thomas Cromwell, who had been a minister under the famous Henry VIII. Now, Oliver was soundly converted to Christ in the 1630s.

His faith remained the center of his life all the rest of his life. He even turned down the kingship because he figured that only Christ was king. Oliver Cromwell always sensed that God was guiding his destiny. He sensed this from the time he was first elected to parliament all the way to when he was elected Lord Protector of England in 1653. Oliver Cromwell.

I urge you to read a biography of him. It's one of them. One of the best ones is called The Lord Protector by Meryl d'Abergine, who is a French writer. The important point for our consideration here today in the 21st century is that Cromwell commanded the army of parliament in the English Civil Wars that ran from 1642 to 1651 in a series of three different wars. They're collectively called the English Civil War, 1642 to 1651.

Now, in these wars, parliament resisted a true tyrant of the day, King Charles I. Now, Cromwell proved himself to be a very capable commander in the field. He raised, trained, and organized a strong army composed of ordinary Englishmen who fought for their religious and civil liberties. Now, at first, they were derisively called roundheads because they cut their hair in the field by placing round bowls over their heads and then cutting around the bowls. But such was their skill and bravery in battle that the pejorative soon became a label of pride.

Yes, proudly they called themselves roundheads. In fact, Oliver Cromwell is the only commander in history to have never lost a battle. He never lost a battle in which he was the commander of troops. This was a civil war in England, a civil war fought according to the principles of a just war. In particular, that the rebellion against tyranny was led by bona fide magistrates, that is, members of parliament elected by the people.

So important to maintain, so important to insist upon that if you are going to fight a just war, it must be fought by legitimate bona fide magistrates. And in this case, it was members of parliament elected by the people. This was truly a people's war because for the first time since the tribal days of the Anglo-Saxons, the ordinary citizen was able to enlist and fight against tyranny for his own personal liberties. That was part of the genius of Cromwell.

While the royalist troops of King Charles I were composed of the English aristocracy and their sons and their knights and their squires, who may or may not have known how to fight, well, the forces in rebellion against tyranny were composed of committed soldiers composed of common Brits, thoroughly trained for their task. However, they were tough, grueling, sustained battle was the circumstances under which they fought. They knew what they were fighting for as well, the promise of liberty under a new form of government, the English Republic.

So it is to the model of Oliver Cromwell and not Guy Fawkes that we must fight our present civil war in America. And that war has many fronts too. It is, as William Engdahl describes it, a full-spectrum dominance of the human domain, a totalitarian democracy we live in, in the new world order. But at our head must be godly men and women who understand the times, as Issachar did, what America ought to do, not Israel. So what on earth would that look like, dear listener?

Let me submit to you that that would look like, since it is the federal leviathan, the federal leviathan and beast that's originating in Washington, D.C., the district of criminals, that is looming over us. It is the leviathan beast in Washington, D.C. that looms over us, spreading its tyranny and all of its aspects over us. Help must come from another quarter. Forget change coming from the government, right? For it is beyond redemption.

It is thoroughly, from top to bottom, the very definition of demonic evil and tyranny. It is the beast that we must destroy. And I will not rehearse all of the reasons why this is so. I have done that in my series on the Declaration of Independence, and how the details of tyranny, which Thomas Jefferson articulates in the 29 particulars of why the states had every right to throw off the chains of tyranny imposed by King George and Parliament in his day. They are eerily, uncannily like our own circumstances today.

And you'll find that series once again on our website, omnispotestas.org. O-M-N-I-S dash P-O-T-E-S-T-A-S dot org. So, the solution to tyranny is found in what the Founding Fathers provided us, the resistance of the individual states. The solution to tyranny is the resistance of individual states. This was given to us by our Founding Fathers.

Only when the individual states pull back from sucking on the federal teat, and stand on their own two feet, and fight on behalf of their citizens, will then the federal government, a wholly owned subsidiary of China and the global elites. Only then will that federal leviathan be destroyed, and the traitors who infest its halls and chambers be brought to justice. Then accountability will be brought forth. But until then, the tyranny will only increase its grip across the full spectrum of dominance of the human domain. Submit and die, dear listener.

Resist and live. Well, what does that state resistance look like? Let me submit to you again. Let me suggest for you at the top stand governors and state legislatures. At the very top stand governors and state legislatures.

With the sole exception of Governor DeSantis in Florida, who is beginning to wake up and take his place as a true governor of a state, and not merely a lackey administrator of a federal province like our own Brad Little. He is indeed merely a lackey administrator of a federal province. That's what he's made of Idaho. There are no governors except Governor DeSantis as the founding fathers designed. Governors of states as the founding fathers designed.

Most of the state legislatures as well are asleep, accustomed to going along to get along. We have a few state legislators who I'm very proud of who are indeed standing up and resisting. Governors, however, and legislators, mostly at the state level, must wake up. They must buckle up and put their states on a war footing to fight the beast. This involves, if necessary, calling up the state guard if military resistance is required in extraordinary circumstances.

But the top of the state pyramid is not where all this begins. No, no, no, no. There are other more important levels, dear listener. Next, we find at the next level, we the people must rally our mayors and city councils and county commissioners to fight the encroachment of the beast. Dear listener, seek out, support, and elect mayors and councilmen who will do everything possible to fight on every spectrum the dominance over the whole of our human domain at the most effective level, and that is the local level.

Only when mayors and councilmen stop inflating their own power egos by passing silly things like LBGTQ measures and mask ordinances and vaccine mandates and start resisting the federal beast on a war footing. Only then will our states begin to develop moral backbone and muscle and sinew. But this, even then, is still not the strongest base of the pyramid of state power. Next, we come to the closest of all to the base of the people, and that is the local sheriff. Ah, the local sheriff is the chief law enforcement officer of the people.

He's elected by them. He represents them. He employs his best wisdom and discretion in enforcing the laws of his state. He's the most accountable magistrate of the people, the sheriff. They see him and his deputies every day.

No one represents a free constitutional republic more thoroughly than the local sheriff. He also has the power to deputize the local citizenry in extraordinary circumstances in which we find ourselves today. However, let me give you an example. Sheriff Brad Coe of Kinney County in Texas, which lies on our southern border. Sheriff Brad Coe has deputized the local militia to help him patrol the border.

Otherwise, he is utterly overwhelmed. And for the time being, these militia members are unarmed, and they act as the eyes and ears for Sheriff Coe and his deputies. But that could change, too. Well, the point is, this sheriff is beginning to exercise wise authority in his role as chief constitutional officer of the people. That is, the local sheriff.

And we need many, many more, like Sheriff Coe. And then, of course, closest of all to the foundation of the pyramid of power is you, dear listener. It's me. It's we, the people. We are the ones who will ultimately fight and win this war, which has been thrust upon us.

No one has gone looking for this fight, for this war. Cromwell could not have established the English Republic without his citizen soldier, the roundhead. And those same citizen soldiers could not have won a godly, righteous civil war without men like Oliver Cromwell, legitimate magistrates ordained by God and elected by the people. Dear American, this full spectrum dominance so cynically being strapped around us by the evil, demonic global elites and their patsy traitors serving the federal Leviathan, they cannot succeed without your compliance. You must comply in order for them to win.

So, dear listener, comply and die, resist and live. We are many more than they. We are stronger and more righteous than they. And we have the best weapons for this warfare, the same weapons that our forefathers employed to defeat the beast in their day, back in the first century. The apostle John puts it this way in Revelation 12.

And they have conquered him, that is the beast, by the blood of the lamb and by the word of their testimony. For they love not their lives, even unto death. Oh, here are our weapons. They are spiritual weapons, the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony. Dear listener, face it, we are at war.

Face your fear. Dispel the dense fog of denial. You no longer live in ordinary times, where one day will unfold predictably like the day before. Your enemies have seen to that, and to Solomon so aptly puts it in Ecclesiastes. He says, for everything, there is a season and a time for every matter under heaven.

A time to be born and a time to die. A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to break down. A time to build up. A time to weep and a time to laugh.

A time to tear down and a time to sow. A time to keep silence and a time to speak. A time for war and a time for peace. Dear listener, you have no choice. War has been thrust upon you, and your only choice is, will you run?

And there's quickly being no places to run anymore. Or will you submit? And if you submit, you will, in a like kind of way, die in a FEMA camp, sick and disillusioned, alone, and as a slave. Or you can resist. Where if you do die, you will be free with the Lord.

And if you live, you will be free as well. Because no one who resists tyranny is a slave, as long as he resists. Resist in the Lord. Indeed, submit and die, or resist and live. This has been Pastor David Bass at New Geneva Orthodox Presbyterian Church.
