All Men Are Created Equal To Jesus In The Declaration of Independence

All Men Are Created Equal To Jesus

The question to answer is; “how do I penetrate the chaos of the internet and the sleep-state of individual human consciousness to communicate my viewpoint?” First I think you have to ascertain that you yourself are not in a sleep-state. Obviously you see that the general population doesn’t think about much beyond the surface of what is offered to them through whatever media they are exposed to. Author Jan Irvin was on Alex Jones talking about mind control and talking about Trivium Education. During the course of the interview Mr. Irvin went out of his way to make a significant comment to Alex. He told Alex that he had to learn to think without emotions. I think that the solution to your question about communication on the internet lies within your own self and understanding how you receive communication. Your reception of communication is entirely dependent on your emotional attitude about the subject of the communication. It also stands to reason that your emotional attitude colors your own outbound communication.
In order to understand what is “emotional attitude” I want to shift to another angle on this subject. I want to define the true self of a human being through the Declaration of American Independence. To the point – “all men are created equal.” This “self-evident” truth is the cornerstone of Democracy. It is saying that ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL TO THE HIGHEST STANDARD OF HUMAN CREATION. For Thomas Jefferson and the other founding fathers the highest standard of human creation is Jesus of Nazareth. I say this because the Creator referred to by Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence and understood by all of the signers of the document, is the Creator who raised Jesus from the dead. What other God would they be referring to? The highest thought here is that God creates all humans as himself. Jesus of Nazareth as a man is the perfect creation of God. Jesus of Nazareth is the best that God can do. God creates all men equal to Jesus. This is the logical conclusion that comes from God being perfect. Logically he can only create perfection. He cannot create a man better than perfect Jesus nor can he create a man less than perfect Jesus and so every human is identically perfect with Jesus. This means that the basic state of mind – the true self – of all humans is identical to the self of Jesus of Nazareth. This state of mind of the self of Jesus is Creative PEACE. You might imagine that the surface of the mind of Jesus is like a perfectly still body of water without a single ripple. There is no tension. The feeling that comes off of the surface of the mind of Jesus is JOY because Joy is the will of God. This means that the natural state of mind of all humans is Peace and satisfaction actively expressing JOY.
What then are negative feelings if logically they do not arise spontaneously from the true self? What is the source of feelings of anger if those feelings don’t originate in the true self? Logically, all negative feelings come from outside of the true self. Defining the source of negative feelings is not important because the fact that they exist is self-evident and so understanding how to deal with these negative feelings is of primary importance. Because your thinking is controlled by how you feel about the subject of your thought it means that negative feelings that come from outside of yourself will displace the good feelings of your true self and create thought in your mind contrary to thoughts that the good feelings from your true self would create in your mind. In other words thoughts that are not from your true self. When your thinking is steered by negative feelings you have become a tool of those negative feelings. Thomas Jefferson referred to the control that negative feelings have on the mind as “tyranny over the mind of man” I’m sure you remember Jefferson’s oath; it’s right there at his memorial. He wrote, “I have sworn upon the Altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man”. He declared his feelings of hostility against the negative feelings of hate, fear, despair, doubt, anger, and stupidity and any other negative feelings that could come up to stand in the way of Liberty..
It is a logical conclusion that the only thoughts that can be trusted as your own are those thoughts that occur when you are feeling your true self which is joy. Thoughts that occur to you under the bias of negative feelings will always be problematic, misleading, and off the point and cannot be trusted. You can only do your best problem-solving when you are being your best self and your best self has no doubt and no fear because your best self is creating joy all of the time. Being in a good mood is being yourself and being in a bad mood is being a hateful version of yourself.
To answer your question as to whether the internet is “dumbing us down” I would respond that the internet is just a mechanical vehicle without any intent and that the mass of humanity is being constantly “dumbed down” by non-human negative feelings that permeate the content of the WEB. Your solution will come from your true self by allowing yourself to feel like yourself all of the time. Real consciousness is the continual realization of your own happiness as the fulcrum of perception. Focusing on happiness as consciousness is the way we all are pursuing Happiness.
On a political level a person of consciousness becomes actionary versus reactionary. Instead of fearing the oppressors and allowing the fear-feeling to create in you imaginations of disasters which then brings you deeper into the circle of fear, dumbing you even more, the solution is to think about the oppressors without fear and allow solutions to their oppressions to occur in your mind and create imaginations of salvation for all mankind. Just the realization that our Creator endows all humankind with freedom and happiness creates a Democratic view of God in our minds in which he is a friend of all of the people. The view of God as a King is what is at the root of all tyrannical regimes and religions including King George’s England of 1776. The concept of God as King comes down through Mosaic Law and has been used by all secular and religious oppressors in the west as a validation of their tyrannical authority. The Declaration of Independence rejects tyrannical authority both secular and religious and rests real authority in the individual person. There are no ten commandments in the Declaration of Independence. There is no hate. There is only freedom to live and be happy.

The American Religion Defined in The Declaration of Independence


The American Religion Defined In The Declaration of Independence
By Timothy F. Ley M.A.


The American Church of Religious Freedom is the name that I have given to the religion
of the American people that has existed unidentified within the two "self-evident" truths
proclaimed on July 4, 1776 in the Declaration of American Independence.

Two hundred and thirty-four years ago, this July 4th our nation was as Abe Lincoln said
in his Gettysburg Address "conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that
all men are created equal." Out of this famous proposition of equality authored by
Thomas Jefferson, emerged the co-principle of dynamic force and direction that states
unequivocally in Jefferson’s words that all men are "endowed by their Creator with
certain unalienable rights..."

Ever since that day, the phrase “all men are created equal” has piqued the minds of
great thinkers world wide as to exactly what Jefferson meant by the phrase and likewise
every American citizen has at one time or another tried to understand what equality
means in America. All Americans know that equality comes with the endowment of
“certain unalienable rights” but some Americans are unable to see the reality of
Freedom in their lives under the present U.S. government administration.

In this present day, the American people are very much different from the people of
1776. Americans in those days were all Christian and belief in God was their primary
fortitude. The thirteen colonies were possessions of Great Britain and all of the people
were British subjects. Ever since Henry the eighth was declared the head of, the church in
England in 1532, that nation had been through a series of religious conflicts between the
various Protestant sects and the Church of England and with Catholicism. Many English
people that came to America were members of various Protestant sects or they were
Catholics that wanted to practice their religion without the overbearing pressures of living
in an England wrought by religious turmoil and dominated by a State Religion. The
Americans of that day all believed in Jesus Christ – they just differed as to how to
practice that belief. Jefferson wrote the Declaration of American Independence under
these social conditions. Everybody then knew that Jefferson was writing about the God
who raised Jesus from the dead when he used the word “created” and everybody knew
that Jefferson’s reference to the “Creator” who endows us with “certain unalienable
rights”, is the Creator referred to in the Bible verse in Genesis 1; 27 which says, “And
God created man to his own image; to the image of God he created him; male and
female he created them.”

Fifty-six men, representing us here now and all Americans through all time, at that
historical congress in Philadelphia, signed their names in unanimous agreement with the
Declaration of American Independence authored by Thomas Jefferson. By the agreement
of these fifty-six men, we all who claim to be Americans are each and all committed to
rest the strength of our nation directly upon belief in the one God who raised Jesus of
Nazareth from the dead and on the belief that this one God endows each individual
person with “certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the
pursuit of Happiness.”

If you look closely, you will see that the two “self-evident" truths are a direct reflection
of the Two Great Commandments that Jesus gave when he was questioned about the
greatest commandment of the law in Matthew 22; 36-40. Listen to these words and at the
same time think about the two self-evident truths:

36. Master, which is the greatest commandment in the law? 37.
Jesus said to him: “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy
whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.
38. This is the greatest and the first commandment. 39. And
the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as
thyself.” 40. On these two commandments dependeth the
whole law and the prophets.
It is perfectly clear to me that Thomas Jefferson was inspired by God to translate the two
Great Commandments of Jesus Christ into the Law of Freedom upon which this great
nation of America rests.

Are we not loving God with our whole heart, mind, and soul when we affirm and
acclaim that God creates each of us equal to Himself? Are we not loving our
neighbor as our self when we agree that God endows us all equally with certain
unalienable rights?
Has not Thomas Jefferson placed us safely in the God of Freedom’s care? Yes, he has
because this revelation has been waiting for all of us for two hundred and thirty-four
years. This revelation comes to you now because it is now that it is needed and Jefferson
foresaw this day when government would lose its way.

We Americans of July 4, 2010 are now confronted in our faith in American government
because the citizens who are in control of the government have demonstrated their
corruption by overtly and hard-handedly suppressing the freedoms of Americans; by
interfering with American farmers’ freedom to grow whatever plants they decide to plant;
by making unnatural laws against all of the things which our Creator has made holy for
us most especially Cannabis which is the holy plant of God proclaimed in Genesis 1; 29;
by giving aid to enemy regimes (like Saddam Hussein) and making American citizens
pay for such treasonous aid; by making alliances with enemies of Freedom; by engaging
in unjust wars and causing the death of innocent people; by causing the needless death of
American soldiers in wars of aggression against the peace and liberty of the American
people thereby violating the very principles that are set forth in the Declaration of
American Independence. The regresses for such violations by any government are clearly
declared when Jefferson’s words blare forth as a command to all Patriots:

“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.”

We have reached a juncture point in the expansion of American Liberty where any
“tyranny over the mind of man” needs to be swept aside as “destructive” of the end
purposes of Liberty. Thomas Jefferson clarified his thinking about unalienable rights
when he wrote in 1786 in his Virginia Act For Establishing Religious Freedom that “the
rights hereby asserted are of the natural rights of mankind, and that if any act shall
be hereafter passed to repeal the present or to narrow its operation, such act will be
an infringement of natural right.”

The agreement signed by those fifty-six Americans is the embryonic foundation of the
political system upon which our nation is to be constructed. These defining conditions of
our Democracy are spiritual in nature and constitute the “Spirit of America”. Taking the
“self-evident” truths in a strictly literal sense brings forth a religion of freedom. The
Cambridge Dictionary says, “Religion is the belief in and worship of a god or gods, or
any such system of belief and worship.” The words that define the religion of the
American Church of Religious Freedom are clearly stated when it is written in the
Declaration of American Independence that, “We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all men are created equal and that they are endowed by their Creator with
certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of
Happiness.”

The fifty-six signers of the Declaration of American Independence clearly and
unanimously established “belief in and worship of a god…” in declaring the two “selfevident”
truths.

Is it not belief and worship to recognize and acclaim God as the author of our existence
and of our life in His creation and to recognize and acclaim that this one God endows
each one of us with “certain unalienable rights” which in fact means a primary right of
unrestricted Religious Freedom? Does not Religious Freedom encompass all freedoms?
A citizen's life is freedom of religion because the citizen may define all personal actions
as the expression of his or her own religion. As long as my actions do not violate another
citizen's freedom I am free to live as I see fit and do the things that I deem necessary for
my happiness.

The establishment of this unique American religion as the basis for our Democracy is a
divine act of God which touches each American individually and offers every American
haven and protection against “every form of tyranny over the mind of man” (Tom
Jefferson). “Tyranny over the mind of man” is recognized in our present day American
political leaders. They enact and support laws that are contrary to the natural law of
Freedom because they are godless in their thinking. Their thinking does not joyfully
reflect the goodness and mercy of the One All-Loving God who created us equal to
Himself and endowed us with equal "unalienable rights" but rather their thinking
reflects the twisted and unnatural impulses of self-destruction that are unceasingly
projected by Satan upon all men. I am confident that Tom Jefferson was thinking of
1Peter 5; 6-9 when he made his oath. The Apostle Peter says this:

6. “So humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in
due time. 7. Cast all your worries upon him because he cares for you. 8. Be sober
and vigilant. Your opponent the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion looking
for (someone) to devour. 9. Resist him, steadfast in faith, knowing that your fellow
believers throughout the world undergo the same sufferings”.
I believe that this statement by the Apostle Peter matches The U.S. motto, “In God We
Trust”. The only way freedom can reign supreme over our land is for each American to
trust in the Creator, be confident in the two "self-evident" truths, at the same time be
wise enough to recognize the evil influence that Satan has over the mind of man, and not
allow that influence to tyrannize their own mind.

We free ourselves from this Satanic “tyranny over the mind of man” by joining
Thomas Jefferson in his sacred oath the words of which are etched into the stone around
the rotunda of his memorial in Washington, DC. -“I have sworn upon the altar of God
eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.” -It is obvious
to me that Tom Jefferson recognized that the enemy of freedom was the age-old enemy
of humanity – Satan -and that the battleground was in every man’s mind. Jefferson knew
that freedom was a mental state of peace and good will towards all men. Is not the
ultimate aim of American Democracy that is declared in the Declaration of American
Independence, to live in peace and harmony without fear by placing our complete trust in
the God revealed in the two "self-evident" truths? The God of the “self-evident” truths
judges all men equal to Him and sentences them all to eternal freedom in Joy. There is no
condemnation in the God of America – there is only equality and freedom of eternal Life
in Joy.

The religion unknowingly established by the founders of our great nation, is the mental
tool for Americans to use to free their minds from Satan’s fearful grasp. By prayerfully
contemplating, the "self-evident" truths of Holy Creation and Sacred Endowment,
Americans can commit to trust in God and make themselves feel the Joy of Liberty under
God. It is the feeling of Joy that is undefeatable in a man. Is it not always true that Joy is
Fearless? How can a man feel anything else if he is feeling Joy? The man joyous in the
Creator cannot be enslaved by evil. The courage and strength of America comes through
the Joy of the American people.

I would like to note here that the “Joy of Liberty under God” must first exist as a desire
visualized in the heart of each American citizen. What I mean is that you must force
yourself to feel Joyful immediately, knowing that it is not only logical to feel
continuously Joyful because of your trust in God but also it is the wise thing to do in
order to prevent “any form of tyranny over” your mind. Your agreement to accept God’s
endowment requires you to feel Joy as a demonstration of your trust in God. Your joy
will attract others to you so you may tell them about the American religion found in The
Declaration of American Independence.

You have nothing to worry about if you hope and trust in God. That which stops you
from being worry-free and feeling Joyful is what Thomas Jefferson refers to as the
“tyranny over the mind of man” which means satanic influence of fear and doubt. Your
holding the truths of personal creation and endowment by God as "self-evident", is the
Joy that overwhelms all tyranny over your mind. There is no doubt in Joy – There is only
Faith and confidence in Joy. Command your mind to be joyful at all times and let
yourself be a Patriot in thought, considering the two "self-evident" truths as your reason
for action, dedicated to honoring the Creator and dedicated to respecting the
"unalienable rights" of all citizens.

My conclusion about this truth of the religion existing in the Declaration of American
Independence is that for an American to ethically claim for himself or herself the
“certain unalienable rights” stated as “self-evident” truth, he or she must consciously
recognize and acclaim the Divine nature of the Declaration of American Independence
and consciously recognize and acclaim the spiritual relationship that is established
between every citizen with God. The spiritual relationship between the individual citizen
and all other citizens is expressed, as “E Pluribus Unum” which applied here to
Americans would translate as “one person out of many persons”. I know that many
people interpret the ‘Unum” as meaning one nation out of many people but that is not a
well thought out conclusion. Clearly, the application of the phrase by Thomas Jefferson
would refer to one person as the ideal standard of unity out of all persons, namely Jesus
Christ. The concept of the “mystical body of Christ”, in which Christ is the head of the
body and all humanity are the members of the body is a basic tenet of all Christian Faith.
Applying the concept here in the two “self-evident” truths reveals that God creates all
humans equal to Jesus Christ, with the same rights and authority as Jesus. This reminds
me of what Jesus said to the Jews when they got mad about him saying that he was the
son of God. Jesus answered them: “Is it not written in your law: I said you are
gods?” (Matt 10; 34).

The practical application of “E pluribus Unum” to myself as a citizen is that I think of
myself as Jesus and in that state of mind I then think of each other citizen as Jesus. From
such a viewpoint, I then act accordingly, exercising my freedom without interfering with
the freedom of another citizen. From such a viewpoint, I mind my own business and do
not question another citizen’s personal beliefs nor try to impose my beliefs on another
citizen. I am free to speak my mind and that is the only tool of influence that I value and
use in my relationship with other citizens. Under such social conditions of an enlightened
free people, the only responsibility of a government is to protect all citizens from theft or
harm or any impedance to their liberty. This condition of Freedom does not exist in
America today because the government seeks to invade the personal freedom of
Americans under the pretext of protecting them from supposed evils that the
government has in fact, created out of their treasonous actions.

“Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.” How, you may
ask, may I aid my country? I believe the first thing needed is to take off the fearful
blinders of National security imposed upon all Americans by the government and
corporate controllers of our society who use all means available whether by guile or
force, to manipulate the American people’s lives to comply with the needs of production.
These controllers use the media to manipulate the mood and perceptions of the American
people. They train us to believe that conformity with the system of commerce and profit
is the right thing to do and they condition us to believe that individualism of mind is not
normal. Any human activity that interferes with production is pronounced evil and
punishable; Morality is dictated by bureaucrats whose minds are tyrannized by satanic
urgings of self-destruction. The hearts of these controlling citizens are corrupted into hate
of all that is true and good and their minds construct ideas of death and destruction seeing
that as the way for America to survive. They place no trust in God because they do not
know God. They live among us, pretending politely to be our friends but when they are
alone their minds are steeped in schemes and manipulations tyrannized by Satan. Ask
these citizens if they think that God approves the execution of a citizen and they will say
it is so, which proves they have twisted in their minds the unequivocal truth of every
citizen's unalienable right to life. If you accept the religion of freedom, which God has
endowed us with, then you act as Jesus and you respect the right to life of all Americans
with no exceptions. My God is the Giver of Life and does never take life away. My God
creates me eternally equal to Him in all things and He endows me with His own Self,
which I am. I know that all other humans are the same as I am

I submit to all Americans, that you must accept this Religion of Freedom, approved by
the Founding Fathers of America and you must be wise by willing your entire being to
accept and acclaim this Religion with open arms and a joyful spirit. By doing this you
become a soldier of freedom, ready to defend this nation against “every form of tyranny
over the mind of man.” The weapon you have as a soldier of freedom in America is
your free speech and your Joy. Speak to your fellow citizens about the reality of the
Religion of Freedom proclaimed in the Declaration of American Independence. Join the
American Church of Religious Freedom in the solitude of your own mind and heart by
accepting and acclaiming what the Creator has done.

For those of you who would say “I don’t believe in God” -by your own words you deny
your unalienable rights. Better that you say nothing, or else real Americans will reject
you as un-American because you deny the source and power of American Democracy –
God.

Americans! – Rethink your lives in accordance with the two “self-evident”
truths. Rescind all laws against individual freedom including all laws
against Cannabis. The Creator who has endowed us with His person
makes all things holy including Cannabis.

“And the angel said to Peter
‘Do not call profane what God has made holy’.” (Acts 10; 15.)
