#History. The Supreme Court
Grandpa said: "By our form of government, the Christian religion is the established religion; and all sects and denominations of Christians are placed upon the same equal footing."
PROTECTING THE CONSTITUTION/BIBLE
My grandfather, Samuel Chase, from my grandmother in my father’s lineage, is another of my heroes. My heritage is packed with ministers of the Gospel who were not shy in addressing cultural and political issues. In the early days, church & state were not separated - that is, until Thomas Jefferson got a wild hair up his nose.
THE BACK STORY
Many of our forefathers viewed “politics” as an extension, an overflow, of the Christian faith rooted in their reasons for coming to the new world, now called the United States of America. Due to the active progressives of the Freemason’s religious views of Universalism versus the monotheistic views of Christians, a holy war of sorts broke out between the conservative Bible believers and the high-powered economic reformers of the European Masons.
Power is always based on who is first. Were the Christian Pilgrims the first to arrive on our newfound land via the Mayflower? No, they were not. In fact, the Pilgrims contracted with the European Masons to hitch a ride on the Mayflower, which was owned by Christopher Jones, who often chartered his ship for the European Masons.
Contrary to urban myths, the Mayflower was not the first ship to bring Europeans to America. The Masons established the first officially sanctioned colony in Jamestown, Virginia, thirteen years earlier. It was how Pastor Brewster heard of the New World he was seeking for his separatist congregation, known today as the Pilgrims. Both groups viewed the newfound land as the “promised land.” The Masons for their New World Order, and the Christians for the new land of freedom to worship without secularist control. Pastor Brewster suspected the battle of dominance well in advance. Before getting off the Mayflower, he constructed the “Mayflower Compact” (Nov. 11, 1620), which was centered on the Christian faith and known as America’s first constitution. The Masons didn’t construct their constitution until over 100 years later, which is our present Constitution. However, the Christians had a 100-year lead on establishing Christianity as the new world's primary faith, culture, and governance. This did not set well with the Masons.
From the beginning, we have the setting for the two groups that would ultimately fight over the two beliefs of the new world - Universalism vs. Christianity.
FAST FORWARDING TO 1787
Special Note: Thomas Jefferson is known for many things. Few know just how dangerous this man was in his life’s work of separating the church from the state and advancing Universalism in policies, religions, and education. Thus resulted in being the founder of the public school system and writing the first paraphrased “Bible,” the Thomas Jefferson Bible.
If, then, the courts of justice are to be considered as the bulwarks of a limited Constitution against legislative encroachments, this consideration will afford a strong argument for the permanent tenure of judicial offices."
- Alexander Hamilton
Even though Mr. Hamilton was a big government, enslaver Federalist and founder of the New York Post, he had keen foresight into the future legislative wars of political encroachments back then - 1801.
If we ever needed a pristine example of why justices are bestowed lifetime appointments and shielded from the whims of the electorate and the intimidation tactics of unethical politicians, America's present-day Federalist (Democratic Party) has now provided us with examples our early founders warn us. Alexander said these insightful words:
“Power over a man's subsistence amounts to a power over his will.”
Mr. Hamilton’s words disclose his governing methods and are of absolute truth. As in the case of God’s method of ruling His people, it comes down to who rules the will.
This rule certainly applies to the United States Government. Within a representative democracy, we, the people, rule. While our early founders didn’t realize at the time that this new form of government would one day be its great downfall, the competition to dominate the willpower of humanity soon arrived on their doorstep. Several signers of the Declaration of Independence made an issue over we, the people ruling over that of God's Supremacy – my grandfather, Samuel Chase, was one of them. Even though they compromised by placing In God, We Trust on most government documents, these early forefathers had the insight that in due time, the people would out-power the Supreme authority of the Bible, which is exactly what happened.
The Supreme Court
The United States Supreme Court is the only Court specifically established by the United States Constitution, implemented in 1789, under the Judiciary Act of 1789, shortly after George Washington was selected as the first President. The purpose of the Court was to protect the Constitution itself. Outside of the Constitution, the Supreme Court is considered the highest governing authority in the US Government. Each member maintains their position for life – to avoid all political debauchery that comes with elected officials.
My grandfather, Samuel Chase, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court -1805, said these words to our early government's power players.
“Religion is of general and public concern, and on its support depend, in great measure, the peace and good order of government, the safety and happiness of the people.”
He had no clue what he said would come back to haunt America. He went on to tell them this.
By our form of government, the Christian religion is the established religion; and all sects and denominations of Christians are placed upon the same equal footing, and are equally entitled to protection in their religious liberty.
Since he recognized the potential concern that “Christians” would be excluded from religious liberty, he went on to say…
The jury (Supreme Court) has the right to determine both the law and the facts.
After connecting the dots for these early leaders, Thomas Jefferson attempted to impeach him as Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court & remove his signature from the Declaration of Independence. The House impeached him on the grounds of letting his partisan Christian leanings affect his court decisions. Since Christians dominated the Senate then, he was acquitted and remained in office. While remaining neutral in party partisanship, he dedicated his life to defending Christian religious liberty as a Supreme Court justice. To that, I say, Thank you, Grandpa.
Does all this sound familiar? Liberal leaders tend to use the issue of partisan bias to eliminate religious liberty. Secondly, these same leaders use this issue to block the Supreme Court from doing their job, which has the right to determine what the Constitution says while ruling on it.
The Real Chief of Justice
Without question, we live in troubling times. Today, people tend to tell God what He means by what He says. Since democracy grants we, the people, to rule with self-opinion, this habitual ideology has spilled over into the spiritual lives of the masses – covertly claiming God must change His will for the will of the people. Contrary to the opinionated, this madness method has found its way into the minds and methods of liberal and indwelt believers.
The United States Constitution is the “Bible” for we, the people. It is our moral and governing compass. Without it, the system, and its people, would live in constant chaos. While liberal opinionates continue to press the boundaries of our Constitution, it still rules the people. Some of these incumbents are proposing a rewrite of the Constitution. This is an admission that our country’s structure & function is truly managed by a “Bible” of sorts. However, their rewrite of the Constitution is rumored to be much like many post-truth Bible translations on the market. If I could be so bold as to revise Hamilton’s quote, I would say…
“Power over a man's existence amounts to a power over his will. Power over a man’s culture is to have control over his ‘Bible.’”
Whether we are talking about the Constitution that rules a country or a Constitution that rules the Church, the methodology remains the same. The person, or people, that control the verbiage & its definitions rules the people. Any form of governance, including the Monarchy of God, knows this to be true. It is the reason God gave His people the Word of God. The founders of this country developed the Constitution on the effectiveness OF the Bible, more so a rewrite of the Mayflower Compact. This is also the reason Alexander Hamilton started the New York Post. To this day, his company manipulates and manages the beliefs of the generalized public. He knew exactly what he was doing when he started the first “cultural bible” for daily readers.
So, who is God’s Supreme Court?
To answer this question, you have to think & study the Word in the context of Monarchy. On the throne, you have God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As noted in the book of Revelation, there are 24 elders, justices of sorts. Finally, you have the angels, mirids of them. These workers carry out the mandates and “happenings” of the decisions first made by the triune of God. Secondly, we have the eldership surrounding their throne, who base their decisions on the Word of God – the eternal Constitution. So…where does the Bride of Christ come in? We are seated at the right hand of the King of kings – Jesus (Colossians 3). The Bride doesn’t make decisions; she reinforces the decisions of the King.
As for the ejected secondary powers, Satan & his demons – they were removed from the Holy Monarchy's organic structure due to liberal, rebellious acts. Satan then set up his form of governance – a dictatorship that closely aligns with socialism. As most well-studied eschatologists know, he rules the earth's people from a dictatorship camouflaged in we the people. He deceives the people into thinking their opinions matter. In his reality, that is a joke. If anyone knows much about the antichrist, they know Satan is a one-world dictator that leads the people in modalities that benefit himself. His method includes imparting the illusion that the people have control. In the meantime, he manages the masses like puppets dangling on strings, ultimately taking every ounce of control from humanity.
In our analogy, we discover the two types of governments of the end times – Monarchy vs. Socialism. So, what happened to representative democracy? It fades into a radar blip on the screen of history’s failed governance. Socialism is nothing less than a Monarchy led by an anarchist, another descriptive for a leader refuting another leader's leadership. That would be Satan.
All of us have a history. All of us have a future. The question becomes, are we afraid of looking into our past to understand our present? So many Christianized views today are deceptively weaving historical revisionism into our thinking. When I bump into those that either ignore their past, refuse to look at it, or attempt to revise it, I remind them that this is why God gave us the Old Testament. While most think the OT has little redeeming value, the “they” are dead wrong. The last time I checked, the eternal Constitution of the Kingdom of God contains the Old Testament (past), New Testament (present), and the book of Revelation (future).
The Constitution of the United States has a past. We, the people, live in the present. As outdated as this document appears, it is relevant today – just as the Word of God. And, by the way, it contains the answers to our future.
One thing is clear: The Founding Fathers never intended their nation to be “up for grabs” by a society tirelessly working to undo what they gave their lives to establish. As I study our forefathers' history, I find a repetitive message – their understanding of Romans 13:1-2.
“Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. There is no authority except from God, who establishes those that exist. Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God, and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves.” (Romans 13:1-2)
The difference between yesteryears and our trending modalities of today – today, our leaders have forgotten the foundation of God being the One who established all authority, good & bad. As dully noted by researchers, the culture as a whole refutes authority. The outcome? We, the people, are lost in our self-justified “rights.”
THE MAYFLOWER COMPACT LOST
Not only did the early American Christians lose the battle over a separatist Christian Constitution, the Mayflower Compact mysteriously disappeared. However, John Carter Brown penned a copy before it went missing. Read it HERE.
I will close with a quote from Abraham Lincoln, which also applies to the eternal Constitution.
“Don't interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties.”

Well they certainly didn’t teach all that in school literature. We home schooled our 8 but some through charter schools online. A lot of revisionist history being taught. Even different from what we learned.
