1964 — Supreme Court (quoted below): “This freedom of movement is the very essence of our free society … Once the right to travel is curtailed, all other rights suffer”
2025 — passports and REAL ID require allegiance to whoever runs the government. Those without this social score cannot leave.
Throughout history, pagan governments have enslaved societies when they forgot their moral responsibilities. Abraham had to deliver us from Babylon. Moses was sent to deliver us from Pharaoh. Christ was sent to deliver us from Roman laws. Our greed has now ensnared us back into the grip of Caesar. Roman laws have returned as the law-of-the-land for those who forfeit their rights. But this time around the Lord will not free you from the counterfeit government you worship.
Title 22 US Code section 212:
“No passport shall be granted or issued to or verified for any other persons than those owing allegiance, whether citizens or not, to the United States”
What is this allegiance? Can a Christian really bow down to a different master – Lord – provider – protector?
Christ told us to never swear oaths, Matthew 5:34. Least we be condemned, James 5:12.
Yes, a passport requires an oath under penalty of perjury.
We are all created equal according to the U.S. government founders and according to the Declaration of Independence, but oaths are only taken to superiors, Hebrews 6:16.
THE WELFARE CONNECTION
Socialist Welfare changes your citizenship. Always has. Nimrod, Pharaoh, Caesar are examples.
Ignorance of the law is no excuse.
God hated Esau who, with an oath, sold his birthright for a bowl of welfare. (Romans 9:13, Malachi 1:3).
The Apostle Paul tells us that there are many gods, First Corinthians 8:5. He then tells us that there are people “Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly”, Philippians 3:19
– And welfare is a snare to trap you. Romans 11:9. Quoting King David in Psalm 69:22.
– And covetousness is idolatry. Colossians 3:5. Merely wanting the benefits violates God’s Commandments.
Maxim of law: “The civil laws reduce an ungrateful freeman to his slavery” Libertinum ingratum leges civiles in pristinam servitutem redigunt.
The Expatriation Act of 1868 was passed the day before the 14th Amendment was ratified. It says that you “promptly and finally disavow” any State allegiance when you apply for federal welfare.
The 14th Amendment allows people to receive federal benefits (unstated: to expatriate, change allegiance, chose your daddy). Even the word RELIGION means re ligio, to bind anew. https://webstersdictionary1828.com/Dictionary/religion
While you look up the definition, read Webster’s definition #2. Religion can mean the performance of all known duties to your fellow man. Do you want secular government involved in your religious duties? (Hint: even the Amish lose their religious liberty if they get a SSN, U.S. v. Lee, 455 U.S. 252)
Notice that in the 14th Amendment, you also have to be “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof”.
See Elk v. Wilkins 112 U.S. 94, 16 years after the 14th Amendment, for the extent to which you must be subject. (” not merely subject in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to…”)
Vice President Thomas Jefferson told us that only three federal laws apply to people in states. But you didn’t want this freedom. You wanted a different provider to manage your affairs for you. https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Jefferson/01-30-02-0370-0004
Hint: Citizens are nationals. Title 8 U.S. Code § 1101(a)(21):
(21) The term “national” means a person owing permanent allegiance to a state.
What is your plan to avoid this PERMANENT allegiance, and stand fast in the liberty wherewith Christ has set us free?
Yes, you voluntarily confessed, on a permanent irrevocable federal application, that you wanted others to manage your own affairs for you.
2000 years ago Plutarch said “It is truly said that the first destroyer of the liberties of a people is he who gave them bounties and largesse. ”
Hint: Christians obey the commandments of Christ. If you swear oaths, or sign some document under penalty of perjury, you violate Christ’s commandment in Matthew 5:34.
In a passport case, US Supreme Court Aptheker v. Secretary of State, 378 U.S. 500 (1964), Justice Douglass, concurring, stated:
“This freedom of movement is the very essence of our free society, setting us apart. Like the right of assembly and the right of association, it often makes all other rights meaningful — knowing, studying, arguing, exploring, conversing, observing and even thinking. Once the right to travel is curtailed, all other rights suffer, just as when curfew or home detention is placed on a person.”
In the words of Samuel Adams (who was a signer of the Declaration of Independence, cousin of President John Adams, and an activist at the Boston Tea Party) “crouch down and lick the hands which feed you”
