From my friend Janis
When you are hopelessly
lost and in the ditch, it's time to stop, look, and listen to what the birds and
animals are doing. They are building homes, caring for their young, and all day
long, they are eating and drinking. Have you ever watched birds bathing in the
water? They are so joyous, daily.
When you are so lost,
you don't have a home to live in, you cannot care for your children, you depend
on hand-outs for your food and sustenance. You were conned into selling yourself
for a few dollars, and look where it got you. No one to care about you as you
slide into a deep, dark ditch.
I could go into a long
discussion of how we got into this sorry state, but you don't need to hear that
right now. What you need to know is the way out. It is as simple as crossing the
street. You were meant to lie down in the green pastures, beside the still
waters. God's work, building His kingdom, preparing a table on this critically
abused earth is your job, your work. Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done, on
earth as it is in heaven. Jesus brought the message that it is up to you to
establish the Kingdom of Heaven.

What is to be
done?
Look to the
birds and animals, the wild ones. First of all, no one owns them, they are not
pets. Whereas you became the poodle for Walmart or Halliburton or Goldman Sachs,
the giant multinational conglomerates. And look where it got you: living in a
paper box under the bridge, scavenging garbage bins and dump grounds, searching
for food, living in your car in Walmart parking lot. No one to comfort or care
for you. Come unto me, and I will give you rest. The Kingdom of God is at hand.
Did you ever wonder what the kindom was? Luke 17:21; Neither shall they
say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of
you. Look to the birds and animals for the meek shall inherit the
earth. "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."
(Matt. 6:10). We can rattle the Lord's Prayer off like no one's business. But
have you ever thought of the meaning? Christ states His purpose, i.e., thy will
be done on earth as it is in heaven. Christ intended to establish His Kingdom on
earth. What we must do, is occupy it, as our natural, God-given right. "The Lord
is my shepard, I shall not want." I think we are talking about what you need to
survive. What do you need? Earth, air, food, clothing, shelter, and love. "He
maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name'
sake." It is time for us to occupy those green pastures, and build our homes
among the birds and animals. We need to build a sustainable village and share
the work and the living space and the fruits of our labor. The Beast tells you,
you must pay for your shelter, your food, your water. The Beast tells you, you
must live separately, and in fear of everyone. The only ones to fear are the
Beast (Goldman-Sachs, Shell Oil) and its government agents. You need to live
together, communally. Share the work, and the fruits of your labor. You are your
brother's keeper, and he yours. Jesus was a communist and a
socialist. He occupied the temple, the pastures, and the sea, and He drew large
crowds of followers.
25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for
your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body,
what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than
raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow
not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father
feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one
cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider
the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in
all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. (Matthew 6:24-29)
He told you that
His way was easy and His burden light. He was telling you that you need to give
up the money system and live instead in the Kingdom of God, which He came to
establish on this earth. He suggested an end to capitalism and to live instead
with a socialist system. For this He was crucified. Look at all the witch hunts
we have had whenever people tried to live socially. They are hunted down and
shot, only we don't call them witches; we call them terrorists. Christ came to
abolish the violent, murderous money/market system and establish a peaceful
socialist system, which He called the Kingdom of God.

Luke 17:20-21
20 And when he was demanded
of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and
said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
21 Neither shall they say,
Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
‘The time is fulfilled, and
the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel’” (Mark
1:13-14).
"I must preach the kingdom
of God to the other cities also, for I was sent for this purpose” (Luke 4:43).
Our Father who art
in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as
it is in heaven.
Let us go to farm
and establish the Kingdom of God.
We have to reject money
usuary Market capitalism, and instead live in socialist communes in the green
pastures, beside the still water.

Occupy Wall Street had it
right; they just picked a wrong location. They should have joined with farmers,
with the intent of forming a self-sustained village of about 20 to 80
like-minded people. No small thing. First thing to establish is rules to live by
based on the 6 elements. Remember what a person needs to survive: earth, air,
food, clothing, shelter, and love which without any one of these necessities, a
person will die. The same is true of a community or civilization. But we will
start with a community, which is a living, breathing organism and has needs,
just like a person, for its survival. They are:
-
land base
-
common language
-
common moral code of behavior
-
common religion
-
common government
-
means of trade
-
means of passing on the knowledge
That's all. Without any one of
these, that society will not survive beyond 2 generations. Funny thing. Native
Americans had it right 200 years ago. Isn't it a kick in the head that we must
now rediscover what the Indian way of how to live in order to survive?
