Why does
humankind desire freedom and liberty? In opposition to God’s Economy, much of
mankind still labors under the imposed rules and laws of an unequal economy
without knowing why. We are either free to choose or not. In America our
choices diminish by the minute today. What was originally a foundation based
upon principles for hope of a better future, is now a disdain for all
principles originating from God. Our Creator is now placed at the back of the
rooms and halls of education and told to shut up because of that contempt.
Thus, freedom is taken away and replaced with fear that something more valuable
can and will be taken away in the future. That future has been here for longer
than most know.
“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom
ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the
other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but
as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15
The modern
Amorites have infected our government. They preach the doctrines of men rather
than the doctrines of salvation. And it should seem a simple task for men and
women in government to choose whether to serve We the People before choosing
for themselves or serving the gods of their fathers on the other side of our
Declaration of Independence. Denying the existence of a Creator will not make
Him go away. For this sole purpose was mankind given breath and freedom to
choose good or evil.
“And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between
to opinions? If the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then
follow. And the people answered him not a word.” 1 Kings 18:21
Government
cannot answer that question nor can it circumvent, through legislative powers,
one of the most important articles of our liberation from oppression of the
state.
Ways You Can Capitalize on Your Freedom of Speech
The good news is that the First Amendment still exists. It’s
part of the Constitution and you have every right to protection that it offers.
But here’s the bad news: If we don’t start standing up for our rights and using
these freedoms, they’ll start to fade. And while it might take 10, 20, or even
100 years, the government will take these freedoms from us. Now is the time to
stand up. Here are several ways you can do it:
Ø
Publish your own content. While platforms like
Facebook might silence conservative content and talking points, there are
plenty of other ways to let your voice be heard online. For example, you can
always start your own blog. In fact, The Blog Starter will show you how to do
it in just 20 minutes. And once you’re up and running, you can begin publishing
content and ideas for meaningful dialogue.
Ø
Engage thoughtful discourse. When you do spend
time on traditional social media platforms, make it a point to only engage in
thoughtful discourse. In other words, stay away from the toxic, argumentative
traps that other people lay. Instead, join groups and make friends with those
who are willing to look at both sides of an issue. The more these types of
conversations are pushed to the top, the more media platforms have to give room
for objective discussion.
Ø
Support First Amendment groups. Finally, put
your money where your mouth is. Find free speech groups that you believe in and
support them with your time and dollars. Oftentimes, this is the best use of
your resources. They have the ability to pool money from thousands of different
places, which gives them the power to spark change.
