The Fed Reserve, Shelf Corporations, and You
By Anna Von Reitz
A "shelf corporation" is slang for a corporation that exists only on paper. It has a name, an address (usually in an otherwise vacant house or office), a Registered Agent, a President, a Secretary, a Treasurer, a stated line of business --- and nothing else. These are also called "dummy corporations".
Also in slang, these are used as "storefronts" for all sorts of purposes. To protect assets. To hide actual ownership interests. To launder money. To act as asset holders during bankruptcy proceedings to hide assets that would otherwise be subject to the bankruptcy. To "represent" other similarly-named businesses and organizations for purposes of deceit or substitution. Most recently, shelf corporations have made the news as mortgage holders and mortgage servicing companies and have been used as illegal transfer agents in equally illegal mortgage title foreclosures.
Shelf corporations create a "Business Person" that can be used to do dirty work under cover of the "corporate veil" and then, when the heat is on, they can close up shop, go bankrupt, or simply "sunset" by failure to re-register and pay the fees.
The Scottish Interloper doing business as "The United States of America --- Incorporated" from 1868 to 1907 was a Shelf Corporation. The name was deceitfully similar to the name of our unincorporated Federation of States, which allowed them to access our credit and steal our identity like any other Credit Card Hacker.
Eventually, this dummy corporation from Scotland substituting itself for our actual government acquired so much debt that it was bankrupted by the banks that were extending credit to it "in our names" and those private banks operating under the deceitful name of the "Federal Reserve" took over the Scottish Interloper together with all the business names and assets it had acquired via fraud from us during Woodrow Wilson's Administration.
In this way, the "Federal Reserve" which was really just a private consortium of banks, took over what appeared to be the government, and the criminality that has infested Washington, DC, ever since the end of the Civil War began in earnest.
The banks wasted no time in consolidating their hold on the politicians and members of the military brass, both by carrots and sticks, and settled in to loot the country and the people via a "legal tender laws" and "progressive taxation" and "controlled inflation of the currency". They also broadly practiced "unlawful conversion" whenever possible.
This is the underlying crime used to kidnap land and soil assets via a process of incorporation and traffick them out into the international jurisdiction of the sea, where they can more readily be seized upon and plundered "legally".
Given this history, it should be no surprise that the same charlatans have used incorporation and shelf corporations to steal your identity and credit and to enslave you with their debts.
Here is a famous transcription of comments made by Colonel Mandell House, one of the chief conspirators during a meeting with then-President Woodrow Wilson. This came across my desk again this morning and prompted me to bring your attention to this key time and the issues it generated:
"...Birth Certificates will be delivered to us...to remain economic slaves through taxation, secured by their pledges.....They will be stripped of their rights and given a commercial value designed to make us a profit and they will be none the wiser...Afterall this is the only logical way to fund government by floating liens and debt to the registrants in the form of benefits and privileges....This will inevitably reap to us huge profits beyond our wildest expectations and leave every American a contributor to this fund which we will call 'Social Insurance.'... Without realizing it, every American will insure us for any loss we may incur
in this manner; every American will unknowingly be our servant, however begrudgingly...The people will become helpless and without any hope for their
redemption and, we will employ the high office of the President of our dummy corporation to foment this plot against America."
So what was the "dummy corporation" he referred to?
A new version of the Scottish Interloper calling itself "the" United States of America, Incorporated. The only difference was dropping "The" as part of the name of the offending shelf corporation. Within twenty years, it would be bankrupted for profit, too, as part of the Great Depression engineered by the Federal Reserve Banks.
Yes, the member banks of the "Federal Reserve" created the Great Depression, and then stepped forward as the solution to the problem they created. They created the bank runs prior to The Crash in 1929 to spook the herd and scare the politicians. Then they created The Crash by selling out of the stock market en masse and by prior agreement. In this way, they reduced stock prices to pennies on a dollar, destroyed all the smaller investors, and left themselves in position to come back in and buy up everything for nothing.
They are all poised and ready to do it again.
But, fool me once, shame on you.... fool me twice, shame on me.
When they pull the plug this time, they are all going down for it --- and somewhere in the back of their brains there is an alarm bell ringing, a prickle up the back of their necks, something telling them that despite their nearly infinite arrogance --- the ax is going to fall.
On them.
Couldn't happen to nicer people.
But I digress.... it's the rest of the Colonel's comments that are the centerpiece to think about. Just as the Conspirators used Shelf Corporations to steal the identity and credit of our Federation of States immediately after the Civil War --- and more to the point --- our foreign Federal Government Subcontractors ever since, they also used shelf corporations to steal your identity, too.
By a secretive and undisclosed process of "registration" which gives up your ownership interest in whatever is "registered", the members of the military and the Federal Reserve Banks planned ---with malice aforethought--- to pull off the biggest asset heist in history. They planned the "legal" enslavement of this entire country, and using that as a fulcrum, they then used the same simple diabolical fraud scheme to enslave most of the known world.
Soon after you were born, and without any disclosure to your parents, you were "registered" as a British Territorial Person -- a Foreign Situs Trust, which is a form of corporation --- a shelf corporation -- owned by the British Territorial State-of-State organization operating in your State of the Union.
You were born, for example, as a Texan --- but registered as a British Territorial Person operated under the same name.
The American named Albert Francis Smith looks and sounds identical to the British Territorial Person --- a shelf corporation created by the State of Texas --- also called "Albert Francis Smith".
The only difference is that the American is a living baby with a Proper Name and a birthday, while the British Territorial Person -- a shelf corporation -- has a birthdate --- when the file and the "Birth Certificate" were created a few days or weeks later.
This British doppelganger is presumed to be the inheritor of your name and estate. After seven years, the State-of-State franchise declares him "missing, lost at sea" and an entity with your name which has died intestate as a child, leaves behind an "infant decedent estate" to be administered by the members of the Bar Associations as they see fit.
Now, it's a dead shelf corporation with your name attached to it and the probate judges dressed in black can do whatever they like with it and its assets ---if it has any.
Of course, they self-interestedly presume that all your assets including your body were donated to the British Territorial doppelganger when they administer his estate in their foreign courts. He was a British Subject. He was a ward of their State of State organization. He's their Cash Cow. And he's "presumed" to be both dead and intestate, so he can't possibly show up and protest what they are doing, can he?
And neither can the American he was named after, because the American was just a baby when all this happened.
This is identity theft and human trafficking, unlawful conversion, fraud, inland piracy and so much more.
This scheme was brought to our shores by the U.S. Military and the Federal Reserve Banks as a plan to use shelf corporations as a means to defraud us individually in the same manner that they used shelf corporations to steal the identity and credit of our lawful unincorporated government. It was primarily advanced by our British Territorial Subcontractors operating as "the" United States of America.
Later, 1937, the Pope's Municipal Government got into the same scheme and set up its own set of shelf corporation doppelgangers operating under names like MELINDA ANNE PIKE.
Today, the Municipal Federal Reserve Corporation has been bankrupted in turn, and as a result, Chase Manhattan Bank owns the name "FEDERAL RESERVE" and JP Morgan owns the name "FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD OF GOVERNORS".
What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice.... to deceive....
Deliberate self-interested deceit leading to False Claims in Commerce, Identity Theft, Fraud, Unlawful Conversion and Inland Piracy is the essential problem for all these shelf corporations from 1850 to today. The Federal Reserve, past and present, is responsible for this. The other Principals --- foreign Governments relied upon to honor our Constitutional Agreements and Treaties with them --- are responsible for this.
And at the end of the day, fraud vitiates everything they have done, nullifies everything they've said, demands the return of every penny they've stolen and coerced under false pretenses for 160 years.
Possession by pirates does not change ownership.
The foreign shelf corporations are recognized for what they are. The incorporated foreign Federal Subcontractors are recognized for what they are. And the role of the Federal Reserve in this entire nasty enslavement-by-registration scheme is laid bare for what it is.
This international criminal cartel that operated under the corporate veil to impersonate and steal the credit and identity and resources of this country and its people is no longer protected by any secrecy.
Anyone "registering" any babies in this country is likely to be shot in the coming days and those using the "name of" the Federal Reserve and those manipulating the stock markets and those manipulating the currency and counterfeiting "US DOLLARS" and those thinking that they will gain an ownership interest in living people by shooting them up with genetically engineered bits of DNA or RNA, had better think again.

NATO pushing for Kaliningrad CATASTROPHE by provoking Russia into global nuclear war
The railway blockade of Kaliningrad is obviously a setup to try to provoke Russia into “attacking” a NATO member (Lithuania) so that NATO and the USA can justify a full-scale military assault on Russia. Once again, the neocons are scheming to plunge the world into global thermonuclear war in order to destroy the United States of America while attempting to maintain dictatorial control over the world’s natural resources and monetary systems.
To understand the full dynamic of what’s happening, you need to first learn about the geography of Kaliningrad. This Russian territory sits on the Baltic Sea, providing Russia its only year-round ocean access that isn’t frozen over for part of the year. Kaliningrad is land-locked, however, and not physically connected to the Russian mainland. A railway runs through Lithuania, connecting Kaliningrad to Russia proper. This railway passage has been in place for decades and has always been respected by Lithuania as Russia’s right-of-way to supply Kaliningrad.
See this map from Encyclopedia Britannica. Kaliningrad is shown roughly in the center of this map, to the west of Lithuania:

A LITTLE GUN HISTORY
In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, a total of 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.
China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.
Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, one million educated people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
56 million defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control:
You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians disseminating this information.
Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.
Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!
The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind them of this history lesson.
With guns, we are "citizens". Without them, we are "subjects".
During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED!
If you value your freedom, please spread this antigun-control message to all of your friends.
SWITZERLAND ISSUES EVERY HOUSEHOLD A GUN!
SWITZERLAND'S GOVERNMENT TRAINS EVERY ADULT THEY ISSUE A RIFLE.
SWITZERLAND HAS THE LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE OF ANY CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!!
IT'S A NO BRAINER!
DON'T LET OUR GOVERNMENT WASTE MILLIONS OF OUR TAX DOLLARS IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE ALL LAW ABIDING CITIZENS AN EASY TARGET.
Spread the word everywhere you can that you are a firm believer in the 2nd Amendment!
It's time to speak loud before they try to silence and disarm us.
You're not imagining it, history shows that governments always manipulate tragedies to attempt to disarm the people.

Article V Convention: Will It Work?
https://thenewamerican.com/article-v-convention-will-it-work/
The short answer is NO! Here is why.
America has not had a Constitutional Convention since 1787. The result then was a blessing. But holding a new convention today could end up being disastrous for the nation. This article explains why.

End the Confusion Now
By Anna Von Reitz
There is a Global Family Group Private Membership Association (PMA) that shares a core belief in love being expressed as a specific vibrational state -- a "frequency" of love, if you will --- and they are devoted to exploring this research and the whole phenomenon of frequency being a way to identify various emotional and intellectual states, and how to put this knowledge into practical applications in our lives. It is a budding science and area of exploration. I know that it has acquired somewhat the "feel" of a religious cult, but it is a science, not a religion, that is being applied. This has actual, factual, reproducible mechanics and effects that are being studied --- not just "believed in".
As this new science is being applied many discoveries are being made. We have the beginnings of an explanation to such questions as --- how do we communicate without words? And even across vast distances? How could Jesus and other Teachers know a person's history, without being told anything about them? Is love infectious? How do miraculous healings occur? Why is classical music beneficial to plant growth? How do energy frequencies generated by people affect them? And the world around them?
So you can think of the Global Family Group PMA as a scientific study group --- experimenting with this new knowledge and exploring what they can discover about it and how it may be applied.
You don't have to be a PMA member to have a bank account, which is a separate matter. It is, however, important to be aware of the existence of the PMA, so that you are not confused and can explain that the similarly-named PMA is not the bank and vice versa.
The United States of America (Unincorporated) chartered The Global Family International Trade Bank and The Global Family Bank of Commerce as the first two institutions in our new "Blue Dot Bank System" a year ago. Since then, over a dozen more pairs of banks have been set up with each country having its own international trade bank and its own commercial bank, and all these banks being able to work together in their own system to deal with both actual assets (international trade banks) and commercial scrip (commercial banks).
We decided to work with Global Family Group to develop the bank system because they have the scientific and technological resources needed and they share our traditional American values of freedom, equality, inclusiveness, self-governance, accountability, and simplicity.
Our banks are old fashioned banks. We use carriage accounting. We don't latch onto depositor's credit. We have our own "generations ahead" encryption and transfer system. Everything is simple and self-evident and user-friendly. We have the ability to exercise the American Exchange Rate to convert fiat dollars into silver dollars and have the ability to transfer lawful money or convert it back and forth into fiat. Credit unions in the Blue Dot System are set up to disburse back prepaid credit using Vendor cards to debit expenditures.
This entire bank system is tailored to serve people and small business concerns. Because lawful funds are not subject to seizures and unilateral corporate actions such as "bail outs" and "bail ins"---- our international trade banks are a much safer and more stable banking platform for people's retirement and investment accounts and savings. Our banks also extend privacy that the present banking system does not offer. This is because under the current system, banking and government got commingled, and the consumer's interest got sold out.
This is how the IRS, a private bill collector, alleging debts against commercial corporations named after us, can come into a bank that is operated by the same parent corporation that the IRS works for, and mischaracterize your earnings as "federal income" and garnish your accounts. The banks and the IRS are both franchises of the "government services" corporation that is benefiting from this theft and misrepresentation.
Our unincorporated banks don't allow that.
We stand under Public Law, so we don't have private regulations and private regulators to deal with. The rules are the rules and everyone can read them. We have Bank Stewards to provide Third Party Oversight and a Bank Ombudsman Office to deal with customer complaints. We deliberately keep everything super simple and service oriented. No fine print. No legal jargon. No hidden costs or endangerments.
All the banks in the system share the same charter requirements and the same one-page bank treaty, so whether you are in Bangor, Maine, as or Lagos, Nigeria, you know what the bank charter and bank treaty says. There are no special, different, or secret back door deals. All banks in the Blue Dot System have the same mission, the same requirements, the same agreements. And the Public can read what those guiding principles are. Banks in our system are free to make a profit based on services and products, but profit is not their only reason for existence, and they are free to use bank profits to expand services, fund public projects, or do charitable works in their communities.
Thus, the Blue Dot Banks will have access to philanthropic project funding and will be working side-by-side with project managers to ensure success. As each community responds and brings forward their own unique vision and talents, the Blue Dot Banks will be the "go to" place for funding and project consultation.
Having had a taste of this new system, I can tell you that it is friendly and open --- the opposite of the grim, guarded, funeral-parlor atmosphere that most banks project. The Blue Dot Banks, like the people who own them and run them, are called to be their best and do their best and that is all they have to worry about in the world, because they aren't involved in preying upon others, don't practice usury, and have no secrets. Like a man with a good conscience, they are set free.
We chartered the banks in this system because we have had it with banks acting as corporate predators and as criminal conspirators and getting away with it. We, living people, deserve something different and better. So, this is it -- our Blue Dot Bank System, designed for the security, peace of mind, happiness, and prosperity of mankind. No other agendas.
So, don't worry about the involvement of the Global Family Group PMA as bank members or promoters of the new bank system. They have their own mission and scientific interests that they are pursuing in tandem with building the best and most honest banking system possible. The two separate interests are not mutually exclusive --- in fact, they are complimentary. When everything we do is coming from a place within that is rooted in honesty, simplicity, and yes---- love for mankind, when we stop paying the usury of sin and debt, and start paying the dividends of gratitude and self-awareness, miracles aren't only possible. They are likely.
Onward and upward, as the saying goes. We aren't being impractical. We aren't asking anything from anyone, except a change of mind. Stop worrying so much about yourselves and start thinking more about the world around you. What can you do to help this country and this planet -- its plants, animals, and people? It may be nothing more than picking up a piece of litter, sweeping a driveway, or helping an elderly neighbor mow their lawn. Most of the time our actual "debt" doesn't require heroism. It requires caring.
We have three generations of children in this country who don't know their history and have been taught to have the wrong values in life. They have been encouraged to think of nothing but themselves and their most base instincts and desires. We fell asleep at the wheel and let evil, self-interested, faceless corporations rule the day, and we have paid dearly for that mistake. Now comes the correction that is long overdue. And the Blue Dot Banks are part of that correction.
Assembly by Assembly, group by group, one by one --- open your accounts with joy and confidence. It's our money. It's our assets. It's our credit. We know that now and we aren't going to be deluded into thinking that any of it belongs to a bank or the government or some other corporation. We are the value. This realization paves the way for an entirely new paradigm in banking and in life.
I hope that people read this --- and read again and again as many times as it takes to sink in. I don't want there to be any confusion between the Global Family Group PMA and the Global Family Banks in the Blue Dot Bank System. They are separate endeavors and you do not have to join or have any relationship with the PMA in order to have a bank account.

The controlled demolition of FOOD and ENERGY infrastructure is now under way… prepare or get crushed
https://www.naturalnews.com/2022-06-20-controlled-demolition-of-food-and-energy-infrastructure.html
The global destruction of food and energy infrastructure is accelerating by the day. The goal is rather obvious at this point: To destroy human civilization and starve as many people to death as possible by any means necessary.
Those who don’t yet realize this is happening will be destroyed by it.
Some of the astonishing highlights of this deliberate depopulation scheme are covered in today’s podcast:
- Western Europe’s largest fertilizer manufacturer, CF Industries, has announced it is closing down its UK manufacturing plant (in Chester) and moving administrative operations to the USA, following Western Europe’s “green” war against natural gas (which is necessary to manufacture nitrogen-based fertilizers). (CFindustries.com)
- After ordering airlines to mass murder their own pilots through forced mRNA vaccines, the federal government is now threatening to “take action” against airlines for not having enough pilots. (The Epoch Times)
- In a similar way, the Biden regime tells oil and gas producers they will all be shut down in 5 to 10 years, but that they should hurry up and produce more fuel right now — and shouldn’t be making any profits from it — because the Democrats don’t want to lose the mid-term elections due to people being unhappy about rising gas prices. (CNBC.com)
- An over-pressurized pipe caused a massive explosion at one of the largest Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) hubs in America, which sends 70% of its exports to Europe. (EEnews.net) This explosion is eerily similar to what caused a massive explosion at the Philadelphia Energy Solutions refinery in 2019, which permanently shuttered that fuel refining operation. (CNBC.com)
- Now, the Freeport LNG facility is going to be shut down for the entire rest of the year, taking about 20% of the LNG supply in North America offline. (EnergyNow.com)
- Oil-hating, anti-civilization environmental groups are suing the Biden administration to try to shut down 3,500 oil and gas drilling permits in order to completely collapse all industry and infrastructure, leading to mass starvation and total collapse of society as we know it. (CNBC.com)
- In the state of Washington, pro-vax, pro-mask, pro-abortion Gov. Jay Inslee is now openly warning his citizens to prepare for a summer of “blackouts, destruction and death” while moving forward to shut down four hydroelectric dams, depriving the state of 8% of its current electricity supply. (ThePostMillennial.com)
- Just when you thought you could “go green” and transition away from oil, the EU is about to declare lithium to be a “toxic substance,” which would devastate lithium mining, transportation and manufacturing to create lithium batteries that power much of the green economy. Without lithium, there is no “green” infrastructure. (OilPrice.com)
- Meanwhile, Union Pacific railroad has ordered a halt to carrying diesel fuel and DEF that’s necessary for modern diesel engines, causing fuel outages at Flying J truck stops across the East Coast, including Florida. (NeedToKnow.news)
In addition to all this, we have widespread sabotage (arson) of food facilities taking place across the USA, combined with the illegitimate Biden regime continuing every effort to shutter pipelines, refineries and oil exploration, leading to a collapse in domestic oil availability.
This is why gas prices are skyrocketing, of course, causing higher prices in food, transportation and consumer goods.
It all adds up to the controlled demolition of food and fuel infrastructure for the deliberate purpose of causing global famine, poverty, chaos and death. (And don’t forget that those who were gullible enough to take the mRNA experimental “vaccine” shots are now dying at record numbers from clots, heart attacks and Sudden Adult Death Syndrome).
You are watching a global war being waged against humanity in real time, and only those who prepare will survive. Perhaps 95% of the general population remains completely oblivious to all this, which is why I posted a short podcast reminding us that it’s too late to “red-pill” the oblivious masses:

Second Sunday After Pentecost
Rev. Fr. Leonard Goffine's
The Church's YearINTROIT The Lord became my protector, and He brought me forth into a large place: He saved me, because he was well pleased with me. (Ps. XVII.) I will love Thee, O Lord, my strength: the Lord is my firmament, and my refuge, and my deliverer. Glory &c.
COLLECT Make us, O Lord, to have a perpetual fear and love of Thy holy name; for Thou never failest to help and govern those whom Thou dost establish in Thy steadfast love. Thro'.
EPISTLE (I ,John III. 13-18.) Dearly beloved, Wonder not if the world hate you. We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not, abideth in death; whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer. And you know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in himself. In this we have known the charity of God, because he bath laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. He that hath the substance of this world, and shall see his brother in need, and shut up his bowels from him, how doth the charity of God abide in him? My little children, let us not love in word nor in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
EXPLANATION People who are really pious have always something to suffer from the wicked world, as, Jesus foretold, but they do not cease to love their persecutors as their best friends, and are ready, if necessary, to give their life for ,their enemies, as Christ did. Thus should all Christians act; for the love of our neighbor and even of our enemies is a universal command, a law that binds all; it is the life of the soul. Hatred deprives the soul of this life and makes man a murderer, because hatred is the beginning of murder, and often ends in homicide. By love we know the true Christians. (John. XIII. 35.) St. John even considers love the certain sign of being chosen for eternal life, when he says: We know, we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. Alas! how few will be chosen from among the Christians of to-day, because there is so little love among them! Empty compliments, assurances of friendships &c. love appears only in words, only on the tongue; and such idle, ephemeral, worthless love is found everywhere in this world; but that which is love in truth and reality, which shows charity to the suffering, how rare it is! and yet only to this love is promised eternal life, because it alone rests on the love of God.
GOSPEL (Luke XIV. 16-24.) At that time, Jesus spoke to the Pharisees this parable: A certain man made a great supper, and invited many. And he sent his servant, at the hour of supper, to say to them that were invited, that they should come, for now all things are ready. And they began all at once to make excuse. The first said to him: I have bought a farm, and I must needs go out, and see it; I pray thee hold me excused. And another said: I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to try them; I pray thee hold me excused. And another said: I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. And the servant returning, told these things to his lord. Then the master of the house being angry, said to his, servant: Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the feeble, and the blind, and the lame. And the servant said: Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room. And the Lord said to the servant: Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house maybe filled. But I say unto you, that none of these men that were invited shall taste of my supper.
What as to be understood by this great supper?
The Church of Christ on earth, in which His doctrine and His most precious Flesh and Blood are given as food to those who belong to her; also the Church triumphant in heaven, in which God Himself, in the beatific vision, is the nourishment. This supper is called great, because God Himself has founded the Church; because the Church embraces heaven and earth, hence many belong and will belong to her; and because having ended the contest on earth, she will last forever in heaven. There the saints of God will enjoy the Highest Good for all eternity, and will have nothing to wish for, since all their desires will there be realized. O, what happiness it is that we are invited to His supper, and as guests are nourished by the teachings of Christ, and by His most sacred Flesh and Blood.
Who is it that prepares the super?
It is Christ, the God?Man, who for our benefit has not only instituted His Church to which He has entrusted doctrine and the Sacrament of His Flesh and Blood, but has gained eternal salvation for us by His passion and death, and who has invited us first by the prophets, who foretold Him and His divine kingdom, and afterwards by His apostles, and their successors to His great supper.
Who are they who excuse themselves?
They are principally the Jews who bound by pride and avarice to earthly possessions, and blinded by the pleasures of the world, did not recognize Jesus, and remained outside of His church. By him who said he had bought a farm are understood those who by constant anxieties about the possession of earthly goods, and the riches of this world, become indifferent to eternal salvation. By him who had bought five yoke of oxen, is to be understood that sort of busy men who are so burdened with worldly affairs that they find no time to work for heaven, for they even appropriate Sundays and festivals to their worldly affairs. By him who had. taken a wife, and could not come, are represented the carnal, impure men who have rendered themselves by their lusts incapable of spiritual and heavenly joys. Since these different classes of people do not wish to have part in the heavenly banquet, God has excluded them and called others.
Who are meant by the poor, the feeble, the blind and the lame?
The humble and submissive Jews, the publicans, also the Samaritans and the Gentiles, who did not reject Jesus and His doctrine as did the proud, high-minded, carnal Scribes and Pharisees to whom Jesus spoke this parable. The former faithfully received Him, entered His Church, and became participators in eternal happiness. This is daily repeated, because God excludes from the kingdom of heaven those proud, avaricious, and carnal Christians who are ever invited by His servants, the priests, to the enjoyment of holy Communion, but who reject the invitation. On the contrary God welcomes the poor, despised people, the penitent sinners, by separating them from the love of the world by the inspiration of His grace, and by the adversities which He sends them. Thus, in a measure, He forces them to take part in the spiritual joys of a sincerely pious life in His Church on earth, and in the heavenly bliss of His Church in heaven.
SUPPLICATON I thank Thee, O most merciful Jesus that Thou bast called me into Thy Church, permitting me sc often to share in the banquet of Thy love, and that by Thy sufferings and death Thou hast obtained the joys of heaven for me. Urge me as seems pleasing to Thee, compel me by temporal trials that by the use of these graces I may obtain the place which Thou hast prepared for me in heaven.
MORAL LESSON CONCERNING THE VICE OF IMPURITY
I have married a wife, and therefore I can not come. (Luke XIV. 29.)
From this foolish excuse it would seem as if married life were an obstacle to arriving at the heavenly banquet, whereas lawful, chaste, Christian marriage is, on the contrary, a means of eternal salvation for those to whom the gift of continency is not given. The excuse of this married man was not grounded on his station in life, but on his inordinate inclination for carnal pleasures which render the one who gives way to it, unfit for spiritual or heavenly things, for the sensual man perceiveth not the things that are of the Spirit of God. (I Cor. II. 14.)
Unfortunate indeed are they who suffer themselves to be carried away by their sensual lusts, who give away the priceless jewel of chastity and purity of heart which makes man equal to the angels, (Matt. XXII. 30.) who for a momentary enjoyment of sinful pleasure lose that white and precious garment in which chaste souls will shine for ever in heaven before the face of God! What benefit does the impure man derive from the gratification of vile lust? He gains the anger and contempt of God; intolerable disgust when the sin is consummated; the torment of a remorseful conscience, and unless he repent, the eternal torments of hell, for the apostle says: Do not err: neither fornicators, nor adulterers, nor the effeminate shall possess the kingdom of God, (I Cor. VI. 9, 10.) It is seen from the examples of the Old Law, hove much God hates and abominates the sins of impurity. Why did God regret having created man? (Gen. VI. 6.) , Why did He destroy all except a very few, by a universal deluge? (Gen. VI. 17.) Why did He lay the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha in ashes by pouring upon them fire and brimstone? (Gen. XIX.) Why did He punish the two brothers Her and Onan, by a sudden death? (Gen. XXXVII. 7. 10.) Why did He permit the whole tribe of Benjamin to be extirpated? (Judges XX.) Because of their detestable sins of impurity. And is not this vice an object of the just wrath of God? By these sins an impure man disgraces his body which should be a member of Christ, a temple of the Holy Ghost; he disgraces his soul the image of God, purified and purchased by the precious blood of Christ, and lowers himself beneath the animal, which, void of intellect, follows its instinct; he weakens the power of his body and soul, and ruins his health; he loses the respect of the good, scandalizes his fellowmen, voluntarily separates himself from the communion of saints, deprives himself of the sanctifying grace of God and participation in the merits of Jesus and His saints, and, if he continues like an animal to wallow in this vice, he finally falls into such blindness and hardness of heart that eternal truths, death, judgment, hell, and eternity no longer make any impression upon him; the most abominable crimes of impurity he considers as trifles, as human weaknesses, no sin at all. He is therefore but seldom, if ever, converted, because the evil habit has become his second nature, which he can no longer overcome without an extraordinary grace from God. This God seldom gives, because the impure man generally despises ordinary means and graces, and therefore despairs and casts himself into the pool of eternal fire, where the worm dies not, and where with Satan and his angels the impure shall be for ever tormented.
Do not suffer yourself to be deceived, Christian soul, by the words "love and friendship", which is sought to cover this vice and make it appear a weakness clinging to man. This impure love is a fire which has its origin in hell, and there it will eternally torment the bodies in which it has prevailed. That which God so much detests and so severely punishes, certainly cannot be a trifle, a human weakness! Impress deeply on your heart that all impure thoughts, desires and looks, to which you consent, all impure words, songs, exposures, touches, jokes, and 'such things, are great sins which exclude you from the kingdom of heaven, into which nothing defiled can enter. Remember that he who looks at a woman with a lustful desire, has already, as Christ says, committed adultery in his heart. (Matt. V. 28.) We must, then, carefully guard against "such trifles", as the wicked world calls them, if we do not wish to expose ourselves to the greatest danger of losing our souls. Although it is difficult for an impure person to be converted, yet he should not despair. God does not cast away even the greatest sinner; Jesus forgave the adulteress in the temple, and forgave and received Mary Magdalen. But he who wishes to repent must make use of the proper means to regain the grace of God, and prevent a relapse. Those who have not defiled themselves by the sin of impurity can make use of the following means:
- Constant prayer. Hence the admonition of the wise King; As I knew that I could not otherwise be continent, except God gave it, I went to the Lord and besought him. (Wisd. VIII. 21.)
- Mortification of the flesh by fasting and abstinence. Jesus says these impure spirits can in no other way be cast out but by prayer and fasting. (Matt. XVII. 20.)
- The frequent meditation on the four last things, and on the bitter sufferings of our Lord; for there is, says St. Augustine, no means more powerful and effective against the heat of lust than reflection on the ignominious death of the Redeemer.
- The quiet consideration of the temporal and eternal evils which follow from this vice, as already described.
- The love and veneration of the Blessed Virgin who is the mother of beautiful love, the refuge of all sinners, of whom St. Bernard says: "No one has ever invoked her in his necessity without being heard."
- The careful mortification of the eyes. The pious Job made a covenant with his eyes, that. he would not so much as look upon a virgin. (Job XXXI. 1.)
- The avoidance of evil occasions, especially intercourse with persons of the other sex. "Remember," says St. Jerome, "that a woman drove out the inhabitants of paradise, and that you are not holier than David, stronger than Samson, wiser than Solomon, who all fell by evil intercourse."
- The avoidance of idleness: for idleness, says the proverb, is the beginning of all evil.
- The immediate banishing of all bad thoughts by often pronouncing the names of Jesus and Mary, which, as St. Alphonsus Ligouri says, have the special power of driving away impure thoughts.
- The frequent use of the holy Sacraments of Penance and of the Altar. This last remedy in particular is a certain cure if we make known to our confessor our weaknesses, and use the remedies he prescribes. The Scripture says that frequent Communion is the seed from which virgins spring, and the table which God has prepared against all temptations that annoy us.
COLLECT Inflame, O Lord, our loins and hearts with the fire of Thy Holy Spirit, that we may serve Thee with pure bodies, and please Thee with clean hearts. Amen.

The Feudal Monarchy System v. Our Family of Man
By Anna Von Reitz
The battle actually began when the Israelites demanded that the prophet Samuel appoint a king over them --- a king other than the Lord God. They had learned about this practice from their Canaanite neighbors who had kings--- and there were some obvious advantages to this system of monarchy.
There was always a judge on site, ready to render judgements about whatever question was facing the people. No waiting around for multiple days or months for God to reply through his prophets.
There was the opportunity to develop a stratified crony-based culture. Prior to this, one's position was based on seniority. Elders ruled. The only ones higher than the elders were the prophets, and of course, the Lord God.
Suddenly, with a king, all his cronies got social standing because of their proximity to him. Now you had princes and governors and Grand Poobahs --- and inevitably, a secular government.
The relationship of religion to monarchy has always been the same. Religious leaders (Samuel) choose the kings (Saul), To a greater or lesser extent all monarchies depend on authority garnered from theocracies that preceded them.
Even today, the British Monarchs are sealed into their office by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
But what interest should God have in those who usurp his rightful position?
There have always been those who disagreed with the entire concept of kings-- whether approved by religious leaders or by birthright.
We have always served the True God, the Unseen, and have stood at odds philosophically with all kings --- even when we have been drafted to serve as kings ourselves.
In our view, the Creator is the only King.
In our view, it is oddly, singularly, inappropriate that men should choose other men to rule over them.
God created us all equal, brothers and sisters, all loved, all filled with our unique potential. Who are we to distort nature into an arbitrary pattern of monarchy, pledges, allegiances, and a caste system of social obligations?
This argument has raged for centuries.
I think you can now see why when the opportunity arose to try The Great American Experiment, and found a nation built on the principles of self-governance, we gave our fortunes earned in the Old World to fund a New World --- a world in which individual life was supremely valued, where religious freedom was a birthright, and where no man could stand over another and demand fealty.
America's real enemies have always been the monarchies and the Popes. Whether theocracies or monarchies taking their authority from theocracies, both these forms of government are eternally opposed to freeing mankind and teaching men to be responsible for themselves. Both thrive from making men dependent on them, instead.
So now, you see the two Nanny States on offer:
Candidate Number One: the war-profiteering British Monarchy, steeped in blood and destruction and oppression of "inferior races", which will tell you what to do and think every moment of your lives, cradle to grave, and tax you severely for the privilege of being a pawn in their games.
Candidate Number Two: the equally war-profiteering Papal Theocracy, steeped in blood and destruction and oppression of "infidel races", which will tell you what to do and think and shame and threaten you for every heretical thought from cradle to grave, tax you severely for your sinful nature, and withhold "eternal salvation" at a whim.
Or, you can support what we bravely began here --- a simple secular government in which free men and women accept the responsibility of governing themselves by committee and who hold the natural rights of every individual as something sacred to be protected and preserved and asserted in the face of all would-be kings and potentates.
The members of the Saint Germain Family and the donors of the Saint Germain Trust came largely from France, Hungary, Prussia, and Southeastern Germany. They preserved in their hearts and minds a dream in which the Creator was recognized as the only True King, a vision of a world in which men valued each other, not according to race or creed or wealth or social position, but according to the gifts and contributions each one of us brings forward in life.
That's the dream that founded America and the source of The Saint Germain Family Trust which has underwritten this enterprise since the very beginning.
Today, British attorneys have attempted to unlawfully convert the Saint Germain Trust into a statutory trust and inept and greedy and ignorant men sitting in as officers of the trust have proposed to go along with this subversion, thinking that nobody was left who would recognize it for what it is --- a British con game seeking a means to overcome the trust indenture and plunder the assets.
Thus, we have stepped forward as the Donors of the Trust and objected and put an end to this subterfuge, insisted on the law of the indenture, and approved the prosecution of anyone who continues to interfere with the rightful administration of The Saint Germain Family Trust as an American Common Law Trust in perpetuity.
These funds are meant to underwrite America and the government we founded and the principles we founded it upon. The assets, the gold and silver and other assets in our family trust didn't come from any unnatural source. They came largely from wealthy families allied to Saint Germain, who were sick of the enslavement of mankind to the feudal systems of theocracies and monarchies.
Now, we resist even more vehemently, the specter of Corporate Feudalism, in which faceless, nameless, unaccountable corporations and bureaucrats rule over men of flesh and blood.
Make no mistake, the same Parties who created the Nanny States of the past are also the chief architects of the present horror.
Men like Klaus Schwab propose the Ultimate Nanny State, with all that that implies: rigid, self-interested, political and economic "administration" of everyone else's life, dictating what is politically and socially correct at every moment, choosing our occupations "for" us, determining our life spans "for" us, and ruling with an ever-more mechanized grip devoid of connection to nature and as our Forefathers put it -- Nature's God.
Pope Francis refuses to sit on the Papal Throne, and instead chooses to rule as the dethroned Roman Pontiff, just as Queen Elizabeth II abdicated the Christian Monarchy of St. Edward within three days of her Coronation and has occupied The Chair of the Estates and adopted the Imperial Crown instead.
These are the actions of men and women in the thrall of Mammon, motivated by nothing more than convenience and avoidance of accountability to the people who trusted them --- wrongly --- to protect and preserve their lives, their rights and their property interests.
Come, all you who are yearning for a better life and a better government. Return to Nature and to Nature's God, and take up the burden of self-governance in exchange for your true and eternal freedom. Do not entrust your lives to bureaucrats. Get busy. Participate. Learn. Join us, the Donors of your actual National Trust, the Indemnifiers of your business operations, the Guarantors of your freedom ---- and devote yourselves to the hard work and sacrifice --- but also the joy and security ---- of being the authors of your own fate.
