First Principles: The Magistrate Is Not the King. The People Are the King.

Posted on October 22, 2025 by alohapromisesforever

“This magistrate is not the king. The people are the king.” Gouverneur Morris 

Someone should alert the radical Left that they didn’t even get this one correct. Because the follow up sentiment to this is: That the King is simply the first servant in enforcing the laws of the nation – which of course the president is seeking to do, while those financing the No Kings protest are seeking to set the laws pertinent to immigration aside and protect criminal illegal aliens. Civics education needs to be reintroduced in schools.

In American political philosophy, the Left in protesting “No Kings” are essentially accidentally telling the truth of their end results and discarding the People as the sovereigns of the United States. Simultaneously, they manage to forget that Washington set the terms of the presidency as at best a ‘servant king’ on behalf of the citizens of these United States.

In this capacity, President Trump is performing remarkably well. But not so much if you happen to be a criminal illegal alien, which in real terms serves the purposes of the citizens of the United States. Never before have so many protested without understanding the fundamentals of the first principles of the United States of America. Such ignorance is not to be applauded, but instead the protestors need a class in civic education to correct the mistaken notions that led them to believe they were doing some good for our nation.

Illuminati, Part III: Only the Luddites

Illuminati, Part III: Only the Luddites
by Michael Doyle

Only the Luddites can save us now.
It's the only assurance of privacy, somehow.
Terrorism and pandemics offer the pretense
While the foolishness of humanity has little defense.

Anarchists and the Far Right have to unite,
As we come together to fight the good fight.
In the name of the Father, we rise against the machine.
Technology has come to mean control like never seen.

The New Luddites are making their stand,
Refusing to allow the overlords to take command.
Royal bloodlines hold this nation in our chains.
The song we sing has familiar refrains.

Mass media is now held by an imperial six,
In a news corporate game of pick-up-sticks.
Six control all the biggest news that flows.
By doing so, the elite control what we know.

Or at least, what we think that we know.
It's propaganda provided handily in a row.
What is reported on defines our culture,
As the elites continue to control what they nurture.

Lingering in the shadows is the true power.
The time is coming for it to be their finest hour.
It is said that human population growth must be limited.
This has been a 'truth' that the state has intimated.

Of all the millions who are dying,
It's all for the reasons most call 'lying'.
Population density is found in every major city.
The lives we're living are lived without pity.

Methodically, the elites wish the common man dead
As they silently smile while plotting our dread.
Fluoridating our water supply to zombify the people,
At least those they cannot pacify by the steeple.

Verses of the Illuminati, Part II

Verses of the Illuminati, Part II
by Michael Doyle

Ancient maps reveal the Earth,
Evidencing without any mirth,
That flying machines traced our past,
And left evidence that confused us at last.

Troubling those who would willingly hear,
Unafraid to face the truth without fear.
Come quietly now to the mass revolution.
It's only just a part of our human evolution.

Psychological studies reveal us to be lazy,
But if we have nothing to do, we'll go crazy.
The darker side of every disagreement
Will overcome religion and our current governments.

There are messages to read from outer space,
And they show with clarity an outlined alien face.
Did our ancestors come with an alien authority?
Is this the truth of living in our fake democracy?

The visitors who came are found throughout history,
They are waiting for their time, silently biding in mystery.
All are present, though concealing powers of manipulation.
Is this a conspiracy or is there a clearer explanation?

Spinoff corporations are ruled by a minority,
And they hold the world within a single monopoly.
Banks and bankers are those who are quietly in control,
And not one of these is here for the good of our souls.

It's hanging over our heads like Damocles' Sword,
Is the power and reach of the Financial Stability Board.
International bankers are the masters yielding manipulation,
And only the sky gods know the truth of needed explanation.

It's all there in the trace of bloodlines
Hacked into our mental and media headlines.
Finances are held as they have been throughout history.
It is the theft of our future without any real mystery.

Freedom slips further and further away
As the risks of money become the crypto of today.
Destabilization comes with the Internet of Things,
And computer viruses attack with all that brings.

Near field communication costs our identity,
Disrupting as it will our individual internal integrity.
Bio-implants are the mark of the coming Beast
It is on this that our AI masters will feast.

Given Grace Grows the Church

Posted on October 19, 2025 by alohapromisesforever 
Given Grace Grows the Church
by Michael Doyle

Jews and Gentiles - we are one family,
Worshipping our Lord in the sanctuary.
Each of us lives, and sometimes we sin.
We find comfort in having God as our friend.

Grace is the undeserved love we are given
As each of us comes to faith and is forgiven.
Repentant, we return to a rightful relationship
And find our place again in atoning worship.

Restraining our freedoms in terms of love,
We think of our family as loved from above.
Though legally we are allowed, sometimes we wouldn't.
It's not that we can't, but as believers, we shouldn't.

The strong should bear with others' weaknesses,
Not in pride, but in our god fearing meekness.
Ours is to support those around to be lifted to victory.
In doing so, we bring praise to our God's family.

The base of things is not just about sin,
But we hold each other in honor as we begin.
Side by side, we live this world in our stride,
And in love, while holding up our team without pride.

Church is a refuge for the walking wounded,
Providing a place to be allowed and included,
Accepting each other as servants to the promises made.
We walk the world boldly, no longer afraid.

Instead of the worst, let's try to believe the best,
In all that our team does to hopefully pass the test.
Above all things that we have ever learned
It is that trust given is God's ways discerned.

May it be that the practice of grace served
Will bring about more godly love than deserved.
Let's emphasize things that bring us redemption,
And keep God's path in our steady contemplation.

We are each children of God seeking to do right.
We need to believe this of each of us and hold on tight,
Believing the best of the church in living out grace,
So that in reaching for faith, it is peace we will embrace.

In living this trust among us, we throw out a rescue rope.
We live the benediction stressing our living hope.
Lessons learned in a world of brokenness and despair
Is the hope that God, through us, can somehow repair.

At the foot of the cross, Jesus prayed for all believers
That we not lose our way and fall before our deceivers.
But instead that we unify and as God's family become one
In the name of the Father, the Spirit, and the Son.
