excerpt from "TAXES and SLAVERY"
" Pass The Word
Internal Revenue Service agents,
jurists, and legislators —however august
—certainly should take no offense
at the reminder that, compared
with the Lord, you are chaff that a
mighty wind will blow away. What
system of taxation did the Lord ordain?
Exodus 30:15 tells us this:
"The rich shall not give more, and
the poor shall not give less than half
a shekel, when they give an offering
unto the Lord, to make an atonement
for your souls."
Everyone, rich and poor, is supposed
to pay the same, small amount.
This is not an income tax. The Bible,
unlike the Communist Manifesto,
does not mention income tax. The tax
it does ordain is sometimes known as
a head tax or poll tax. No Internal
Revenue Service is needed to collect
it. The South used to have poll taxes
until the. "Liberals" got rid of them.
The Bible also ordains no tax on land.
Such a tax would mean that at bottom
the government really owns it, is
letting you use it on condition that
you pay, and will confiscate it if you
don't. But, "The earth is the Lord's
and the fulness thereof." (Psalm
24:1)
The money collected in a biblically
based government is used to finance
civil functions only —the
courts and the military — to protect
private property, liberty, and life.
That's all the Bible ordains the government
to do.
From where, then, in a biblically
based government, does the money
for such worthy things as schools,
hospitals, and charity come? It comes
from the tithe. The tithe is a tax
voluntarily paid to the Lord for the
purpose. Notice that the present income
tax pretends to be "voluntary."
Would a biblical system of tithes be
voluntary in fact? How much does
The Bible say the tithe should be?
The Bible says the tithe is ten percent.
Yes, ten.
This means that of all the slave
systems we have looked at — including
our own —the antebellum South
comes closest to biblical mandates in
this regard.
Would you voluntarily pay ten percent
of your earnings to help people
who really need help; for schools and
hospitals — in place of the diabolical
monstrosity from which we are
suffering now?
Brothers and sisters, please keep
the line straight and the joyful
shouts down to a low roar! "
and definitly keep stacking!
Have a blessed day today!
