Michigan Court Case - Part 3
Copied from the sermon notes of Pastor Don Elmore
August 12, 2018
Scripture Reading: Revelation 2:14-17
14) “But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Baalim, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
15) So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans which thing I [Jesus the Christ] hate.
16) Repent, or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of My mouth.
17) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth except he that receiveth it.”
On July 20th, 2018, I received an email from the lawyer of the two prisoners in the Michigan jail system, who had filed a law suit against the state of Michigan for their decision in not allowing them the opportunity to participate in a separate Bible study and worship group in the prison. This email came about a month after I had a short talk with the lawyer about my being the “expert witness” in the case in the place of our co-pastor, Mark Downey. Even though everything seemed to be a go, the lawyer and his associates had determined from our short talk on the phone that I would not be a good “expert witness” in the case. I didn’t think that I was auditioning for the role.
This was after a brief meeting with him on the phone in which he informed me that the state would pay for all my expenses and I should write a paper like Mark did and I would be paid for that too. (Mark wasn’t paid by the state for the paper that he wrote). They would even pay for me to fly to Grand Rapids, if I wanted that mode of transportation. I said that I would drive to Grand Rapids. Nevertheless, he declined my acceptance of the prisoner’s invitation to be an “expert witness” in their case and didn’t inform me of his decision until almost four weeks later. I wonder how much longer he would have waited if I didn’t initiate the call? So, I will not be an “expert witness” in the case, but I plan to go and hear what happens in this law suit in Michigan.
Every other group is permitted to meet with their own groups on a weekly basis in Michigan’s jails: Jews, Muslims, Judeo-Christians, Roman Catholics, etc., but Christian-Identity is forbidden to meet because they are thought to be too violent a group. Now, the Muslims were included on the violent group list, but the prison met and decided that they should be allowed to meet anyway. So, that is not fair and that is one point that should be presented by their lawyer in the case. We discussed that situation in our talk. Even the lawyer brought it up and stated that he would pursue that point in the trial.
This sermon would be what I would tell the judge, if I was given the opportunity to be an “expert witness” in the case. It would not be exactly as it is given here, but all the points would be given in my statement.
My first point agrees with what Pastor Ramsey said in his email to me:
“It seems clear to me [Pastor Ramsey] that they do not have a reasonable criterion to determine if CI is violent or not. Violent compared to what? Does anyone have any record of Baptist members who have committed violent crimes, or Presbyterians, or Jews, or Muslims, or any other group. Did the organizations approve of the violence committed by these other people? It’s the old strategy that no one can accept…There is no way to prove anyone will never be violent.”
I value Pastor Ramsey’s comments very much, as he would make the best “expert witness” of them all. He has the experience with courts, jails and the entire legal system. He led the fight against the Nebraska Board of Education in their quest to have all church schools meet the state’s requirements and not the church’s. He was a person who did not back down from the enemy.
Groups that are called Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, Episcopal, Quaker, Roman Catholic, Mormon, Jewish, etc., all have had members who have committed violent crimes. I am sure that they can come up with a few from Christian-Identity churches too. They even rushed to judgment about the young man who had attended Cooper High School, which is located right near where we meet, and assumed that he came to our church. He later moved to Ohio and then was involved in the incident at Charlottesville. We had never heard of that person. He probably never heard of us. He probably still hasn’t.
Even the Quakers have had a few violent members, even though their churches profess a pacifist stance. We are not pacifists. We believe that we have the God-given right to defend ourselves. We are not going to let someone attempt to bash someone’s head in without attempting to stop the perpetrator.
“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the democracy for which it stands,….”
I thought it was okay for any citizen to criticize what the government was doing, as long as you don’t incite the hurting of anyone; especially if it did something that is opposed to your beliefs. That is the basic principle of a democracy, for the people have a right to advocate for what they believe. For example, we oppose our government’s stand on:
- Abortion, or the murdering of babies in the womb,
- Same-sex marriages,
- Race-mixing, or inter-racial marriages,
- Serving the Mass of Christ and Ashtaroth (Easter),
- Sodomite protection laws,
- Pornographic images and pictures,
- Feminism,
- Using divination and enchantments,
- Forsaking the LORD God of Israel,
- Worshipping the host of heaven,
- Prostitution or illicit sex,
- Doing things, the way the Canaanite heathen would do,
- Disobeying the commandments of God,
- Toleration of all religious views,
- Partaking of the supposed body and blood of Jesus Christ through the elements of unleavened bread and wine.
- Etc.
All these practices, which our government permits, are against the laws of Israel. Judeo-Christian churches teach its members that most of these things are okay to do to. Don’t we have the right to try and change these rules, as they were changed in the recent past. For example, it was against the law in most states to permit any interracial marriages, until the Supreme Court ruled in 1967 that it was against the 14th amendment. Then what was illegal became legal. It was illegal for many, many centuries before it became legal.
In 1973, in the infamous court case, Roe verses Wade, the Supreme Court ruled the abortion was now legal in all the states with few reservations. There were sixteen states that declared abortion illegal under any circumstances. Others permitted abortion if the pregnancy was the result of a rape. And the Supreme Court failed to say when life begins: at conception or at birth or sometime in between. They just said that for this decision it didn’t matter. It was illegal for many, many centuries before it became legal.
In the early days of our country, the Mass of Christ and Easter were not celebrated. The Pilgrims and Puritans in Boston made it a law that anyone who celebrated either of these days were subject to a fine. And these days were all considered to be work days unless they fell on the Sabbath. It wasn’t until after the War Between the States that these two Roman Catholic holidays became popular. It was illegal for many, many centuries until it became legal, except in Roman Catholic countries.
I will now discuss the third reason listed above: Why we are against race-mixing or inter-racial marriages. Race-mixing and interracial marriages were forbidden in most states until 1967. Why?
It was because all races were not believed to have come from the same father and mother. Now, it is very common to hear from the pulpits in America that people of all races are brothers, because there is only one race—the human race. If one is to believe that all men and races came from the same two parents, then that establishes a justification for integration of the races and their intermixture.
Likewise, if we go to the other end of the spectrum, and believe that all races have the same destiny, it too establishes a justification for interracial marriage. It all comes down to whether we are going to believe the whole Word of God and other supporting facts of life or the haphazard, inconsistent universalist interpretation of the Bible.
But if that is true, then no race is older than 6,000 years, and all their ancestors lived to be almost 1000 years old until the flood of Noah. And then we start all over again, as the population of the earth was reduced to just one family: eight people. All the people of the world are descended from Noah and his wife through one of their three sons and their wives. So, all the people of the world must start over again, and the oldest country would be less than 4500 years old. That wouldn’t be evolution, but devolution.
And we have the nonsense that some preachers, teachers and historians teach that each of the three sons of Noah had a wife that was of a different race. Then we have the story of the Tower of Babel, where all the people of the world were living at the time, and then when they were scattered, they went to live with the people who spoke the same language as they did. The difference between the flood of Noah and the Tower of Babel is over 300 years. Figuring a growth rate of 3.5%, the population would be 92,000 for the time of the dispersion from the Tower. Then the people must go to their separate continents to live. Christian-Identity does not believe such nonsense.
Most of the earth would have been vacant of any human being for a long time, as the world increased in population from, at first, just two people and then, 1500 years later, from just eight people. And after the flood the length of years that a person would live was drastically reduced until it reached about 70 years as being the normal age of death. But don’t tell this to historians, or archeologists, or anthropologists or Christian-Identity people as they will prove all the above statements as being nothing more than “fables.”
And it is not just the color of their skin that is the difference between the races. Hair color and structure, body structure, brain structure, etc. are all different. If they had the same father and mother, then you would think that these would all be the same. But they are not.
And how could you have two people who are “pure” Asians, for example, if they came from the same parents that every other race had? Most Judeo-Christians teach that Adam and Eve must have been a mid-brown color, and from these two people all the races of the world have descended. From two mid-brown people have come two “pure” white people, two “pure” Asiatic people, two “pure” black people, etc.? That is nothing more than a “Jewish myth.”
Jesus the Christ even said that there are at least two different groups on the earth. One has as their father, God; and the other has as their father, the Devil. With all the race mixing that is going on in the world today, there soon will be only these two groups of people on the earth. Why would one person from one group want to worship with another person from another group? It would be impossible for him to do so.
The Communist (Jewish) Party has stated that it is their desire to rid the world of “white supremacy.” To eliminate this, their plan is very simple: just get rid of the white race. How can they do this? Abortion, wars, disease, homosexuality, and race-mixing. The first four reasons will kill off the race; the last one will make the offspring of the Israel race a hybrid. If they are successful, then all the Israel race will be non-white. And God’s people will be no more on the face of the earth.
Richard Nikolaus von Coudenhove-Kalergi, was a Freemason and President of the Pan-European Union (founded in 1923 and subsequently financed by the Jew, Max Warburg), who wrote the following passages in his book, “Praktischer Idealismus, (Practical Idealism)”
“The man of the future will be a mongrel. Today’s races and classes will disappear owing to the disappearing of space, time, and prejudice. The Eurasian-Negroid race of the future, similar in its outward appearance to the Ancient Egyptians, will replace the diversity of peoples with a diversity of individuals. What mainly separates the Jews from the average city dwellers is the fact that they are inbred [mongrel] people.”
A few wise people in the United States were awakening to this Jewish plot when in 1950, the “Christian Anti-Jewish Party,” of Atlanta, Georgia, published a flyer which reads as follows:
“JEWISH LIFE, official organ of the Jewish section of the Communist party, in its June 1950 issue on page 8, states:
“Our job as Jewish Communists is to take the lead in educating the Jewish masses on the meaning of white supremacy and to enroll the Jewish community in an all-out fight against it. This is paramount in our work in the struggle for negro rights. This is vital to the struggle of the Jewish people for their own security and future.
It has surprised some people to find out that the president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People {NAACP} is NOT a Negro but the Jew Arthur Spingarn. It is the Jews who are leading the fight to destroy segregation in Atlanta schools.
The NAACP is sponsoring suits all over the country and in the U.S. Supreme Court to break down Racial Segregation and open up our White schools, restaurants, buses and hotels to negroes. All-important Jewish organizations are against Segregation and have petitioned Congress for an anti-White FEPC law.
A Jew, Julius Rosenwald, spent $30 million financing organizations and writers that promote mongrelization. A race once mongrelized is mongrelized forever.”
Their warning went unheeded and thus their fears became reality.
What does the Bible say about all this?
Numbers 25:1-3:
1) “And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people [Israelite] began to commit harlotry with the daughters of Moab.
2) And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods; and the people did eat and bowed down to their gods.
3) And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor; and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel”
Why was the LORD God of Israel so angry against His own people? It doesn’t say that He was angry at the Moabite people, it says that He was angry at His covenant people. Why? The answer is the answer to this court case. It is the reason that the two prisoners cannot worship with any other group that is in the jail. Israel was worshipping the god of the Moabites, and had forsaken the worshipping of the God of Israel. And that made their God angry at them.
Any non-Israelite, racial, stranger was forbidden to enter the temple of God in Jerusalem. How is that different from any non-Israelite being forbidden to enter any church of Jesus the Christ? Israelites were the only ones who had the offering of the red heifer which guaranteed one year of forgiveness. How is that different from saying the LORD Jesus the Christ died only for His people?
Judges 2:11-13:
11) “And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim.
12) And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people who were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD to anger.
13) And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.”
What gods did this generation of Israelites serve? The Israelites forsook their God, the God who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and served the gods of the people who were round about them. What was the consequence of them doing this? They provoked the LORD to anger.
Can Israelites today forsake their LORD? Can they serve the gods of the people that are round about them; the people who serve the god of the Muslims, the people who serve the god of the Jews, the people who serve the god of the Roman Catholics, the people who serve the god of the Judeo-Christians, the people who serve the god of the Mormons? Yes, they can. And the majority are doing it.
Scott and Jim do not want to participate in this abomination to their God. They do not want to make Him angry at them. They don’t want to make the same mistake that their fathers made in ancient Israel. Is it Michigan’s right to forbid them to worship their God?
Judges 10:6-7:
6) “And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not him.
7) And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the children of Ammon.”
It is plain from these scriptures that Israel could not worship the gods of any other race of people on the earth. They could only worship the God who had brought them out of Egypt and the God who had made a covenant and swore an oath to Abraham, confirmed it with Isaac and with Jacob and his seed. God spoke this commandment from the mount after His people were saved from slavery in Egypt:
Exodus 20:2, 3:
2) “I am the LORD thy God, who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3) Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”
Israel was commanded not to have any other gods. They were not to be tolerant of the way that the other races worshipped their gods; their rituals, their practices, their images, and their laws. They were to destroy their altars and Israel was commanded to not marry any one of the Canaanites.
Deuteronomy 7:1-4:
- “When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land where thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou,
- And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee, thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor show mercy unto them.
- Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son.
- For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods; so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly.”
Ask any Judeo-Christian church if they will perform the marriage of one of their members with any person of any other race—and the clear majority of them would agree that they would. Ask any Christian-Identity church the same question and you will get a different answer. A answer that agrees with ancient Israel’s law that God gave to them exclusively. Christian-Identity churches will not have any one who is not an Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Scandinavian, etc. in their church.
I don’t hate blacks. I don’t hate browns. I don’t hate reds. But I do hate the Canaanites, the Kenities, the Shelahites, Ashkenazi’s, and the Edomites—today’s Jews. For Jesus said that their father was the Devil and that they would do the lusts of their father. He hated Esau and the Amalekites and the things that they practiced. How can His people love those whom their Father hates?
The blacks, browns and reds are not like the Canaanites (Kenites, Shelahites, Ashkenazi’s, Edomites). The Canaanites, in their “holy” book, the Kabbala, says that Jesus the Christ was born of a prostitute, Mary, and a Roman soldier. He was a bastard and committed many sins. He is now in hell, boiling in a pot of hot excrement.
The religions of the rest of the world do NOT say these contemptable things about our Kinsman-Redeemer. The Muslims say that Jesus was a prophet of God, but was earlier than Muhammad, who was the last prophet. Most of the other races say that Jesus was a good man, some say that He was a good teacher, some say that He was the Son of God, but none say that He is now in hell, boiling in a hot pot, except the Jews!
Judges 10:6, 7:
6) “And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not Him.
7) And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the children of Ammon.”
Notice, God’s punishment was to sell the children of Israel into the hands of the people who were the Baal worshipers. You would think God would try to get them away from there. No—God’s punishment was to give them into the hands of those people who worshipped Baal and these other gods.
But this happened repeatedly. Why did God send Israel into the Assyrian captivity? The reasons are found in:
2 Kings 17:6-9:
6) “In the ninth year of Hoshea, [King of Judah, the southern kingdom] the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
7) For so it was, that the children of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt and had feared other gods.
8) And walked in the statutes of the heathen [they did the thing that the heathen believed in], whom the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made.
9) And the children of Israel did secretly those things that were not right against the Lord their God…”
We live in a nation where hundreds of millions of people are doing these very same things that we read of in 2 Kings. And it is not just the people of other races, it is the Israel people that are doing them too; the Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Scandinavian, Germanic, and kindred people.
2 Kings 17:15-17:
15) “And they rejected His statutes, and His covenant that He made with their fathers, and His testimonies which He testified against them and they followed vanity [lies, false teachings or false doctrines], and became vain, and went after [intermarried with] the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the Lord had charged them, that thy should not do like them.
16) And they left all the commandments of the Lord their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven [they began to worship the stars, sun and moon, trying to read their future] and served Baal.
17) And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the Lord to provoke Him to anger.”
Practically every church in America, by their doctrines, are destroying the Israel people. Almost every church in this once Protestant nation tells us that we are not the Israel people. I don’t know of any doctrine that can destroy our people faster and more surely than by telling them that they are not Israel. If we are not Israel then it is much easier to convince our people to do things as the heathen would. It makes our race equal with all others.
The modern-day Canaanites are still causing God’s covenant people to forsake their God. They have been allowed to come into this land that God gave to Israel. They produce the movies, they print the magazines, they write the pornography, they print the newspapers, they ran the ships that brought the slaves to the land, they ran the auction houses that sold the negroes from Africa as slaves, the distribute the dope, they formed and run the organizations such as the NAACP and the Congress of Racial Equality. They promote interracial marriages and same-sex marriages. They promote prostitution and illicit sex. They are the leaders in telling our government to promote homosexuals and transvestites. They are the leaders in feminism and abortion. They are the ones who say that God’s law is now no longer in affect. It is dead. He is dead. And the white man is blamed, the Jew is the victim.
Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel guides Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in the 1965 March on Selma. In fact, there are only two black men in the picture.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 were drafted in the conference room of Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, under the control of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, which for decades was located in the Center. The Jewish community has continued to press for government legislation to undermine traditional American culture and wholesome family values through their support of affirmative action giving preferential treatment to not only blacks but also gays and lesbians.
Thank God for Scott and Jim. They desire to worship the God who brought their fathers out of Egypt. How could they worship with a group of Roman Catholics? How could they worship with a group of Jews? How could they worship with a group of Judeo-Christians? How could they worship with a group of Muslims? They have a different God, the God of the Bible.
They would disagree with their LORD if they attempted to do such a thing as the state of Michigan suggested to them. They would be with people who teach doctrine that is the opposite of what they believe. And in some cases, they are being asked to worship with their enemies and with their God’s enemies.
They are like the three Hebrew men who refused to worship the way that the king Nebuchadnezzar wanted them to worship. They refused to bow down to the image that the king had made. As a result, they were determined by the court to be guilty and sentenced to death in a burning furnace. They were cast in the furnace, but their clothes did even smell of smoke. There was a fourth person in the fire with them. They survived a furnace that was seven times hotter than a normal furnace.
The three Hebrew men did not want to entangle themselves with any false doctrine of any other race. They remained true to their own God. They refused to bow down to any image that the king had made. It was only their God that they served.
May the judge decide on the side of Scott and Jim, as Nebuchadnezzar did after the three Hebrew children were cast into the fiery furnace, but were not harmed in any way. Nebuchadnezzar realized that only the God of the universe could have saved these three Hebrew children. He then made a decree to all his people that the three Hebrew men be allowed to worship their own God and that no one be allowed to say anything amiss against the God of the Hebrews.
Daniel 3:28-30:
28) “Then Nebuchadnezzar spoke, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent His angels and delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and hath changed the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.
29) Therefore, I make a decree, that every people, nation, and language, who speak anything amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a refuse heap, because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort.
30) Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego in the province of Babylon.”
As Jim stated in his sermon last week:
“Just as Martin Luther discovered a long-hidden Bible doctrine, so Christian Identity has discovered a hidden doctrine – the racial identity of true Israel. We will hold to sound doctrine even though the rest of the church world believes fables. Spiritual light will remove the ‘darkness’ of our age. Christian Identity is the only theological movement that can continue the Reformation. Five hundred years and Protestantism needs reforming again.
Five hundred years is hard to wrap our minds around. That is over double our history as a nation. It’s even longer than the children of Israel were in Egypt or the timespan between the Old and New Testaments.
But if it’s hard to fathom five hundred years, it’s harder still to fathom what our lives would look like today had the Reformation not taken place those many years ago. God used the Reformers to break the political power of the Roman Catholic Church, bringing widespread use of God’s Word and leading Europe out of the Dark Ages.
But here we are in the ‘dark ages’ once again! So much so that we need a new Reformation! And, what do I mean by a new ‘dark age?’ It includes the rise of papal power in the guise of Protestantism, political and religious manipulation, abuse and widespread ignorance of the masses, just like before; but today’s ‘dark age’ includes the racial aspect (unlike the past). Aliens of every dark shade continue to flood into the country unabated, either legally or illegally, and the ‘churches’ are welcoming them in! What a sin.”
Free speech is meant to protect unpopular speech. Popular speech, by definition, needs no protection. Did the churches that were in the protestant movement need any special protection? Popular churches, by definition, needed no protection. Can Christian-Identity churches be protected in today’s democratic, tolerant government? Or is it just the popular churches that teach the politically correct views that receive the protection?
Blessed be the LORD God of Israel.
