Human Rights: In Biblical terms "human rights" equate to "that which enables and assists us to fulfill our human responsibility to obey God". Whatever God requires of man, God gives man the inalienable right to do or to be, and no one has the right to impair the freedom of any man lawfully to obey Almighty God. This doctrine is the basis of the ancient Imperial Acts, but when it is not being observed, it allows further violation of Human Rights, such as the right to life. Because of the allowance of abortion against the Word of God, tens of thousands of babies lose their right to life every year in Australia. There are many other similar examples.
God has given men three very important human rights by virtue of the Christian Scriptures:
"These rights consist, primarily, in the free enjoyment of personal security, of personal liberty, and of private property. So long as these remain inviolate, the subject is perfectly free; for every species of compulsive tyranny and oppression must act in opposition to one or other of theserights . . ." (quoted from Blackstone on 'Arms for Self-Defence'.)
Under our Christian Constitutional Monarchy we should be able to live, and raise children, in an environment where personal security, personal liberty, and private ownership of property are assured. We should be able to enjoy the blessingof Almighty God, and have our property safely protected. But the reality is vastly different, and our rights are diminishing continually.
1. Our Personal Security: Our right to freedom of Christianity has been so violated, that our personal security is in jeopardy. The sovereign's role under God has not been upheld as it should, so that we are not now benefitting (as a society) from God's Laws. We are continually decriminalizing more and more sinful behaviours instead of preventing them., which forces other citizens to lose their right to live in the security, safety and stability of this once God-fearing nation.
Many God-given Human Rights have been lost in Australia because United Nations Declarations have become the excuse for changing our laws, including those dealing with marriage and family issues, and the Education Act and Regulations, to reflect the concepts of Humanism, Feminism, New Age, etc.. At least one High Court Judge has ruled that U.N. Declarations are NOT part of Australian Law. Alien laws steal from Christian families and Christian schools, the God-given right of parents and teachers to care for, control and discipline children as God expects.
Example No.1: A recent TV current affairs segment featured a devoted loving mother and father who have cared for their brain-damaged actor son since his serious accident some years ago. Because Humanism in the government has squeezed Christianity out, the bureaucracy is showing the customary lack of recognition of parents' divinely-ordained right to decide what is best for their son. They are being threatened with losing their right to continue to keep him in their loving care, giving him their special treatment that is proving gradually successful.
Example No.2: This year Education Queensland has run seminars informing staff and volunteers (including Religious Education teachers) about the new Child Protection Policy introduced on 20/4/1998. This policy for protecting children seems likely to find ways of laying charges of 'child abuse' on parents (or teachers or staff), by inferring that nearly all student behaviour can be the result of child abuse. Using this formula can cast a shadow over parents, who are bringing up children (as is their right) in the fear and admonition of the Lord to honour God and parents.
It was suggested that one possible indicator of child abuse is a child who sticks by his/her parents at all times. They say this is a suspect behaviour "because normal, non-abused children always have a whinge about their parents."
These Education Queensland Seminars seem to be "for prohibiting the free exercise of" Christianity, which is forbidden in Section 116 of our Constitution, and also Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights. It infringes the religious freedom of Christians in Australia, especially innocent Christian parents and teachers, who now run the risk of being suspected of, or charged with, child abuse just for obeying God.
Example No.3: :God gives children to parents (not to government departments) and He gives parents and grandparents (but not government departments) His instructions on how to bring up children as He requires. As the Bible shows, God forged the relationship between child, parents and grandparents, and what God joins together, no one may put asunder: Through the Family Law Courts and Family Services Departments, families are being artifically split up and not only are fathers often denied right of access to their own children, but frequently it means that grandparents are also deprived of their grandchildren.
Example No.3: In FOL's May-July 1999 'Light' Magazine there is an account of the Columbine High School massacre in Littleton, Colorado. At least seven of the victims have been identified as committed Christians, who lost their lives for admitting their Christian faith.
2. Our Personal Liberty: The Bible teaches that we have the right and duty to keep and use arms (guns) to protect the liberty and life of ourselves and others (see Nehemiah Chapter 4). Our rights are listed as covered forever, in the Queensland Imperial Acts Application Act 1984, effective in Australia. Sir William Blackstone had this to say:
"And lastly, to vindicate these rights, when actually violated or attacked, the subjects of England are entitled, in the first place, to the regular administration and free course of justice in the courts of law; next, to the right of petitioning the king and parliament for redress of grievances; and, lastly, to the right of having and using arms for self-preservation and defence.
"For all of us have it in our choice to do everything that a good man would desire to do; and are restrained from nothing, but what would be pernicious either to ourselves or our fellow-citizens." (This extract is taken from pages 143 and 144 of the first volume (of four) of the 21st edition of Sir William Blackstone'sbook 'Commentaries on the Laws of England' dated1884inwhich it Is stated that it derives from the edition of 1783 with the author's last corrections.
Any law that is not consistent with the Ten Commandments or the entrenched Imperial Acts is forever null and void, for it is foisting on people the Humanist religious belief that God must not be obeyed. This is in breach of the Commonwealth Constitution, which acknowledges in the Preamble the supremacy of Almighty God. Making any law to establish a religion breaches Section 116.
The freedom and responsibility of the nation's religion of Christianity is to honour God as Creator of the entire universe. Violation of this by laws allowing the assumption and teaching of evolution as an unproved "fact" instead of the true Biblical record of Creation is a huge and very serious infringement of religious right.
An Example: When Prime Minister Howard over-stepped his authority under the Constitution, and caused the States to breach the Law of the Land, he was putting us into the hands of local criminals and/or overseas invaders, ensuring that we the people would be as unarmed and helpless as the East Timorese. The Prime Minister has not only violated our religious freedom but he has also stolen our everlasting natural right of self-defence and protection of friends and neighbours from attack.
Laws that prevent jury trials are laws that violate the Christian religion and are null and void to whatever extent they are repugnant to the entrenched Imperial Laws of England. Any refusal by a Judge in any trial to allow a person a jury is also in breach of Magna Carta, and is causing loss of a right that has been the inalienable right of every subject of English monarchs for nearly 800 years.
An Example: There have been numerous examples of the loss of the right to a jury, including a divorce and custody case involving the father of the child, Dennis Stanbridge, and another currently involving Martin Essinberg re guns.
Home invasion, including attacks on the elderly, removing "God Save the Queen" as our Anthem, and looking to changing our flag are examples of other instances of eroding of peoples' rights..
Christian Schools - What State educationists seem to want is to establish an exclusive civil religion in all schools - their own peculiar civil religion. But that is forbidden by our Constitution in Section 116. The educationists accuse Christian schools of not using books on State lists, and of teaching that creation is true. They accuse Christian parents of contributing to the mis-education of minors because they teach them to believe that God is creator and saviour of mankind, and that Christ is alive in heaven.
Students from Christian schools have proved over the years that they generally achieve much higher results than State Schools, but the Education Department is obviously not looking for good schooling, but for conformist schooling..
Christians have lost their right under Freedom of Religion to raise their children as Christians in a violence-free, and morally and sexually pure environment. The official use of anti-Christian material in the schools and on the air has seriously discriminated against Australia's Christian religion and belief, and its lawful Christian philosophy of education and of Broadcasting and Television. (See Philippians 4.8)
In a Christian country, abortion, cloning human beings, euthanasia, prostitution, sodomy, pornography, sex education in schools without a moral basis, etc., should not be foisted on those who hold to the nation's established religion. This is adding to people's insecurity. Discrimination against what is right is much worse than discrimination against what is evil and wrong in God's estimation.
Restraints on Preaching and Teaching: Along with violation of our established religion, there is the possibility thatrestraints will eventually be applied to public and even private preaching and teaching, possibly even involving one's own children. God has laid down what He demands of parents and grandparents in the matter of teaching our children.:
"God said, 'For I know him [Abraham] that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord Jehovah to do justice and judgment, that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which He has spoken of him." (Genesis 18.19)
"All this law which I [God] set before you . . teach them to thy sons and thy sons' sons." (Deuteronomy.4.9)
"The Lord our God is one Lord: and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might, and these words that I command you this day, shall be in your heart: And you shall teach them diligrently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up." (Deuteronomy 6.4}
"Fathers, . . . bring your children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord." (Ephesians 6.4)
"The aged women likewise, be teachers of good things: that they may teach the young women . . to love their children" . . (Titus 2.3-5)
"The unfeigned faith that is in you [Timothy] dwelt first in your grandmother Lois, and in your mother Eunice; and I am persuaded in you also." (2 Timothy 1.5)
"What God has joined together, let not man put asunder." (Matthew 19.6)
Yet the Humanistic Family Law Court and the Family Services Department are regularly tearing families apart, and preventing parents and grandparents from carrying out their God-ordained duties. Anti-God laws, regulations and customs are encouraging more family conflict, and causing more rifts. It causes an unacceptable loss of Biblical Human Rights that the Queen's Vice-regal representatives should be protecting on behalf of the Queen in her role as "Defender of The Faith" of Christ.
3. Our Private Property: God, through His Ten Commandments, established private property rights:
by forbidding the taking of either a person's life, his wife, his servant, his house, his good name, his sexual purity, or any other possessions, and even the coveting of anything is forbidden.
through the inclusion of these Biblical principles in Magna Carta and the 1689 Bill of Rights, and any other law that is consistent with the entrenched Imperial Acts, is not repugnant to God, nor in breach of the Commonwealth Constitution, especially Section 116.
It is the Queen's Coronation Service and Oath, that forever legally secures for Her subjects:
our right to our private property, in life and in death, i,e, no confiscation of assets at death;
the right to legitimate inheritance of property, its accumulation, ownership and method of disposal;
the right to laws forbidding coveting, theft, or use, removal, damage or disposal without permission.
However, our right to our private property is tenuous because of official disinterest in our rights. Any government legislation that threatens private property is a violation of religious freedom and is repugnant to Law, but unfair taxes are taking toll. The Monarch's role is to protect our rights. She cannot tax us nor take from us in any way, and is absolutely no threat to our ownership of anything. So the blame must lie with our own Government.
If we lose the Queen, Her Crown, and the freedom of Christianity, we cannot expect to continue to have title to Crown land, or Crown Title Deeds to our own residential or other land.. All would either revert to the aborigines, or be confiscated by the State. Already our historic permanent Title Deeds have been thrown out in favour of small pieces of computer printouts.
If Parliament's unlawful revolt against the Queen succeeds, a new, unlawful republic will have no legal claim to Crown Title. Title to Australia belongs to the Crown in perpetuity, and cannot be lawfully given away either by the present Queen or the current U.K. Parliament, and certainly not by our Federal Politicians.
Almighty God is the source of our rights of inheritance, and therefore any law to remove or reduce our ability to provide for our children after our death, is contrary to the Christian religion, and deprives us of our Human Right to own and dispose of private assets
If Her Majesty's advisors are unable to protect our right to our land and to inherited property, in line with the Coronation Oath, then perhaps abdication is called for, in favour of another who will uphold the ancient Imperial Laws. This has often happened before in the history of our Monarchy, giving ample precedents.
Internation Law - our loss: The ratification of international treaties is creating a new type of law for Australia. It is a political party deception, in which we lose the lawful restraints of our Constitution, Common Law, etc., and create a law that by-passes the due process of law, for approval by the Australian people is not required..
The kind of Australia most people want is a land where personal security, personal liberty, and private property are fully secured The Australian Constitution provides our only effective means to limit the power of Federal Parliament. The Constitutional changes associated with a republic will allow the removal of these existing limits, and expose us all to loss of more rights. The government would no longer be controlled by the people, the Governor-General, or the Queen, but would be a law unto itself, with dictatorial powers in the hands of the Prime Minister.
