Requirement for Consent

"Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers [the heathens], nor observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their [pagan government] idols. I am the LORD your God: Walk in My statutes, keep My judgments, and do them; hallow My Sabbaths, and they will be a sign between Me and you, that you may know that I am the

9.6 Those who do not consent to ANYTHING offered by a government are called “sovereign” 6 and legislatively “foreign” in relation to that specific government 7

Those who are following God’s law as described in the previous section by refusing to consent to ANYTHING and 8 EVERYTHING offered by any government will find that they inevitably acquire the civil status of “sovereign” and 9 legislatively but not necessarily Constitutionally “foreign” in relation to all governments. This section will explain in detail 10 why this is, its legal implications, and will explain why it is the only way one can truly be “free” in any sense of the word. 11 Many Americans naturally cringe at the idea of being called a “foreign er ” in their own country. The purpose of this section 12 is to explain why there is nothing wrong with maintaining the status of being “foreign” and why it is the ONLY way to 13 preserve and protect the separation of powers that was put into place by the very wise founding fathers for the explicit 14 purpose of protecting our sacred Constitutional Rights. 15 The U.S. Supreme Court described how legal entities and persons transition from being FOREIGN to DOMESTIC in 16 relation to a specific court or venue, which is ONLY with their express consent. This process of giving consent is also 17 called a "waiver of sovereign immunity" and it applies equally to governments, states, and the humans occupying them. To 18 wit: 19

Before we can proceed in this cause we must, therefore, inquire whether we can hear and determine the matters in controversy between the parties, who are two states of this Union, sovereign within their respective boundaries, save that portion of power which they have granted to the federal government, and foreign to each other for all but federal purposes. So they have been considered by this Court, through a long series of years and cases, to the present term; during which, in the case of The Bank of the United States v. Daniels, this Court has declared this to be a fundamental principle of the constitution; and so we shall consider it in deciding Those states, in their highest sovereign capacity, in the convention of the people thereof; on whom, by the revolution, the prerogative of the crown, and the transcendant power of parliament devolved, in a plenitude unimpaired by any act, and controllable by no authority, 6 Wheat. 651; 8 Wheat. 584, 88; adopted the constitution, by which they respectively made to the United States a grant of judicial power over controversies between two or more states. By the constitution, it was ordained that this judicial power, in cases where a state was a party, should be exercised by this Court as one of original jurisdiction. The states waived their exemption from judicial power, 6 Wheat. 378, 80, as sovereigns by original and inherent right, by their own grant of its exercise over themselves in such cases, but which they would not grant to any inferior tribunal. By this grant, this Court has acquired jurisdiction over the parties in this cause, by their own consent and delegated authority; as their agent for executing the judicial power of the United States in the cases specified. on the present motion. 2 Peters, 590, 91.

The idea of the above cite is that all civil subject matters or powers by any government NOT expressly consented to by the 39 object of those powers are foreign and therefore outside the civil legal jurisdiction of that government. This fact is 40 recognized in the Declaration of Independence, which states that all just powers derive from the CONSENT of those 41 governed. The method of providing that consent , in the case of a human, is to select a civil domicile within a specific 42 government and thereby nominate a protector under the civil statutory laws of the territory protected by that government. 43 This fact is recognized in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 17(b), which says that the capacity to sue or be sued is 44 determined by the law of the domicile of the party. Civil statutory laws from places or governments OUTSIDE the domicile 45 of the party may therefore NOT be enforced by a court against the party. This subject is covered further in: 46

A very important aspect of domicile is that whether one is domestic and a citizen or foreign under the civil statutory laws is 47 determined SOLELY by one's domicile, and NOT their nationality. You can be born anywhere in America and yet still be a 48 statutory alien in relation to any and every state or government within America simply by not choosing or having a 49
