pleasant place for EVERYONE. If Jesus is your Savior but NOT your Sovereign Lord and KING, then you can’t enter this 1 city! 2

The New Jerusalem

3

Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came to me and talked with me, say ing, “Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.” And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. Also she had a great and high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: three gates on the east, three gates on Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. And he who talked with me had a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. The city is laid out as a square; its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand furlongs. Its length, breadth, and height are equal. Then he measured its wall: one hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an angel. The construction of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass. The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: the first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls: each individual gate was of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass. the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west.

The wall keeps the sinners, disobedient, and anarchists (in relation to God’s laws) OUT of the city. These people are NOT 22 subject to the laws applicable WITHIN the city, but instead are “foreign”, a “stranger”, “stateless”, or a “nonresident” in 23 relation to the civil laws of that place. All laws are prima facie territorial, meaning that they DO NOT apply to people not 24 ON that land or at least domiciled there. 25

The foregoing considerations would lead, in case of doubt, to a construction of any statute as intended to be confined in its operation and effect to the territorial limits over which the lawmaker has general and legitimate power. 'All legislation is prima facie territorial.' Ex parte Blain, L. R. 12 Ch. Div. 522, 528; State v. Carter, 27 N.J.L. 499; People v. Merrill, 2 Park. Crim. Rep. 590, 596. Words having universal scope, such as 'every contract in restraint of trade,' 'every person who shall monopolize,' etc., will be taken, as a matter of course, to mean only everyone subject to such legislation, not all that the legislator subsequently may be able to catch. In the case of the present statute, the improbability of the United States attempting to make acts done in Panama or Costa Rica criminal is obvious, yet the law begins by making criminal the acts for which it gives a right to sue. We think it entirely plain that what the defendant did in Panama or Costa Rica is not within the scope of the statute so far as the present suit is concerned. Other objections of a serious nature are urged, but

“ The canon of construction which teaches that legislation of Congress, unless a contrary intent appears, is meant to apply only within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States, Blackmer v. United States, supra, at 437, is a valid approach whereby unexpressed congressional intent may be ascertained. It is based on the

assumption that Congress is primarily concerned with domestic conditions. ”

“ The laws of Congress in respect to those matters [outside of Constitutionally delegated powers] do not extend into the territorial limits of the states, but have force only in the District of Columbia, and other

places that are within the exclusive jurisdiction of the national government. ”)

In the case of the civil statutory “codes” or protection franchise, you must not only be ON that land, but must CONSENT to 50 be protected by them by consensually choosing a domicile within the jurisdi ction of the “state” that civilly protects that 51 land. If you don’t choose such a domicile on the land in which you have injured someone, then: 52 1. The party you injured and you are both protected only by the Constitution and the Common law. 53 2. You are a “foreign”, a “stranger”, “stateless”, or a “nonresident” in relation to the civil statutory codes of that place. 54 3. Those who attempt to enforce the civil statutory “codes” against a non -resident are guilty of compelling you to contract 55 under the terms of the “social compact”, meaning the civil statutory protection franchise codes. 56
