Requirement for Consent

The phrase “do not know Him who sent Me” is equivalent to someone who has no commercial or legal relationship with 1 God by virtue of not accepting or nominating Him as their CIVIL protector. These people are domiciled on Earth within 2 Caesar’s jurisdiction rather than in Heaven under God’s civil protection. They are therefore practicing idolatry and are 3 under the control of the “wicked one” as Jesus called Him in Matt. 13 , 1 John 2, and 1 John 3 . They are “worshipping” a 4 false idol called “Caesar” because they have nominated HIM as their pagan civil lawgiver instead of God. The source of 5 law in any society is the GOD of that society and if Caesar’s law deviates from God’s law, then Caesar is the new pagan 6 god: 7

Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah, and said to him, “ Look, you are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now make us a king to judge us like all the nations [and be

OVER them] ” .

10

But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, “ Give us a king to judge us. ” So Samuel prayed to the Lord. And the Lord said to Samuel, “ Heed the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have rejected Me [God], that I should not reign over them. According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt, even to this day — with which they have forsaken Me and served other gods [Kings, in this case] — so they are doing to you also [government becoming idolatry]. Now therefore, heed their voice. However, you shall solemnly forewarn them, and show them the behavior of the king who

will reign over them. ”

The Bible even describes Jesus as NOT having an Earthly domicile: 19

Then a certain scribe came and said to Him, “ Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go. ” And Jesus said to him, “ Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head. ”

Consistent with the above analysis, states of the Union:

23

1 Are considered legislatively “foreign” in relation to each other. 24

“ For all national purposes embraced by the Federal Constitution, the States and the citizens thereof are one, united under the same sovereign authority, and governed by the same laws. In all other respects the States are

25

26

necessarily foreign and independent of each other. ”

27

[Buckner v. Finley, 2 Pet. 586 (1829)]

Foreign Laws: “The laws of a foreign country or sister state. In conflicts of law, the legal principles of jurisprudence which are part of the law of a sister state or nation. Foreign laws are additions to our own laws,

29

30

and in that respect are called 'jus receptum'." [Black’s Law Dictionary, 6 th Edition, p. 647]

31

32

2 Are called “foreign states” in relation to the national government. 33

Foreign States: “Nations outside of the United States…Term may also refer to another state; i .e. a sister state. The term ‘foreign nations’, …should be construed to mean all nations and states other than that in which the

34

35

action is brought; and hence, one state of the Union is foreign to another, in that sense.”

36

[Black’s Law Dictionary, 6 th Edition, p. 648]

37

3 Are called “sovereign” because they are legislatively foreign. 38

"Generally, the states of the Union sustain toward each other the relationship of independent sovereigns or independent foreign states, except in so far as the United States is paramount as the dominating government, and in so far as the states are bound to recognize the fraternity among sovereignties established by the federal Constitution, as by the provision requiring each state to give full faith and credit to the public acts, records, and

39

41

42

judicial proceedings of the other states..."

4 Can only surrender their “foreign status” WITH THEIR express consent. 45

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
