Stellar Ron Paul Interview

Over on the Gold-Silver web page there is an excellent interview with Ron Paul mostly dealing with economics. In the interview Ron Paul explains a bit of the Federal Reserve system (most people have no clue whatsoever about the FED, this is intentional by the way), defends a gold standard monetary policy as well as consititional liberty. This really is a must see for thinking voters:

The interview can be seen here.

great insights here!

Fiat money: money produced by spending and lending money.

Fractionalize Banking: money created out of nothing!

God can create gold and silver, dogs and cats, pearls and trees, stars and diamonds, sun and moon, planets, birds and bees, fish and cows. All with His Word, He creates something from nothing!

The Devil, all he can do is create a phathom system utilizing Fiat/Fractionalized means!

Jesus said an amazing thing:

Luk 16:9 And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous wealth, so that when it fails they may receive you into the eternal dwellings.


Notice He did not say "IF" it fails!

Rather, Our Lord, from Whom all things exist said: ""WHEN"" it fails!

The failure has come. It's now bearing fruit!

Should we fear? No. Why? Remember who said it? Jesus. Luke 16!!

Good reference Michael. We can be sure that the things of this world that are to promise "security" will fail... Thus our comfort must be other worldly.

it is time for subtle warnings to be spoken and actions to prepare for what is coming!

Consider these words of David:

Psa 9:5 You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish; you have blotted out their name forever and ever.
Psa 9:6 The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins; their cities you rooted out; the very memory of them has perished.

David is "recounting" the "deeds" of the Lord of his Salvation and rejoicing before his governed, those given to him by their own desire to be separated from God's Way of Judgment. It doesn't make any sense to me why a people would want to be separated from their Creator for some lessor faulty system!

Nevertheless David goes on and gives us a most relevant insight into the future ungodly systems coming forth in our days now and most certainly coming in the days ahead:

Psa 9:15 The nations have sunk in the pit that they made; in the net that they hid, their own foot has been caught.
Psa 9:16 The LORD has made himself known; he has executed judgment; the wicked are snared in the work of their own hands. Higgaion. Selah


Take notice of his insights here? They made the pit! They did it with intention, "to catch and control" the destiny of others. They are snared by the work of their own hands!

The Lord is enthroned on His Holy Mountain. He is the Creator of them, us all. He will not allow those for whom He died to be ensared in the traps of the wicked!

This whole monetary system is a pit waiting for those who made it to fall into it. They shall be caught by the works of their own hands!

The question then becomes, what shall we do then? How shall we then live?

No differently than King David!

Psa 9:1 To the choirmaster: according to Muth-labben. A Psalm of David. I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart; I will recount all of your wonderful deeds.
Psa 9:2 I will be glad and exult in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
Psa 9:3 When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish before your presence.
Psa 9:4 For you have maintained my just cause; you have sat on the throne, giving righteous judgment.
Psa 9:5 You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish; you have blotted out their name forever and ever.
Psa 9:6 The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins; their cities you rooted out; the very memory of them has perished.
Psa 9:7 But the LORD sits enthroned forever; he has established his throne for justice,
Psa 9:8 and he judges the world with righteousness; he judges the peoples with uprightness.
Psa 9:9 The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
Psa 9:10 And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
Psa 9:11 Sing praises to the LORD, who sits enthroned in Zion! Tell among the peoples his deeds!


We now can concern ourselves with entering into that Sabbath Rest prepared for the people of God! We too can be those people who live by the Promises of God secured by the Life and Death and Resurrection of our Lord, the Christ, the Son of the Living God, Whom we believe was born of a Virgin and raised up in a Hebrew home to become the Savior from the schemes of the wicked.

The monetary systems takes away from some who buy into it, living by the Faith once delivered to the Saints.

I for one am not one of those. I live by the Promises of God secured for me too, in Christ, the Son of the Living God. He has a cause, a just cause! This is my message to the nations and the peoples oppressed in them suffering under the heavy burden of the debt and lifeless opportunities this wicked system offers. It is a cruel crushing system. It will fail. It is just about time for that to happen.

Then shall the Righteousness of Christ shine brighter through the Saints living in that Gift of Grace, Faith, Word, Christ for the Glory of God!

Psa 9:17 The wicked shall return to Sheol, all the nations that forget God.
Psa 9:18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten, and the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.
Psa 9:19 Arise, O LORD! Let not man prevail; let the nations be judged before you!
Psa 9:20 Put them in fear, O LORD! Let the nations know that they are but men! Selah

Hi Bob. This doesn't have anything to do with Ron Paul - hope you don't mind.
I just thought you might find this article interesting, since you like Christian philosophy and theology:
