An Open Letter to County Commissioners, City Councils and Mayors
re; arpa funding
Taking federal funds is a trap. Please don’t fall for the bait.
It is our freedom which is at stake and it’s not for sale.
By taking the money you are agreeing to Federal dictates over our lives and property. This is something that you promised not to do when you took your oath of office to defend and uphold the Constitution of the United States.
The 10th Amendment is very clear on this. By taking ARPA money you are agreeing to rule by federal decree which is exactly the reason for the Revolutionary War and the subsequent writing of the Constitution.
The very first article of the Constitution vests all lawmaking Authority in the Congress of the United States. It couldn’t be any more plain that none of it is in the executive branch. Read it for yourself You only have to read the very first article to decide what to do with your” free” money that requires you to follow executive orders and all other Federal rules and regulations.
You should be able to figure this out all by yourselves without even consulting an attorney. If you’ve already taken the money it’s your duty and obligation to send it back and say “thanks, but no thanks”

Agreed – The political problems are very bad, yet these are mere symptoms of the root problem, which is sin. We have been blessed tremendously as a nation, and still gleefully wallow in sin and open rebellion against God, then wonder why we have increasing curses. Our rebellion against God as a nation is and has been, an epidemic. Repent as a nation to be blessed as a nation.
TENTH AMENDMENT ALERT!
Returning power (via Amendment 10) to the states is NOT the answer for our country. When biblical standards are rejected, state governments are just as wicked as is the federal government.
Our only answer is a return to Yahweh the God of the Bible as America’s Sovereign, His Son as the Savior of the remnant, and His morality as found in His perfect law and altogether righteous judgments (Psalm 19:7-9) as government and society ethical standard.
As an example: Most people considered Justice Scalia a conservative.
QUESTION: What’s the true conservative position regarding in utero fanticide (aka “abortion”)?
ANSWER: The conservative position is that it’s murder as determined by Yahweh, the ONLY One with the authority to make such a determination. Turning the decision over to the States to decide (which was Scalia’s position) is NOT the conservative position.
QUESTION: Why was this Scalia’s position?
ANSWER: Because to Scalia the Constitution was the Supreme Law of the land, rather than the Bible’s immutable/unchanging moral law.
