Jesus Came to Set Us Free
John 8:31-33
As He was saying these things, many believed in Him. 31 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, you really are My disciples. 32 You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
Walvoord’s Notes: 8:30. In spite of widespread unbelief and official rejection, the ministry of Jesus did bring many to faith (cf. 7:31). Yet this faith would need to be tested and refined. The words many put their faith in Him contrast with the next verse. Though large numbers of people responded to Jesus, many people fell away. 8:31-32. Jews who had believed Him indicates that some paid attention to Jesus' words without necessarily committing themselves to Him personally (cf. 6:53). It was possible to "believe" in the message of repentance and the coming kingdom without being born again. Continuing in the truth is the sign of true followers and learners (disciples). If they really grasped His message, they would find salvation truth. Knowing this salvation truth would liberate them from their bondage in sin.
Contextual Notes: The claims of Jesus, so simple and so lofty, impressed some of those who were present. Many believed. Yet before long they were picking up stones to cast at him (Jn 8:59). It is the old story of pseudo faith. In this case, they did not abide in his word-which is necessary for true discipleship, and which opens the way to knowing the truth more fully-to the point of being set free through it (v. 32).
Application Questions:
Q: what was Jesus talking about those Jews who were believing Him in v31?
A: that verb in this verse is in the pisteu,w pisteuo rare perfect tense which defines an action in an ongoing grammar like a lifestyle. Jesus was not talking about folks who had a warm fuzzy and were hanging around to get fed. Meaning: 1) to think to be true, to be persuaded of, to have confidence in a moral or religious reference; used in the NT of the conviction and trust to which a man is impelled by a certain inner and higher prerogative and law of soul 1b2) to trust in Jesus or God as able to aid either in obtaining or in doing something: saving faith. Tense - Perfect (See 5778) Voice - Active (See 5784) Mood - Participle (See 5796) Count - 193
Q: John said because of this teaching many chose to believe v. 30 what is Jesus pathway to being a true disciple?
A: in v. 31-32 "So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
A: the verb for continue v31 is mei,nhte verb subjunctive aorist active 2nd person plural from me,nw defining those who chose to remain, stay J 7:9; 12:24; 15:4b; Ac 27:31; 1 Cor 7:11, 40; Hb 7:3.

This verb requires a quality decision to keep allowing God’s Word to actively instruct our lives. It doesn’t mean we buy a Bible or place it on our coffee table.
A: Set you free v32: evleuqero,w eleutheroo Meaning: 1) to make free 2) set at liberty: from the dominion of sin Usage: AV - make free 6, deliver 1; 7 Tense - Future (See 5776) Voice - Active (See 5784) Mood - Indicative (See 5791) Count - 814 Disciples are set free from bondage and slavery to sin. This does not mean they are sinless. True sons are set free from their old slavery.
Q: how can we evaluate the false claims of people like Karl Marx?
A: they always make grand promises such as follow me and you won’t have to work hard anymore. Socialism will give you rest as others become responsible for your welfare. Most who followed this man ended up under police control or in gulags if they caused trouble.
Q: can we learn about Jesus’ teachings on economics from His parables?
A: The Parable of the Faithful Servant is a parable of Jesus found in the Gospel of Luke 12:35-48 with parallels found in Mark (13:33-37) and Matthew (24:42-51) and the Gospel of Thomas (Thomas 21). In Matthew and Mark it is used as part of the Olivet discourse.1 The Parable of the Master and Servant was given by Jesus in the New Testament (Luke). It immediately follows the Parable of the Mustard Seed from Luke 17:7-10.
A: The Parable of the Talents (sometimes just the Parable of Talents) is a parable of Jesus in Matthew 25:14-30. It was told to illustrate an aspect of the nature of the Kingdom of Heaven. Christians have taken it to mean that diligence in carrying out one's responsibilities is essential for more important tasks in the future. A similar parable, called The Parable of the Minas or The Parable of the Pounds is found in Luke 19:12-27, the main difference being that the master entrusted his servants with equal amounts, and that a mina was of much less value than a talent. Talents were used as a unit of currency. It is impossible to be exact about their value, and different kinds of talent were in use. However, even the lowest value for a talent puts it as worth several thousand denarii, and a denarius was the usual payment for a day's labor. So a talent was the value of many years of work by an ordinary person. The Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, third edition, lists precise values of the talent: The Babylonian silver talent was equal to 3,000 shekels; the Greek talent contained 60 minae or 6000 silver drachmae, and the value of the late Attic talent of silver, with pure silver at 4s 9d, an oz. troy, has been estimated at £200.2
A: The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard or the Parable of the Laborers in the Vineyard (Parable of the Generous Employer) was given by Jesus in the New Testament Gospel of Matthew. In it, Jesus says that any "laborer" who accepts the invitation to the Kingdom of Heaven, no matter how late in the day, will receive an equal reward with those who have been faithful the longest. Traditionally, the parable has been treated as an allegory and taken to mean that even those who are baptized late in life earn equal rewards along with those baptized early, but Jesus' parables were meant to provoke thought rather than to define precise details[1] or explicit application.[2]3
A: The Parable of the Lost Coin is a parable told by Jesus in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. This is the second of three parables about loss and redemption that Jesus tells after the Pharisees and religious leaders accuse him of welcoming and eating with sinners. The other two are the Parable of the Lost Sheep and the Parable of the Lost Son (the Prodigal Son).4
Q: what is the Protestant work ethic? A COMMUNITY OATH OF ETHICS
A: the Mayflower Compact was a result of this statute of ethical reform. The Mayflower Compact was the first governing document of Plymouth Colony. It was written by the Separatists later known as the Pilgrims who crossed the Atlantic aboard the Mayflower, seeking the freedom to practice Christianity according to their own determination.[citation needed] It was signed on November 11, 1620 (OS)[1] by 41 of the ship's more than one hundred passengers,[2] in what is now Provincetown Harbor near Cape Cod.
The manuscript is kept in a special vault at the State Library of Massachusetts.[4] Bradford's transcription is as follows:
In the name of God, Amen. We whose names are underwritten, the loyal subjects of our dread Sovereign Lord King James, by the Grace of God of Great Britain, France and Ireland, King, Defender of the Faith, etc.
Having undertaken, for the Glory of God and advancement of the Christian Faith and Honour of our King and Country, a Voyage to plant the First Colony in the Northern Parts of Virginia, do by these presents solemnly and mutually in the presence of God and one of another, Covenant and Combine ourselves together into a Civil Body Politic, for our better ordering and preservation and furtherance of the ends aforesaid; and by virtue hereof to enact, constitute and frame such just and equal Laws, Ordinances, Acts, Constitutions and Offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most meet and convenient for the general good of the Colony, unto which we promise all due submission and obedience. In witness whereof we have hereunder subscribed our names at Cape Cod, the 11th of November, in the year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord King James, of England, France and Ireland the eighteenth, and of Scotland the fifty-fourth. Anno Domini 1620.[5][3]
Thirteen Colonies: The Thirteen Colonies were part of what became known as British America, a name that was used by Great Britain until the Treaty of Paris recognized the independence of the original United States of America. New England: Created by King James II with the consolidation of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay Colony, Plymouth Colony, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Province of New York, East Jersey, and West Jersey into a single larger colony in 1685.
It didn’t take long for British subjects living in colonies to realize how many freedoms they lost when they immigrated from English soil. There were real British citizens of the crown and subjected citizens of the various colonies. Massachusetts Bay colony encroached into Maine during the English Civil War, but, with the Restoration, autonomy was returned to Maine in 1664. Maine was officially merged into Massachusetts Bay Colony with the issuance of the Massachusetts Bay charter of 1691. Plymouth colony: Settled in 1620 by the Pilgrims. Plymouth was absorbed by Massachusetts Bay Colony with the issuance of the Massachusetts Bay charter of 1691.
Appearance of American Patriots: At the time, revolutionaries were called 'Patriots', 'Whigs', 'Congress-men', or 'Americans'. They included a full range of social and economic classes, but a unanimity regarding the need to defend the rights of Americans. After the war, Patriots such as George Washington, James Madison, John Adams, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay were deeply devoted to republicanism while also eager to build a rich and powerful nation, while Patriots such as Patrick Henry, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson represented democratic impulses and the agrarian plantation element that wanted a localized society with greater political equality.
Underground Patriots Liberty Tree Movement: the Liberty Tree (1646–1775) was a famous elm tree that stood in Boston, near Boston Common, in the days before the American Revolution. The tree was a rallying point for the growing resistance to the rule of England over the American colonies. In the years that followed, almost every American town had its own Liberty Tree—a living symbol of popular support for individual liberty and resistance to tyranny. On August 14, 1765, a group of men calling themselves the Sons of Liberty gathered in Boston under a large elm tree at the corner of Essex Street and Orange Street near Hanover Square to protest the hated Stamp Act. The Sons of Liberty concluded their protest by hanging two tax collectors in effigy from the tree. From that day forward, the tree became known as the "Liberty Tree." The tree was often decorated with banners and lanterns. Assemblies were regularly held to express views and vent emotions. A flagstaff or pole was raised within the Tree's branches and when an ensign (usually yellow) was raised, the Sons of Liberty were to meet. In the years leading up to the war, the British made the Liberty Tree an object of ridicule. British soldiers tarred and feathered a man named Ditson, and forced him to march in front of the tree. This act only further enraged the colonists. As resistance to the British grew, flags bearing a representation of the Liberty Tree were flown to symbolize the unwavering spirit of liberty. These flags were later a common sight during the battles of the American Revolution.
Sons of Liberty: The Sons of Liberty was a secret organization of American Patriots which originated in the Thirteen Colonies during the American Revolution. Patriots attacked the apparatus and symbols of British authority and power.
Q: How Did Capitalism Get So Popular In America?
A: Adam Smith Industry Must Have a Conscience.
A: Americans have been educated with the idea of liberty limited only by Stuart’s and Mill’s do no harm doctrine. People have been trained with the idea that hard work, sacrifice to work their dreams will be rewarded naturally as long as the government keeps out of their way with hindering regulations, and overburdening taxes.
A: Capitalism has been dominant in the Western world since the end of feudalism.[6] From Britain it gradually spread throughout Europe, across political and cultural frontiers. In the 19th and 20th centuries, capitalism provided the main, but not exclusive, means of industrialization throughout much of the world.[8]
A: the 'spirit of capitalism' began with the Puritan understanding of one’s ‘calling’ in life and their laboring for God rather than for men. This is pictured in Proverbs 22:29, “Seest thou a man diligent in his calling? He shall stand before kings” and in Colossians 3:23, "Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men." In the Protestant Ethic Weber further stated that “moneymaking – provided it is done legally – is, within the modern economic order, the result and the expression of diligence in one’s calling…” Thus in Weber's opinion, it was with a devotion to God in the workplace and seeking assurance of salvation described as the Protestant work ethic that the Puritans helped form the basis to the modern economic order.
Q: Who Is The Father of Captitalism?
A: Adam Smith [1723 – 1790] was a Scottish moral philosopher and a pioneer of political economy. One of the key figures of the Scottish Enlightenment, Smith is the author of The Theory of Moral Sentiments and An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. Smith studied moral philosophy at the University of Glasgow and Oxford University. Adam Smith is widely cited as the father of modern economics. In The Theory of Moral Sentiments, Smith critically examined the moral thinking of the time and suggested that conscience arises from social relationships. His aim in the work is to explain the source of mankind's ability to form moral judgements, in spite of man's natural inclinations toward self-interest. Smith proposes a theory of sympathy in which the act of observing others makes people aware of themselves and the morality of their own behavior. Smith also believed that a division of labour would effect a great increase in production. The Wealth of Nations, one of the earliest attempts to study the rise of industry and commercial development in Europe, was a precursor to the modern academic discipline of economics. His the central proposition of mainstream economic theory, namely that an individual should invest a resource, for example, land or labour, so as to earn the highest possible return on it. Consequently, all uses of the resource should yield a risk-adjusted equal rate of return; otherwise resource reallocation would result.
A: Adam Smith's attack on mercantilism and his reasoning for "the system of natural liberty" in The Wealth of Nations (1776) are usually taken as the beginning of classical political economy. Smith devised a set of concepts that remain strongly associated with capitalism today, particularly his theory of the "invisible hand" of the market, through which the pursuit of individual self-interest unintentionally produces a collective good for society. He criticized monopolies, tariffs, duties, and other state enforced restrictions of his time and believed that the market is the most fair and efficient arbitrator of resources.
A: Adam Smith argued that the state has a role in providing roads, canals, schools and bridges that cannot be efficiently implemented by private entities. However, he preferred that these goods should be paid proportionally to their consumption (e.g. putting a toll). In addition, he advocated retaliatory tariffs to bring about free trade, and copyrights and patents to encourage innovation.[18]
Q: what is socialism? KARL MARX [1818-1883]
A: Socialism refers to a broad set of economic theories of social organization advocating state or collective ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods, and the creation of an egalitarian society.[1][2] Modern socialism originated in the late nineteenth-century working class political movement. Karl Marx posited that socialism would be achieved via class struggle and a proletarian revolution which represents the transitional stage between capitalism and communism.
A: Karl Heinrich Marx (May 5, 1818–March 14, 1883) was a German[1] philosopher, political economist, historian, sociologist, humanist, political theorist and revolutionary credited as the founder of communism. Marx's approach to history and politics is indicated by the opening line of the first chapter of The Communist Manifesto (1848): “The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles”. Marx argued that capitalism, like previous socioeconomic systems, will produce internal tensions which will lead to its destruction.[2] Just as capitalism replaced feudalism, capitalism itself will be displaced by communism, a classless society which emerges after a transitional period—socialism—in which the state would be nothing else but the revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat. On the one hand, Marx argued for a systemic understanding of socioeconomic change. He argued that it is the structural contradictions within capitalism which necessitate its end, giving way to communism:“
The development of Modern Industry, therefore, cuts from under its feet the very foundation on which the bourgeoisie produces and appropriates products. What the bourgeoisie, therefore, produces, above all, are its own grave-diggers. Its fall and the victory of the proletariat are equally inevitable.” (The Communist Manifesto)
Q: Why Are Free Market Capitalism and Marxist Socialism So Opposed to One Another?
A: Marx believed Capitalism was an inferior part of human history as men evolved in agreement with Darwin’s Survival of the fittest. Socialism is evolution out of the primitive undeveloped ways of Capitalism.
A: capitalism is rooted in freedom and liberty while socialism is rooted in the idea that humans cannot be trusted with property so the state must seize them and regulate them for the benefit of the greater good for the larger masses. There is a lot of variance between states who have tried socialism and extreme versions end up with the idea that humans belong to the state from birth to death having no value outside of benefitting the state.
A: Economically, socialism denotes an economic system of state ownership and / or worker union ownership of the means of production and distribution. In Western Europe, particularly in the period after World War II, many socialist parties in government implemented what became known as mixed economies.[50] These governments nationalised major and economically vital industries while permitting a free market to continue in the rest. These were most often monopolistic or infrastructural industries like mail, railways, power and other utilities. In some instances a number of small, competing and often relatively poorly financed companies in the same sector were nationalised to form one government monopoly for the purpose of competent management, of economic rescue (in the UK, British Leyland, Rolls Royce), or of competing on the world market.
Q: Why Do The Majority Of Americans Oppose Socialism?
A: Criticisms of socialism range from claims that socialist economic and political models are inefficient or incompatible with civil liberties to condemnation of specific socialist states. There is much focus on the economic performance and human rights records of Communist states, although some[who?] proponents of socialism reject the categorization of such states as socialist.
A: Winston Churchill in an electoral broadcast prior to the British general election of 1945: . . . a socialist policy is abhorrent to the British ideas of freedom. Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the object worship of the state. It will prescribe for every one where they are to work, what they are to work at, where they may go and what they may say. Socialism is an attack on the right to breathe freely. No socialist system can be established without a political police. They would have to fall back on some form of Gestapo, no doubt very humanely directed in the first instance.
A: after the coming to power of British Premier Margaret Thatcher in 1979 and US President Ronald Reagan in 1981, and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, many social democratic party leaders were won to the ideological offensive which argued that capitalism had "won" and that, in the words of Francis Fukuyama's essay, capitalism had reached "the end point of mankind's ideological evolution and the universalization of Western liberal democracy as the final form of human government.".[74] Some parties reacted to these changes by engaging in a new round of revisionist re-assessment of socialist ideology, and adopting a neo-liberal outlook. Some critics argue that in practice the Social Democractic parties, and the Labour Party in particular, can no longer be described as socialist.[75] On Prime Minister Tony Blair's departure in June 2007, left wing trade union leader Bob Crow, general secretary of the Rail, Maritime and Transport workers union (RMT), argued that Blair will be remembered for "seamlessly continuing the neo-liberal economic and social policies of Margaret Thatcher".
Q: Why Do Most Link the Labor Movement to Marxist Socialism?
A: The term labour movement or labor movement is a broad term for the development of a collective organization of working people, to campaign in their own interest for better treatment from their employers and political governments, in particular through the implementation of specific laws governing labour relations. Labour unions and trade unions are collective organizations within societies, organized for the purpose of representing the interests of workers and the working class. Many elite-class individuals and political groups may also be active in and part of the labour movement.
A: The world-wide labor movement gained major impetus in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries from the Catholic Social Teaching tradition which began in 1891 with the publication of Pope Leo XIII's foundational document, Rerum Novarum, also known as "On the Condition of the Working Classes," in which he advocated a series of reforms including limits on the length of the work day, a living wage, the elimination of child labor, the rights of labor to organize, and the duty of the state to regulate labor conditions. Following the release of the document, the labor movement which had previously floundered began to flourish in Europe and later in North America.
A: Historically labour markets have often been constrained by national borders that have restricted movement of workers. Labour laws are also primarily determined by individual nations or states within those nations. While there has been some efforts to adopt a set of international labour standards throughout the International Labour Organization (ILO), international sanctions for failing to meet such great standards are very limited. In many countries labour movements have developed independently and reflect those national boundaries.
A: Once the union has won the support of a majority of the bargaining unit and is certified in a workplace, it has the sole authority to negotiate the conditions of employment. However, under the NLRA, if a minority of employees voted for a union, those employees can then form a union which represents the rights of only those members who voted for the union. This minority model was once widely used, but was discarded when unions began to consistently win majority support. Unions are beginning to revisit the "members only" model of unionism because of new changes to labor law which unions view as curbing workers' ability to organize.
Recent Trends in Union Membership in the United States
Union membership had been steadily declining in the US since 1983. In 2007, the labor department reported the first increase in union memberships in 25 years and the largest increase since 1979. Most of the recent gains in union membership have been in the service sector while the number of unionized employees in the manufacturing sector has declined. Most of the gains in the service sector have come in West Coast states like California where union membership is now at 16.7% compared with a national average of about 12.1% ("Union Membership Up Slightly in 2007".)
Union density (the percentage of workers belonging to unions) has been declining since the late 1940s, however. Almost 36% of American workers were represented by unions in 1945. Today that figure is around 12%. Significantly, the rapid growth of public employee unions since the 1960s has served to mask an even more dramatic decline in private-sector union membership.
At the apex of union density in the 1940s, only about 9.8% of public employees were represented by unions, while 33.9% of private, non-agricultural workers had such representation. In this decade, those proportions have essentially reversed, with 36% of public workers being represented by unions while private sector union density has plummeted to around 7%.
Success for the CIO quickly followed its formation. In 1937, one of the founding unions of the CIO, the United Auto Workers, won union recognition at General Motors Corporation after a tumultuous forty-four day sit-down strike, while the Steel Workers Organizing Committee, which was formed by the CIO, won a collective bargaining agreement with U.S. Steel. The CIO merged with the American Federation of Labor (AFL) in 1955 becoming the AFL-CIO.
The Gulag Movement
Q: why do so many link radical expressions of Socialism with Slavery?A: The current usage of the word serfdom is not usually synonymous with slavery, because medieval serfs were considered to have rights, as human beings, whereas slaves were considered “things”—property.
A: The Gulag was the government agency that administered the penal labor camps of the Soviet Union. Gulag is the Russian acronym for The Chief Administration of Corrective Labor Camps and Colonies (Russian: Главное Управление Исправительно-Трудовых Лагерей и колоний) of the NKVD. Eventually, by metonymy, the usage of "Gulag" began generally denoting the entire penal labor system in the USSR, then any such penal system.
A: "It was the branch of the State Security that operated the penal system of forced labour camps and associated detention and transit camps and prisons. While these camps housed criminals of all types, the Gulag system has become primarily known as a place for political prisoners and as a mechanism for repressing political opposition to the Soviet state. Though it imprisoned millions, the name became familiar in the West only with the publication of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's 1973 The Gulag Archipelago, which likened the scattered camps to a chain of islands."
Q: were there any religious persecution in the gulags?
A: A number of religious sects (such as Jehovah's Witnesses ("свидетели иеговы"), Truly Orthodox Christians ("истинно-православные христиане", Innokentians ("иннокентьевцы"), Adventists-Reformists ("адвентисты-реформисты")) were outlawed for their violation of the Soviet law "On the Separation of Church from the State and the School from the Church"
Q: why is it impossible to motivate workers under socialism?
A: Forced settlements in the Soviet Union took several forms. Though the most notorious was the Gulag labor camp system of penal labor, resettling of entire categories of population was another method of political repression. At the same time, involuntary settlement played a role in the colonization of remote areas of the Soviet Union. This role was specifically mentioned in the first Soviet decrees about involuntary labor camps.
A: Most Gulag inmates were not political prisoners, although the political prisoner population was always significant.[8] People could be imprisoned in a Gulag camp for crimes such as unexcused absences from work, petty theft, or anti-government jokes.[9] About half of the political prisoners were sent to Gulag prison camps without trial; per official data, there were more than 2.6 million imprisonment sentences in cases investigated by the secret police, 1921-1953.[10] While the Gulag was radically reduced in size following Stalin’s death in 1953, forced labor camps and political prisoners continued to exist in the Soviet Union right up to the Gorbachev era.[11] However the camps in Siberia still house a free labour force of about a million prisoners.[12] Camp guards were also given stern incentive to keep their inmates in line at all costs; if a prisoner escaped under a guard's watch, the guard would often be stripped of his uniform and become a Gulag inmate himself.
A: As an all-Union institution and a main administration with the OGPU (the Soviet secret police), the GULAG was officially established on April 25, 1930 as the "ULAG" by the OGPU order 130/63 in accordance with the Sovnarkom order 22 p. 248 dated April 7, 1930, and was renamed into GULAG in November.
A: It was being presented to the world as an example of the new Soviet way of "re-education of class enemies" and reintegrating them through labour into the Soviet society. The forced repatriation operations took place from 1945-1947.[31] At the beginning of 1953 the total number of prisoners in prison camps was more than 2.4 million of which more than 465 thousand were political prisoners.[27] The estimated total number of those who died in imprisonment in 1930-1953 is 1.76 million.
Q: how do Marxist Socialist Governments define human rights?
A: According to Soviet constitution, each individual was guaranteed civil rights, but had to sacrifice them and his/her desires to fulfill the needs of the collective. So, for example, open criticism of the Communist Party could not be allowed because it could hurt the interests of the state, society, and the progress of socialism. The Soviet concept of human rights focused on economic and social rights such as being able to have access to health care, get adequate nutrition, receive education at all levels, and be guaranteed employment.[1] The Soviets considered these to be the most important rights, which were not guaranteed by Western governments.
The propaganda for decades from Russia was if you join them you will not be unemployed. You work for the state because they nationalized all business. You can not quit though. You cannot move anywhere you want but you have guaranteed health care? This is so different from liberty associated with America.
A: Slavery is the systematic exploitation of labour. As a social-economic system, slavery is a legal or informal institution under which a person (called "a slave") is compelled to work for another (sometimes called "the master" or "slave owner").[1] Evidence of slavery predates written records, and has existed to varying extents, forms and periods in almost all cultures and continents.[2] Slaves are held against their will from the time of their capture, purchase, or birth, and are deprived of the right to leave, to refuse to work, or to receive compensation (such as wages) in return for their labour. As such, slavery is one form of unfree labor.
TYRANNY NECESSARY TO OPERATE MARXIST STATES
Today, slavery is formally outlawed in nearly all countries, but the phenomenon continues to exist in various forms around the world. [3][4] In its narrowest sense, the word "slave" refers to people who are treated as the property of another person, household, company, corporation or government. This is referred to as chattel slavery.[citation needed] Slaves are held against their will from the time of their capture, purchase, or birth, and are deprived of the right to leave, to refuse to work, or to receive compensation (such as wages) in return for their labour. Slaves cannot leave an owner, an employer or a territory without explicit permission (they must have a passport to leave), and they will be returned if they escape.
Q: Historically How Have Americans Responded to Tyrannical Leaders?
A: Jefferson, Franklin and Adams 1776: "Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God"!!
Q: Who said "Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God"?
A: "Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin." They proposed placing the motto on the Great Seal of the United States:
History Development of the Great Seal 1776
On July 4, 1776, the same day America's thirteen separate states united to declare themselves an independent nation, the Continental Congress took the next step necessary to demonstrate this Independence. They began to create their national emblem, the Great Seal of the United States.
First Great Seal Committee – July/August 1776
http://www.greatseal.com/committees/firstcomm/ 9/15/2009 12:58 AM.
"Resolved, That Dr. Franklin, Mr. J. Adams and Mr. Jefferson, be a committee, to bring in a device for a seal for the United States of America." – July 4, 1776, Journals of Continental Congress
