Posting a Close over the Land, not a No Trespassing Sign
In reading the notice at the bottom of this article, you might think it says the same thing your commercial “NO TRESPASSING” sign says, and this is just so difficult to understand. I am here to tell you there is a universe of difference between the two—a great chasm separating them if you will. Chaff is not wheat, and wheat is not chaff.
We are to enter into that Righteous Relationship with God, through our Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus, by the Grace God gives to men called for His righteous Purposes. It is this relationship which is evidenced to the world by the outward acts (James 2:14-26).
“Outward acts indicate inward intent.” Bouvier’s Law Dictionary (1914), “Maxim,” p. 2124.
“Acts indicate the intention.” Bouvier’s Law Dictionary (1914), “Maxim,” p. 2124.
The Intent of a bondservant of Christ is twofold: One, to walk meekly before God our Father doing all things for His Glory and Majesty to the end of revealing to the world Him and the Superiority of His Ways as you walk in them; and, Two, to Lawfully execute the Duties and Powers appertaining to the Noble and Sacred Office of the Christ, for the Glory of His only Begotten Son.
God, through His Son, bestows conditional Authority, Powers, Privileges and Immunities to those called by Him. The conditional nature is that those who are called must answer that call by ministering for Him, not for themselves. Let us make no mistake about this—no one has any inherent Lawful “right” to adoption by God. Thus, it is not a matter of “self-will” or “personal choice.” It is solely a matter of the Grace of Him Who calls you to repentance. And with it, men find that eternal life in Him Who called them. Having once been called and regenerated by the Power of the Holy Spirit, a new creature is born in a Venue separate from the will of men; and are not subordinate to the will of men, but submissive or meek (praus) only to the voice of their only Master and Shepherd Christ Jesus, the Author of the call. To be born of the Spirit of God is not to be born of the spirit of codes, rules, and regulations. Therefore, the stranger is one who comes in the name or warrant of such things, which are not general laws emanating from the Body of Christ,
Ecclesia The Greek and Latin term for the Christian Church as a whole.
Ekklesia (ecclesia) (think tank), a British think tank examining the role of religion in public life. His ekklesia. This may seem harsh, but stranger is the appropriate word. Because Christ Jesus is the Only Door, then those who do not have that relationship with Him are strangers, not being His several Ministerial Officers executing His Testament.
God, through His Son Christ Jesus, bestows conditionally Rights, Powers, Privileges and Immunities to those called by Him. Let us make no mistake about this—no one has any inherent Lawful right to adoption by God. Thus, it is not a matter of “self-will” or “choice.” This is solely a matter of Grace of Him Who calls you to repentance. In this sense, you are under the Grace of God, for without it all would perish. But with it, men find that eternal life in Him Who called. Having once been called and regenerated by the Power of the Holy Spirit, a new creature is born in a Venue separate from the will of men; and are not subordinate to the will of men, but submissive or meek (praus) only to the voice of the Shepherd Christ Jesus, the Author of the call. To be born of the Spirit of God is not to be born of the spirit of codes, rules, and regulations. Therefore, the stranger is one who comes in the name or warrant of such things, which are not general laws emanating from the Body of Christ, the church. This may seem harsh at first, but because Christ Jesus is the Door then those who do not have that relationship with Him, or His several Ministerial Officers executing His Testament, stranger is the appropriate word:
STRANGERS. By this term is intended third persons generally.
Thus the persons bound by a fine are parties, privies, and strangers; the parties are either cognizors or cognizees; the privies are such as are in any way related to those who levy the fine, and claim under them by any right of blood, or other right of representation [*Christ Jesus is our Mediator]; the strangers are all other persons in the world, except only the parties and privies. In its general legal signification the term is opposed to the word ‘privy.’ Those who are in no way parties to a covenant [*establishing the Inheritance and adoption], nor bound by it [*Lawless, anomian and antinomians] are also said to be strangers to the covenant. Brown. See Robbins v. Chicago, 4 Wall. 672, 18 L.Ed. 427; Wilson v. Smith, 213 Ky. 836, 281 S.W. 1008, 1010; State v. Mills, 23 N.M. 549, 169 P. 1171, 1173; Gronewold v. Gronewold, 304 Ill. 11, 136 N.E. 489, 490. See, also, STRANGER.” Black’s Law Dictionary (4th ed., 1968), p. 1590. [Emphasis and insertions added.]
Beware then, of those who come in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravening wolves, seeking whom they may devour: “PERSONATE. In criminal law. To assume the person (character) of another, without his consent or knowledge, in order to deceive others, and, in such feigned character, to fraudulently do some act or gain some advantage, to the harm or prejudice of the person counterfeited. 2 East, P.C. 1010. To pass one’s self off as another having a certain identity. Lane v. U.S., C.C.A.Ohio, 17 F.2d 923.” Black’s Law Dictionary (4th ed., 1957 & 1968), p. 1301. The stranger is of the will of man, for the Ways of God are not the ways of man:
Isaiah 55:8-9, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
If you are an heir, then you must manifest such by bearing the fruits of repentance—obedience and meekness—and claim that Inheritance of God given you through Christ Jesus, “for the meek shall inherit the earth.” See Mt 5:5 and Ps 37:11. Such is the foregoing notice—but it is not the earth you Inherit—it is the Close you Inherit, that Righteous Warrant in the Law which establishes the Power to claim the land in His Name and not your own. We cannot, and, in deed must not, use any commercial counterfeits. Why? Because of the following maxims of Law:
“The cause and origin is the substance of the thing; the cause and origin of a thing are a material part of it.” Black’s Law Dictionary (4th ed., 1957 & 1968), p. 278; Bouvier’s Law Dictionary (1914), “Maxim,” p. 2127. “That which is the principal part of a thing is the thing itself.” Bouvier’s Law Dictionary (1914), “Maxim,” p. 2166.
If you use a commercial counterfeit, then the source is not God’s Law—it is the lex mercatoria. Thus, there is no sanctification or separation from and between yourself and the commercial world. You will have ignorantly imported the fiction over the Truth in Christ Jesus, thereby marring the Seal of, and grieving, the Holy Spirit of God our Father. You must declare the Law written on your heart having the Seal of the Spirit of God which evidences and witnesses your adoption by God our Father in and through Christ Jesus. It is the adoption and evidence or witness of the Holy Spirit which gives evidence or witness of interest in the Close declared by the Law. The two are like a hand in a glove. If you use a commercial counterfeit, the foot does not fit a glove made for the hand; neither does a sock properly fit a hand. You must use the law fit for the purpose and God’s Law is the only law that governs the Close given you by Him through Christ Jesus:
Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” [This is the original act bringing the estate into being. All other derivative estates are necessarily dependent upon and governed by the Intent and Will of God, our Creator.]
“The law is the highest inheritance that the king possesses; for by the law both he and all his subjects are ruled; and if there were no law, there would be neither king nor inheritance.” Bouvier’s Law Dictionary (1914), “Maxim,” p. 2142.
“The law of God and the law of the land are all one; and both preserve and favor the common good of the land.” Bouvier’s Law Dictionary (1914), “Maxim,” p. 2142.
“But one who is prevented from doing a contemplated illegal act cannot maintain an action for damages for the interference with his illegal purpose.” Bangor, etc., R. Co. v. Smith, 49 Me. 9, 77 Am.D. 246.
“Trespass distinguished. Waste is an injury to the inheritance by one rightfully in possession of the property. Trespass is an injury to the estate or the use thereof by one who is a stranger to the title, with no right whatever in the property.” Stephenson v. National Bank of Winter Haven, 109 So. 424, 425, 92 Fla. 347; Brigham v. Overstreet, 57 S.E. 484, 128 Ga. 447, 10 L.R.A.N.S. 452, 11 Ann.Cas. 75; Dahlquist v.

The Close
Notice to All Breaking the Close over this land:
Obedient sons of God our Father solely by His Grace through our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus the Christ, to all breaking this Close of and over this land, greetings from God our Father, and His Son Christ Jesus:
In the Blessed Name and Authority of our Lord and Saviour Jesus the Christ, by His Direction and Mandate and under His Warrant in His Testament, we hereby post the following at the gates to this Close of and over this land and on the door posts of the dwelling-house thereof: Whereas, the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof, and His Intent manifested in His original Act in His Testament of bringing into being His Estate governs all derived from it; therefore when God our Father sent His Son to execute His Testament according to His Will, so His Son sent into the world those called by Him from the foundation of the world for His Dignity, Glory, Majesty and Purposes; and,
Whereas, all Power in heaven and in earth hath been committed to Christ Jesus by God our Father, Who bestows the same upon those Whom He hath called and sent into the world in execution of, and to execute, the Righteous Judgments in His Holy Writ in His Name and under His Warrants contained therein; and,
Whereas, as many as believe in and on His Son He gives the power to become the sons of God by and through adoption, and a son hath Inheritance common in all other sons through and in Christ Jesus, therefore the Close of and over this land and all Dominion in and of the Inheritance established by, through and in Christ Jesus, have been Willed by God our Father, through our Sovereign Lord and Saviour Jesus the Christ, to His sons and his seed in perpetuity; and,
Whereas, the Will of our King and Testator in His Law and Testament instituting the Inheritance establishes and governs the Dominion of those who Inherit the Close of and over this land instituted by our King in His Law and Testament, therefore those who act and do contrary to the Will of our King and Testator are not His sons, but bastards, having no Close or Dominion in and to any Inheritance established by the Will of our Blessed King and Testator; and,
Whereas, the Law of God and the law of the land are all one, and both favour and preserve the common good of the land, therefore ignorance of God’s Law is no excuse, for all men know God, even His eternal Power and Godhood, and are not presumed ignorant of their eternal welfare; and,
Wherefore, any and all who enter here without consent evidenced by Warrant in Law from God our Father, through our Sovereign Lord and Saviour Jesus the Christ, and His several appointed Ministerial Officers having and being of one Mind in the Christ, but enter either in their own name or by the name of a stranger having no Dominion of and in the Inheritance common among all bondservants of Jesus the Christ:
One, break this Close;
Two, breach the Peace of our King, by violating His Law establishing this Close and all Powers appertaining to His Noble and Sacred Ministerial Office;
Three, disturb, and thereby destroy the Domestic Tranquility of His sons;
Four, endanger His Inheritance in and of His sons by adoption; and,
Five, are, in His Law governing this Close, trespassers, thieves, and robbers having not entered through the Door; and, Therefore, an action of trespass quare clausam fregit will lie against all such who break this Close through or under such pretenses or color of Law.
