Well let me give you the after action report on the Black Robe Regiment Summit.
First of all this event should not have in any way had the sacred name of the Black Robe Regiment tied to it.
I’ll try and keep this brief and just hit the highlights.
First on Thursday night Pastor Shahram Hadian called me and wanted to talk to me. He said that I was one of the only speakers coming who he had not met personally and that he really didn’t know anything about me. After a few minutes of us talking he gets to the real reason he was calling. He stated that he had watched my New Declaration on YouTube and that he had concerns. He stated that the Pastors that were coming to this event were not at that point yet. He said he agreed personally with everything that I had written in the New Declaration, however he kept pushing to get me to agree to drop it.
I told him that if my words in the New Declaration were too harsh for the Black Robe Regiment they should not be called the Black Robe Regiment and should not have promoted the event as such. Anyway it was disappointing and frustrating. I think he was just trying to get me to back out. Wasn’t happening especially after the last couple weeks I’d had. So I agreed to not read the New Declaration but I refused to seek approval for the rest of my speech. I was beginning to wonder if I would be allowed to speak at all, as he was saying he was probably going to have to move me etc.
So what’s in a name?
When a group of domestic terrorist who call themselves “Anti-Fascist” burn down cities, or a group of Marxist bring death and destruction on the black lives they proclaim “matter,” it’s par for the course. They’re evil. That’s what they do. The banner under which they perform their demonic actions is chosen specifically for those nefarious reasons. It’s a wicked joke to gaslight those who are paying attention and turn reality on it’s head.
In contrast, when a group of Christian ministers once again takes up the sacred name of the hallowed Black Robe Regiment, the Colonial era pastors who preached Liberty, trained militia’s, and then took the lead in our bloody fight for freedom from Great Britain, what should we expect? That’s what I went to Knoxville, Tennessee for the Elijah’s Remnant and Black Robe Regiment Conference to find out.
It was a day and half of packed back-to-back speakers. There was a heavy emphasis on Prayer. In my opinion the best speaker of course was me. Just joking.
National Security expert Steve Coughlin vividly illustrated how there is NO Political solution in our two party system since the GOP only occupies the right aisle of a shared Ship of State that is forever charting to the left. What does it matter if Republicans are “better than the Democrats!” when they’re all in the same boat together?
Nurse Debi Stafford was great and I really enjoyed her presentation about Covid especially since my Father-in-law had just passed on Tuesday May the 4th due to complications from Covid.
Dr. Alan Keyes gave a rousing speech explaining how our God-given rights as expressed in the Declaration of Independence are the lynchpin of our society and how their abandonment and infringement had brought us under Tyranny.
Rev. Bill Cook founder of America’s Black Robe Regiment provided an excellent presentation on the history and mission of the original Black Robe Regiment whose memory and actions have been forgotten to our great detriment.
Dr. Scott Lively was fired up and I’m pretty sure he forgot what he was going to say when he got up there and just took off riffing against this evil government we are faced with. It was great. I got to speak with him one on one a few times and I really like him and I’ll be buying some of his books.
Overall pretty much every speaker hit on the need for prayer, the anger over how the election was stolen and the irrational hope that Trump will magically be reinstalled in the White House.
But there were very few calls for “action” and there were definitely no plans presented on how to move forward other than VOTE.
Which makes me laugh.
Words such as “fight,” “war,” and “battle” were used extensively even in the worship songs. However each time such a word was used, it basically came with a little asterisk and disclaimer “Please note: It is important to stress that due to our fear of the Powers that Be and desire to look like Nice Guys, we don’t really advocate taking ANY of the actions that the original Black Robe Regiment took.”
Unless this group who call themselves the Black Robe Regiment are willing to do the same things the original one did, their efforts will amount to no more than cos play.
Overall the event was just ok for me. I will be forever grateful to Pastor Richard May for inviting me and giving me the honor to speak in front of this crowd. It was a great opportunity and it was nice to put faces with names. I met a lot of great people. My speech was greatly accepted and I spent a lot of time with the crowd after the event. I really appreciated all the kind words and prayers from the folks who sought me out to get a copy of the New Declaration afterwards. It was really touching. I’ll never forget this experience.
With all that being said I present to you the Speech that was too hot to handle for the Black Robe Regiment Summit and we’ll post the video soon:
Wes
I want to concentrate today from Isaiah Chapter 6. It begins like this:
“In the year that King Uzziah died”
God takes notice of and directs earthly politics and uses these factors in His perfect timing.
As Benjamin Franklin stated during the Constitutional Convention, “I’ve lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing Proofs I see of this Truth — That God governs in the Affairs of Men.
Uzziah had been a good king. He had rebuilt the military. He had restored the economic well-being of his nation. He was so successful that his praise spread throughout the land. However, instead of honoring God, his success filled him with pride.
At the height of his power, he entered the temple and tried to usurp the priests’ authority by offering incense. For this arrogance and disobedience, he was immediately stricken with leprosy. Leprosy is a horrific disease that causes the human body to slowly rot and decay and fall away. Isn’t this the perfect analogy for the decline of our once great nation? It shows that when such a deadly pathogen has taken hold, there is no political leader with the ability to MAGA. We cannot vote our way out of such a predicament.
As Samuel Adams said: “A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.”
This would have been an easy time for the godly to lose hope and give up. There was no leader and there was no plan. But, in God’s perfect timing, it was the opportunity for a new vision and an invitation for a new mission.
Isaiah continues: “I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. 2 Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one cried to another and said:
“Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts;
The whole earth is full of His glory!”
4 And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.”
It was only when the temporal things surrounding Isaiah had been taken away that he was able to finally see what was truly of consequence – the eternal God Who governs in the affairs of men – and to see Him in His rightful place: high, and lifted up, and full of power and glory and authority.
This is the same vision we must embrace and the perspective we must keep. For we do not fight against flesh and blood, but we fight against spiritual wickedness in high places. It is only through the Power of Almighty God that we will overcome.
And as Romans 8:31 reminds us, “If God be for us, then who can be against us?”
Over the course of this past year, things have come into much sharper focus. Many of those we thought were on our side have shown themselves not to be. Many of the liberties we thought our fellow citizens held dear have been discarded. Our ranks seem to grow thinner with each successive tightening of arbitrary guidelines and mandates. It can be easy to despair. But to do so is to lose focus on the ultimate Truth at play in our daily lives and our divine destiny.
As Patrick Henry said: “Three millions of people, armed in the holy cause of liberty, and in such a country as that which we possess, are invincible by any force which our enemy can send against us. Beside, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of Nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.”
Chapter 6 continues: “So I said:
“Woe is me, for I am [a]undone!
Because I am a man of unclean lips,
And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips;
For my eyes have seen the King,
The LORD of hosts.
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. 7 And he touched my mouth with it, and said:
“Behold, this has touched your lips;
Your iniquity is taken away,
And your sin [b]purged.”
Truly seeing God for Who He is puts everything else in perspective, beginning with ourselves.
A pandemic of Unclean Lips has ravaged our nation over this past year – from 2 weeks to slow the spread, to 30 days to bend the curve, to “Love thy neighbor, wear a mask,” to submit to Government testing and tracking if you ever want to get your life back.
But there is an antidote for this poison and a vaccine for this infection:
II Chronicles 7:14 says: “If MY people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
The path to national healing and restoration begins with the step of individual humility and repentance.
This cannot be stressed enough. To attempt to fight this battle in our own strength and understanding will doom us to certain defeat and destruction.
Then Isaiah continues: “8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying:
“Whom shall I send,
And who will go for Us?”
Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”
When our hearts are right before God, then our Mission will be made clear one step at a time.
The divine Invitation is open to all of us – and the Responsibility is upon all of us.
This is the meeting of the Black Robed Regiment. It should be full of ministers from all corners of the nation. Instead, most of the so-called pastors behind American pulpits today have no clue what the Black Robed Regiment even was.
So who will go for us? I may be the only speaker here who is not a Pastor, but I say, “Here am I! Send me!”
Just as Black Lives Matter and Critical Race Theory are destroying our history and rewriting it right in front of our eyes, the Christian Church has failed to pass on its true history and legacy to today’s generations.
The Divine Call went out, but no one answered.
So who will go for us? I say, “Here am I! Send me!”
Just as Bible verses such as “God is Love” and “Judge Not” have been twisted by Progressives into excusing or even celebrating sin and declaring Good that which God has declared Evil, the Marxist infiltration of the Church has seen us go from the Church Militant of a century ago to the Church Effeminate of today. The ungodly application of Romans 13 “Let every soul be subject to the Higher Power….” has resulted in the Church becoming the handmaiden of the State in its implementation of Tyranny.
So who will go for us? I say, “Here am I! Send me!”
Romans 13 has been repurposed and weaponized against us into Alinsky’s Rule 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” Romans 13 is not God’s divine command to surrender to Tyranny. To argue this is to argue that Jesus would not want us to keep the Nazi’s waiting at the train station. Romans 13 is Prescriptive NOT Descriptive just as “Children obey your parents,” and “Wives submit to your husbands” are NOT blanket statements.
St. Paul who recorded these words was himself executed for refusing to be subject to the tyranny of the State. Spineless churchmen and hirelings today hide behind this verse taken out of context as a Christian veneer to cover their own cowardice and complicity in our destruction.
We do not live under Nero the way the Martyrs of the Early Church did. We do not (yet) live under open Communism the way the Christian Church in China does. We still enjoy more God-given Liberty than most places on the face of the earth. We are as Free as we have the desire to be and only have the Tyranny to which we accede. Yet our countrymen scorn and discard these gifts of God.
So who will go for us? I say, “Here am I! Send me!”
Jesus said to “Render unto Caesar that which belongs to Caesar.” I do not belong to Caesar. My children do not belong to Caesar. My family does not belong to Caesar. My church does not belong to Caesar. My job does not belong to Caesar. My mind does not belong to Caesar. My hopes and dreams do not belong to Caesar. My future does not belong to Caesar. My God-given Rights do NOT belong to Caesar.
So who will go for us? I say, “Here am I! Send me!”
Just as those on the Right marvel at the disconnect between those on the Left who claim to be Christians yet support abortion and legally sanctioned immorality, we on the Right must stop living a disconnect between our Sunday Church persona and our Monday through Saturday daily lives. There are those who say they will fight when the battle comes to the door of their own church. But we are required to be irritating, cleansing Salt and darkness dispelling Light BEFORE it ever gets to that point.
So who will go for us? I say, “Here am I! Send me!”
We must live by God’s Commands in every area of our daily lives. The Ninth Commandment forbids us to lie (to bear False Witness). We must live in the Truth that it is just as much a lie to wear a worthless face mask and nurture the ungodly Spirit of Fear in our fellow citizens while calling it “Loving thy Neighbor” as it is evil to support the killing of the unborn by calling it “the Right to Choose.” Both ungodly slogans are lies told by unclean lips.
So who will go for us? I say, “Here am I! Send me!”
In the U.S. , WE THE PEOPLE are the Government and the Christian God of the Bible alone is our Highest Power.
All US Citizens are equal before the Law of Nature and Nature’s God.
We are not to “be subject” of the President, the Governor or any elected official and at any point they are not in alignment with Scripture and our Constitutional Rule of Law we are required by Scripture “to obey God rather than men.”
Under the mandate of Romans 13, the President, the Governor and any elected officials are required to be the FIRST to fully obey the Constitutional Law of Nature and Nature’s God – not create unlawful mandates for us to obey.
To be subject to our elected officials when they are in to this Truth is not being a “good citizen,” it is being an outlaw and in open rebellion to God Himself.
But who will carry such a message to America today?
Here am I – send me!
In this Spirit of submission to Almighty God and following the example of our Founders who, when declaring their Independence from a far less invasive tyranny, set forth their case in their eloquent Declaration, I’d like to offer this New Declaration of Independence.
Read the New Declaration Here….
Thank you,
Wes
