Contracts made, Contracts broken, LAWFUL & UNLAWFUL, and Repairing The Breach thereof


If you ever get a traffic ticket sign your name and then put under (TDC). TDC is short for Threat, duress, and coercion. You need to do this because you did sign it under TDC, because the officer put you in a state of fear when he pulled you over and had a gun in his holster. You felt like you had to go along with everything he said and wanted you to do, so you involuntarily signed the Ticket. This is the argument you will use to challenge the ticket, which is just a contract. Pretty much everything you sign and date is a contract. Without a valid voluntary offer and acceptance, knowingly entered into by both parties, there is no "meeting of the minds," and therefore no valid contract. Any supposed "contract" is therefore void, ab initio. Legal Maxim: Contractus ex turpi caus, vel contr bonos mores nullus est. A contract founded on a base of unlawful consideration, or against good morals, is null.

Now lets focus on another contract....ABRAHAMS COVENANT...Its a contract. This Coveneant was unalterable, unchangable, and everlasting, which means IT MUST EXIST TODAY!. Read the entire covenant in Genesis 17, and you willl find it not only concerned the OWNERSHIP OF ALL THE LAND  from the river Euphrates to the river Nile, but OVERSHADOWING ALL ELSE....."it" was a COVENANT...a "contract" "To be a God unto thee , and to thy seed after thee, in their generations for ever". 

FOCUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PUT ASIDE FOOLISH BICKERING AND NON-SENSE AND GRASP THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! OUR GOD FOREVER.....

Okay what does that mean? IT HAS NOT BEEN REVOKED! (for example like having your drivers license  "revoked" and you lose the priviledge to drive only YOU SURRENDERED YOUR PRIVELEDGE out of ignorance of the Law and was "TRICKED OUT OF OWNERSHIP" or put into a STATE of "fear" and co-herced out of it)...IT CAN"T BE REVOKED!!!!

NOTE that the Covenant was made not only with Abraham for  HIS LIFETIME but also with HIS SEED "forever"....but THROUGH ISAAC (Genesis 17:8-24 and Romans (:7-9) and THROUGH Isaac's SONS (aka SAXONS which translates Son of Isaac of The House of Israel  (JACOB)  NOT the House of Rothchild ...understand????? Selah.

So we find the EVERLASTING COVENANT made by Almighty God  The LORD with Abraham (Gen 17:4-8) ESTABLISHED in Issac (Gen. 26:1-5) RATIFIED and CONFIRMED to Jacob (Genesis 35:10-12). If you recall God later CHANGED THE NAME of Jacob TO ISRAEL. (Genesis 35:10) so his descendants who were the INHERITORS of The Covenant were hereafter known as Isarel. Jacob had 12 SONS, each the Head of His Own Family. THESE "specific" families DEVELOPED into the 12(TWELVE) tribed NATION of Isarel (Genesis. 35:22)... (Friends you can't get all 12 TRIBES into that one little area or STATE formed today called Isarel. Something smells of trickery here....). Jacob loved Joseph MORE than all his other children (Gen 37:3) and before Isarel DIED, Joseph brought his two sons to his father TO BE BLESSED. Isarel crossed his hands and laying his hands upon THEIR heads blessed the sons of JOSEPH- Ephraim and Mannaseh. He said LET MY NAME BE UPON THEM. Thus the ADOPTION of the two sons of Joseph CREATED ANOTHER TRIBE making 13 in all and thus Joseph received a DOUBLE PORTION. Although Joseph was displeased with his fathers RIGHT HAND being laid upon the Head of Ephraim, the younger brother, Isarel REFUSED to uncross his hands...soooooooo Ephraim, was set BEFORE Manasseh (Gen. 48:16-20). thus Mannasseh "became" the 13th Tribe and received the PROMISED of BECOMING A GREAT NATION. Ephraim was given the PROMISE of BECOMING a COMPANY of Nations (verse 48). And thus we have it so... 13 colonies "became " a GREAT NATION....and in 1911, Great Britain as a part of Common Wealth of Nation.

So there we have the CONTRACT. And as we have it with ALL contracts...can they be "broken"? or......"breached" upon a condition. HOLD THAT THOUGHT as I proceed in this study. And FOCUS.

 We all know about Moses and the Hebrew Nation going into Captivity 40 years, and God "delivered" them. So I want to move ahead a little bit to stick to the point on contracts.

So AFTER the deliverance,  The people at Mount Sinai ENTERED INTO A SOLEMN COVENANT with "their" God and King, for THEY SAID, "all that the Lord hath spoken WE WILL DO" (Exodus 24:7-8:7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said , All that the LORD hath said will we do , and be obedient . 8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said , Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words.) So what we have here is God has given His Word in Covenant and the People entered into the Contract by "agreement". So this is OUR NATIONAL "Covenant" what we as a PEOPLE OF ISRAEL "agree" TO DO in conjunction with the SEPERATE "Word" God GAVE to Abraham...and THAT BEING The Abrahamic Covenant which is TO BE A GOD UNTO ABRAHAM AND HIS SEED THROUGH ISAAC FOREVER.

Now, we KNOW that God can NOT LIE...which means THE FAULT IS NTO HIS...but The PEOPLE. And in AMERICA...THE PEOPLE are "sovereign" (WE HAVE A GOOD GOVERNMENT "of The People, BY The People....we just have some REALLY REALLY BAD POLITICS, and some "trickery at hand" within. BUT the POWER is with THE PEOPLE. so lets take this a bit further....In a perfect "business world", AGREEMENTS would be entered into, both sides would benefit and be pleased with the outcome, and no disputes would arise. But ...we know we don't live in a perfect world. So when "agreements" aren't held up we have what is called a BREACH OF CONTRACT.What is a "Breach of Contract"?

A business contract creates certain obligations that are to be fulfilled by the people or companies who entered into the agreement.  In the eyes of the law, a party's failure to fulfill an end of the bargain under a contract is known as a "breach" of the contract. Depending on the specifics of the contract, a breach can occur when a party fails to perform on time, does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement, or does not perform at all. Accordingly, a breach of contract will usually be categorized as either "material" or "immaterial" for purposes of determining the appropriate legal solution or "remedy" for the breach.

To illustrate how a breach of contract might happen in the real world, assume that ROYAL contracts with PEOPLE for the purchase of some of its products, for delivery by the following Monday evening. If ROYAL delivers the PEOPLE on the following Tuesday morning, such a breach of the contract would likely be deemed immaterial, and ROYAL would likely not be entitled to money damages (unless he could show that he was somehow damaged by the late delivery). However, assume now that the contract stated clearly and explicitly that "time is of the essence" and the PEOPLE MUST be delivered on Monday. If PEOPLE delivers after Monday, its breach of contract would likely be deemed "material," and ROYAL damages would be presumed, makingPEOPLE liability for the breach more severe, and likely relieving ROYAL of the duty to pay for the people under the contract. (take this and compare it both business and spiritually for we the people are Go'd Property by Covenant and thus can not be made "collateral" to DEBT which is NOT OURS...think abit deeper here people. IS this DEBT this Government has amassed "ours" or The Bankers and The Governments or The People. Stay with me here.....

What Happens After a Contract is Breached?

When a breach of contract happens (or when a breach is alleged), one or both of the parties may wish to have the contract enforced on its terms, or may try to recover for any financial harm caused by the alleged breach.

If a dispute over a contract arises and informal attempts at resolution fail, the most common method used to resolve contract disputes and enforce contracts is through lawsuits and the court system. If the amount at issue is below a certain dollar figure (usually $3,000 to $7,500 depending on the state), the parties may be able to use "small claims" court to resolve the issue.

Courts and formal lawsuits are not the only option for people and businesses involved in contract disputes. The parties can agree to have a mediator review a contract dispute, or may agree to binding arbitration of a contract dispute. These out-of-court options are two methods of "alternative dispute resolution."

No matter what avenue is chosen to remedy a breach of contract, the non-breaching party will most likely be entitled to some kind of remedy under the law.

Remedies for a Breach of Contract (recall Gods Word tells us we shall be CALLED Repairers of the Breach in Isaiah).

When an individual or business breaches a contract, the other party to the agreement is entitled to relief (or a "remedy") under the law. The main remedies for a breach of contract are (1) damages, (2) specific performance, (3) or cancellation and restitution.

Damages

The remedy that is most often used for a breach of contract is the remedy of damages -- payment in one form or another, made by the breaching party to the non-breaching party. There are many kinds of damages, and generally speaking damages may be very specific to the kind of breach that has occurred. Following are some guidelines on damages.

Compensatory damages aim to put the non-breaching party in the position that they had been if the breach had not occurred.

Punitive damages are payments that the breaching party must make, above and beyond the point that would fully compensate the non-breaching party.  Punitive damages are meant to punish a wrongful party for particularly wrongful acts, and are rarely awarded in the business contracts setting.

Nominal damages are token damages awarded when a breach occurred, but no actual money loss to the non-breaching party was proven.

LIQUIDATED damages are specific damages that were previously identified by the parties in the contract itself, in the event that the contract is breached. Liquidated damages should be a reasonable estimate of actual damages that might result from a breach.

Specific Performance. If damages are inadequate as a legal remedy, the non-breaching party may seek an alternative remedy called specific performance.  Specific performance is best described as the breaching party's court-ordered performance of duty under the contract.  Specific performance may be used as a remedy for breach of contract if the subject matter of the agreement is rare or unique, and damages would not suffice to place the non-breaching party in as good a position as they would have been had the breach not occurred.

Cancellation and Restitution. A non-breaching party may cancel the contract and sue for restitution if the non-breaching party has given a benefit to the breaching party. "Restitution" as a contract remedy means that the non-breaching party is put back in the position it was in prior to the breach, while "cancellation" of the contract voids the contract and relieves all parties of any obligation under the agreement.

Okay now after having cover THE LEGALITIES. Allow me to go to The Word for what The Lord desires of us HIS PEOPLE.

Is this not the fast that I have chosen:

To loose the bonds of wickedness,
To undo the heavy burdens,
To let the oppressed go free,
And that you break every yoke?
Is it not to share your bread with the hungry,
And that you bring to your house the poor who are cast out;
When you see the naked, that you cover him,
And not hide yourself from your own flesh?
Then your light shall break forth like the morning,
Your healing shall spring forth speedily,
And your righteousness shall go before you;
The glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard.
Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer;
You shall cry, and He will say, ‘Here I am.’


“If you take away the yoke from your midst,
The pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness,
If you extend your soul to the hungry
And satisfy the afflicted soul,
Then your light shall dawn in the darkness,
And your darkness shall be as the noonday.
The LORD will guide you continually,
And satisfy your soul in drought,
And strengthen your bones;
You shall be like a watered garden,
And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
Those from among you
Shall build the old waste places;
You shall raise up the foundations of many generations;
And you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach,
The Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.
“If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath,
From doing your pleasure on My holy day,
And call the Sabbath a delight,
The holy day of the LORD honorable,
And shall honor Him, not doing your own ways,
Nor finding your own pleasure,
Nor speaking your own words,
Then you shall delight yourself in the LORD;
And I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth,
And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father.
The mouth of the LORD has spoken.”

Isaiah 58: 6-14 (KJV)

This is the fasted life that brings true Honor to the Lord. Previously in this passage the Lord is rebuking Israel for putting on the appearance of a fast but then living out the opposite and wondering why God would not answer them. If we seek an answer from God, we should probably start inspecting our walk with Him to be sure we are living in a way that pleases Him.

Don't forget that the yoke is light and the burden is easy and that God promises to be our rear guard. If you don't understand the meaning of the rear guard, then consider the Israelites in Exodus 14 that had been freed from Egypt just to be consumed by Pharoah and his army in front of the Red Sea. What God did was buy them time, and then set them free. (this reminds me of his touch on us now before the 5 month cpativity to prepare for the day...that is IF  you aren't sitting around waiting on some Rapture).He literally was their rear guard by bringing darkness to Israel's enemy and bright light to them. The same promise applies to each of us. I think it's easy at tiems to gt distracted to forget this promise. But God always sets us up to learn greater trust and dependency on Him. Taking us to the very precipice of disaster, just to come in at the last possible moment and deliver us.

I don't know about you, but I want to know this God of the Israelites. He seems quite different from what I've seen and experienced growing up. As far as leadership...NO leader in this White House has OUR interests at heart but it is soooooooooo obvious to those who truly are trying  can see this great Love and desire MORE OF IT.

What leaps out to me from this passage is the section about raising up the foundation of many generations and that, if we choose to live this fasted life to the Lord, we will be called Repairers of the Breach. I'm certainly no theologian or scholar but the first thought that comes to mind is that Christ is the true Restorer and Repairer. I did a little research on this "Repairers of the Breach" phrase and here's something interesting I found: "to repel the enemy, which would be the act of the bravest soldiers, who would expose their lives to most imminent peril."
In other words, the Breach is where the enemy has gained ground into the wall surrounding the city. Repairing the breach would imply removing the enemy from within, and then rebuilding the wall (see Nehemiah for a detailed look on wall building).  This confirms for me what God has set us out to do: to repair and restore the broken with everything we know and to ASK Him for guidance to that which we do not know. Also, I was reading in Exodus where the Israelites are complaining about--well, what weren't they complaining about--and they asked Moses to pray to make everything...God sent vicious vipers.(and everytime I see confusion break out on FB or online, or around me ...these vipors come to mind). Then they asked Him to take it away, but He said no. He says something to the extent of "why would I take this away when it makes you talk to me?!" I love that!! God pretty much lets us go through hard things because we talk to Him. It just reminds me that God is in control.

I'm honestly not entirely sure what this means for us, but I know it's highly significant. Jesus, would you make us all Repairers of what's been broken and stolen from OUR lives, OUR land, OUR NATION under God, OUR groups. LETS  Keep our eyes on HIM and for HIM to give us supernatural strength to overcome the enemy. We have no plan apart from your deliverance. Strengthen our weak hands and feeble knees. Keep us from "nit-picking". Galatians 5:15 LOVE CAN NOT INVOLVE HATE...talk about the walking dead for to mix such is SPIRITUAL CANNIBALISM.

In conclusion: 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.2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV

EZEKIAL 13:5 clearly states our remedy...You have not gone up into the breaches, neither built up the wall for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.13:1-9 Where God gives a warrant to do any thing, he gives wisdom. What they delivered was not what they had seen or heard, as that is which the ministers of Christ deliver. They were not praying prophets, had no intercourse with Heaven; they contrived how to please people, not how to do them good; they stood not against sin. They flattered people into vain hopes. Such widen the breach, by causing men to think themselves deserving of eternal life, when the wrath of God abides upon them.

Come Father, scatter the deceivers, take vengence upn our enemies, grant wisdom to DO THY WILL, and circumcize the HEARTS OF YOUR PEOPLE to stay clear of vain and silly disagreements that do NOTHING to move us in UNISON to Repair The Breach within , whereby We can be delivered again from bondage, and be restored BACK to being YOUR PEOPLE. Your WORD was set, our people have not honored OUR agreement with you. Amen.
