THE VATICAN ISLAMIC
TEMPLAR JESUIT MASONIC
ILLUMINATI SHRINER MAFIA
CROWN BAR ESQUIRES ;
A zeal for the discovery of new territory
marked the fifteenth century.
The first navigations for this purpose were
concerted and directed by prince Henry.
Born 1394, the fourth son of John I.
king of Portugal.
His valor in the assault and capture of the city :
Ceuta in Africa 1415, presaged the fame he
afterward acquired.
From this period he devoted himself to
naval expeditions for the discovery of
unknown countries.
His ships subjected divers parts of Africa
and the neighboring islands to the dominion
of Portugal.
After the success in doubling cape Bojadoy,
he gave to his father and successors all
the land he discovered, or might discover,
and applied to Pope Martin V to ratify
the donation.
He engaged that in all their expeditions
the Portuguese should have mainly in view
the extension of the Roman church and
authority of its pontiff.
Pope Martin granted the prince's request.
In his bull of ratification, which was about
the year 1430, it is declared that:
"whatever might be discovered from the
said cape to the utmost India, should
pertain to the Portuguese dominion."
Edward, brother of prince Henry, succeeded
to the throne of Portugal 1433, on the
death of John I.
Pope Eugene IV. by his bull in 1438,
ratified, to Edward, the grant made by
Martin V.
A bull of Nicholas V. dated 8 Jan 1454,
refers to the aforesaid bulls of his predecessors,
Martin and Eugene.
It recites the declaration prince Henry
made of his achievements
"that for 25 years he had not ceased to
send annually almost an army" of Portuguese,
"with the greatest dangers, labors and charges,
in the most swift ships, to search out the
sea and maritime provinces toward the
southern parts and Antarctic Pole."
that these ships
"came at length to the province of Guinea,
and took possession of some islands, havens
and sea adjoining" that
"sailing further, war was waged for some
years with the people of those parts, and
very many islands near thereunto were
subdued and peaceably possessed, and
were still possessed with the adjacent sea"
that
"many Guineans and other negroes were
taken then by force, and some by barter."
The bull describes Henry as
"a true soldier of Christ, a most courageous
defender and intrepid champion of the faith,
aspiring from his early youth with his utmost
might to have the glorious name of Christ
published, extolled and revered throughout
the world."
It recognizes the exclusive right of Portugal
to the acquisitions and possessions aforesaid,
in virtue of the letters of Popes Martin and
Eugene, which granted to the king of Portugal
and prince Henry
"free and ample faculty to invade, search out,
expunge, vanquish and subdue all pagans
and enemies of Christ whosesoever placed,
and their persons to reduce to perpetual
slavery, and all their kingdoms, possessions
and goods to apply and appropriate," etc.
Pope Nicholas's letter then goes on to
"decree and declare, the acquests already
made, and what hereafter shall happen
to be acquired, after that they shall be
acquired, have pertained, and forever
of right do belong and pertain to the
aforesaid king and his successors,
and not to any others whatever."
It forbids, on the severest penalties, all
Christian powers from settling in the
countries discovered by the Portuguese,
or any way molesting them in their
expeditions for the discovery and conquest
of unknown countries.
It speaks of prince Henry's plan and his
prosecution of it as "a most pious work,
and most worthy of perpetual remembrance,
wherein the glory of God, where the interest
of the commonwealth of the universal church
are concerned."
Thus was prince Henry's views and operations
sanctioned by the highest authority, at that time,
acknowledged in Christendom.
A right derived from a source so venerable
was then undisputed.
The Roman pontiff bound princes at his
pleasure, and as Vicar of Christ, was
allowed to have at his disposal all the
kingdoms of the earth.
This grant of Pope Nicholas was confirmed
by his successor: Calixtus III. 6 August 1458.
On the death of Edward, his son Alphonsus,
then in his minority, succeeded to the throne
of Portugal, 1438, and died 1481.
Prince Henry died 1460-63.
At his death the spirit of discovery languished,
but revived with the accession of John II.,
son of Alphonsus.
The year after his accession (1482), sent
an embassy to Edward IV. of England,
to acquaint him with the title acquired by
the Pope's bull to the conquest in Guinea:
requesting him to dissolve a fleet, which
some English merchants were fitting for
the Guinea (slave) trade.
The king of England showed great respect
to the ambassadors and granted all they
required.
The king of Portugal assumed, and the king
of England gave him, this style,
Rex Portugalie et Algarbiorum citra at ultra
mare in Africa.
Pope Sixtus IV., not long before his death
(12 Aug 1484), confirmed all the grants
made by his predecessors, to the kings
of Portugal and their successors.
In 1481 John II. sent 100 artificers,
500 soldiers, and all necessities to build a
fort in Guinea.
The large kingdoms of Benin and Congo
were discovered 1484-85, and the Cape
of Good Hope 1486.
The Portuguese built forts and planted
colonies in Africa: established a commercial
intercourse with the powerful kingdoms,
and compelled the petty princes, by force
of arms, to acknowledge themselves vassals.
At this period, and by these means, the
power and commerce of the Portuguese in
Africa were well established.
The wholesome decrees of five successive
Roman pontiffs granted, conveyed and
confirmed to the most faithful king a right
to appropriate the kingdoms, goods and
possessions of all infidels, wherever to be
found,
"to reduce their persons to perpetual slavery
or destroy them from the earth",
for the declared purpose of bringing the
Lord's sheep into one dominical fold, under
one universal pastor.
Succeeding kings of Portugal have not
forfeited the large grant by any undutiful ness
to their holy father.
Portugal long enjoyed the trade to Africa
and the East Indies without interference
of any European power.
For more than half a century, before
exporting any negroes from Africa, she
made and held them slaves in their native
country.
The Portuguese first imported slaves into
Hispaniola 1508, and into their Brazilian
colonies 1517.
Their sugar works were first set up in these
colonies 1580.
Their union with Spain, at that time, was
most unfortunate for them.
The Dutch became their enemy, who took
their East-India and Brazilian conquests and
parts of their African colonies.
They recovered Brazil and their African
establishments 1640, but not that of India.
After the Dutch gave up Brazil and the gold
mines were discovered, the trade of Portugal
improved and a great importation of slaves
took place: carrying yearly from Loangro to
Brazil: 25,000, also many thousands from
Goango and Cape Lopos.
They themselves say they carry to Brazil
50,000 and more every year from Melinda,
on the Mozambique coast.
Such had been the increase of their Brazilian
and African colonies for a century that their
increase in English goods, annually, was
greater than that of Portugal and Spain
combined prior to 1700.
Spanish America received slaves from the
Genoese, Portuguese, French and English.
Every state purchased from Spain seceded
from the union (1861).
The Vatican was the only country to
acknowledge sovereignty to the
Confederacy.
Before, during and long after the African slave
trade ended: the heads of state of Spain and
Portugal were addressed (and may still be),
in formal title, by foreign dignitaries/heads
of state, as: "His/Her Catholic Majesty"
(U.S. State Dept. records): thereby
acknowledging them, only, as emissaries
of the pope.

Unto Christ was given full abundance of all grace
that we might receive of him the only fountain ;
From :
The Geneva Bible
New Testament ,
The Holy Gospel Of Jesus Christ,
According To John Chapter 3
1 Christ teacheth Nicodemus
the very principles of Christian regeneration.
14 The serpent in the wilderness.
23 John baptizeth,
27 and teacheth his, that he is not Christ.
1 There (1) was now a man of the Pharisees,
named Nicodemus, a (a) ruler of the Jews.
(1) There are none sometimes more unlearned,
than the learned, but as well the learned as the
unlearned must desire wisdom of Christ only.
(a) A man of great estimation, and a ruler
amongst the Jews.
2 This man came to Jesus by night, and said
unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a
(b) teacher come from God, for no man could
do these miracles that thou doest, (c) except
God were with him.
(b) We know that thou are sent from God to
teach us.
(c) But he in whom some part of the
excellency of God appeareth. And if
Nicodemus had known Christ aright, he
would not only have said that God was
with him, but in him; as Paul doeth in
2 Corinthians 1:19 .
3 (2) Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verily, verily I say unto thee, except a man
be born again, he cannot (d) (*) see the
(e) () kingdom of God.
(2) The beginning of Christianity consisteth
in this, that we know ourselves not only to be
corrupt in part, but to be wholly dead in sin;
so that our nature hath need to be created a
new, as touching the qualities thereof; which
can be done by no other virtue, but by the
divine and heavenly, whereby which we
were first created.
(d) That is, go in, or enter, as he expounded
himself afterward,
John 3:5 .
(*) To enter therein.
(e) The Church; for Christ sheweth in this
place, how we come to be citizens, and to
have ought to do in the city of God.
() Which thing is to be assembled and
incorporated into the Church of God.
4 Nicodemus said unto him, How (f) can a
man be born which is old?
Can he enter into his mother's womb again,
and be born?
(f) How can I that am old, be born again?
For he answereth, as if Christ his words
belonged to none but to him.
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily I say unto
thee, except that a man be born of (*) water
and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the
kingdom of God.
(*) Which is the spiritual water where the
holy Ghost doeth wash us into newness of
life.
6 That which is born of the flesh, is (g) flesh,
and that which is born of the Spirit, is spirit.
(g) That is, fleshly, to wit, wholly unclean
and under the wrath of God; and therefore this
word (Flesh) signifieth the corrupt nature of
man; contrary to which is the Spirit, that is,
the man engrafted into Christ through the grace
of the holy Ghost, whose nature is everlasting
and immortal, though the strife of the flesh
remaineth.
7 Marvel not that I said to thee, Ye must be
born again.
8 The (*) wind bloweth where it (h) listeth,
and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst
not tell whence it cometh, and whither it
goeth; so is every man that is born of the
Spirit.
(*) As the power of God is manifest by the
moving of the air, so is it in changing and
renewing us, although the manner be hid
from us.
(h) With free and wandering blasts, as it
listeth.
9 (3) Nicodemus answered, and said unto
him, How can these things be?
(3) The secret mystery of our regeneration
which cannot be comprehended by man's
capacity, is perceived by faith, and that in
Christ only, because that he is both God on
earth, and man in heaven, that is to say, in
such sort man, that he is God also, and
therefore almighty; and in such sort God,
that he is man also, and therefore his power
is manifest unto us.
10 Jesus answered, and said unto him, Art
thou a teacher of Israel, and (*) knowest not
these things?
(*) Although he was excellently learned, yet
knew he not those things which the very
babes in Christ's school ought to know.
11 Verily, verily I say unto thee, we speak
that we (*) know, and testify that we have
seen, but ye () receive not our (i) witness.
(*) We may not teach our own inventions.
() He reproveth him, for that men do teach
things which they understand not, and yet
others believe them; but Christ teacheth
things most certain and known, and men will
not receive his doctrine.
(i) You handle doubtful things, and such as
you have no certain author for, and yet men
believe you; but I teach those things that are
of a truth and well known, and you believe
me not.
12 If when I tell you (*) earthly things, ye
believe not, how should ye believe, if I shall
tell you of heavenly things?
(*) Which was after a common and gross
manner.
13 For no (k) man (l) ascendeth up to heaven,
but he that hath descended from heaven,
(m) the Son of man which (n) is in (*) heaven.
(k) Only Christ can teach us heavenly things
for no man ascendeth, etc.
(l) That is, hath any spiritual light and
understanding, or ever had, but only that
Son of God, which came down to us.
(m) Whereas he is said to have come down
from heaven, that must be understood of his
Godhead, and of the manner of his
conception; for Christ his birth upon the
earth was heavenly, and not earthly, for he
was conceived by the holy Ghost.
(n) That which is proper to the divinity of
Christ, is here spoken of whole Christ, to
give us to understand that he is but one
person, wherein two natures are united,
and this kind of speech men call, the
communicating of proprieties.
(*) By reason of the union of his Godhead
with his manhood.
14 (*) And as Moses lifted up the serpent in
the wilderness, so must that Son of man be
() lifted up,
(*) Numbers 21:9; John 12:32 .
() His power must be manifest, which is not
yet known.
15 That whosoever believeth in him, should
not perish, but have eternal life.
16 (*) (5) For God so loved the world, that
he hath given his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth (o) in him, should not
perish, but have everlasting life.
(*) 1 John 4:9 .
(5) Nothing else but the free love of the
Father, is the beginning of our salvation, and
Christ is he in whom our righteousness and
salvation is resident; and faith is the
instrument of mean whereby we apprehend
it, and life everlasting is that which is set
before us to apprehend.
(o) It is not all one to believe in a thing, and
to believe of a thing, for we may not believe
(in anything) save only in God, but we may
believe (of anything) whatsoever, this saith
Nazianzene in his oration of the Spirit.
17 (*) (6) For God sent not his Son into the
world, that he should (p) () condemn the
world, but that the (q) () world through him
might be saved.
(*) John 9:39; John 12:47 .
(6) Not Christ, but the despising of Christ
doeth condemn.
(p) That is, to be the cause of the
condemning of the world, for indeed sins are
the cause of death, but Christ shall judge the
quick and the dead.
() The concept of Christ, and the sins of the
wicked condemn them; yet Christ as a just
judge giveth sentence against the reprobate.
(q) Not only the people of the Jews, but
whosoever shall believe in him.
() Not only the Jews, but whosoever should
believe in him.
18 He that believeth in him, is not
condemned; but he that believeth not, is
condemned already, because he hath not
believed in the Name of that only begotten
Son of God.
19 (*) (7) And this is the
(r) () condemnation, that light is come into
the world, and men loved darkness rather
than light, because their deeds were evil.
(*) John 1:9 .
(7) Only wickedness is the cause, why men
refuse the light that is offered them.
(r) That is, the cause of condemnation,
which sticketh fast in men, unless through
God his great benefit they be delivered from
it.
() The cause and matter of condemnation.
20 For every man that evil doeth, hateth the
light, neither cometh to light, lest his deeds
should be reproved.
21 But he that (s) doeth (*) truth, cometh to
the light, that his deeds might be made
manifest, that they are wrought
(t) () () according to God.
(s) That is, he that leadeth an honest life,
and void of all craft and deceit.
(*) In walking roundly and sincerely.
(t) That is, with God, God as it were going
before.
() Or, in God.
() As they do which set God only before
their eye and follow the rule of his word.
22 ¶ After these things came Jesus, and his
disciples into the () land of Judea, and there
tarried with them, and (*) baptized.
() Or, territory.
(*) John 4:1 .
23 And John also baptized in Aenon besides
Salim, because there was much water there;
and they came and were baptized.
24 For John was not yet cast into prison.
25 (8) Then there arose a question between
John's disciples and the Jews, about
(*) purifying.
(8) Satan inflameth the disciples of John
with a fond emulation of their master, to
hinder the course of the Gospel; but John
being mindful of his office, doeth not only
break off their endeavors, but also taketh
occasion thereby to give testimony of Christ,
how that in him only the Father hath set forth
life everlasting.
(*) That is, how they might be made clean,
before God, which the washings under the
Law did represent.
26 And they came unto John, and said unto
him, Rabbi, () he that was with thee beyond
Jordan, to whom (*) thou barest witness,
behold, he baptizeth, and all men come to him.
() They were led with ambition fearing lest
their master should have lost his fame.
(*) John 2:24 .
27 John answered, and said, A man (u) can
receive nothing, except it be given him from
heaven.
(u) What mean you to go about to better my
state?
This is every man's lot and portion that they
cannot better themselves one jot.
28 Ye yourselves are my witnesses, that
(*) I said, () I am not that Christ, but that
I am sent before him.
(*) John 1:20 .
() No man ought to usurp anything further
than God giveth him.
29 He that hath the bride, is the bridegroom;

The Geneva Bible
New Testament ,
The Holy Gospel Of Jesus Christ,
According To John Chapter 3
1 Christ teacheth Nicodemus
the very principles of Christian regeneration.
14 The serpent in the wilderness.
23 John baptizeth,
27 and teacheth his, that he is not Christ.
1 There (1) was now a man of the Pharisees,
named Nicodemus, a (a) ruler of the Jews.
(1) There are none sometimes more unlearned,
than the learned, but as well the learned as the
unlearned must desire wisdom of Christ only.
(a) A man of great estimation, and a ruler
amongst the Jews.
2 This man came to Jesus by night, and said
unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a
(b) teacher come from God, for no man could
do these miracles that thou doest, (c) except
God were with him.
(b) We know that thou are sent from God to
teach us.
(c) But he in whom some part of the
excellency of God appeareth. And if
Nicodemus had known Christ aright, he
would not only have said that God was
with him, but in him; as Paul doeth in
2 Corinthians 1:19 .
3 (2) Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verily, verily I say unto thee, except a man
be born again, he cannot (d) (*) see the
(e) () kingdom of God.
(2) The beginning of Christianity consisteth
in this, that we know ourselves not only to be
corrupt in part, but to be wholly dead in sin;
so that our nature hath need to be created a
new, as touching the qualities thereof; which
can be done by no other virtue, but by the
divine and heavenly, whereby which we
were first created.
(d) That is, go in, or enter, as he expounded
himself afterward,
John 3:5 .
(*) To enter therein.
(e) The Church; for Christ sheweth in this
place, how we come to be citizens, and to
have ought to do in the city of God.
() Which thing is to be assembled and
incorporated into the Church of God.
4 Nicodemus said unto him, How (f) can a
man be born which is old?
Can he enter into his mother's womb again,
and be born?
(f) How can I that am old, be born again?
For he answereth, as if Christ his words
belonged to none but to him.
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily I say unto
thee, except that a man be born of (*) water
and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the
kingdom of God.
(*) Which is the spiritual water where the
holy Ghost doeth wash us into newness of
life.
6 That which is born of the flesh, is (g) flesh,
and that which is born of the Spirit, is spirit.
(g) That is, fleshly, to wit, wholly unclean
and under the wrath of God; and therefore this
word (Flesh) signifieth the corrupt nature of
man; contrary to which is the Spirit, that is,
the man engrafted into Christ through the grace
of the holy Ghost, whose nature is everlasting
and immortal, though the strife of the flesh
remaineth.
7 Marvel not that I said to thee, Ye must be
born again.
8 The (*) wind bloweth where it (h) listeth,
and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst
not tell whence it cometh, and whither it
goeth; so is every man that is born of the
Spirit.
(*) As the power of God is manifest by the
moving of the air, so is it in changing and
renewing us, although the manner be hid
from us.
(h) With free and wandering blasts, as it
listeth.
9 (3) Nicodemus answered, and said unto
him, How can these things be?
(3) The secret mystery of our regeneration
which cannot be comprehended by man's
capacity, is perceived by faith, and that in
Christ only, because that he is both God on
earth, and man in heaven, that is to say, in
such sort man, that he is God also, and
therefore almighty; and in such sort God,
that he is man also, and therefore his power
is manifest unto us.
10 Jesus answered, and said unto him, Art
thou a teacher of Israel, and (*) knowest not
these things?
(*) Although he was excellently learned, yet
knew he not those things which the very
babes in Christ's school ought to know.
11 Verily, verily I say unto thee, we speak
that we (*) know, and testify that we have
seen, but ye () receive not our (i) witness.
(*) We may not teach our own inventions.
() He reproveth him, for that men do teach
things which they understand not, and yet
others believe them; but Christ teacheth
things most certain and known, and men will
not receive his doctrine.
(i) You handle doubtful things, and such as
you have no certain author for, and yet men
believe you; but I teach those things that are
of a truth and well known, and you believe
me not.
12 If when I tell you (*) earthly things, ye
believe not, how should ye believe, if I shall
tell you of heavenly things?
(*) Which was after a common and gross
manner.
13 For no (k) man (l) ascendeth up to heaven,
but he that hath descended from heaven,
(m) the Son of man which (n) is in (*) heaven.
(k) Only Christ can teach us heavenly things
for no man ascendeth, etc.
(l) That is, hath any spiritual light and
understanding, or ever had, but only that
Son of God, which came down to us.
(m) Whereas he is said to have come down
from heaven, that must be understood of his
Godhead, and of the manner of his
conception; for Christ his birth upon the
earth was heavenly, and not earthly, for he
was conceived by the holy Ghost.
(n) That which is proper to the divinity of
Christ, is here spoken of whole Christ, to
give us to understand that he is but one
person, wherein two natures are united,
and this kind of speech men call, the
communicating of proprieties.
(*) By reason of the union of his Godhead
with his manhood.
14 (*) And as Moses lifted up the serpent in
the wilderness, so must that Son of man be
() lifted up,
(*) Numbers 21:9; John 12:32 .
() His power must be manifest, which is not
yet known.
15 That whosoever believeth in him, should
not perish, but have eternal life.
16 (*) (5) For God so loved the world, that
he hath given his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth (o) in him, should not
perish, but have everlasting life.
(*) 1 John 4:9 .
(5) Nothing else but the free love of the
Father, is the beginning of our salvation, and
Christ is he in whom our righteousness and
salvation is resident; and faith is the
instrument of mean whereby we apprehend
it, and life everlasting is that which is set
before us to apprehend.
(o) It is not all one to believe in a thing, and
to believe of a thing, for we may not believe
(in anything) save only in God, but we may
believe (of anything) whatsoever, this saith
Nazianzene in his oration of the Spirit.
17 (*) (6) For God sent not his Son into the
world, that he should (p) () condemn the
world, but that the (q) () world through him
might be saved.
(*) John 9:39; John 12:47 .
(6) Not Christ, but the despising of Christ
doeth condemn.
(p) That is, to be the cause of the
condemning of the world, for indeed sins are
the cause of death, but Christ shall judge the
quick and the dead.
() The concept of Christ, and the sins of the
wicked condemn them; yet Christ as a just
judge giveth sentence against the reprobate.
(q) Not only the people of the Jews, but
whosoever shall believe in him.
() Not only the Jews, but whosoever should
believe in him.
18 He that believeth in him, is not
condemned; but he that believeth not, is
condemned already, because he hath not
believed in the Name of that only begotten
Son of God.
19 (*) (7) And this is the
(r) () condemnation, that light is come into
the world, and men loved darkness rather
than light, because their deeds were evil.
(*) John 1:9 .
(7) Only wickedness is the cause, why men
refuse the light that is offered them.
(r) That is, the cause of condemnation,
which sticketh fast in men, unless through
God his great benefit they be delivered from
it.
() The cause and matter of condemnation.
20 For every man that evil doeth, hateth the
light, neither cometh to light, lest his deeds
should be reproved.
21 But he that (s) doeth (*) truth, cometh to
the light, that his deeds might be made
manifest, that they are wrought
(t) () () according to God.
(s) That is, he that leadeth an honest life,
and void of all craft and deceit.
(*) In walking roundly and sincerely.
(t) That is, with God, God as it were going
before.
() Or, in God.
() As they do which set God only before
their eye and follow the rule of his word.
22 ¶ After these things came Jesus, and his
disciples into the () land of Judea, and there
tarried with them, and (*) baptized.
() Or, territory.
(*) John 4:1 .
23 And John also baptized in Aenon besides
Salim, because there was much water there;
and they came and were baptized.
24 For John was not yet cast into prison.
25 (8) Then there arose a question between
John's disciples and the Jews, about
(*) purifying.
(8) Satan inflameth the disciples of John
with a fond emulation of their master, to
hinder the course of the Gospel; but John
being mindful of his office, doeth not only
break off their endeavors, but also taketh
occasion thereby to give testimony of Christ,
how that in him only the Father hath set forth
life everlasting.
(*) That is, how they might be made clean,
before God, which the washings under the
Law did represent.
26 And they came unto John, and said unto
him, Rabbi, () he that was with thee beyond
Jordan, to whom (*) thou barest witness,
behold, he baptizeth, and all men come to him.
() They were led with ambition fearing lest
their master should have lost his fame.
(*) John 2:24 .
27 John answered, and said, A man (u) can
receive nothing, except it be given him from
heaven.
(u) What mean you to go about to better my
state?
This is every man's lot and portion that they
cannot better themselves one jot.
28 Ye yourselves are my witnesses, that
(*) I said, () I am not that Christ, but that
I am sent before him.
(*) John 1:20 .
() No man ought to usurp anything further
than God giveth him.
29 He that hath the bride, is the bridegroom;
but the friend of the bridegroom which
standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly,
because of the bridegroom's voice.
This my joy therefore is fulfilled.
30 He must (*) increase, but I must decrease.
(*) And be exalted, and I esteemed as his
servant.
31 He that is come from on high, is above all,
he that is of the (*) earth, is of the (x) earth,
and (y) speaketh of the earth; he that is come
from heaven, is above all.
(*) The minister compared to Christ is but
earth.
(x) Is nothing else but man, a piece of work
and of the slime of the earth.
(y) Savoreth of nothing but corruption,
ignorance, dullness, etc.
32 And what he hath (z) seen and heard,
that he testifieth; but (a) no man receiveth
his testimony.
(z) What he knoweth fully and perfectly.
(a) That is, very few.
33 He that hath received his testimony,
hath sealed that (*) God is true.
(*) Romans 3:4 .
34 For he whom God hath sent, speaketh
the words of God; for God giveth him not
the Spirit by (*) measure.
(*) For unto Christ was given the full
abundance of all grace, that we might
receive of him as of the only fountain.
35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath
(*) (b) given all things into his hand.
(*) Matthew 11:27 .
(b) Committed them to his power and will.
36 (*) He that believeth in the Son, hath
everlasting life, and he that obeyeth not the
Son, shall not (c) see life, but the wrath of
God abideth on him.

Christ Is The Searcher of Minds and Truly God
From :
The Geneva Bible
New Testament ,
The Holy Gospel Of Jesus Christ,
According To John Chapter 2 ;
1 Christ turneth water into Wine,
11 which was the beginning of his miracles.
12 He goeth down to Capernaum;
13 from thence he goeth up to Jerusalem,
15 and casteth the merchandise out of the
Temple.
19 He foretelleth that the Temple, that is,
his body, shall be destroyed of the Jews.
23 Many believe in him, seeing the miracles
which he did.
1 And (1) the (a) third day, was there a
marriage in Cana a town of Galilee,
and the mother of Jesus was there.
(1) Christ declaring openly in an assembly
by a notable miracle, that he hath power over
the nature of things, to feed man's body,
leadeth the minds of all men, to his spiritual
and saving virtue and power.
(a) After the talk which he had with
Nathanael, or after that he departed from John,
or after that he came into Galilee.
2 And Jesus was called also, and his disciples
unto the marriage.
3 (2) Now when the wine failed, the mother
of Jesus said unto him, They have no wine.
(2) Christ is careful enough of our salvation,
and therefore hath no need of others to put him
in mind of it.
4 Jesus said unto her, Woman, what have I to
do with thee? Mine (b) hour is not yet come.
(b) Mine appointed time.
5 His mother said unto the servants,
Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
6 And there were set there, six (c) waterpots
of stone, after the manner of the (*) purifying
of the Jews, containing two or three
(d) () () firkins a piece.
(c) These were vessels appointed for water,
wherein they washed themselves.
(*) Who used continual washings to purify
themselves, Which superstition Hebion the
heretic would have brought into the Church and
now the Papists have received it.
(d) Every firkin contained a hundred pounds,
at twelve ounces the pound; Whereby we
gather that Christ help them with a thousand
and eight hundred pounds of wine.
() Or, measures.
() Whereof every one contained 15 gallons.
7 And Jesus said unto them, Fill the waterpots
with water. Then they filled them up to the
brim.
8 Then he said unto them, Draw out now, and
bear unto the (*) governor of the feast. So they
bare it.
(*) Or, steward.
9 Now when the governor of the feast had
tasted the water that was made wine,
(for he knew not whence it was, but the
servants, which drew the water, knew)
the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
10 And said unto him, All men at the beginning
set forth good wine, and when men have (e) well
drunk, then that which is worse; but thou hast
kept back the good wine until now.
(e) Word for word, are drunken. Now this
speech, to be drunken, is not always taken in
evil part in the Hebrew tongue, but signifieth
sometime such store, and plentiful use of wine,
as doth not pass measure, as
Genesis 43:34 .
11 This beginning of (*) miracles did Jesus in
Cana a town of Galilee, and shewed forth his
glory, and his disciples believed on him.
(*) Or, signs.
12 After that, he went down into Capernaum,
he and his mother, and his (f) (*) brethren, and
his disciples; but they continued not many days
there.
(f) That is, his cousins.
(*) Or, cousins.
13 (3) For the Jews' Passover was at hand.
Therefore Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
(3) Christ being made subject to the Law for
us, satisfieth the Law of the Passover.
14 (4) (*) And he found in the Temple those
that sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and
changers of money, sitting there.
(4) Christ being ordained to purge the Church,
doeth with great zeal begin his office both of
Priest and Prophet.
(*) Matthew 21:12; Mark 11:17; Luke 19:46 .
15 Then he made a scourge of small cords, and
drave them all out of the Temple with the sheep
and oxen, and poured out the changers' money,
and overthrew their tables,
16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take
these things hence; make not my father's house,
a house of merchandise.
17 And his disciples remembered, that it was
written, (*) The (g) () zeal of thine house hath
eaten me up.
(*) Psalm 69:9 .
(g) Zeal in this place is taken for a wrathful
indignation and displeasure of the mind,
conceived of some naughty and evil dealing
towards them whom we love well.
() This affection was so burning in him, that it
surmounted and swallowed up all the others.
18 (5) Then answered the Jews, and said unto
him, What (h) (*) sign shewest thou unto us,
that thou doest these things?
(5) Against them which so bind God to an
ordinary calling which they themselves most
shamefully abuse, that they will not admit an
extraordinary, which God confirmeth from
heaven,
(and they although in vain would have it
extinguished)
unless it be sealed with outward and bodily
miracles.
(h) With what miracle doest thou confirm it,
that we may see that heavenly power and virtue,
which giveth thee authority to speak and do
thus?
(*) Or, miracle.
19 Jesus answered and said unto them,
(*) Destroy this Temple, and in three days
I will raise it up again.
(*) Matthew 26:61; Matthew 27:40;
Mark 14:58; Mark 15:29 .
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was
this Temple a building, and wilt thou rear it up
in three days?
21 But he spake of the (i) temple of his
(*) body.
(i) That is, of his body.
(*) Christ's body might justly be called the
temple, because the fullness of the Godhead
dwelleth in it corporally,
Colossians 2:9 .
22 As soon therefore as he was risen from the
dead, his disciples remembered that he thus
said unto them; and they believed the Scripture,
and the word which Jesus had said.
23 Now when he was at Jerusalem at the
Passover in the feast, many believed in his Name,
when they saw his miracles which he did.
24 (6) But Jesus (*) did not commit himself
unto them, because he knew them all,
(6) It is not good crediting them, which stand
only upon miracles.
(*) For he took not them for true disciples, as
he knew by their inward thoughts, what religion
forever they did pretend outwardly.
25 (7) And had no need that any should testify
of man, for he knew what was in man.
(7) Christ is the searcher of hearts, and
therefore true God.

marriage in Cana a town of Galilee,
and the mother of Jesus was there.
(1) Christ declaring openly in an assembly
by a notable miracle, that he hath power over
the nature of things, to feed man's body,
leadeth the minds of all men, to his spiritual
and saving virtue and power.
(a) After the talk which he had with
Nathanael, or after that he departed from John,
or after that he came into Galilee.
2 And Jesus was called also, and his disciples
unto the marriage.
3 (2) Now when the wine failed, the mother
of Jesus said unto him, They have no wine.
(2) Christ is careful enough of our salvation,
and therefore hath no need of others to put him
in mind of it.
4 Jesus said unto her, Woman, what have I to
do with thee? Mine (b) hour is not yet come.
(b) Mine appointed time.
5 His mother said unto the servants,
Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
6 And there were set there, six (c) waterpots
of stone, after the manner of the (*) purifying
of the Jews, containing two or three
(d) () () firkins a piece.
(c) These were vessels appointed for water,
wherein they washed themselves.
(*) Who used continual washings to purify
themselves, Which superstition Hebion the
heretic would have brought into the Church and
now the Papists have received it.
(d) Every firkin contained a hundred pounds,
at twelve ounces the pound; Whereby we
gather that Christ help them with a thousand
and eight hundred pounds of wine.
() Or, measures.
() Whereof every one contained 15 gallons.
7 And Jesus said unto them, Fill the waterpots
with water. Then they filled them up to the
brim.
8 Then he said unto them, Draw out now, and
bear unto the (*) governor of the feast. So they
bare it.
(*) Or, steward.
9 Now when the governor of the feast had
tasted the water that was made wine,
(for he knew not whence it was, but the
servants, which drew the water, knew)
the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
10 And said unto him, All men at the beginning
set forth good wine, and when men have (e) well
drunk, then that which is worse; but thou hast
kept back the good wine until now.
(e) Word for word, are drunken. Now this
speech, to be drunken, is not always taken in
evil part in the Hebrew tongue, but signifieth
sometime such store, and plentiful use of wine,
as doth not pass measure, as
Genesis 43:34 .
11 This beginning of (*) miracles did Jesus in
Cana a town of Galilee, and shewed forth his
glory, and his disciples believed on him.
(*) Or, signs.
12 After that, he went down into Capernaum,
he and his mother, and his (f) (*) brethren, and
his disciples; but they continued not many days
there.
(f) That is, his cousins.
(*) Or, cousins.
13 (3) For the Jews' Passover was at hand.
Therefore Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
(3) Christ being made subject to the Law for
us, satisfieth the Law of the Passover.
14 (4) (*) And he found in the Temple those
that sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and
changers of money, sitting there.
(4) Christ being ordained to purge the Church,
doeth with great zeal begin his office both of
Priest and Prophet.
(*) Matthew 21:12; Mark 11:17; Luke 19:46 .
15 Then he made a scourge of small cords, and
drave them all out of the Temple with the sheep
and oxen, and poured out the changers' money,
and overthrew their tables,
16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take
these things hence; make not my father's house,
a house of merchandise.
17 And his disciples remembered, that it was
written, (*) The (g) () zeal of thine house hath
eaten me up.
(*) Psalm 69:9 .
(g) Zeal in this place is taken for a wrathful
indignation and displeasure of the mind,
conceived of some naughty and evil dealing
towards them whom we love well.
() This affection was so burning in him, that it
surmounted and swallowed up all the others.
18 (5) Then answered the Jews, and said unto
him, What (h) (*) sign shewest thou unto us,
that thou doest these things?
(5) Against them which so bind God to an
ordinary calling which they themselves most
shamefully abuse, that they will not admit an
extraordinary, which God confirmeth from
heaven,
(and they although in vain would have it
extinguished)
unless it be sealed with outward and bodily
miracles.
(h) With what miracle doest thou confirm it,
that we may see that heavenly power and virtue,
which giveth thee authority to speak and do
thus?
(*) Or, miracle.
19 Jesus answered and said unto them,
(*) Destroy this Temple, and in three days
I will raise it up again.
(*) Matthew 26:61; Matthew 27:40;
Mark 14:58; Mark 15:29 .
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was
this Temple a building, and wilt thou rear it up
in three days?
21 But he spake of the (i) temple of his
(*) body.
(i) That is, of his body.
(*) Christ's body might justly be called the
temple, because the fullness of the Godhead
dwelleth in it corporally,
Colossians 2:9 .
22 As soon therefore as he was risen from the
dead, his disciples remembered that he thus
said unto them; and they believed the Scripture,
and the word which Jesus had said.
23 Now when he was at Jerusalem at the
Passover in the feast, many believed in his Name,
when they saw his miracles which he did.
24 (6) But Jesus (*) did not commit himself
unto them, because he knew them all,
(6) It is not good crediting them, which stand
only upon miracles.
(*) For he took not them for true disciples, as
he knew by their inward thoughts, what religion
forever they did pretend outwardly.
25 (7) And had no need that any should testify
of man, for he knew what was in man.
(7) Christ is the searcher of hearts, and
therefore true God.

The American public should know
the functions and delegated authority
of federal agencies
because it is charged
with the knowledge of the scope
and limitations upon the authority
of federal agents,
who can only act within the scope
of such authority :

Sovereignty, itself, is, of course,
not subject to law, for it is the author
and source of law; but in our system,
while sovereign powers are delegated
to the agencies of government,
sovereignty itself remains
with the people, by whom
and for whom all government exists

The rights of the individuals

The government use of all caps
in place of proper names is absolutely
no mistake.
It signifies an internal ("legal") rule
and authority.
Its foundation is pure artifice
and the results have compounded
into more deceit in the form of created,
promulgated, instituted, administered,
and enforced rules, codes, statutes,
and policy - i.e.
The laws that appear to be but are not,
never were, and never can be :

The "United States" is sometimes
deceptively referred to as
"United States of America."
This term refers to a corporation
used by the government
for commercial purposes.
This corporation has no included
body politic of the people

This corporate form,
"United States of America"

NATIONAL EMERGENCY:
(as defined in Black's Law Dictionary)
A state of national crisis;
a situation demanding immediate
and extraordinary national
or federal action.
Congress has made little
or no distinction between
a "state of national emergency"
and a State Of War :
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wtpcc/message/2990
The National Emergency
In The United States Of America :
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wtpcc/message/2993
"These agencies,
of which there are now thousands,
and which now control every aspect
of our lives, were ostensibly created
as temporary agencies meant to last
only as long as the national emergency.
They have become, in fact,
permanent agencies,
as has the state of
national emergency itself.
As Franklin Delano Roosevelt said:
We will never go back to the old order :

is not an official record
of the Government of the United States
according
to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure,
Rule 44 and 28 U.S.C. § 1733.
As stated on the face of the instrument,
it is only a "Notice," and not a "levy"
which warrants surrender of property :

are not aware

One is the federal government,
the United States.

Across the country, thousands
of employees are lawfully filing exempt
or claiming extra allowances
on the W-4 withholding certificate,
thereby depriving
the Treasury Department
of both interest-free use of money
not owed and effective control
of a portion of a citizens freedom :
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wtpcc/message/3031
As you can see, by negating wages
as income, only profit or gain
need to be considered,
making most persons
ineligible for filing.
There is no willful act, no omission,
no intent, and no income ...
hence no case for the prosecution,
and even if confronted by an angry jury,
by relying on the U.S. Supreme Court
decisions,
YOU MUST BE ACQUITTED
AS A MATTER OF LAW.
If you are not acquitted, your lawyer
will for a Judgment not withstanding
the verdict, and/or appeal,
from which you will, be eventually
found not guilty :
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wtpcc/message/3032
The citizens are continuously assured
by courthouse edifices, by government
press releases, and by judges
that the rule of law is providing justice
and the public's constitutional rights
are being protected.
Is it possible this conclusion
might be erroneous?
Allow me to string
some legal points together
so you can make your own judgment :

No court has a right to imprison
a citizen (or to remove civil rights)
who has violated no law.
Such restraint, even if exercised

not clothed with authority :

Corporate "laws" are not laws of the people

CHAPTER 62,
1871
16 United States Statutes at Large 419
FORTY FIRST CONGRESS SESSION III.
CHAPTER 62,
1871
CHAP. LXII. --
The government of the District
(the Federal Government) is a corporation,
municipal in nature but still a corporation.
Furthermore, District citizens
(United States citizens - U. S. citizens)
will now be subject to corporation law as
well as law of the Republic.
Corporate law is private law even though
the corporation is municipal.
Generally we are led to believe that these
corporate laws are laws of the people because
they have come from Congress... they are not,

LIMITS OF CONGRESSIONAL POWERS
Police power is a power originally and always
belonging to the states, not surrendered to them
by the general government, nor directly
restrained by the constitution of the United States,
and essentially exclusive.
It may be considered as having been
authoritatively settled that the national
government cannot exercise police powers for
the protection of the inhabitants of a state.
The police power under the American
constitutional system has been left to the
states.
It has always belonged to them and was not
surrendered by them to the general government,
nor directly restrained by the constitution of the
United States... Congress has no general power
to enact police regulations operative within the
territorial limits of a state.
The Federal Government has no general police
power and that of the states is beyond the reach
of Congress, except in rare cases where the
people in whom it inheres have released it by the
terms of the Federal Constitution.
The 14th Amendment does not empower
Congress to legislate on matters within the
domain of the states' powers, nor to legislate
against the wrongs and personal actions of
individuals within the state nor to regulate and
control the conduct of private individuals,

CHAP. LXII. --
The government of the District
(the Federal Government) is a corporation,
municipal in nature but still a corporation.
Furthermore, District citizens
(United States citizens - U. S. citizens)
will now be subject to corporation law as
well as law of the Republic.
Corporate law is private law even though
the corporation is municipal.
Generally we are led to believe that these
corporate laws are laws of the people because
they have come from Congress... they are not,
they are private laws and can only be applied
by contract.

The true knowledge of God proceeds only from Jesus Christ
From :
The Geneva Bible New Testament
& The Holy Gospel Of Jesus Christ,
According To John Chapter 1 ;
1 That Word
begotten of God before all worlds.
2 Which was ever with the Father.
14 Is made man,
6-7 For what end John was sent from God.
16 His preaching of Christ's office.
19 The record that he bare
given out unto the Priests.
40 The calling of Andrew,
42 of Peter,
43 Philip,
45 and Nathanael.
1 In (1) (*) the (a) beginning (b) was (c) that
Word, and the Word was (d) with () God, and
the (e) Word was God.
(1) The Son of God is of one, and the selfsame
eternity or everlastingness, and of one and the
selfsame essence or nature, with the Father.
(*) Or, before the beginning.
(a) From his beginning, as the Evangelist saith
in 1 John 1:1; as though he said, that the world
began not than to have his being, when God
began to make all that was made; for the word
was even then when all things that were made,
began to be made, and therefore he was before
the beginning of all things.
(b) Had his being.
(c) This word, (That) pointeth out unto us a
peculiar and choice thing above all others, and
putteth a difference between this Word, which
is the Son of God, and the Laws of God, which
otherwise also are called the word of God.
(d) This word (With) putteth out the
distinction of persons to us.
() Christ is God before all time.
(e) This word (Word) is the first in order in
the sentence, and is that which the learned call
(Subjectum) and this word (God) is the latter
in order, and the same which the learned call
(Predicatum.)
2 This same was (*) in the beginning with God.
(*) The Son is of the same substance with the
Father.
3 (*) (2) All (f) things were made by it,
and (g) () without it (h) was made nothing
that was made.
(*) Colossians 1:16 .
(2) The son of God declareth that same his
everlasting Godhead, both by the creating of all
things, and also by the preserving of them, and
especially by the excellent gifts of reason and
understanding, wherewith he that beautified
man above all other creatures.
(f) Paul expoundeth this place, in
Colossians 1:15-16 .
(g) That is, as the Father did work, so did the
Son work with him; for he was fellow worker
with him.
() No creature was made without Christ.
(h) Of all those things which were made,
nothing was made without him.
4 (i) In it (k) was (*) life, and the life was
(l) the () light of men.
(i) That is, by him; and it is spoken after the
manner of the Hebrews, meaning thereby that
by his force and working power all life cometh
to the world.
(k) To wit, even then, when all things are made
by him, for else he would have said, Life is in
him, and not life was.
(*) Whereby all things are quickened
and preserved.
(l) That force of reason and understanding,
which is kindled in our minds, to knowledge
him, the author of so great a benefit.
() The life of man is more excellent than of any
other creature, because it is joined with light
and understanding.
5 (3) And that light shineth in (*) the darkness,
and the darkness (m) comprehended it not.
(3) The light of men is turned into darkness, but
yet so that there is clearness enough to make
them without excuse.
(*) Man's mind is full of darkness because of
the corruption thereof.
(m) They could not perceive nor reach unto it, to
receive any light of it, no, they did not so much
as acknowledge him.
6 ¶ (*) (4) There was a man sent from God,
whose name was John.
(*) Matthew 3:1; Mark 1:4; Luke 3:2 .
(4) There is another more full manifestation of
the Son of God, to the consideration whereof
men are in good time stirred up, even by John's
voice, who is as it were the herald of Christ.
7 This same came for a witness, to bear witness
of the light, that all men (n) through him might
believe.
(n) Through John.
8 He was not (o) the light, but was sent to bear
witness of the light.
(o) That light which we spake of, to wit, Christ,
who only can lighten our darkness.
9 (5) This was (p) the true light, which lighteth
every man that (*) cometh into the world.
(5) When as the Son of God saw, that
men did not acknowledge him by his works,
although they were endued with understanding
(which he had given to them all) he exhibited
himself unto his people to be seen of them with
their corporal eyes; yet neither so did they
acknowledge him, nor receive him.
(p) Who only and properly deserveth to be called
the light, for he shineth of himself and borroweth
light of none.
(*) Or, are born.
10 (q) He was in the world, and the world was
(*) made by him, and the world () knew him not.
(q) The person of the Word, was made manifest
even at that time when the world was made.
(*) Hebrews 11:3 .
() Because they did not worship him as their
God, Romans 1:21; Acts 14:15 .
11 He came (r) unto (*) his own, and his own
received him not.
(r) The Word shewed himself again, when he
came in the flesh.
(*) To the Israelites who were his peculiar
people.
12 (6) But as many as received him, to them he
gave (s) (*) prerogative to be the sons of God,
even to them that believe in his Name.
(6) The Son being shut out by the most of his
people, and acknowledged but of a few, doth
regenerate them by his own virtue and power,
and receiveth them into that honor which is
common to all the children of God, that is
to be the sons of God.
(s) He vouchsafed to give them this prerogative
to take them to be his children.
(*) Meaning privilege, or dignity.
13 Which are born not of blood, nor of the
(t) will of the flesh, nor of the will of man,
but of God.
(t) Of that gross and corrupt nature of man,
which is throughout the Scriptures set as
enemy to the Spirit.
14 (*) (7) And the Word was
made (u) () flesh, and (x) dwelt among us,
(and we (()) saw the (y) glory thereof, (z) as the
glory of the only begotten Son ((())) of the Father)
(a) (((()))) full of grace and truth.
(*) Matthew 1:16 .
(7) That Son, who is God from everlasting,
took upon him man's nature, that one and the
selfsame might be both God and man, which
manifestly appeared to many witnesses, that
saw him amongst whom he was conversant,
and unto whom by sure and undoubted
arguments he shewed both his natures.
(u) That is, man, so that the part is taken
for the whole, by the figure Synecdoche;
for he took upon him all our whole nature,
that is to say, a true body, and a true soul.
() He was formed and made man
by the operation of the holy Ghost
without the operation of man.
(x) For a season,
and when that was ended,
he went up into heaven; for the word
which he useth, is taken from tents, and yet
notwithstanding, his absence from us in body is
not such, but that he is always present with us,
though not in flesh, yet by the virtue of his spirit.
(()) Matthew 17:2; 2 Peter 1:17 .
(y) The glory which he speaketh of here, is that
manifestation of Christ his majesty, which was
as it were laid open before our eyes when the
Son of God appeared in flesh.
(z) This word (as)
doeth not in this place betoken
a likeness, but the truth of the matter, for his
meaning is this, that we saw such a glory, as
beseemed and was meet for the true and only
begotten Son of God, who is Lord and King
over all the world.
((())) Or, proceeding from the Father.
(a) He was not only a partaker of grace
and truth, but was full of the very substance
of grace and truth.
(((()))) Colossians 1:19; Colossians 2:9 .
15 ¶ (8) John bare witness of him, and cried,
saying, This was he of whom I said, He that
cometh (b) after me, is preferred before me,
for he was (c) (*) before me.
(8) John is a faithful witness
of the excellency of Christ.
(b) That is, He before whom I am sent to
prepare him the way, so that these words are
referred to the time of his calling, and not of
his age, for John was six months older than he.
(c) This sentence
hath in it a turning of the reason
as we call it, as who would say, a setting
of that first which should be last, and that last
which should be first, for in plain speech this it
is; He that cometh after me, is better than I am,
for he was before me.
The like kind of turning
the reason we find in Luke 7:47; many sins
are forgiven her, because she loved much,
which is thus much to say, she loved much,
because many sins are forgiven her.
(*) Or, more excellent than I.
16 (*) (9) And of his fullness have all we
received, and (d) () grace for grace.
(*) Colossians 1:19; Colossians 2:9 .
(9) Christ is the most plentiful fountain of all
goodness, but then he poured out his gifts most
bountifully, when as he exhibited and shewed
himself to the world.
(d) That is, grace upon grace, as a man
would say graces heaped one upon another.
() More abundant grace than by Moses.
17 For the Law was given by Moses,
but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
18 (10) (*) No man hath seen God
at any time; the only begotten Son, which
is in the (e) () bosom of the Father, he hath
(f) (()) declared him.
(10) The true knowledge of God
proceedeth only from Jesus Christ.
(*) 1 Timothy 6:16; 1 John 4:12 .
(e) Who is nearest to his Father, not only in
respect of his love towards him, but by the
bond of nature, and for that union or oneness
that is between them, whereby the Father and
the Son are one.
() Meaning he is most dear, and straitly joined to
his Father, not only in love, but also in nature and
union.
(f) Revealed him, and shewed him unto us,
whereas before he was hid under the shadows
of the Law, so that the quickness of the sight
of our minds was not able to perceived him;
for whosoever seeth him, seeth the Father also.
(()) And so God that before was invisible,
was made, as it were, visible in Christ.
19 ¶ (11) Then this is the record of John,
when the Jews sent Priests and Levites from
Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?
(11) John is neither the Messiah, nor like to any
of the other Prophets, but is the herald of Christ,
who is now present.
20 And he (g) confessed and (h) denied not,
and said plainly, I (*) am not the Christ.
(g) He did acknowledge him, and spake
of him plainly and openly.
(h) This rehearsing of one and the selfsame
thing, though in divers words, is used much of
the Hebrews, and it hath great force; for they
used to speak one thing twice, to set it out
more certainly and plainly.
(*) Acts 13:25 .
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou
Elijah? And he said, (i) I am not. Art thou (k)
the (*) Prophet? And he answered, No.
(i) The Jews thought
that Elijah should come
again before the days of the Messiah,
and they took the ground of that their
opinion out of Malachi 4:5; which place
is to be understood of John,
Matthew 11:14 .
And yet John denieth that he is Elijah,
answering them indeed according
as they meant.
(k) They enquire of some great Prophet,
and not of Christ, for John denied before,
that he is Christ, for they thought that some
great Prophet should be sent like unto Moses,
wresting to that purpose that place of
Deuteronomy 18:15; which is to be understood
to all the company of the Prophets and ministers,
which have been and shall be to the end, and
especially of Christ, who is the head
of all Prophets.
(*) Whom they looked for to be such one as
Moses was, Deuteronomy 18:15 .
22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou, that
we may give an answer to them that sent us?
What sayest thou of thyself?
23 He said, I (*) am the voice of him that crieth
in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the
Lord, as said the Prophet Isaiah.
(*) Isaiah 40:3; Matthew 3:3; Luke 3:4 .
24 (12) Now they which were sent,
were of the Pharisees.
(12) Christ is the author of baptism, and not
John; and therefore the force thereof consisteth
not in John, who is the minister, but wholly in
Christ the Lord.
25 And they asked him, and said unto him,
(l) Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not the
Christ, neither Elijah, nor the Prophet?
(l) Hereby we may prove that the Jews knew
there should be some change in religion under
Messiah.
26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with
water, but there is one (m) among you, whom
ye know not.
(m) Whom all the world seeth not, and is even
amongst you.
27 (*) He it is that cometh after me, which is
preferred before me, whose shoe latchet I am
not worthy to unloose.
(*) Matthew 3:11; Mark 1:7; Luke 3:16;
Acts 1:5; Acts 11:16; Acts 19:4 .
28 These things were done in Bethabara
beyond Jordan, where John did baptize.
29 ¶ (13) The next day John seeth Jesus coming
unto him, and saith, Behold (n) that Lamb of God,
which (o) taketh away the (p) (*) sin of the
world.
(13) The body and truth of all the sacrifices of
the Law, to make satisfaction for the sin of the
world, is in Christ.
(n) This word (That) which is added, hath great
force in it, not only to set forth the worthiness of
Christ, and so to separate him from the Lamb
which was a figure of him, and from all other
sacrifices of the Law, but also to bring into
our mind the Prophecies of Isaiah and others.
(o) This word of the present time signifieth
a continual act, for the Lamb hath this virtue
proper unto him, and forever, to take away
the sins of the world.
(p) That is, that root of sins, to wit, our
corruption, and so consequently, the fruits of
sins, which are commonly called in the plural
number sins.
(*) Signifying the original sin, which is the
fountain of all sins and therewith all other sins.
30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh
a man, which is preferred before me, for he was
before me.
31 And (q) I knew (*) him not, but because he
should be declared to Israel, therefore am I
come, baptizing with water.
(q) I never knew him by face before.
(*) That is, by sight, but only by the revelation
of God.
32 (14) So John bare record, saying, I saw (*)
the Spirit come down from heaven, like a dove,
and it abode upon him,
(14) Christ is proved to be
the Son of God, by the coming down of the holy
Ghost, by the Father's voice, and by John's
testimony.
(*) Matthew 3:16; Mark 1:10; Luke 3:22 .
33 And I knew him not,
but he that sent me to baptize with water,
he said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see
the Spirit come down, and tarry still on him,
that is he which baptizeth with the
(*) holy Ghost.
(*) Who giveth the virtue and effect
to baptism, accomplishing that thing
which is thereby represented.
34 And I saw, and bare record
that this is (r) that Son of God.
(r) This word (That) pointeth out
unto us some excellent thing, and
maketh a difference between Christ
and others, whom Moses and the Prophets
commonly call the sons of God, or the sons
of the most high.
35 ¶ (15) The next day, John stood again,
and two of his disciples.
(15) John gathereth disciples,
not to himself, but to Christ.
36 (16) And he beheld Jesus walking by,
and said, Behold the (*) Lamb of God.
(16) Christ is set before us to follow not
as a vain shadow, but as our Mediator.
(*) He alludeth to the Paschal lamb,
which was a figure of Christ.
37 (17) And the two disciples heard him
speak, and followed Jesus.
(17) In this first gathering of the disciples
we have shewed unto us, that the beginning
of salvation is from God, who calleth us unto
his Son by the ministry of his servants; whom
(so preventing us) we must also hear, and follow
him home, that being instructed by him, we may
also instruct others.
38 Then Jesus turned about,
and saw them follow, and said
unto them, What seek ye? And they
said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say
by interpretation, Master) (s) (*) where
dwellest thou?
(s) Where is thy lodging?
(*) Or where is thy lodging? Or whither
goest thou? For he dwelled in Nazareth,
and was there as a stranger.
39 He said unto them, Come, and see. They
came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with
him that day, for it was about the (t) (*) tenth
hour.
(t) The night grew on.
(*) That was, two hours before night.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of
the two which had heard (*) it of John, and that
followed him.
(*) How John said,
that Jesus was the Lamb of God.
41 The same found his brother Simon first, and
said unto him, We have found that Messiah
which is by interpretation, that (u) Christ.
(u) That is, anointed, and King after the manner
of the Jewish people.
42 And he brought him to Jesus. And Jesus
beheld him, and said, Thou art Simon the son
of Jona; thou shalt be called Cephas, which is
by interpretation (*) a stone.
(*) Or, Petrus.
43 ¶ The day following, Jesus would go into
Galilee, and found Philip, and said unto him,
Follow me.
44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of
Andrew and Peter.
45 (18) Philip found Nathanael, and said unto
him, We have found him of whom (*) Moses
did write in the Law, and the () Prophets,
Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
(18) The good endeavors even of the unlearned,
God doeth so allow, that he maketh them masters
to the learned.
(*) Genesis 49:10; Deuteronomy 18:18 .
() Isaiah 40:10, Isaiah 45:8; Jeremiah 23:5;
Jeremiah 33:14; Ezekiel 34:25; Ezekiel 37:24;
Daniel 9:24 .
46 (19) Then Nathanael said unto him, Can there
any (*) good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip
said to him, Come, and see.
(19) We must especially take heed of false
presumptions, which shut up against us the
entrance to Christ.
(*) Those things which are contemptible to the
world, are esteemed and preferred of God; and
those things which the world preferreth, God
abhorreth.
47 (20) Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and
said of him, Behold indeed an Israelite, in whom
is no guile.
(20) Simple uprightness discerneth the true
Israelites from the false.
48 (21) Nathanael said unto him, Whence
knewest thou me? Jesus answered, and said
unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when
thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
(21) The end of miracles is to set before us
Christ the Almighty, and also the only author
of our salvation, that we may apprehend him
by faith.
49 Nathanael answered, and said unto him,
Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the
King of Israel.
50 Jesus answered, and said unto him,
Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under
the fig tree, (*) believest thou? Thou shalt
see greater things than these.
(*) Or, thou believest.
51 And he said unto him, Verily,
verily, I say unto you, Hereafter shall
ye see heaven () open, and the Angels
of God (*) (x) ascending, and descending
upon that Son of man.
() Christ openeth the heavens, that we may
have access to God, and maketh us fellows
to the Angels.
(*) Genesis 28:12 .
(x) By these words, the power of God
is signified which should appear in his
ministry by the angels serving him as
the head of the Church.

and understanding.
5 (3) And that light shineth in (*) the darkness,
and the darkness (m) comprehended it not.
(3) The light of men is turned into darkness, but
yet so that there is clearness enough to make
them without excuse.
(*) Man's mind is full of darkness because of
the corruption thereof.
(m) They could not perceive nor reach unto it, to
receive any light of it, no, they did not so much
as acknowledge him.
6 ¶ (*) (4) There was a man sent from God,
whose name was John.
(*) Matthew 3:1; Mark 1:4; Luke 3:2 .
(4) There is another more full manifestation of
the Son of God, to the consideration whereof
men are in good time stirred up, even by John's
voice, who is as it were the herald of Christ.
7 This same came for a witness, to bear witness
of the light, that all men (n) through him might
believe.
(n) Through John.
8 He was not (o) the light, but was sent to bear
witness of the light.
(o) That light which we spake of, to wit, Christ,
who only can lighten our darkness.
9 (5) This was (p) the true light, which lighteth
every man that (*) cometh into the world.
(5) When as the Son of God saw, that
men did not acknowledge him by his works,
although they were endued with understanding
(which he had given to them all) he exhibited
himself unto his people to be seen of them with
their corporal eyes; yet neither so did they
acknowledge him, nor receive him.
(p) Who only and properly deserveth to be called
the light, for he shineth of himself and borroweth
light of none.
(*) Or, are born.
10 (q) He was in the world, and the world was
(*) made by him, and the world () knew him not.
(q) The person of the Word, was made manifest
even at that time when the world was made.
(*) Hebrews 11:3 .
() Because they did not worship him as their
God, Romans 1:21; Acts 14:15 .
11 He came (r) unto (*) his own, and his own
received him not.
(r) The Word shewed himself again, when he
came in the flesh.
(*) To the Israelites who were his peculiar
people.
12 (6) But as many as received him, to them he
gave (s) (*) prerogative to be the sons of God,
even to them that believe in his Name.
(6) The Son being shut out by the most of his
people, and acknowledged but of a few, doth
regenerate them by his own virtue and power,
and receiveth them into that honor which is
common to all the children of God, that is
to be the sons of God.
(s) He vouchsafed to give them this prerogative
to take them to be his children.
(*) Meaning privilege, or dignity.
13 Which are born not of blood, nor of the
(t) will of the flesh, nor of the will of man,
but of God.
(t) Of that gross and corrupt nature of man,
which is throughout the Scriptures set as
enemy to the Spirit.
14 (*) (7) And the Word was
made (u) () flesh, and (x) dwelt among us,
(and we (()) saw the (y) glory thereof, (z) as the
glory of the only begotten Son ((())) of the Father)
(a) (((()))) full of grace and truth.
(*) Matthew 1:16 .
(7) That Son, who is God from everlasting,
took upon him man's nature, that one and the
selfsame might be both God and man, which
manifestly appeared to many witnesses, that
saw him amongst whom he was conversant,
and unto whom by sure and undoubted
arguments he shewed both his natures.
(u) That is, man, so that the part is taken
for the whole, by the figure Synecdoche;
for he took upon him all our whole nature,
that is to say, a true body, and a true soul.
() He was formed and made man
by the operation of the holy Ghost
without the operation of man.
(x) For a season,
and when that was ended,
he went up into heaven; for the word
which he useth, is taken from tents, and yet
notwithstanding, his absence from us in body is
not such, but that he is always present with us,
though not in flesh, yet by the virtue of his spirit.
(()) Matthew 17:2; 2 Peter 1:17 .
(y) The glory which he speaketh of here, is that
manifestation of Christ his majesty, which was
as it were laid open before our eyes when the
Son of God appeared in flesh.
(z) This word (as)
doeth not in this place betoken
a likeness, but the truth of the matter, for his
meaning is this, that we saw such a glory, as
beseemed and was meet for the true and only
begotten Son of God, who is Lord and King
over all the world.
((())) Or, proceeding from the Father.
(a) He was not only a partaker of grace
and truth, but was full of the very substance
of grace and truth.
(((()))) Colossians 1:19; Colossians 2:9 .
15 ¶ (8) John bare witness of him, and cried,
saying, This was he of whom I said, He that
cometh (b) after me, is preferred before me,
for he was (c) (*) before me.
(8) John is a faithful witness
of the excellency of Christ.
(b) That is, He before whom I am sent to
prepare him the way, so that these words are
referred to the time of his calling, and not of
his age, for John was six months older than he.
(c) This sentence
hath in it a turning of the reason
as we call it, as who would say, a setting
of that first which should be last, and that last
which should be first, for in plain speech this it
is; He that cometh after me, is better than I am,
for he was before me.
The like kind of turning
the reason we find in Luke 7:47; many sins
are forgiven her, because she loved much,
which is thus much to say, she loved much,
because many sins are forgiven her.
(*) Or, more excellent than I.
16 (*) (9) And of his fullness have all we
received, and (d) () grace for grace.
(*) Colossians 1:19; Colossians 2:9 .
(9) Christ is the most plentiful fountain of all
goodness, but then he poured out his gifts most
bountifully, when as he exhibited and shewed
himself to the world.
(d) That is, grace upon grace, as a man
would say graces heaped one upon another.
() More abundant grace than by Moses.
17 For the Law was given by Moses,
but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
18 (10) (*) No man hath seen God
at any time; the only begotten Son, which
is in the (e) () bosom of the Father, he hath
(f) (()) declared him.
(10) The true knowledge of God
proceedeth only from Jesus Christ.
(*) 1 Timothy 6:16; 1 John 4:12 .
(e) Who is nearest to his Father, not only in
respect of his love towards him, but by the
bond of nature, and for that union or oneness
that is between them, whereby the Father and
the Son are one.
() Meaning he is most dear, and straitly joined to
his Father, not only in love, but also in nature and
union.
(f) Revealed him, and shewed him unto us,
whereas before he was hid under the shadows
of the Law, so that the quickness of the sight
of our minds was not able to perceived him;
for whosoever seeth him, seeth the Father also.
(()) And so God that before was invisible,
was made, as it were, visible in Christ.
19 ¶ (11) Then this is the record of John,
when the Jews sent Priests and Levites from
Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?
(11) John is neither the Messiah, nor like to any
of the other Prophets, but is the herald of Christ,
who is now present.
20 And he (g) confessed and (h) denied not,
and said plainly, I (*) am not the Christ.
(g) He did acknowledge him, and spake
of him plainly and openly.
(h) This rehearsing of one and the selfsame
thing, though in divers words, is used much of
the Hebrews, and it hath great force; for they
used to speak one thing twice, to set it out
more certainly and plainly.
(*) Acts 13:25 .
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou
Elijah? And he said, (i) I am not. Art thou (k)
the (*) Prophet? And he answered, No.
(i) The Jews thought
that Elijah should come
again before the days of the Messiah,
and they took the ground of that their
opinion out of Malachi 4:5; which place
is to be understood of John,
Matthew 11:14 .
And yet John denieth that he is Elijah,
answering them indeed according
as they meant.
(k) They enquire of some great Prophet,
and not of Christ, for John denied before,
that he is Christ, for they thought that some
great Prophet should be sent like unto Moses,
wresting to that purpose that place of
Deuteronomy 18:15; which is to be understood
to all the company of the Prophets and ministers,
which have been and shall be to the end, and
especially of Christ, who is the head
of all Prophets.
(*) Whom they looked for to be such one as
Moses was, Deuteronomy 18:15 .
22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou, that
we may give an answer to them that sent us?
What sayest thou of thyself?
23 He said, I (*) am the voice of him that crieth
in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the
Lord, as said the Prophet Isaiah.
(*) Isaiah 40:3; Matthew 3:3; Luke 3:4 .
24 (12) Now they which were sent,
were of the Pharisees.
(12) Christ is the author of baptism, and not
John; and therefore the force thereof consisteth
not in John, who is the minister, but wholly in
Christ the Lord.
25 And they asked him, and said unto him,
(l) Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not the
Christ, neither Elijah, nor the Prophet?
(l) Hereby we may prove that the Jews knew
there should be some change in religion under
Messiah.
26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with
water, but there is one (m) among you, whom
ye know not.
(m) Whom all the world seeth not, and is even
amongst you.
27 (*) He it is that cometh after me, which is
preferred before me, whose shoe latchet I am
not worthy to unloose.
(*) Matthew 3:11; Mark 1:7; Luke 3:16;
Acts 1:5; Acts 11:16; Acts 19:4 .
28 These things were done in Bethabara
beyond Jordan, where John did baptize.
29 ¶ (13) The next day John seeth Jesus coming
unto him, and saith, Behold (n) that Lamb of God,
which (o) taketh away the (p) (*) sin of the
world.
(13) The body and truth of all the sacrifices of
the Law, to make satisfaction for the sin of the
world, is in Christ.
(n) This word (That) which is added, hath great
force in it, not only to set forth the worthiness of
Christ, and so to separate him from the Lamb
which was a figure of him, and from all other
sacrifices of the Law, but also to bring into
our mind the Prophecies of Isaiah and others.
(o) This word of the present time signifieth
a continual act, for the Lamb hath this virtue
proper unto him, and forever, to take away
the sins of the world.
(p) That is, that root of sins, to wit, our
corruption, and so consequently, the fruits of
sins, which are commonly called in the plural
number sins.
(*) Signifying the original sin, which is the
fountain of all sins and therewith all other sins.
30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh
a man, which is preferred before me, for he was
before me.
31 And (q) I knew (*) him not, but because he
should be declared to Israel, therefore am I
come, baptizing with water.
(q) I never knew him by face before.
(*) That is, by sight, but only by the revelation
of God.
32 (14) So John bare record, saying, I saw (*)
the Spirit come down from heaven, like a dove,
and it abode upon him,
(14) Christ is proved to be
the Son of God, by the coming down of the holy
Ghost, by the Father's voice, and by John's
testimony.
(*) Matthew 3:16; Mark 1:10; Luke 3:22 .
33 And I knew him not,
but he that sent me to baptize with water,
he said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see
the Spirit come down, and tarry still on him,
that is he which baptizeth with the
(*) holy Ghost.
(*) Who giveth the virtue and effect
to baptism, accomplishing that thing
which is thereby represented.
34 And I saw, and bare record
that this is (r) that Son of God.
(r) This word (That) pointeth out
unto us some excellent thing, and
maketh a difference between Christ
and others, whom Moses and the Prophets
commonly call the sons of God, or the sons
of the most high.
35 ¶ (15) The next day, John stood again,
and two of his disciples.
(15) John gathereth disciples,
not to himself, but to Christ.
36 (16) And he beheld Jesus walking by,
and said, Behold the (*) Lamb of God.
(16) Christ is set before us to follow not
as a vain shadow, but as our Mediator.
(*) He alludeth to the Paschal lamb,
which was a figure of Christ.
37 (17) And the two disciples heard him
speak, and followed Jesus.
(17) In this first gathering of the disciples
we have shewed unto us, that the beginning
of salvation is from God, who calleth us unto
his Son by the ministry of his servants; whom
(so preventing us) we must also hear, and follow
him home, that being instructed by him, we may
also instruct others.
38 Then Jesus turned about,
and saw them follow, and said
unto them, What seek ye? And they
said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say
by interpretation, Master) (s) (*) where
dwellest thou?
(s) Where is thy lodging?
(*) Or where is thy lodging? Or whither
goest thou? For he dwelled in Nazareth,
and was there as a stranger.
39 He said unto them, Come, and see. They
came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with
him that day, for it was about the (t) (*) tenth
hour.
(t) The night grew on.
(*) That was, two hours before night.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of
the two which had heard (*) it of John, and that
followed him.
(*) How John said,
that Jesus was the Lamb of God.
41 The same found his brother Simon first, and
said unto him, We have found that Messiah
which is by interpretation, that (u) Christ.
(u) That is, anointed, and King after the manner
of the Jewish people.
42 And he brought him to Jesus. And Jesus
beheld him, and said, Thou art Simon the son
of Jona; thou shalt be called Cephas, which is
by interpretation (*) a stone.
(*) Or, Petrus.
43 ¶ The day following, Jesus would go into
Galilee, and found Philip, and said unto him,
Follow me.
44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of
Andrew and Peter.
45 (18) Philip found Nathanael, and said unto
him, We have found him of whom (*) Moses
did write in the Law, and the () Prophets,
Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
(18) The good endeavors even of the unlearned,
God doeth so allow, that he maketh them masters
to the learned.
(*) Genesis 49:10; Deuteronomy 18:18 .
() Isaiah 40:10, Isaiah 45:8; Jeremiah 23:5;
Jeremiah 33:14; Ezekiel 34:25; Ezekiel 37:24;
Daniel 9:24 .
46 (19) Then Nathanael said unto him, Can there
any (*) good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip
said to him, Come, and see.
(19) We must especially take heed of false
presumptions, which shut up against us the
entrance to Christ.
(*) Those things which are contemptible to the
world, are esteemed and preferred of God; and
those things which the world preferreth, God
abhorreth.
47 (20) Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and
said of him, Behold indeed an Israelite, in whom
is no guile.
(20) Simple uprightness discerneth the true
Israelites from the false.
48 (21) Nathanael said unto him, Whence
knewest thou me? Jesus answered, and said
unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when
thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
(21) The end of miracles is to set before us
Christ the Almighty, and also the only author
of our salvation, that we may apprehend him
by faith.
49 Nathanael answered, and said unto him,
Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the
King of Israel.
50 Jesus answered, and said unto him,
Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under
the fig tree, (*) believest thou? Thou shalt
see greater things than these.
(*) Or, thou believest.
51 And he said unto him, Verily,
verily, I say unto you, Hereafter shall
ye see heaven () open, and the Angels
of God (*) (x) ascending, and descending
upon that Son of man.
() Christ openeth the heavens, that we may
have access to God, and maketh us fellows
to the Angels.
(*) Genesis 28:12 .
(x) By these words, the power of God
is signified which should appear in his
ministry by the angels serving him as
the head of the Church.
