OBJECTIVE #3

Rebuild out of the ruins of Babylonian captivity in State

Resurrection of County Government To

Overcome Bureaucratic Strongholds

A Voluntary Union of Free and Independent States

Exercising the Three Functions of Government: 

Planning, Executing, and Judging for Themselves

Contrary to how things appear, the state governs only when it enforces our common law heritage, undergirding our supreme law of the land, the US Constitution. The confusion in our modern era is that our states are not governing but tyrannizing to the degree that they legislate and enforce man-made socialistic and communistic law.

The state is preoccupied with dominating over families and churches as it has been the previous 200 years. However, the higher truth is that the church has in many ways ceased “standing against the whiles of the devil” to admonish the state to serve as God’s ministers instead of as Satan’s tyrants. 

Having marinated in America’s founding history, government, and law for over twenty-seven years, I’ve become pregnant with what is good about America instead of focusing on what is wrong with virtually everything. A mighty work of our King in America is that our Founders were liberated from the Old pagan World of Europe of law for law’s sake in exchange for the New World of America of law for liberty’s sake. In other words, true law in this country is liberty to govern yourself. Hence, liberty is the law. 

Liberty as the law is evidence that America’s birthright (Declaration of ’76) and vindication (British surrender at Yorktown, Virginia in 1781) to self-govern was a shout of victory over the evil empire! Families, and only families, have the right to dominate the land, not the state and certainly not the church. The church’s role is to displace and destroy evil, and the state’s role is protection from evil. That leaves the role of dominion to the family, which makes for a free nation: Free people—free nation. 

Yet a never-before-seen victory at the national level did not mean that Satan ceased from his operations so that Americans could enjoy a peaceful, conflict-free life. The natural condition of our relationship gardens is not flowers but weeds (strongholds). Utter vigilance is required to maintain order in service to our Divine Savior King. 

“And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven 

suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.”

                         —King Jesus; Matthew’s gospel record 11:12

The manifestation of the King’s government in America brings Him glory. That is why the enemy has been corrupting and assaulting the family, church, and state the last 200 years (1820–2020). The launch of this ministry in 2020 was a shout-out that my family no longer consents to such evils prevailing in America.

One of the beauties of our common law form of government is the key constitutional officer at the county level—the sheriff. The county sheriff is the highest constitutional officer protecting the lives, freedoms, and properties of the families and churches within his county. 

Most sheriffs (not all, thankfully) are ignorant of the documented fact that true law in America is the liberty to govern oneself. They don’t understand that they function in a dual-role. The first role of the sheriff, as elected by the people in his county, is to protect them from encroachments and crimes from individuals and from county, state, and federal agents. You and I remain in our retained rights jurisdiction for all governance that has not been expressly delegated in our Constitution, which public agents take an oath of fidelity before the true Lawgiver to uphold. The second role of the sheriff is to enforce laws under his state governor that don’t exceed the governor’s limited, delegated jurisdiction. Idolatrous legislators each year diminish our God-delegated liberties to self-govern. Thank the Lord Jesus that in our form of government, the sheriff is a bulwark against such encroachments and lusts of legislators. 

A truly God-fearing sheriff has the discretion to not enforce laws that encroach on the people’s life, liberty, and property. Again, that is one of the beauties of our form of government—the people are their own rulers.

“There, every man is independent of all laws, except those prescribed by nature.

He is not bound by any institutions formed by his fellowman without his consent.”

-- CRUDEN v. NEALE, 2 N.C. 338 (1796) 2 S.E. 70 

Therefore, we the people will instruct and empower the sheriff to defend our families and churches by resisting lawlessness from socialists, Marxists, and communists who are prevailing under the sheriff’s jurisdiction. Because there is only one Lawgiver (James 4:12), the Lord Jesus Christ, genuine Christians are the only ones who understand justice as the Scriptures record and therefore the only ones who can lead legislation, execution, and judgment in matters of law. The state is His minister to enforce the law of the land, not aggrandizing bureaucratic agencies to the demise of families. The following are current projects to resurrect county government:

• American Sheriff at Common Law: a 12-part video course in cooperation with America’s underground lawyer, Brent Allan Winters, and Sheriff Dar Leaf of Barry County, Michigan

• Ancillary to the sheriff’s law enforcement by cooperate in creating, organizing, and deploying Committees of Safety.

• Raise awareness about America’s enemy with my contextual model: “Two Views of Life in America: Contrasting America’s Enemy With Americans”

• Biblical, historical, and constitutional resources supporting America’s common law way of life are available at our online store: www.LibertyIsTheLaw.us

Despite the Durmaz household not being protected by our county sheriff from encroachments to our lives, our liberty, and our property, I am leading my family in the resurrection of household governance under divine law and America’s heritage of common law and am freed from such bureaucratic strongholds as the following: 

• Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
• Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)
• Department of Transportation (DOT)
• United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)
• Construction Contractors Board (CCB)
• Occupational Safety & Hazard Administration (OSHA)
