The only way to cut through the S.M.U.T. (Satanic Matriarchy Under Trinity) is to turn to true doctrine. In these days of confusion it is refreshing to witness that TRUE DOCTRINE can still be found.

I would like to thank my good friend, and brother in Christ for his patience in allowing me to discover the above website at my leisure. To think that I had it all these years! Thankyou so much, Daniel.

Personal Statement of Faith
 
1. I believe that the LORD GOD is ONE GOD and only one GOD; that GOD is one in every way and there is no way wherein GOD is not one.
 
2. I believe that JESUS is GOD in Person and that the per-son (singular) of GOD is none other than Christ Jesus, the Son of GOD.
 
3. I believe that GOD is a Spirit and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth and that the Father of the Christ seeks such to worship Him.
 
4. I believe that the gospel of GOD must be obeyed by all who follow Him and that all those who are His must be born again.
 
5. I believe in the death, burial, and the resurrection of Christ Jesus, the Son of GOD, Who ascended up to heaven and sat down at the right hand of His power and majesty.
 
6. I believe that JESUS is (literally) the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
 
7. I believe that many are called but few are chosen; that strait is the gate, narrow is the path, and few there be that find it eventhough the promise of salvation in the name of JESUS is given to as many as the LORD GOD shall call.
 
May Jesus, the only wise GOD, bless you and your house in the knowledge of full Bible truth.

ABSTRACT

This report assesses Canada's laws on the recognition of valid foreign polygamous marriages, arguing that the principle of “universality of status�?should be given effect. A valid foreign polygamous marriage should be recognized and given effect to the extent that recognition does not violate Canada's essential “public policy.�?There is a strong association between polygamy and gender inequality, and a fundamental concern is whether either recognizing or failing to recognize valid foreign polygamous marriages would harm women. This report takes the view that the rights of women in valid foreign polygamous marriages should be protected by extending recognition to those marriages. It is the position of this report that recognition would not imply endorsement of polygamy or the gender inequality associated with the practice.

Recognition of valid foreign polygamous marriages raises the issue of how Canadian law should respond to “plural unions�?entered into within Canada in some religious communities. The law does not consider such unions to be marriages. They are legal nullities. No civil legal consequences result merely from the fact that the parties went through a religious ceremony. There are, however, criminal consequences. Section 293 of the Criminal Code criminalizes polygamy and by its terms applies both to those who enter into a plural union within Canada and to parties to a valid foreign polygamous marriage who “practise�?polygamy within Canada. This report examines the history, efficacy and constitutionality of s. 293 of the Criminal Code and recommends that this provision be repealed.

Finally, this report considers arguments for and against permitting polygamous marriages to take place under Canada's domestic laws, specifically, the constitutional arguments that could be made. The report recommends that Canada prepare for a constitutional challenge to the limitation of marriage to two persons.
