The Most High God Yahuah is the Father and the Creator of heaven and earth, the sea, and all that therein is; and [the “settlement” or “dwelling” of] his feminine effluence [or anima] is the Shekhinah* [which is known as the Holy Spirit]. He existed in the black womb of the limitless nothing <nous> before creation; therefore the black darkness, “waters,” of the primordial “sea” is the mother of God, who is the Grantor of creation. His Son is the receiver and beneficiary — the king and messiah — the Christ, of his creation; therefore Mary the sea is the mother of Christ [and is, in another sense, his sister, and in another his bride]. of God’s wisdom, which we may partake only through the divine intermediary of Melchizedek Yahushuah HaMoshiach, the feminine effluence is Sophia; and she is the church and bride of the Christ. it is she who the wise court by the grace of the Father. of God’s wisdom, the male custodian is He whose student-body is the mystery school of all the ages which has gone by many names. it is He who teaches all who have learned of the true nature of all things, which is unchanging heretofore and henceforth even forever. the cults who have corrupted His teachings and instructions only misguide themselves and they are a stumbling block unto themselves. they who add to, take from, and confound His precepts do not negate His true perception, neither do they matter withal. He is Melchizedek Yahushuah HaMoshiach. He is chancellor, dean, rector and grand preceptor of the universal decentralized and autonomous mystery school. He appeared to me at the school of George Washington and entered me into Men Nefer College of Scribe; passed me through the Department of Information Systems Intelligence Service at Universitas Autodidactus, where i completed my dissertation on human mind software; raised me to the Kogard-Godsdog College of Law where i obtained my Sui Juris Doctorate; and graduated me with an Ecclesiastic and Medical Doctorate from the most laudable Beaver Medical College. i am professor-general and grand tutor of the 153d CORPS of UA, which was established 2014 in the New Syllabus of this Age. i am the proprietor of the Beaver Medicine Lodge of Nacotchtank, Powhatan, Washita Nation, and managing partner at Weasel Badger Beaver Mink & Otter. my name is Dams Up Water and my medicine is strong.

*Wiki: shekhinah is derived [from] š-k-n, means “to settle, inhabit, or dwell”.[7][8] In the verb form, it is often used to refer to the dwelling of a person[9] or animal[10] in a place, or to the dwelling of God.[11] Nouns derived from the root included shachen (“neighbor”)[12] and mishkan (a dwelling-place, whether a secular home[13] or a holy site such as the Tabernacle[14]

[bulla] General Theory of Action (GTA)
General Theory of Action,
Admiral, Ecclesiastical, Civil & Common; and Method of Animating a Corpus; or, ‘The Great Work’
(a) Grand Rite
- How is assessment, assault, or battery effected?
- By one charging their body toward another.
- Therefore if a body is charged, then it is made liable for its actions,
- Where its actions are commissioned or committed by the motion of the body in question.
- Therefore hear ye the matter in question to find out its solution,
- Wherefore a jury shall have standing to constitute a sitting for the purpose of duly determining such resolution in a motion to adjust the account of the body in question.
- One must have standing to have sitting to determine a matter in question:
- One must have ius decire to assidere in assizes;
- One must voir et dire to oyer et terminer;
- And assemble when so summoned at the place of ius venire.
- A body is res (matter) that is moved by the spiritus (breath).
- The breath moves the body, while the blood enlivens of the body.
- To circulate a current drawn from a pool drawn from the sea.
(b) Grand Jury
- Ride circuit; patrol district;
- Docket matters (x): issue bond (instrument binding one to pay a sum to another, the sum in general being attention);
- Voir et Dire (see and say) to examine, try, and find suitability;
- Enlist a pool (venire) of jurists (iure); issue note (instrument promising payment);
- Summon iure from pool;
- Assemble the iure pool;
- Impanel the iure;
- Oyer et Terminer (hear and determine) the facts; publish evidence; witness testimony;
- Move body to render a verdict (y): issue no/true bill (instrument drafting, ordering, or otherwise charging payment).
(c) Jury Venire
Venire is “to come,” as for the purpose of an action, with respect to the venue thereof, which is here styled:
UNIVERSITAS AUTODIDACTUS
COLLEGIUM ECCLESIASTICAE
ORDO TEMPLI ET OBLATI NOVUS SYLLABUS SECLORUM EX OFFICIO TRIBUNUS ANTARUS SUI IURIS ET PROXIMUS AMICUS IN RE SPIRITUS ET NOMINE XRISTI
Friendly Society, a branch office of the Catholic Church
(d) Autonomous Clearing and Counterparty Services
- Forms of payment (or exchange) other than attention include, but are not limited to, one’s own personal recognizance (note), labor and the fruits thereof, real property and instruments secured thereby, and the blood sacrifice of our Lord and Savior.
- Tithes, or giving of thanks offerings, are not a form of payment.
- Bondholders have a creditor stake in a body or entity; they are the one to whom payment is made.
- Bonds usually have a defined term, or maturity, after which the bond is redeemed.
- In general, faith is the premium paid to the Savior for the redemption of the bond represented in God’s grant, or credit, of life (blood, breath) to their body, a debtor. By and through this payment, a trust is established wherein the Savior has laid down His own life for ours. Without this policy of utmost assurance and indemnification (which is offered to us by the Grace and Mercy of the Lord our God), the bond on our life reverts to the worldly Babylonian government of Satan, to whom we would otherwise be bound to pay. Ergo, there must be a surety to redeem the “baby loan.”
(e) Production
(1) Action takes place on a stage. A stage for sport is a court. All players are due their wages, unless they freely volunteer.
(2) This office shall docket auditions for the performance. The (members of the) Church itself shall be the director of photography, using their own personal devices; the members shall broadcast in real time the production to the network.
(3) This drama is written by Yahushuah; the plot is to gather the lost sheep before the last day and to sail/float/settle the policy of assurance. The drama is not written on paper; it is written in the heart by the Living Word and lived out in the world, which is a stage. Those who are not of our studio, or of the Company thereof, are of the world.
(4) All properties within the trust of the church [‘company’] are legally owned by the trustees thereof for the benefit of the beneficiaries thereof, by grant of the Most High God YHVH. The trustees of the church benefit from the “corporate shield” of the whole Church, that is, the Society of our Lord and Savior, in contradistinction to any denomination or manmade body-corporate thereof.
(5) Pro forma script for self-defense
COMES NOW I, [Christian Name], Sui Iuris, in propria persona, by special appearance, and on behalf of the Church of the Christ of the Most High God YHVH as proximus amicus, and to MOVE THE COURT [TO DISMISS, etc.] the above styled matter for [lack of personal/subject matter jurisdiction], under [the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America] and the law of the Land as represented in the holy scriptures. I am a child of the Most High God YHVH, and heir to His estate; I invoke the assurance of redemption and the wise counsel of our Lord and Savior YHUSHAI to assist me in this endeavor, and I reserve all my rights without prejudice. The [matter/charges/etc.] herein alleged are hereby accepted for value and returned from whence they came; there is on my part no liability in this [matter/charge/etc.]; wherefore I pray, move and order this court to [dismiss/abate/abrogate/adjust/etc.] the above-styled matter, In Nomine Xristi, Amen.
(6) SUPREME HIERARCHY OF AUTHORITY
- THE [PRODUCTION/STAGING] COMPANY = OF YAHUSHUAH MOSIACH YHVH ELOHIM, Creator, Grantor of Right;
- THE STUDIO [THEATER] = the order [ObNS];
- THE SCREENWRITER = The Sovereign Lawgiver (Christ Pantocrator);
- THE PRODUCERS = The Privy Council (the Board of the Church at Washington/Ouachita/Washitaw Al’Maghreb/Al’Maroc/Al’Meri’ka/America, band of Nacotchtank, Croatan, etc. of the Algonkian line);
- THE PERFORMANCE VENUE = The Court (care of the next friend as lord of the realm);
- THE PERFORMANCE = The [Great] Commission of the Court [of the Church] (ministries, missions, members, committees, clerics);
- DRAMATIS PERSONAE = The Body Politic (The Church);
- Clericus (Minus/Magnus/Maximus): the ministering cleric, clerk of the court, secretary-treasurer, and Chancellor of the Exchequer; functionally, the office of scribe, administration and general operations;
- Steward/Warden: the legal trustee of the premises, general hearing officer, and chair of the House committee of the whole; the “ward” i.e., keeper, guard, protector, possessor, lord, watchman;
- Custodian: the key holder, superintendent and caretaker of the furniture and premises;
- Admiral: the tyler, outer guard, or sergeant-at-arms;
- Preceptor: Chief Clinical Dialectical Practitioner; Head of ‘Grand Rounds‘;
- Members: Clinical Dialectical Client;
- Fellows: Fellowcraft/Master Clinical Dialectical Practitioner;
- Residents: Journeyman Clinical Dialectical Practitioner;
- Interns: Apprentice Clinical Dialectical Practitioner;
- Attending/Visiting Ministers: Circuit Riders.
(f) SOLICITATION OF ONE’S HAND IN MATRIMONY
After the example set forth by our Lord and Savior who has received the Church unto himself in heavenly matrimony, will you [Christian Name] enter into holy matrimony with me?
Solicitor-Bridegroom
A proposal to enter into a matrimonial contact is a “solicitation”. Copulation outside of such a contract is not per se unethical, but the solicitation of sex is a transgression.

OBLATUS NOVUS SYLLABUS
Dispatched from the desk of the Branch Office at Washington, D.C.
‘Friends bearing witness to Good News and Wise Counsel’
(a) I, Antarah, shall not put on airs of pretense and exalt myself with honorific titles. My birthright is derived from the substance of my human soul and my knowledge of my God my Father. In the likeness of the One begotten of the Father, I’m sworn only to uphold the friendship, like that which Abraham had, with YHVH, and to bear witness that he is the only god worthy of worship, for he has paid a ransom for our everlasting freedom, the policy of which, being offered, is our choice to accept.
(b) My immediate office is an autonomous modular unit that may be integrated into or applied to the development and/or operations of any existing operating system or syndicate. My office provides content, services, and pooled resources based out of a safe and secure storage and clearing house, a house of watchmen, a house of studies. This enterprise is a prophetic company in contradistinction to a profitable company; it is engaged in the business of evangelizing in the apostolic order commissioned by our Sovereign Lord the Messiah. Therefore vouchsafe not your earthly wares with saturnian life storage companies, but rather entrust your earthly burdens for safekeeping, clearing, and relief with our liberation theology-based firm.
(c) JURISDICTIONAL STANDING: (1) We bear witness that the Lord YHSVH of Nazareth is the Sovereign of the earth, anointed by YHVH, the Creator of Heaven and Earth, the sea, and all that therein is, and the Savior-Redeemer of the faithful believers who have accepted His blood sacrifice for their eternal salvation, being made one body politic under Heaven. By and through the acceptance of this trust, such a believer becomes as a child and heir to the Kingdom of God. (2) Neither our Lord nor His Bride the Church can maintain a suit on their own behalf (neither can they own property), as neither is subject to the common law of nations, but rather to the universal law of equity of the Most High God YHVH. (3) All acts carried out or witnessed by one in their capacity as the next friend of their Sovereign Lord are done pursuant to their sincerely held religious belief, whereas there is no hierarchy within the decentralized autonomous organization of believers of the world, each next friend witnesses and ministers in their own sui jurisdiction in the nature of an autonomous church sui iuris. In this way is the DAO’s Firm League of Friendship organized. (4) Herein doth a minister of the Kingdom of God receive their right by and through His Name. (5) This follows the rule that a judge must have standing in the venue of and without interest in the subject matter. (6) The proper name of a Congregational Meeting for Bible Study is the first names of the members, separated by a final “&”, followed by a comma, “Next Friends of Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaorum”.
(d) Furthermore be it hereby RESOLVED, that the ministry of the Immediate Office of Antarah is (1) custodial insofar as it governs and stewards the whole New Syllabus organization; (2) oblative insofar as Antarah is personally promised and dedicated to service in YHWH’s name, by and through the offering of the New Syllabus dialectical and instructional program; (3) congregational insofar as it recognizes the sovereignty and self determination of the local body politic of believers in contradistinction to a bureaucratic hierarchy of priests and officers; (4) interdenominational insofar as it subscribes to the Truth and Light of all faiths and denominations as to the redemption of God’s people through His ultimate sacrifice; (5) subscribed to the method and practice of the Society of Friends; (6) subscribed to the method and practice of Bible Students; (7) subscribed to the method and practice of Djyahudist (rabbinical) Biblical exegesis; (8) represented in the activities of a local Branch Office; and (9) friendly insofar as it convenes a congregation of free thinkers, truth speakers and light workers united in their practice and pursuit of the Way, the Truth, and the Light.

TO ALL TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS COME, SEND GREETINGS AND PEACE:—
The Ecclesiastical Polity,
or, ‘Collegiate Government’,
of the New Testament Kingdom
Congregational Church de la Croix Noire
(a) The ‘Chamber of Instruction’ is within the Beth Midrash, and the ‘Hall of Assembly’ is within the Beth Knesset, and these are so many houses in the bicameral polity ‘body’ of the people assembled of the decentralized autonomous organization in that locality. The Knesset is the upper house and the Midrash is the lower house.
(b) The ‘New Testament Kingdom’ is a feudal trust relationship settled under Roman imperial law by God Himself, by and through his Vicar in Christ, Land Holder and Lord of the Earth Living Forever, by and through the Holy Roman Emperor Constantine the Great, and subsequently assigned, in part, to the Bishop of Rome at the Vatican City. The remainder of the birthright dominion of the people over the Kingdom of Earth is administered in trust for the benefit of all humanity by the anointed society of friends ministering in the following of the High Priest of Melchizedek, the Lamb, being as he is the King, living forever.
(c) It is, therefore, not for purely religious and dogmatic reasons, but for purely civil and legal reasons, that we invoke that name of the Trustee appointed by God Almighty to administer our trust which is known in our jurisdiction ‘nome’, being that of the Roman Empire, by and through its successors the kings of Europe, by and through their successors the republic of nations: KRST YHSVH — IESUS CHRISTUS — the King who will reign from Jerusalem.
(d) There is only one supreme Being ‘Entity’ who created Heaven and Earth of its own matter. All who are born of woman are beneficiaries of its creation, which continues forever. The body of the people of this Creator ‘the Church’ is one, holy, universal and apostolic, with KRST THE KING at its head.
(e) While visiting the Lieutenant Governor of New York after my great uncle’s funeral in Orange, New Jersey, I met with my very good friend Richard of Brooklyn, who told me that that day (yesterday), July 14th, was the real New Year’s Day, in which our ancestors observed the heliacal rising of Sirius and the inundation of Hapi.
(f) Frank Lloyd Wright is hereby canonized a Saint of God by the order of missionary oblates of the New Syllabus program for his efforts in defining a unique American-vernacular architecture. To this unique class belong the noble and worthy personages of Saint Nat Turner, Saint John Coltrane, and Saint Alice Coltrane.
(g) Systembilt Industries, IBCO, FLF-DAO, is hereby chartered as an entity of a religious nature dedicated to continue Saint Frank’s mission to produce sound, beautiful, and affordable housing for every American family by deploying American System-Built Homes around every Mission Fulfillment Center. Usonian Automatic blocks assembled into American System-Built Homes are a block-chain as Mindsoft consoles configured in a DAO fueled by Performance Cubed are a block-chain.
(h) The whole foregoing entity and being are hereby styled:
New Kingdom Congregational Meeting;
1st New Kingdom Congregational Church,
Congregation Beth Midrash Beth Knesset,
of the International Black Cross, FLF-DAO,
nondenominational interfaith ministry,
Antarah, ObNS, Friend presiding,
‘Head of Meeting‘
SECTION (h) DIRECTIVE [click to expand]
Floating the Mission by Sale of Labor on a Daily Basis
Occupation: Day Labor Trader
Lines of Labor Traded: instruction, meeting, investigation, worship, instruments, administration, guardian, custodian, building arts
‘Banking’ Hours: 10AM-3PM, 1st Day to Friday
(h)(1) These lines of service (LOS) are to be considered an extension of peace and good will between friends, the mutual appreciation of which will inure to their mutual benefit. By this is meant an offering, feoffment, or oblation of humanitarian aid, of which a tithe is paid to the Lord of the fee, MALIKI ZADDIK YHSVH XRST, which translates roughly to ‘Equitable Lord Jesus Christ’, the surety of our God-granted trust ‘birthright’. The balance of the charge shall be stored in its capacity and shall not be held for profit by a particular party, but therefrom discharged to the ground (‘the people’).
(h)(2) Therefore it is said regarding the Firm League of Friendship, “Faith is Complete Trust and Firm Belief” applied over a matter of time ‘f(x)=y’, which belief, sincerely held, cannot be converted into a crime. Trust refers to the covenant between God and humanity. Faith refers to the full confidence and mutual assurance exchanged between the parties in the trust relationship. Belief refers to the firmness of faith as held in the hearts and minds of the friends who practice it. This is the MAIN function of the Decentralized Autonomous Intelligence System (DAIS) of the CORPS of Mindsoft.
(h)(3) Toward developing and sustaining a ‘book of business’, service providers ‘servers’ shall make contact with prospective buyers ‘clients’ to whom to offer their services every morning between 8:00AM and 9:00AM, either in person ‘at market’ or via electronic communications. Such clients may or may not be friends, but servers should remain squarely within their equitable God-given sui jurisdiction when ‘trading with the enemy’. No originating sale of labor to be performed on the instant day shall take place after 3:00PM that day; sales consummated after such time shall be performed, fulfilled, and delivered on the next or another future day. Consols may be issued for redemption of future services without originating sales. An ideal contract engagement is one in which a friend-benefactor pays the day rate for the server to perform the mission obligations for the benefit of the friendly public.
American Systembilt Industries

(i) Systembilt Industries shall construct homes in the Wrightian ‘Usonian Automatic‘ vernacular, which is, by this outfit’s estimation, the precursor to the Brutalist vernacular, which is erroneously said to be founded in the United Kingdom in the 1950s, and has since been nearly exclusively devoted to federal government architecture. Whereas the Brutalist is an exaggeration of scale and mass in proportion to the softening panes glass — or a more forgiving human sensibility — the Usonian is intentionally designed for the consumption and appreciation of the human and their family — the American family at that — using a uniquely modular and horizontal American vernacular. Due to the modular and affordable nature of the prefabricated building materials which would be shipped ready-to-assemble to the buyer, Frank Lloyd Wright innovated the construction method AMERICAN SYSTEM-BUILT HOMES. Using the internationally conscious appellation of ‘Usonian’ for ‘United States of North America’ or ‘USONA’, Mr. Wright provides at the turn of the century a vision of USONIA in which every family can own a firm and beautiful AMERICAN HOME at a fixed and reasonable cost.
(j) The planned community of Usonian Automatic homes by Systembilt Industries shall comprise the network of private homes of Friends in the Firm League of Friendship of the decentralized autonomous and International Black Cross Organization. The cultural centers of these communities shall be planned around the Mission Fulfillment Centers which are the meeting tents of the congregation.

(5) Automatic Blocks
The textile block system — the root form of automatic blocks — is a unique structural building method created by Frank Lloyd Wright in the early 1920s. While the details changed over time, the basic concept involves patterned concrete blocks reinforced by steel rods, created by pouring concrete mixture into molds, thus enabling the repetition of form. The blocks are then stacked to build walls. Wright’s textile block houses are:
- Ennis House
- Robert and Rae Levin House (check also the other Michigan – Galesburg and Parkwin/Kalamazoo – houses at List of Frank Lloyd Wright works)
- Millard House
- Samuel Freeman House
- Storer House (Los Angeles)
- Westhope, located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Wright’s only Textile Block house outside of California.[1]


(6) American System-Built Homes
The American System-Built Homes in Milwaukee, Wisconsin:
Frank Lloyd Wright’s earliest system of low-cost housing© 2005 Michael Lilek, All rights reserved
Master of the Small House
Copyright 2004-2005, Michael Lilek, All rights reserved.
Over a career spanning seven decades, Frank Lloyd Wright took special interest in creating architect-designed homes for moderate and low-income families. In the January 1938 issue of Architectural Forum, he commented, “[I] would rather solve the small house problem than build anything else I can think of…” Indeed, among Wright’s greatest masterpieces are several small homes designed for clients who could afford little. Many of these residences owe their existence to some form of client labor (do-it-yourself), ingenious cost-cutting or salvaging. Each magically shelters it occupants in beautiful spaces, connects them to nature, and allows them to feel more alive.
American System-Built Homes
In a 1901 speech entitled, “The Art and Craft of the Machine,” Wright outlined his vision of affordable housing. He asserted that the home would have to go to the factory, instead of the skilled labor coming to the building site. Between 1915 and 1917 Wright designed a series of standardized “system-built” homes, known today as the American System-Built Homes. By system-built, he did not mean pre-fabrication off-site, but rather a system that involved cutting the lumber and other materials in a mill or factory, then bringing them to the site for assembly. This system would save material waste and a substantial fraction of the wages paid to skilled tradesmen. Wright produced more than 900 working drawings and sketches of various designs for the system. Six examples were constructed, still standing, on West Burnham Street and Layton Boulevard in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Other examples were constructed on scattered sites throughout the Midwest with a few yet to be discovered.
Arthur L. Richards, Developer
By 1911, companies connected to Arthur L. Richards had engaged Frank Lloyd Wright to design several projects, including an unbuilt hotel in Madison and the Hotel Geneva in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin (1912, demolished). By November 1916, Richards entered into an agreement with Wright to promote the American System-Built Homes. The contract covered all parts of the United States, Canada and Europe. It called for the Richards Company “…to furnish, as far as possible, all materials entering into the construction of the buildings and to at least furnish the plans, drawings, specifications and details and lumber, millwork, exterior plaster material, paints, stains, glazing, hardware trimmings and electric lighting fixtures for said buildings.” Richards was to recruit a distribution channel of builders and developers from around the country. He appears to have focused his efforts in the Chicago area and a few other Midwestern cities.
The agreement between Wright and Richards anticipated that the American System-Built Homes project would be wildly successful. Unfortunately, the entry of the United States into World War I on April 6, 1917, diverted building materials to wartime needs. Housing starts ground to a halt. Wright also began extensive travels between America and Japan at this time, related to the Imperial Hotel commission. Wright became unhappy with his relationship with Richards, leading to a lawsuit in August of 1917. Central to Wright’s claim was the non-payment of royalties and fees. Wright won a judgment against Richards in February of 1918. Although the business relationship ended after a few years, Wright and Richards rekindled their friendship decades later and exchanged cordial letters and visits.
