ICE is doing their job. This is their duty as law enforcement. If you interrupt law enforcement you are a criminal. It doesn’t take much wisdom to understand this. A child understands when a policeman says stop to stop. Every leader undermining the work of ICE is exercising criminal behavior, not protesting rights.
Texas State Penalty (Class B Misdemeanor): Generally, interference with public duties in Texas carries up to 180 days in county jail and/or a fine of up to $2,000.
Federal Penalties (18 U.S.C. § 111): Assaulting, resisting, or impeding federal officers with physical contact can lead to 8 years in prison. If a deadly weapon is used or bodily injury results, this increases to up to 20 years.
Federal Obstruction (18 U.S.C. § 1509/1512): Obstructing court orders can result in up to 1 year in prison, while tampering with witnesses or victims can carry penalties up to 20 years.
Actions Considered Interference: This includes physical resistance, verbal disobedience, tampering with evidence, lying to officers, or interfering with an arrest.
Common Misunderstandings and Defenses
Verbal vs. Physical: Interference does not have to be physical; verbal disruption can lead to charges.
Defenses: In Texas, it is a defense if the disruption was based solely on speech, such as filming or questioning police without physically obstructing them, or if the intent was to warn a driver about a speed trap.
Long-Term Impact: Beyond immediate jail or fines, a conviction can impact employment, security clearances, and housing
Protesting is not interfering with law enforcement. Start arresting everyone, including public officials and news media exercising fraud, not their “rights”!
Yahweh, our Father God, wants us to live in cycles of blessings. The enemy comes in order to steal and kill and destroy. God sent His Son that you may have life, and have it in abundance, to the full, till it overflows.
The Jewish Calendar is the actual calendar God designed for all of His children. His calendar design deserves our attention.
You may have a hard time believing this, but the Jewish calendar is really just God’s calendar and was created for all of His children to follow.
As a homeschool mom, and lover of Christ we loved learning about Jesus and everything about His life, His following of God’s calendar, and even His early beginnings. When we realized Jesus celebrated all the feasts with His family, and later after He grew up, and that each feasts points us directly to Him, we were astounded. It brought us on a path we had to follow.
I became aware that the Christian Church transitioned away from the biblical Hebrew calendar. This sadly, replaced Jewish feasts with Christianized holidays, establishing Sunday as the Sabbath as influenced by Rome.
God created the calendar to remind us of His Son, and bring us from glory to glory. God wants us to pray for Israel as they celebrate these times to see His Son revealed in each one. It is clear, His calendar is a gift to each of His children and it is an honor to follow Him in every area of our lives.
In (325 AD) the Council of Nicaea changed the method for calculating Easter, purposely separating it from Passover. Emperor Constantine demanded a uniform, non-Jewish calendar, declaring it improper for Christians to follow the “murderers of our Lord”. Easter was set for the first Sunday after the full moon following the vernal equinox, but was this what God intended?
The Church Separated From God’s Calendar
Didn’t Jesus Himself celebrate all of the Jewish feasts? This was His heritage and it is our heritage as well.
The Church adopted Romanized pagan holidays that filled the void left by Jewish feasts as described below:
Christmas (December 25): Originally the Roman festival Dies Natalis Solis Invicti (Birthday of the Unconquered Sun) and Saturnalia. The church replaced these with the nativity of the “son of righteousness”.
Halloween/All Saints’ Day: Merged with the Celtic festival of Samhain, which commemorated ancestors and the harvest.
Easter: Often associated with springtime fertility rituals and the Babylonian fasting associated with the Goddess of Reproduction.
Valentine’s Day: Derived from the Roman festival of Lupercalia.
Candlemas: Associated with earlier pagan celebrations of light.
Making Pagan Holidays Spiritual
By keeping familiar, popular holidays but changing their meaning to Christian narratives, the Church made the new religion more palatable to pagans. When the Church could not eliminate deeply ingrained festivals, they “spiritualized” them. Churches were often built on top of former pagan temples and groves, maintaining the same sacred sites for worship. While some reformers, such as the Puritans, later tried to strip these, many traditions like gift-giving, lighting candles, and feasting—originally part of Roman solstice celebrations—remain part of modern Christian holidays.
