The New Black Robed Regiment is comprised of men of the cloth, and men and women supportive of them, who are joined in the common purpose of the saving of our Christian Nation and the freedoms won by our Forefathers in the American Revolution and preserved in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Regiment members believe in the infallibility of Scripture as contained in the Authorized Version of the King James Holy Bible; that all life is precious, abortion is a sin, marriage is between one heterosexual male and one heterosexual female, and that men in Holy Orders shall be of high morals and heterosexual. We fervently believe in the American tenets of freedom and Christian Faith upon which our Nation was founded. Members are found in different denominations and independent churches. They may or may not know each other depending on their personal situation. Some are very open and well known while others work anonymously. They may be employed in religious or secular jobs. Members are found in a variety of places such as business and industry, the military, law enforcement, emergency medical services, hospitals, schools, colleges, and government. Some members of the Regiment may be in a place or position they cannot express or reveal their Christian faith openly but work quietly or “underground.” Regiment membership is solitary and there is no organizational membership. If members learn of one another, they are encouraged to fellowship and pray together. They may collaborate on activities that further the objectives of the New Black Robed Regiment. Members are responsible for their actions and are independent. The Regiment takes no responsibility for and does not encourage violence or the breaking of the law. A formal organizational structure is discouraged, noting that the member is a solitary “prayer warrior” and minister of God first and foremost. Our prayers are to beseech God’s Guidance and Power to uproot peaceably the corruption evident among political leaders who oppress the people, use government for selfish pursuits, and block the Constitutional processes of Democracy and Representative Government in our American Republic. The New Black Robed Regiment’s members support the founding principles of our Country, the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution of the United States of America. They must be willing to teach their congregations or persons with whom they associate the history of the founding of the United States of America and read often the Declaration of Independence and teach the precepts of freedom and responsibilities contained in the Constitution. They lead their congregations and fellowships in prayer for our Nation and its leaders, local, state, and national and always praying that God will raise up righteous Christian men and women to serve as leaders of the people. Members should observe special days in American history and see that they are taught and remembered as “historic holidays.” Families as well as civic organizations are important places where members may reach people with the Regiment’s message. These simple principles are the guide to the work of the Regiment. When you enlist, you receive a card which is black bearing a white cross. This reminds us that the Regiment takes Christ’s Light into places of darkness remembering always John 12:32. On the reverse side is a number written in hand (the number will indicate the numerical order of your enlistment), and your name does not appear unless you add it. July 2, 1776, printed on the card, is the date of the approval of the Declaration of Independence and the date the Continental Congress ordered it to be circulated to the clergy of the Colonies and read to their congregations. The word “Philadelphia” reminds of the location of this historic decision. This card is to remind us, the “new” Black Regiment members of the way the first Black Regiment put their lives on the line, as well as the importance of our mission. Members are encouraged to pray for the United States morning, noon, and night. No records of members are kept, as there is no organization beyond the fellowship in the Cross of Jesus. The Regiments Commander is the only one who will have knowledge of members. Email addresses are kept confidential and used only to communicate important information of the Regiment. This may be discontinued and members may retrieve news from the web site. A lapel pin in the design of the member card is offered to each member to identify himself to other members. A flag of the same design approximately three by five feet is available to be flown or displayed, as the Regiment member deems appropriate in honoring our Savior. The flag and pin must be ordered from the larrywjohnson@embarqmail.com . Members are encouraged to wear black regularly and often, especially when preaching, teaching about our country's history, freedoms, Constitution, about our Founding Fathers, commemorating a special day in history of our country or to indicate our country in distress. Ministers, priests, pastors, and lay ministers who are accustomed to wearing clergy attire will have black robes or gowns, but others are encouraged to acquire them from church supply houses, or wear a simple black suit or dress. Advisories via email or web site news will offer suggestions for various activities, such as the reenactment of the Rev. Peter Mulenburg’s dramatic announcement that he had joined the Continental Army, suggested prayers, prayer requests, available reading material, important dates, available curriculums, teaching aids, and the like. Should you desire send news of your activities to be reported in the emails to members please do so. Note whether you wish to remain anonymous. To join you email larrywilsonjohnson@embarqmail.net Provide an address to which your card will be mailed. There are neither dues nor organizational structure, simply the communion of men of the cloth, and their supporters, united in the common cause of guarding, restoring, and bringing our Nation back to the God of the Holy Trinity Our Father, we pray that You will strengthen us as we work to restore our Nation and return her to YOU. We ask the protection of our country, her people and Give thanks for our freedoms and independence of old. For the New Black Robed Regiment and her members we ask for the power of the Holy Ghost to be released within each member to pursue Your Great Commission. Give each courage to stand against sin, attacks upon our Christian Faith and our beloved United States of America. Further, we ask not to weaken in the mist of the battle and as the arms of Moses were held up and the Victory achieved, that You Lord will sustain us in the day of our current struggle; and that at the last when we shall be called home our Cry shall continue to ring out across our land from the breast of every Citizen, King Jesus is the Lord and Master of these United States of America. And in the name of our Savior Jesus Christ we pray and give our oath as did the founders of our nation on July 2, 1776, praying that the following ideals be etched eternally in the hearts of every American desiring to be free _____ *Excerpted from the Declaration of Independence. http://www.theanglicanchurch.net/Editorial.html |
