To be cont. @resistancechics PG here, Good morning. For Sunday, March 23, 2025. Chapter 7, sections 86 and 87, Day 41, of about 100 pages of John Locke Second Treatises of Government. "pater familias," In Roman family law, the term "Patria potestas" (Latin: “power of a father”). The oldest living male in a household could legally exercise autocratic authority over his extended family. Jesus Christ is the "Paterfamilias." (sect. 86 (and the family is as much a family, and his power as paterfamilias as great, whether there be any slaves in his family or not). This is why the Bible stresses the only begotten of the Father. The Son of God. Through submission to his Father until death. He was given all power and authority over the family of God.

The power and authority here are the greatest any man can have. So many men try to usurp this power and authority from the People, God's children, the Sons of God on earth. We each have in us the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit making their home within us. Rev. 21.

....The Pope, Supremacy. Papal supremacy is the doctrine of the Catholic Church that the Pope, by reason of his office as Vicar of Christ, is the visible source and foundation of the unity. Vicar of Christ. The King of England, the Divine Right of Kings. Which John Locke refuted in another book. It is the right to be Jesus Christ representative in the church through Peter. Wikipedia: 1536, Henry had broken with Rome, seized assets of the Catholic Church in England and Wales and declared the Church of England as the established church with himself as its head. The new Oath of Supremacy that nobles were required to swear gave the Queen's title as supreme governor of the church rather than supreme head, to avoid the charge that the monarchy was claiming divinity or usurping Christ, whom the Bible explicitly identifies as Head of the Church.

Jesus Christ is alive and well, and he is the head of all men.

...The Mother and Father both have equal power and authority from God, representing Jesus as head led by his love, compassion, and Holy Spirit within her. reference below.

The meat of it all. Each of us has the right to justice from God. The right to live free, enjoying all the rights and privileges of the law of nature. Uncontrolled by others, which is witchcraft. Each man has with God in him the right to preserve his property, that is, his life, liberty, and estate, against the injuries and attempts of other men. He has the right to punish anyone who has injured him, to judge and punish those breaking the Ten Commandments or trespassing against him. If he is convinced of the crimes, even unto death to defend himself and his property.

When entering into a political or civil society, the community or one's peers act as an umpire between men. The people must be the representatives of a man's natural right to defend himself. The man does not lose his rights or power from being in a natural free state but has someone representing him.
