HOW SATAN SOLD AMERICA A CENTRAL BANK, AND WHY THAT'S NOT A GOOD THING In John 3:19, the Lord Jesus says that “. . . men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” Few events in history can better illustrate that truth than the events that occurred on the night of November 22, 1910. On this night a small group of men boarded a sealed railway car at Hoboken, New York, and headed southward to a hunting club in Georgia at a place called Jekyl Island. The Central Bank Conspiracy But this was no normal hunting expedition. Then again, these weren’t normal men, and the Jekyl Island Hunt Club was no normal hunting club. The island belonged to a group of millionaires, one being J.P. Morgan, and the club’s membership was made up of millionaires. The club was considered off limits for several days while the suspicious group from New York met there in secret. Senator Nelson Aldrich led the group. Aldrich was a central bank advocate who had just spent two years leading American bankers and politicians around Europe (at tax payer expense) in an effort to sell them on European central banking practices. His daughter married John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and his grandson, Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller, would be Vice President of the United States in 1974. The senator also brought along his private secretary. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, A. Piatt Andrew, attended the Jekyl Island meeting, as did New York bankers Charles D. Morton, Frank Vanderlip, and Henry P. Davidson. J.P. Morgan Company’s Benjamin Strong was there, and a European immigrant by the name of Paul Warburg attended. Warburg earned $500,000 per year working as a partner in the Rothschild-linked New York banking house Kuhn, Loeb and Company. He had been an associate of the Rothschilds before migrating to America in 1902. With a guest list such as this, and with such secrecy shrouding the whole Jekyl Island event, one could easily figure that these men were hunting for something more than ducks. Indeed they were. After nine days the men would leave the island with the plan that would later become the Federal Reserve System, a permanent central bank. Twenty-five years later, Frank Vanderlip of the National City Bank of New York (a Rockefeller bank) would confess that he had been involved in a conspiracy at Jekyl Island, a conspiracy that led to the establishment of the Federal Reserve System: "[T]here was an occasion, near the close of 1910, when I was as secretive—indeed as furtive—as any conspirator . . . I do not feel it is any exaggeration to speak of our secret expedition to Jekyl [sic] Island as the occasion of the actual conception of what eventually became the Federal Reserve System..." Although Aldrich was the leader of the conspiring group, it was Paul Warburg who supplied the brainpower and drew up the plan. Warburg made it clear to all that the plan had to be devised in such a way as to hide the fact that it would create a central bank. This was to be done by establishing a “regional” system consisting of a number of banks. He suggested four regional reserve banks to be located at separate spots in the country. This number would eventually be changed to twelve banks, which hid the central bank scheme even better. Warburg did all he could to keep the hands of Congress off of the new bank plan by suggesting that the administrators of the bank be approved by the President, not by Congress. This made the whole thing unconstitutional since Congress alone had been given such power by our founders. After the Jekyl Island meeting, the push for a national bank actually came in two steps. Step number two wouldn’t have been necessary if the first step had worked, but it didn’t. The Aldrich Plan The first step was the Aldrich Plan (more properly called “the Wall Street Plan” by Congressman Charles Lindbergh, Sr., father of the famous aviator). The bank panic of 1907 had set the stage for some legislative action to improve banking practices and insure deposits, so the Jekyl Island “Hunt Club” was pretty optimistic about their plan making its way through Congress. However, opposition did arise, especially from Lindbergh. Then the Republicans, who had made the Aldrich Plan part of their platform, lost control of the House of Representatives in 1910. They went on to lose the Senate and the Presidency in 1912, and the plan from Jekyl Island never came to a Congressional vote. The Federal Reserve Act Time for step number two had come. The bankers decided that the Republicans were not going to be able to get the plan through, so they turned to the Democrats. The fact that the Democrat plan would be basically the same as the Republicans’ recent Aldrich Plan didn’t seem to matter as long as it wasn’t called by the same name (Isa. 5:20). What the bankers needed was a good Democrat figurehead to carry the plan for them. Republican President William Howard Taft would probably have been reelected in 1912, but then Theodore Roosevelt jumped into the Presidential race as a third party candidate. Having already served as a Republican President from 1901 through 1908, he naturally drew a large amount of votes from Taft, thus dividing the party votes and allowing the Democratic candidate to win the election. That Democrat was Woodrow Wilson. The following year the big bankers got their way. Two planks of Marx’s Communist Manifesto were installed in America by the establishment of the Federal Reserve System and the income tax. Both were promoted by Senator Aldrich. The Federal Reserve System was designed to give the appearance of being a system of regional banks rather than a central bank, but it is the Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors, not the regional banks, who control the Jekyl Island Monster, and it is the world bankers who control the Board of Governors. The Secrets of the Federal Reserve by Eustace Mullins is one of the best documented works available on the subject at hand. Mullins not only exposes the Federal Reserve System as being a secret, privately owned, central bank, he also quotes from those who were bitterly opposed to the plan. One such opponent was Congressman Charles Lindberg, Sr. On the very day that Congress rushed the Federal Reserve Act through legislation (catching many legislators off guard just before the Christmas break, which was against traditional practice), Congressman Lindbergh said, "This Act establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President signs this bill (he did the following day), the invisible government by the monetary power will be legalized. The people may not know it immediately, but the day of reckoning is only a few years removed (it came in 1929’s stock market crash) . . . The greatest crime in Congress is its currency system. The worst legislation crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking bill." (parenthesis added) Commenting on the events of that same day, Mr. Mullins writes:"History proved that on that day the Constitution ceased to be the governing covenant of the American people, and our liberties were handed over to a small group of international bankers." (please read that a few more times) Indeed, the Constitution did cease to exist, or at least in any practical sense, because the legislators simply ignored the fact that it authorizes only Congress “to coin money” and to “regulate the value thereof.” Congress is not authorized by the Constitution to delegate this authority to anyone else, yet they did so on December 22, 1913, and President Wilson signed it into law the next day. If one should doubt the real intentions of the Federal Reserve’s founders, he only has to take a look at its first Board of Governors. President Wilson claimed that he was allowed to appoint only one board member, while the others were chosen by the New York Bankers. Of the seven members, Wilson appointed a Princeton trustee and businessman, Thomas J. Jones. One man appointed by the bankers was Adolph C. Miller, an economist from the Rockefeller-funded University of Chicago and J. P. Morgan-funded Harvard University. F. A. Delano was appointed. He was a relative of Franklin D. Roosevelt who had taken over a number of railroads for Warburg’s Kuhn, Loeb and Company. Paul Warburg was also appointed to sit on the board (Why not, since he drew up the plan?). Secretary of Treasury William McAdoo was appointed to the board. He was president of the Hudson-Manhattan Railroad, a Kuhn, Loeb Company. He was also President Wilson’s son-in-law. With such insiders running the nation’s central bank, one can easily see how the world bankers and super rich industrialists, rather than the American people, would become the true beneficiaries of the new "system" (code language for "privately owned central bank.") The Enslavement of the American Economy Throughout the 1920’s, Congressman Louis McFadden chaired the House Committee on Banking and Currency. It was his opinion that"When the Federal Reserve Act was passed, the people of these United States did not perceive that a world banking system was being set up here . . . A super-state controlled by the international bankers and international industrialists acting together to enslave the world for their own pleasure." While the Federal Reserve System was in the making, Nation Magazine pointed out the attempts of the insiders to keep its true character a secret: "The name of Central Bank is carefully avoided, but the ‘Federal Reserve Association,’ the name given to the proposed central organization, is endowed with the powers and responsibilities of a European central bank." When the monster from Jekyl Island took control of our country’s money, the national debt was only about one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000). Today it is over 32 trillion dollars ($32,000,000,000,000). That is, our national debt is over 32,000 times greater today than it was only a century ago. No American President since that time has seriously faced this growing problem. It is considered normal in national politics to run a “deficit” (spend MORE than the Government takes in), and it is considered good for a President to “balance the budget” (spend ONLY what is taken in). Very few even mention the national debt anymore, much less paying it off. The international bankers rake in billions of American dollars every year in interest payments alone while the national debt grows larger and the American people become more enslaved to “the system” (Pro. 22:7). Couple this with the fact that our government leaders have been practicing Keynesian economics for the past ninety years (government needs to "stimulate" and regulate the economy, even if it means sinking the nation further into debt ), and it isn’t hard to see that a day of reckoning is coming. This day of reckoning will make the 1929 stock market crash look like a fender bender at Wal-Mart. There will be a far greater depression than the one of the 1930’s. In fact, the next crash may usher in the Great Tribulation and the one-world economy of the Antichrist (Mat. 24:21; Rev. 13), since America is the predominant world power and the Federal Reserve is a world lender. It was none other than Mayer Amschel Rothschild who once said, “Give me control of a nation’s money, and I care not who makes her laws.” The only cure for the coming disaster (or, as Larry Burkett called it, The Coming Economic Earthquake), is for Congress to declare the entire Federal Reserve System unconstitutional, dissolve it, and then start paying off our national debt. That, of course, is not going to happen, regardless of who wins the November popularity contest. Since the days of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Federal Reserve has been further empowered, and there is no indication in sight that its power will ever be diminished. The Jekyl Island Monster will remain in control, and it will assist in ushering in Satan’s new world order. Consequently, the one dollar “Federal Reserve Note” is nicely decorated with a number of Satanic and pagan symbols, indicative of the devil’s coming reign of terror. Instead of looking for things to get better in the good ole' USA, you'd better start looking UP (Luke 21.28). ". . . Even so, come, Lord Jesus" (Rev. 22:20).
