What is Allodial Title?

What is Allodial Title?

Allodial title refers to the absolute ownership of real property (land, buildings, and fixtures) that is free from any superior landlord. This means the property owner has complete control over their land without any obligations to a higher authority, such as paying rent or acknowledging a feudal superior. It is a concept rooted in the idea of land ownership by occupancy and defense of the land.


  • Psalm 24:1: "The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it."

  • This verse underscores the belief that ultimately, all land and creation belong to God.


Why Allodial Title is Rare in America

In the United States, allodial title is extremely rare. The primary reason is that most land in America is subject to some form of government regulation, taxation, or legal obligation. When you purchase land in the U.S., you typically receive a "fee simple" title, which grants you ownership but still subjects the property to government regulations, property taxes, and potential eminent domain.


  • Psalm 115:16: "The highest heavens belong to the Lord, but the earth he has given to mankind."

  • This verse clearly shows God gave us this Land. Also "We The People" are not under rule of a King, but The People Rule over the King AKA President. So why do you have to pay them rent AKA taxes for "Your" Land you paid for? I thought Kings were a thing of the past, not in our present day.


Can You Get an Allodial Title in America?

While it is theoretically possible to obtain an allodial title in the U.S., it is highly unlikely. The process would involve proving that the land has never been subject to any form of government control or taxation, which is nearly impossible given the history of land ownership in the country. Additionally, even if you were to obtain an allodial title, it would be subject to legal challenges and potential changes in legislation.


Why We Cannot Own Land in America?

The concept of owning land in America is different from owning land in a place with allodial title. In the U.S., land ownership is subject to various legal and regulatory frameworks that ensure the land is used responsibly and contributes to the public good. This includes paying property taxes, adhering to zoning laws, and being subject to eminent domain if the government needs the land for public use.


While private individuals and corporations own a significant portion of land in the U.S., this ownership is always subject to government oversight and regulation. This ensures that land is used in a way that benefits society as a whole, rather than being held in a way that could potentially harm the public interest.


Conclusion

Allodial title represents the ultimate form of land ownership, free from any obligations to a superior authority. However, in the United States, this form of ownership is virtually non-existent due to the extensive legal and regulatory frameworks governing land use and ownership. While owning land in America provides many rights and privileges, it also comes with responsibilities and obligations to the government and society.


What is Allodial Title?

In our journey through life, we often seek guidance and wisdom beyond our own understanding. St. Mykul’s prayer is a beautiful expression of this desire, a heartfelt plea for divine intervention and alignment with Jehovah’s will. It serves as a reminder of the profound connection we can cultivate with the divine, allowing us to become vessels of His wisdom and love.


St. Mykul’s prayer:

“I pray for Jehovah to speak through me all the time, and I pray for Jehovah to remove all my thoughts, and implant His thoughts all the time, as I do not even want my thoughts.”


Saint Michael Archangel
