[[Image:Fract10s-100sc.jpg|148px|right|thumb|link=The Living Network|The predominant form of government throughout history has been based on voluntary systems like the [[Tens|tens, hundreds, and thousands]].]]
[[File:Weaving.jpg|left|thumb|Weaving the Network]]
Israel and the early Church formed voluntary networks in a pattern of [[Tens]] for the purposes of God which was the purpose of Christ.


How did it it work and function?
The kingdom of Israel and the [[Altars]] of Abraham and the early Church all formed a network of people who came together in [[Free Assemblies]] bound by a doctrine of [[love]] instead of control, [[charity]] instead of force, forgiveness instead of vengeance. It was a institution supported and funded by voluntary contributions which was an uncommon form of government in those days and these.


The [[Levites]] were set up by Moses who was inspired of God. Those original [[Levites]] were to be the priests or first born of a nation but there roll in service to God and the people could not compromise the liberty of the people.  
The Christian Church was a [[welfare]] network because "[[Religion]]" was not just what you thought about God or a supreme being but what you did. Your religious institutions were how you served or interacted with the needs of your community. This was why they built [[Temples]].  


A very clever method of networking was devised to accomplish this unique form of self government, The [[Levites]] owned property in common but did not have a personal estate because they belonged to God. They did not have an inheritance in the land like the free people of Israel. Israel was not so much a geographical location or political corporation but it was the place ''where God prevailed''. Israel like Christianity was a Way. In fact it was [[The Way]].
The difference between how pagan religions were functioning and the early Church would bring the [[Private welfare]] and [[Pure Religion]] of Christianity into [[Christian conflict|conflict]] with the [[Public religion]] of [[Rome]] and what had become the [[Imperial Cult of Rome]]. Because Christians saw the [[socialist]] state as [[Covetous Practices|covetous]] they were often persecuted for non participation.


The ministers appointed by Christ and Moses formed a unique ''political network''<Ref>'political' of or relating to the government or the public affairs of a country.</Ref> for a free government. That government was a pure republic. It was the government of a nation formed according to the pre-imperial Rome, Libera Res Publica, Free from things Public, consistently spoken of by Tacitas.<Ref>“Tacitus repeatedly contrasts the res publica under the emperors with the pre-Augustus libera res publica; and in the Germania 37, encountering the disasters which Germans inflicted upon the res publica Romanorum, he distinguishes between the old res publica, which he calls the populus Romanus, and the new res publica, which he calls ‘Caesar’. The old res publica hardly had the mixed constitution which dreamers assigned it and which actually never can exist, but it was something greater and majestic which lives on as a glorious memory in a mean age.”  The Ruling Power: A Study Of The Roman Empire In The Second Century After Christ Through The Roman Oration Of Aelius Aristides, James H. Oliver, Kessinger Publishing, LLC (July 25, 2006). ISBN-13: 978-1428659315.</Ref>
The [[Church legally defined]] is still considered "one form of government" but [[Modern Christians]] are not following the ways of the early Church. [[John the Baptist]] and Christ and [[Paul the Apostle|Paul]] said to live by [[charity]] and not by the [[benefits]] of [[Benefactors]] who exercised authority. Because a Christian is defined as a follower of Christ then it stands to reason that if your Church is not seeking to establish a [[welfare]] system that operates a [[Daily ministration]] through [[faith]], [[hope]] and [[charity]] and the [[Perfect law of liberty]] then it is not a Christian Church and if it is not trying to get to a point where it does this without [[benefits]] from an authoritarian [[world]] it is not practicing [[Pure Religion]].


In order to keep Israel a place where God prevailed the people need to remain free and independent of the government and the government of the [[Levites]] needed to remain separate instrument of service.


Jesus and Moses were in agreement and were applying the same principles that God intended for Israel and the Church, which were both institutions of the same God, for the same purpose. This was the kingdom of God which included two statuses.
== How Formed ==


One was the status that was enjoyed by every individual family where a husband and wife came together as one flesh in [[Marriage|Holy Matrimony]] as free souls under God passing their inheritance from generation to generation in what was called the [[Kingdom of God]].
* How did this government work?
 
* How did it organize itself?
The second status was that of the appointed minister of the [[Kingdom of God]]. Moses had appointed the [[Levites]] but Jesus, who was king and high priest, took the [[Kingdom of God]] from the [[Pharisees]] and appointed it to the [[Apostles]] so that they might bear fruit.
* How do we know if we are following the pattern?
 
These new ministers like the [[Levites]] before them ''owned all things in common'' with no [[Vow of poverty|personal estate and belonged to God]].


Both the Church and the [[Levites]] were to serve the people and feed the flock of God and both had to rely on [[Freewill offerings]] and [[Charity]] of the people. They could not force the [[sacrifice]]s of the people like other governments of the [[world]].


Neither group of [[ministers]] had any [[Exercises authority|exercising authority]] one over the other like other governments but their office was [[Titular]]. They were literally [[Breeches|naked of any authority]] over the people. They had authority over what they were freely given by the people but they had no authority to force the people to give.
The pattern of the [[Kingdom of God]] was [[Tens|Ten families]] gathering in [[Free Assemblies]] to worship God. [[Worship]]ping God was not ritualistic mumbo-jumbo and superstitious [[Sophistry|burning of animals on piles of dead stone]]. It was the practical [[Religion]] found in the ''"pious performance of our duty to God and our fellow man"''. It was the setting of the table of the Lord through the provision of a [[Daily ministration]] furnished through [[Faith]], [[Hope]] and [[Charity]] by the [[Perfect law of liberty]].


In this unique form of government the people remained in a state of freedom and the government remained representative but separate institution of service to the people.
There are two institutions of God.
* One is the natural institution of one man and one woman joined together to produce the fruit of the next generation, and
* the second institution of God was the Church in the wilderness and the Church appointed by Jesus Christ.
The Church was an appointed kingdom<Ref>Luke 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
: Luke 22:29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;</Ref> by the highest son of David who took the [[Kingdom of God]] from the Pharisees and appointed it to his apostles.<Ref>Matthew 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.</Ref>


Both the [[Levites]] and the [[Church]] were similar forms of government in that they served the people as Titular Leaders without exercising authority one over the other. Without any authority over the people they were both naked and need some form of covering. In the Old Testament this was symbolized but the metaphoric instruction that the people were to sew
When Judea denounced the ''rightful king''<Ref>Matthew 27:11  And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.
[[Breeches ]] for the [[Levites]] to cover their nakedness and that the  [[Levites]] were also not to go up by steps.
: Matthew 27:37  And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
: John 6:15  When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
: John 18:37  Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
: John 19:19  And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
</Ref> and chose Caesar as their king they were no longer God's government.<Ref>[[John 19]]:15 But they cried out, Away with [him], away with [him], crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.</Ref> From [[Pentecost]] the Apostles became His Church with no King but Jesus.<Ref>Acts 17:7 Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, [one] Jesus.</Ref>


Christ instructed the [[Apostles]] who He appointed as His ''called out assembly'', His [[ekklesia]], [[His Church]], to serve the kingdom but warned that they were not to be like the governments of the other nations who called themselves [[Benefactors]].
This challenges the thinking of those who would like to think they believe in ''Christ already'', following ''Christ already'' or that they are just ''Christians already'' because of what they think. But [[Repent]]ing is changing the way you think.  


They were not to "rule" one over the other but the one who was greater would be the greater servant. There were no "rulers" in the kingdom but each man was to be ruled in his own heart and mind, hopefully by God. This is the only pattern or form of a free government and was common among may people although seldom taught in the schools of the modern [[world]] system.
Christ said we were to be [[doers]] and if we were not that was evidence we did not really have faith or our faith was dead. Seeking the [[Kingdom of God]] and His righteousness is to seek that [[network]] of [[love]] and [[hope]], [[faith]] and [[forgive]]ness.


* How did this government work?
* What are the bonds of a family?
* How did it organize itself?
* How do we know if we are following the pattern?

Of course there are physical and emotional bonds. The real bonds of a family are sealed in the virtue of the family: Respect, consideration, helpfulness, kindness, joyfulness, love, generosity, compassion, perseverance, thoughtfulness, courtesy, trust and confidence are some virtues that can be integrated into the family values system.

Weaving the Network

The kingdom of Israel and the Altars of Abraham and the early Church all formed a network of people who came together in Free Assemblies bound by a doctrine of love instead of control, charity instead of force, forgiveness instead of vengeance. It was a institution supported and funded by voluntary contributions which was an uncommon form of government in those days and these.

The Christian Church was a welfare network because "Religion" was not just what you thought about God or a supreme being but what you did. Your religious institutions were how you served or interacted with the needs of your community. This was why they built Temples.

The difference between how pagan religions were functioning and the early Church would bring the Private welfare and Pure Religion of Christianity into conflict with the Public religion of Rome and what had become the Imperial Cult of Rome. Because Christians saw the socialist state as covetous they were often persecuted for non participation.

The Church legally defined is still considered "one form of government" but Modern Christians are not following the ways of the early Church. John the Baptist and Christ and Paul said to live by charity and not by the benefits of Benefactors who exercised authority. Because a Christian is defined as a follower of Christ then it stands to reason that if your Church is not seeking to establish a welfare system that operates a Daily ministration through faith, hope and charity and the Perfect law of liberty then it is not a Christian Church and if it is not trying to get to a point where it does this without benefits from an authoritarian world it is not practicing Pure Religion.


How Formed

  • How did this government work?
  • How did it organize itself?
  • How do we know if we are following the pattern?


The pattern of the Kingdom of God was Ten families gathering in Free Assemblies to worship God. Worshipping God was not ritualistic mumbo-jumbo and superstitious burning of animals on piles of dead stone. It was the practical Religion found in the "pious performance of our duty to God and our fellow man". It was the setting of the table of the Lord through the provision of a Daily ministration furnished through Faith, Hope and Charity by the Perfect law of liberty.

There are two institutions of God.

  • One is the natural institution of one man and one woman joined together to produce the fruit of the next generation, and
  • the second institution of God was the Church in the wilderness and the Church appointed by Jesus Christ.

The Church was an appointed kingdom[1] by the highest son of David who took the Kingdom of God from the Pharisees and appointed it to his apostles.[2]

When Judea denounced the rightful king[3] and chose Caesar as their king they were no longer God's government.[4] From Pentecost the Apostles became His Church with no King but Jesus.[5]

This challenges the thinking of those who would like to think they believe in Christ already, following Christ already or that they are just Christians already because of what they think. But Repenting is changing the way you think.

Christ said we were to be doers and if we were not that was evidence we did not really have faith or our faith was dead. Seeking the Kingdom of God and His righteousness is to seek that network of love and hope, faith and forgiveness.

  • What are the bonds of a family?

Of course there are physical and emotional bonds. The real bonds of a family are sealed in the virtue of the family: Respect, consideration, helpfulness, kindness, joyfulness, love, generosity, compassion, perseverance, thoughtfulness, courtesy, trust and confidence are some virtues that can be integrated into the family values system.

There are also Social Virtues but we should examine them with the idea of seeking the Kingdom of God in mind.

What things promote the bonds of the family and will be reflected in the bonds of the Kingdom of God?

  1. Schedule time together. Talk with each other with interest.
  2. Eat together reinforcing communication.
  3. Share responsibilities. House, work, pursuits of interests. “No one's work is done until everyone’s work is done." Share chores, gardening, husbandry, cleaning, preparing for events.
  4. Set a family mission statement. Create missions or goals for the family...projects.
  5. Have meetings. Informal at meals, prayer time but also formal discussions about mission or complaints or thoughts.
  6. Encourage support one for another. Share goals. Turn failures and fears around.
  7. Take time out. Arrange a private vacation. Give all time alone. Respect privacy.
  8. Volunteer together. Relieve each other's burdens. Learn important life lessons together to learn respect.
  9. Become involved in their lives. See things in their eyes. Empathy.
  10. Join with other families. Repeat 1 through 9 with other families.

They would be in principle the same.

The warp and the weft.

The Kingdom of God is not like other governments. It runs on social virtue rather than political vice. But it is a government and it has structure and form just like the human body. But it also allows remarkable flexibility and movement and local control of the functions of the whole body.

Once we get past some of the metaphor of the Old Testament and the Sophistry that leads to confusion the basics of the Gospel of the Kingdom and all the prophets begins to come together in a common-sense pattern that leads to liberty and freedom under the fruitful God of Creation.

The fabric of the kingdom is woven together.
