Studying this Material
The Free Church Report is supported by other materials published by the Church. Throughout The Free Church Report we will be repeating much of the same information and precepts. There are several reasons for this. One reason is because misconceptions, distortions, and even lies about the Gospel of the Kingdom - and what the Church should be - have been repeated for so many centuries. Therefore the repetition of the truth is called for, if not demanded.
There has been an effort by some over the centuries to hide the truth found in the precept upon precept of God’s way. People have been deceived, distracted from, and lost sight of far too many of these truths that should be written on their hearts and minds. The writing of the truth in the soul of each man and woman can only be done by the hand of God. The words of this book are meant only to bear witness to those truths.
Repetition also aids in the learning process, and to teach is a mission of the Church. We also desire to write each section of the book so that it may stand alone in its presentation to you and the world. Each section may reference additional information to expand our understanding and grasp of the precepts of God in every aspect of our life.
Finally, the sections of this book are covering these subjects of the Church and the Kingdom from numerous points of view. There are spiritual, moral, historical, practical, and legal aspects to consider in the formation of the free Church. All must be in conformity to Christ for the Church to put on the full armor of God.
The different perspectives and conclusions of this book will seem to shock some at the beginning. Others will not understand or reject the material simply because it does not agree with what they choose to believe. The material in this book should be read as a little child who is eager to examine new ideas and teachings. It is the Father we wish to understand and follow, and this material is only written to share the spirit of that Father in heaven who is the Creator of all.
There is a great deal more information in the books The Covenants of the gods, Thy Kingdom Comes and The Ministers Manual, along with dozens of Church documents and procedures for record authentication.
The Church
He came preaching “the Kingdom of God is at hand.” It was His gospel, the good news of His government. How does the Kingdom of God differ from other governments? What was this thing called the Church? How does the Church relate to this thing called the Kingdom of God? And why was it persecuted? What was the role or purpose of the Church and how does it relate to the people who are seeking the Kingdom? What should it look like, and what should it be doing to fulfill its mission?
There are thousands of opinions as to what the Church is and what it should be doing, but there is only one opinion that matters, that of the Man who appointed it. The Church was established by a man called Yahushua the Messiah, a.k.a. Jesus the Christ. Only He can define the purpose and nature of this thing called the Church. It is His creation, His appointed institution. It is His Holy Church.
It is up to each of us to strive and seek to find out what the Church is or is not. In this book we talk about the Free Church, in contradistinction to what is often appearing to be a church established by Christ. In fact, many churches have been established by other authorities that have developed an exercising authority by application to, and participation in, the governments of the world, and a failure to follow the directions of Christ. The Church may only be bound under that original appointment of Christ, under the perfect law of liberty. If a Church is bound under any other authority, it ceases being the Church established by Jesus Christ, His Church.
Simple and Complex
The message of the Gospel of the kingdom is as simple as love, but the relationships that it creates are as complex as life itself. The same is true in the formation and maintenance of the free Church. The simple and legal procedures have lawful ramifications that cover very complex relationships of individuals common among governing bodies. There are supporting publications, documents, letters, certifications, and continued ministerial assistance available that may clarify this unique status of the Church.
The Church is recognized among governments not because of its name or designation as a church, but because of the free and voluntary nature of these relationships based on faith, hope, and charity, and because of the unique separate status of the ordained ministers. These temporal relationships are not without a spiritual counterpart and effect. The virtue required to maintain the unique status of the Church should never be overlooked. Other systems may cause the word of God to have none effect.
The information contained in this material may often differ from what people might commonly have heard concerning the nature of the Church and the Gospel of Christ as it relates to the legal systems of the world. Very little is offered without extensive research and verification by scripture, the laws of the land, and other historical or academic resources. The limitation of space, as well as the comprehensive and controversial nature of the subject, requires that we leave some questions only partially answered in this book. The search for truth is a journey that includes pain and joy, patience and humility, prayer and fulfillment.
There is no intent to undermine the individual faith of any soul by disparaging or attacking any particular denomination or religious faith. The fundamental principles presented throughout this book are offered with the hope of drawing the people closer to Christ, stirring their hearts and minds to the alternative that the Church should offer to people as free souls under the dominion of God.
The kingdom of God is founded in the hearts of the free Congregation of the people who come together in fellowship and love seeking to know and do the will of the Father. Their minister is chosen and entrusted with an offering by the people through an election in consensus by the elders of each family unit.
The ordained minister of God, who has separated himself out of the world by dedicating himself to the mission and service of Jesus the Christ, mutually recognizes and accepts the submission to His Service, by and for the people. The precept of loving one another as Christ loved you is not limited within the congregation of the local Church. To share in the whole body of the Church it is essential that each congregation and Church care about other churches as much as they care about themselves.
Isaiah 28:10 “For precept [must be] upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, [and] there a little:”

The Free Church Report
The Free Church Report presents a unique path for the modern Church according to the nature of the first century Church by explaining the duty and purposes of that institution appointed by Christ. While Rome declined under runaway inflation, corrupt government, martial law, and endless threats of war, the Christians found an alternative to the men who “called themselves benefactors but exercised authority one over the other.”
The early Christian knew rights and responsibilities were indivisible. They sought the right to be ruled by God by taking back their responsibility, through the service of “called out” ministers who lived in the world, but were not of it. Their government benefits came through a divine network instituted in their hearts and minds by faith, hope, and charity under the perfect law of liberty as their Qorban of the unrighteous mammon failed the Roman society.
