The Free Form of government

The Church is "one form of government" according to the legal definition of the Church but it is not like the governments of the world.

Every minister is the overseer of what he receives on behalf of Christ but connected by that common^[1] possessions of Christ in the Communion and Eucharist of its Daily ministration.

Once an individual is a recognized Minister of Record they may officially enlist assistance from others as assistant ministers of their office ex officio. The authorization to be an assistant minister should be in writing and may be temporary or ongoing, limited or extensive in hope of if not in preparation for being a minister of another congregation.

Even though they may not exercise authority one over the other they are joint heirs or what is also called co-heirs which by appointment through Christ makes them one body, the Church.^[2]

Again this is clarified in 1 Timothy 3^[3] for Ministers of 10 called Deacons^[4]

Liberty and the Ministers of God's kingdom are dependent upon the Charitable and Forgiving hearts of the people.

In the new testament, the word ministry almost always appears as diakonia ^[5], which often has to do with an administrative office of the Church appointed by Christ. But there is a distinctively different word that appears in the Greek text from decidedly different origin and usage that also appears as minister and ministry.

Twice we see the word leitourgia ^[6] from which we get the word liturgy translated ministry but it too means a public office.

The word ministry can be defined:

the work or vocation of a minister of religion: "he is training for the ministry" synonyms: holy orders, the priesthood, the cloth, the church
(in certain countries) a government department headed by a minister of state: "the Ministry of Agriculture"

From the point of view of Moses and Christ, both of these definitions apply to the ministers of the Church in the wilderness appointed by Moses and the Church appointed a kingdom by Christ.^[7] While both the Levites and the disciples were "called out" and taught to minister to the people, the Modern Christians do not require their ministers to be separate from what Jesus called the "world". In fact, they do not look to their Modern Church ministers for their daily bread, nor rightly divide that bread from house to house.^[8]

Instead, the modern Christians pray to the Fathers of the earth who are the Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other. They are in need of repentance.

Jesus did not appoint a Church, but appointed a kingdom to the Church, who were the "called out" ministers of that kingdom or government. Many governments of the world provide free bread, welfare and health care to the people, but they exercise authority over the people in order to provide those benefits. The Church ministries are to provide those benefits by faith, hope and charity and the perfect law of liberty. A ministry by itself is not the Church legally defined.

Moses and the prophets, John the Baptist and Jesus, Peter and Paul the Apostle all advocated freewill offerings and charity, rather than force, to obtain the benefits of society. This is the meaning of Pure Religion and repentance.

↑ Acts 2:44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; Acts 4:32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
↑ Plures cohaeredes sunt quasi unum corpus, propter unitatem juris quod habent. :: Several co-heirs are as one body, by reason of the unity of right which they possess. Co. Litt. 163.
Haeredem Deus facit, non homo. God and not man, make the heir.

Haeredem est nomen collectivum. Heir is a collective name.

Haeris est nomen juris, filius est nomen naturae. Heir is a term of law, son one of nature.

Haeres est aut jure proprietatis aut jure representationis. An heir is either by right of property or right of representation. 3 Co. 40.

Haeres est alter ispe, et filius est pars patris. An heir is another self, and a son is a part of the father.

Haeres est eadem persona cum antecessore. The heir is the same person with the ancestor. Co. Litt. 22.

Haeres haeredis mei est meus haeres. The heir of my heir is my heir.

Haeres legitimus est quem nuptiae demonstrant. He is the lawful heir whom the marriage demonstrates.
↑ 1 Timothy 3:1 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; 4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) 6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. 7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. 8 ¶ Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre; 9 Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. 10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless. 11 Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things. 12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. 13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
↑ Deacon: The word deacon means leader of ten. Leadership in the Church is by service. In the Greek the word diakonos means servant or Ministers. Minister is the Latin word for doer of little deeds. Minister is a generic term that includes all who serve others, whether deacon, bishop, archbishop or other.
