The Kingdom of God

If you see a red hat on the Eiffel Tower it is a dead giveaway as to where your guide has brought you.

If someone offers to show you the way to the Kingdom of God how do you know that they actually know the way and are not blind guides, frauds or charlatans or even wolves in sheep's clothing?

How do you know if your professed guide to the Kingdom actually knows The Way to the Kingdom of God and are not taking you to the Kingdom of gods many?

The Kingdom of God is for the living^[2] and specifically for Christians who are those who follow The Way of Christ and Keep the Commandments because they Love Him.

Thinks the word Christian is defined as "a person who has received Christian baptism or is a believer in Jesus Christ and his teachings."^[3]	Believes Christian is defined "a person who believes in and follows Jesus Christ"^[4] keeping His Commandments.
Says Believe in Jesus but tells you that you do not have to do what He said.	Tells you to Repent, persevere, and seek to do what Christ said to do.^[5]
Does not provide a Daily ministration like the early Church but sends you to the Benefactors of the World for your welfare needs.	Does what the early Church did by providing for one another's welfare through fervent charity.
Believes in Socialism to help the needy of society and is a member of the Entitlement systems of the World and its Corban.	Believes in Charity only to help the needy of society and personally denounces membership with other Ministers to get the Benefits of the World.
Covets his neighbor's goods through Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other.	Strives to provide a Daily ministration based on Charity by daily Sacrifice to the Congregation he serves.
He comes to entertain and make the people feel good but does not Rebuke them when they covet their neighbor's goods.	Seeking and working diligently for a system of Welfare based on Charity alone which makes the word of God to effect through the Perfect law of liberty.
Though He might have been poor he has made himself rich off the offerings of the people or even his book sales	Though he might have been rich he will make himself poor giving up all Benefits of the Fathers of the earth because he is not of their World.^[6]
Tells the people that forgiveness takes place because you claim to accept Jesus.	Explains that forgiveness requires that you forgive, even forgiving the debt of a bankrupt society despite having been forced to pay in and instead going another way.
Tells the people to obey men who claim authority but does not tell you why your under their power even though Paul would not go under the power of any.^[7]	Helps the Congregation pursue what Jesus called the "weightier matters" so they may have a right to obey God rather than men. ^[8]
"Says" to repent but does not tell you what that means.	Tells you what you are to Repent of and why in hope you will follow The Way.
Tickles the ears of the people to make them feel good.	Encourages the people to do good and rebukes them in love when they are straying from Christ's directives.

People followed Abraham, Moses, John the Baptist and Jesus. The altars of clay and stone was a way to create the social bonds of free people. The levites led the Israelites. And the early Church followed Christ and *His Way*, which was The Way, and advocated a Daily ministration that was dependent on Pure Religion through Fervent charity only. This was the Corban of Christ which was not like the system of Corban of the Pharisees nor of Rome or the systems of FDR and LBJ.
The church lost "the way" when it abandoned the practice of "pure Religion" while claiming to be the Church established by Christ. The people developed an appetite for the "wages of unrighteousness" from "public religion" in the days of Constantine. Those new Christians that often failed to fully repent degenerated the moral character of society with the masses of "instant christians".
That new religion of the emperor introduced a new faith with his apostate church replacing the doctrine of Jesus with the "doctrines of men", the Holy Spirit with emotion, the truth with the speaking of "great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage."^[9]
They had a form of godliness but denied the power thereof.

Where is your religion

Where do you find the Daily ministration of the early Church, the Pure Religion of James and the Corban of Jesus?

Are you following The Blessed Strategy of Christ like the Early Christians?

Are you following The Way through Love of one another or the way of the world and the Fathers of the earth?

Do you seek the benefits of bankrupt nations, or do you forgive and seek the benefits of Christ's appointed Kingdom?

Do you only gather for the comfort it gives you, or do you gather to benefit others?

Christ came to serve, not be served. Do you desire to be served, or are you coming in His name and according to His character to serve others?

If we desire His Grace but we only love those who love us, then there is no Grace because it is clear we do not really believe in Him.

If we do not Repent of our Covetous Practices and are not diligently gathering together in Free Assemblies of Love for all to provide for one another in Charity according to the Perfect law of liberty then we have nothing according to Paul. According to Luke 6:32 if we only love those who love us there is no "Grace". Christ also said if you do not Forgive neither will the Father forgive you.^[10]

It is not enough to hate the deeds of the workers of iniquity, but we must return to Thy first love and thy first work. To break the yoke, we need to return to the ways of righteousness spoken of in Isaiah 58 which are the ways of Christ and the early Church. And His yoke is light for it is carried by our love of one another.

Abraham, Moses, John the Baptist and Christ all created Networks of charity to care for the true needy of society without force which is how they were able to help set people free. Do you gather with His Church to attend to the Weightier matters as Christ said?

Are you gathering in a Network of righteousness?

Do you come to love others or just be loved?

Are your Congregations' gatherings fruitful enough so that no one has to pray to Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other?

Does anyone in your Free Assemblies have to apply to the Fathers of the earth, or seek their many benefits?

Early Christians found themselves in conflict with these systems of social welfare because they made the word of God to none effect. Christians had repented of their covetous nature when they received the Baptism of Christ. They heard and became Doers of the word not hearers only.

Remember Proverbs 12:24, "The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the Slothful shall be under Tribute."

We know that liberty under God is not for the covetous who are Biting one another but it is also not for the slothful. If we are not congregating together in free assemblies bound together in a broad network by faith, hope, and charity alone according to the perfect law of liberty then we are not truly seeking the Kingdom of God nor His righteousness.
