Auxiliary

adjective: auxiliary
1. providing supplementary or additional help and support.
"an auxiliary nurse"
synonyms: additional, supplementary, supplemental, extra, spare, reserve, backup, emergency, fallback... "an auxiliary power source", ancillary, assistant, support, "auxiliary staff"

noun: auxiliary; plural noun: auxiliaries
1. a person or thing providing supplementary or additional help and support. "a nursing auxiliary".

From one point of view His Church is not an auxiliary and from another it is. Friends of His Church is an auxiliary more so than His Church.

I say this because there are rules that apply to auxiliary that would not apply to His Church from the IRS's point of view concerning auxiliaries so I have moved away from using the word to describe His Church and use the word Altar.

  • "The term integrated auxiliary of a church refers to a class of organizations that are related to a church or convention or association of churches, but are not such organizations themselves. In general, the IRS will treat an organization that meets the following three requirements as an integrated auxiliary of a church. The organization must:"
  • "Be described both as an Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3) organization and be a public charity under Code section 509(a)(1), (2), or (3),
  • Be affiliated with a church or convention or association of churches, and
  • Receive financial support primarily from internal church sources as opposed to public or governmental sources."

"Men's and women's organizations, seminaries, mission societies and youth groups that satisfy the first two requirements above are considered integrated auxiliaries whether or not they meet the internal support requirement."[1]

These exceptions are further described in DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY, Internal Revenue Service, 26 CFR Part 1, TD 8640 RIN 1545-AI52


Everything other than His Holy Church which consists of qualified ordained ministers "called out" for the purposes of Christ and His doctrines and ordinances may be classified by alternate descriptions in their capacity and relationship with the Church:
"A church, an interchurch organization of local units of a church, a convention or association of churches, or an integrated auxiliary of a church" are terms related to the Church but often defined differently.

See �1.6033-2(h) regarding the definition of integrated auxiliary of a church;
(h) Integrated auxiliary --(1) In general. For purposes of this title, the term integrated auxiliary of a church means an organization that is--

    • (i) Described both in sections 501(c)(3) and 509(a)(1), (2), or (3);
    • (ii) Affiliated with a church or a convention or association of churches; and
    • (iii) Internally supported.

I often refer to His Church as an Altar but in truth many of these altars are what was called Nethinims or public servants of the Living Stones of the Sacred Altars of God.

If an such and altar is a gathering of stones as the we show in the book Thy Kingdom Comes then an Order of the Church, which is the Church is a gathering of ordained ministers, bond servants but also friends of Christ.

  • John 15:15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

His Church is the minister and should be an ordained minister. But that cannot always be and so we need others to serve in a capacity of ordained minister without being ordained.

Some of the common elements of the Kingdom that separate the Church and the world.

  1. We are servants and not rulers.
  2. We operate on pure charity not force.

So terms like "A church, an interchurch organization of local units of a church, a convention or association of churches, or an integrated auxiliary of a church" do not fall under attempts to redefine words like auxiliary.

His Church and His Holy Church are Ministers of a minister of Christ but Christ came to serve so the minister, meaning servant, serves those who serve Christ. The directive and mission is to see who can out serve the other rather than the spirit of Cain which is to rule one over the other.

We often have a finite view of the past based on our view of the present. Israel was an all voluntary government with no kings or rulers and the rights of the individual was maintained by the decentralized exercise of responsibility.

The power of the state was in the hands of the people individually rather than collectively. This type of government will only work for the virtuous. Yet, there was a clear separation of Church and state. The Church in the wilderness belonged to God and yet performed a service to the people and society in general.

What passed to the Church was freely given up entirely in hope that it would come back when needed. Church and state were separate jurisdictions and the diligent of the people and their ministers kept the system uncorrupted.

To alter this balance will lead to corruption. If the Church were to exercise power over the people it would become corrupt like the Pharisees. But if the people formed a collective state and took power of the Church there would be corruption too.

If remember that the mission of the Church was Pure Religion which takes care of the needy by charity alone unspotted or unsupported by the collective or constitutional order or system of the state, then any attempt to make the welfare of the people exclusive to the state or attempt to prohibit the Church in the performance of its duty would be a violation of religious freedom.

How did the Levites, serving the congregations of the people, serve the people and their individual welfare according to God's plan?

We know they, the Church in the wilderness, received free will offerings that were burnt up to the people. Those who have read Adventures of Artifice in Languageland[2] and Corban[3] know what the altars really were and how the community was served by them in a righteous way taught by John the Baptist and Christ.

Christian relied on the system connected with their Baptism and the Ministers of His Holy Church just as those Ministers relied on the Elders of Congregations.

If we look at the past do we get a glimpse of the plan?

  • Ezra 2:70 So the priests, and the Levites, and [some] of the people, and the singers, and the porters, and the Nethinims, dwelt in their cities, and all Israel in their cities.

Nethinims is from the word nathan which is a gift or to give. They say they were "slaves or servants" assigned to the Levites and priests for service in the sanctuary.

Ministers who are not ordained are slaves in another system so they are not really Nethinims except when they act ex officio. The rest of the time they serve another master.

Porters are gatekeepers may also served like tellers distributing funds according to the directives of the Levites.

Singers were messengers and carriers and actually comes from a word meaning traveler.

His Church is part of the elements of the altar of His Holy Church but has more direct choices over the funds each minister receives because of the mandate to not exercise authority one over the other and yet be Benefactors.

Trustees of Friends of His Church do not have as much choice. They are more gatekeepers making sure that funds go to the right place.

None of these institutions of the Church should fall under any new definition of an auxiliary because they are all voluntary positions operating by charity.
