Altars

In the Old Testament there were two types of altars mentioned as metaphors describing the structure of their society.

Each member or family of a congregation is an altar of earth. The congregations of ministers are altars of stone. All operate together in a network of charity so that a nation of believers might remain a peculiar people.

God sees the heart and mind of mankind, but the world often requires something more tangible as a evidence in witness. His Holy Church offers a system for the edification and protection of the free Church and congregation which may assist in the maintenance and nurturing of a free people under God.

A congregation of record seeking other congregations and coming together in a network of people seeking the wholeness and holiness of a righteous government need to manifest that oneness with Christ and the Father both in Spirit and in truth so that may live in the world but not of it.
