The Election to Give is the Eucharist of Christ
The daily free election to grant a visible offering to God in love of your neighbor207 to a minister chosen as a representative of Christ is a sacred purpose trust which is the Eucharist of Christ. That offering is not a fee or poll tax208 but a freewill offering of any amount to express the measure and “substance” of our faith and trust in the ability of the minister to do God’s service to a congregation.
Anything given for His prescribed purposes are counted as given to Him. Making an offering has been one of the earliest forms of expressing our relationships with God. Those original “burnt offerings” were actually gifts freely given up entirely into the control of other unregulated men.
Once the substance of an offering is freely given by two or more witnesses and the duty of trust is accepted by the minister of that offering, an ordained minister of Christ’s Holy Church bears witness to the truth of this sacrifice and acceptance, documenting it before the world. No other agency of man may abridge that solemnized covenant and agreement without usurping the Spirit and Truth of Christ.
John 8:32, 36 “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free... If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”
The people choose, in a consensus of a daily election of support and free sacrifice, to freely give.209 The church is not a democracy where the majority may rule over the minority. The body of the congregation is not an incorporation under men, but a free and foreign society established by a fellowship of faith and charity of a free people under God. Our social compact is written daily in our hearts and minds, in our actions and deeds. We are the authors of our own participation in self government as God is the author of the law of our hearts and our minds.

208A poll tax is a tax of a uniform, fixed amount per individual

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.
