Greek, Latin and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS... The Kingdom of God is from generation to generation. In Matthew 21:43 Jesus said he would take it from those who sat in the seat of Moses and give it to those who would bear fruit. He appointed that kingdom to his called out little flock who connected the people in a Living Network of Tens through charity, rightly dividing the bread from house to house. The kingdom of God is for the living, not the dead.[1] If you seek it and the righteousness of God you would need nothing from any other rulers of the world.

Abraham, Moses and Jesus all created living networks of people bound only by love through charity in hope of salvation.

That Network commanded by Christ consisted of small groups of ten families in free assemblies which were linked and organized by the individual exercise of free choices required to maintain a daily ministration of the people, by the people, and for the people through charity and love instead of the ways of the world which often include force and other covetous practices. This was called The Way.

It was the one thing the Jesus Commanded His disciples to make the people do.

There are numerous Email groups that form an electronic Network but that is not the Kingdom of God which we were told to seek.

The email Network's purpose is to help people gather in Congregations of Record where each individual may sit down together with others in free assemblies and choose to learn to love one another as Christ loved us like the early Church.

The Living Network is only those CORE groups ten families that have begun a personal spiritual and physical journey by gathering together in those free assemblies where they may begin Seeking the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.

This path or way may bring people face to face with their own hearts and minds in their striving and seeking so that they may continue to Repent in humility of the covetousness and selfishness and sloth that brought them into bondage from the beginning.

The Living Network is a place where you can ask yourself and others:

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."[2]
They had a form of godliness but denied the power thereof.

Where is your religion

  • 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.[3]

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?

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.

The Web

The Internet is an amazing technological tool that can be used for education, research and communication. Like any tool it can be used for good or evil purposes. Choice, as always, originates in the hearts and minds of individuals.

The power of the internet to direct social change has been extensive. For large sections of society it has become a media source and, by controlling the flow of information to the people, you can clearly control the people themselves. What they think is manipulated by what they see and hear on the internet. This has often led to false information being accepted as if it was true because... "I saw it on the internet." That power of digital control and manipulation of the flow of information, whether true or false, has lead to a media madness.

Social media platforms and their manipulation of content by big tech are creating a shift in the power of ideas, facts, and opinions. E-commerce is also being controlled by small groups and individuals who are programing what is bought and sold.

Billionaires have been made through the commerce which has become dependent upon the internet. Many small and local business have succumbed to this shift in power of commerce and the people have become increasingly dependent upon the power of the internet. Power corrupts. Technology is king and the king can be corrupted.

People who step back just a little bit out of the seductive nature of the influence of the controlling powers of the internet see the manipulation and influence of big tech. But were they corrupt from the beginning or were they corrupted by the power they created?

Parler, Gab, MeWe, Rumble and many others gain momentum as alternate social media platforms but they are all still part of the web and are trying to curtail or program their way around the influence within the net itself.

There is an honest claim that governments and 'Big Tech' working together are using the web to spy on, control, and manipulate information and, therefore, the thinking of the people.

In commerce, there are people using the internet to encourage and aid people to find alternative markets and ways of making exchanges for anything from barter and trade to Bitcoin. Blockchain technologies like Qortal with Jason Crowe[4] are innovating, developing, and offering seemingly secure decentralized networks of exchange on the the internet. Some of these projects can also be used to communicate with some appearance of security. But can anything be secure once it enters the web? We should always remember that dependence upon the internet is still within the power of The Web.

Just like the poem of the The Spider and the Fly, we should not be flattered and lulled into a false sense of safety when it comes to anything on the internet.

There are already laws on the books that you cannot make a communications code that the government cannot crack. We need to be as wise as the serpant but as harmless as doves.

You need to create a living network that is independent of the web. That does not mean that we cannot use some of these technologies. But it does mean that we must think beyond them with a more masterful plan that has proven itself in the past.

Before there was fake news there was fake education. Decades ago, the histories children were being taught in public school were being altered by both omission and alteration.

Free societies have always included flesh and blood networks that provided the sinew and spirit of society. Modern society, to some, seems to have become a nation of zombies wandering about biting one another, moving to every sound coming from the electronic media.

You cannot trust any electronic media because many of the images are simply not real nor alive. They are soulless representations of real life which is only experienced up close and personal, something that is forbidden in this new world of masks and social distancing. Today, the people are becoming dry bones in a valley of death.

We have started a network opportunity on The Web based on your location for the purpose of creating a network of small interconnected groups that are not dependent on the web and, by its nature and purpose, may allow the building of social trust and social virtues in an Intentional community.

Because of the caring purpose and voluntary nature of the living network, it will be able to filter out those who should not be trusted. Yes, it may begin for some on the world wide web. But it should, through human contact and real living connections renewed through voluntarism and local community care, build a 'living network' independent of the Internet and what is often metaphorically called THE WEB.

Do not imagine that things and tactics of the world will remain the same. There is a spirit of force and control among the principalities in high places. Their reset is real but it is not The Greatest Reset. Their New Deal is not that new. Nor is it righteous. Evil is overcome by true righteousness as Darkness is destroyed by the light.

The answer to the efforts of the Cains, Nimrods, Pharaohs and Caesars of the world has always included a network of faith and charity rather than force, fear, and fealty. It has always include the flesh and blood of souls in a natural living network of love.



The Spider and the Fly

"Will you walk into my parlour?" said a spider to a fly;
" 'Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy.
The way into my parlour is up a winding stair,
And I have many pretty things to shew when you are there."
"Oh no, no!" said the little fly, "to ask me is in vain,
For who goes up your winding stair can ne'er come down again."

"I'm sure you must be weary, with soaring up so high,
Will you rest upon my little bed?" said the spider to the fly.
"There are pretty curtains drawn around, the sheets are fine and thin;
And if you like to rest awhile, I'll snugly tuck you in."
"Oh no, no!" said the little fly, "for I've often heard it said,
They never, never wake again, who sleep upon your bed!"

Said the cunning spider to the fly, "Dear friend, what shall I do,
To prove the warm affection I've always felt for you?
I have, within my pantry, good store of all that's nice;
I'm sure you're very welcome—will you please to take a slice?"
"Oh no, no!" said the little fly, "kind sir, that cannot be,"
I've heard what's in your pantry, and I do not wish to see."

"Sweet creature!" said the spider, "you're witty and you're wise.
How handsome are your gauzy wings, how brilliant are your eyes!
I have a little looking-glass upon my parlour shelf,
If you'll step in one moment, dear, you shall behold yourself."
"I thank you, gentle sir," she said, "for what you're pleased to say,
And bidding you good morning now, I'll call another day."

The spider turned him round about, and went into his den,
For well he knew, the silly fly would soon come back again:
So he wove a subtle web, in a little corner, sly,
And set his table ready, to dine upon the fly.
Then he went out to his door again, and merrily did sing,
"Come hither, hither, pretty fly, with the pearl and silver wing;
Your robes are green and purple---there's a crest upon your head;
Your eyes are like the diamond bright, but mine are dull as lead."

Alas, alas! how very soon this silly little fly,
Hearing his wily, flattering words, came slowly flitting by;
With buzzing wings she hung aloft, then near and nearer drew,
Thinking only of her brilliant eyes, and green and purple hue:—
Thinking only of her crested head, poor foolish thing!—At last
Up jumped the cunning spider, and fiercely held her fast.

He dragged her up his winding stair, into his dismal den,
Within his little parlour—but she ne'er came out again!
—And now, dear little children, who may this story read,
To idle, silly, flattering words, I pray you ne'er give heed:
Unto an evil counsellor, close heart, and ear, and eye,
And take a lesson from this tale, of the Spider and the Fly.

Poem by Mary Howitt. Originally published in 1829.
