Benefactors

The word Benefactor appears once in the Bible and is translated from the Greek word euergetēs (εὐεργέτης)

The word is defined first as benefactor. Benefactor ben·e·fac·tor ˈbenəˌfaktər, noun
plural: benefactors
Benefactor is defined as:

1. a person who gives money or other help to a person or cause.

synonyms: patron, from the Latin Patri Father

The Blueletter Bible Website gives a second definition of "a title of honour, conferred on such as had done their country service, and upon princes, equivalent to Soter, Pater Patriae".

A "Pater Patriae" is the father of a country. We see Jesus using the word we see as benefactor in relationship to the governments of the other nations who force the contributions of the people to provide the daily bread offered through their welfare like Corban or in Rome called Qorban offered through the government Temples.

Christ said that his followers should not be that way because it was not The Way of God. It was not a righteous, but a covetous way.

"And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth." Luke 22:25-27

The predominant form of free governments throughout history has been self disciplined networks of caring people of honor based on 10s, 100s, 1000s.

This was a primary instruction by Christ to His apostles when He appointed them a kingdom and established His Church.

"And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;" Luke 22:29

This is what He said He would do. He told the Pharisees that he would take the kingdom away from them^[1] because they were not bearing fruit and would give it to another. That other was His little flock. ^[2] The same reference to governments that exercise authority one over the other is found in:

Matthew 20:25 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

And

Mark 10:42 But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.

All these direct statements and instruction from Jesus include the admonition that "But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;"

The early Church had to take care of the Daily ministration to the needy and feed the flock of Jesus Christ often by sharing free bread from house to house. The benefit of that bread was not the result of forced offerings by men who exercise authority like Caesar and the Corban of the Pharisees, but the Fervent Charity of early Christians.

Acts 2:46 "And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart."

Anyone who got the Baptism of the Apostles instead of the Baptism of Herod were cast out of the system of social welfare run through the temples of the World.

John 9:22 "These [words] spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue."

At Pentecost thousands and thousands of Jews opted out of the social welfare system set up by Herod and the Pharisees and opted into the social welfare system of Christ which provided for the people in a Daily ministration of mutual Charity.

Christ's system operated by charity and love and the perfect law of liberty while the welfare system of Herod's and the Pharisees operated by forcing its members to pay into through a system of taxation. That system was making the word of God to none effect.

These Apostles and a network of ministers that came together in the upper room and organized the people in the ancient pattern of 10, hundreds and thousands on Pentecost were to feed his sheep and love one another in real ways of righteous social justice based on mutual love and honor.

They would have to take care of the social welfare of the people through faith, hope and charity and that illusive Perfect law of liberty because they would not be a part of the covetous social welfare system set up by Herod and other countries like Rome.

Christians would not apply for the free Bread and circuses of Rome. This is why there was a Christian conflict between the truly faithful and the Roman government.

Modern Christians are daily doing contrary to the direct instructions of Christ. They deny the power of His appointment and seek the benefits of these men who call themselves benefactors but really just take from your neighbor to provide you with benefits. This is Biting one another for personal gain and benefit which has caused them to be devoured. When they Cry out God will not hear them. They are truly Snared and made a Surety for debt.

They even take from the future of your children and neighbor's children because they borrow form their future cursing them with that same debt through their Covetous Practices.

We even make our own selves merchandise through this covetousness.

We are again entangled in the Elements of the World because we do not have the love to practice Pure Religion imagining that the phrase Ye are bought refers to us. Christ did that ye might be saved. But you must truly Repent and seek His ways of righteousness.

Or want to help others:

The Slothful

Those who just want to complain and point fingers should know that the Slothful shall be under tribute and should be.

A lot of people think the phrase "Taxation without representation" is in the declaration of independence.

Not so.

They were complaining about "taxation without consent".

Consent was not collective for America was not yet a democracy. Most of the colonies were talking about being a republic. The word republic did not mean an indirect democracy but a society of freemen owning their own land and untaxed by all the "World". This meant they had to care for one another by free choice and freewill offerings.

How do they get consent? Contract.

But that contract may be constructive. Plutarch warned us and Polybius wrote about it even before John the Baptist and Peter.^[3] and James ^[4]

You have to apply for benefits or protection from your liege, to your conscripted Fathers.

It is to him you owe your allegiance. A liege is "concerned with or relating to the relationship between a feudal superior and a vassal."

These covetous applications for benefits and advantage from someone who Exercises authority to be a benefactor to you diminishes your rights or at least the access to them and increases the power and authority of your liege.

This is why Paul, James, Jesus, Moses and the Ten Commandments told you not to make either application nor contract with these men who call themselves benefactors but exercise authority one over the other.

Because to desire their benefits is to covet your neighbor's goods.

These systems were called Corban. Corban in history was either dependent on free will offerings through what we call charity or forced offering from those who contract with the rulers who call themselves benefactors but only redistribute wealth by taking from the people by law, by the law of contract and consent.

The same principle of not electing rulers who can exercise authority one over the other is expressed by Jesus' command to his called out ministers in Luke 22:25:

"And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. But ye shall not be so:"

The early church would not apply to benefactors who exercised authority. They were even persecuted for not signing up for the benefits offered by those leaders who called themselves benefactors but exercised authority one over the other. But the modern Church not only says it is okay they encourage it.

2 Peter 2:1 tells us:

"...false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction."

The Greek word for "damnable" and "destruction" is the same.

Another man years later signing an extension to the benefits for those who have signed up for a scheme of Corban that makes the word of God to none effect.

What people often do not realize is that once you sign up with these so called benefactors they are able to sign for you because they exercise authority one over the other. Their sin is now your sin because you have made a contract with them.

Your liberty, your right to choose, diminishes as you take away the liberty of your neighbor. Because you covet your neighbor's goods you become a surety for debt, literally merchandise, human resources to be used by others for their purposes like 1 Samuel warned in chapter 8 and God will not hear you when you cry for help unless you repent.

You cannot just Withdraw consent if there is debt.

Almost all the problems of the world today are connected to this simple disregard for the instructions of Christ about coveting your neighbors goods through men who exercise authority as if they were a benefactor.

It is time to repent and come together in the spirit of Christ according to His ways like the early Church.
