Dear Network


Site Introduction

When people first find either HisHolyChurch.org website or Preparingyou.com they may find the information a bit overwhelming. Joining the email Network groups is a good place to start. Their purpose is to help people find others who can receive the information we are sharing. Christ preached a way that sets men free. We were warned that we would be made merchandise and even curse our children. We were told that people would be again entangled in yoke of bondage[1] and the elements of the world which is like unto a return to the bondage of Egypt. People do not want to accept that fact because they are under a strong delusion.

The good news is that Christ showed us a way back to liberty under God which includes the Keys of the Kingdom. In fact, from Abraham to Moses, the prophets unto Jesus the Christ and the apostles and the early Church were all telling us how to avoid the mire of enslavement and become free souls under God.

"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect." Matthew 24:24

No one wants to think they have been decieved

Capitalism works best in a society where people love their neighbor as themselves, where the State is superfluous because the power of the State remains in the hands of the individual as God intended. The individual, as a natural inhabitant, can only remain free in a state of nature as long as he remains virtuous. Capitalism does not dictate virtue. Greed or charity remain a choice in a free society. Socialism always brings an end to virtue with the empowerment of the State because it is the stumblingblock of Balaam.
“If Virtue & Knowledge are diffused among the People, they will never be enslaved. This will be their great Security”[2] In a republic of noble and virtuous souls there are few affairs of the people that are not taken care of by the people for the people.

Beware of gifts

"Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?" Isaiah 40:21

There are gifts of God and man.


Plutarch said “The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations and benefits.”

But Proverbs 19:6 tells us the same thing, "Many will intreat the favour of the prince: and every man [is] a friend to him that giveth gifts."


Polybius said "The masses continue with an appetite for benefits and the habit of receiving them by way of a rule of force and violence. The people, having grown accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others... institute the rule of violence; and now uniting their forces massacre, banish, and plunder, until they degenerate again into perfect savages and find once more a master and monarch."

This rule of violence and plunder is the same we hear about in Matthew 11:12 "And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." and in Luke 16:16 "The law and the prophets [were] until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it." The Repentance associated with the act of Baptism was turning away from these Covetous systems of the Welfare of the World and going back to The Way of Fervent Charity with the Eucharist of Christ.

"He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live." Proverbs 15:27

The wages of unrighteousness offered by men brings the rights and liberty of man[3] given by God to nothing[4] and their right to judge to confusion.[5]

The gifts of God which set men free[6] come to those who will walk the Way of God.[7]

The Paul the Apostle wrote to a number of Early Christian communities in Galatia, "For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another." Galatians 5:13-15

When Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 8:9 "But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak." the word "liberty" is the same word exousia Paul uses in Romans 13.

The same word we see as power in Romans 13 is translated right in Hebrews 13:10[8] and Revelation 22:14.[9] and also in Revelation 18[10] concerning the fall of Babylon and the merchants of the earth who are the merchants of men who together with the kings of the earth have committed fornication. Rulers of the world of men not only have sought to take man's endowed dominion from him but have conspired to make all men take the Mark of the Beast which is a badge of servitude that makes them merchandise.

Have we lost that liberty granted by God by neglecting our natural and moral responsibility that is correlative to those God given rights?

Eyes full of adultery

Peter made it clear in 2 Peter 2:3, "And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not."

Peter not only warned us that desiring benefits at the expense of others would make us human resources what he calls merchandise but he warned us in 2 Peter 2:14 about those covetous practices entangling them back in the yoke of bondage and cursing our children:

"Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:" 2 Peter 2:14

He tells us that the debt of those Divers lust for the benefits of the world at the expense of others would curse our children.

David warned us in Psalms 69:22, "Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap."

And Paul reminded us again in Romans 11:9 that "... David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:"

This stumblingblock was that we would learn to eat at tables set with the bounty of the compelled sacrifices of institutions made by men who called themselves Benefactors that ruled over the people with and exercising authority and is explained in Revelation 2:14 "But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication."

Proverbs 23 warns us about the table of men who exercise authority one over the other "When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what [is] before thee: And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite. Be not desirous of his dainties: for they are deceitful meat."

If the ruler is your Benefactor he will only give you what he takes from others. To desire the Benefits is to Covet and that will change.

What are these benefits today?

Those benefits include everything from Public Schools to Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards which is an electronic system that allows state welfare departments to issue benefits via a magnetically encoded payment card, used in the United States and the United Kingdom like Rome did with their Tesserae of the Beast of Revelation?

Warned

We were told by God in Exodus 20:17 "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s."

Jesus warned us of the evil of covetousness and where it comes from in Mark 7:20-23, "...That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, and defile the man."

These are the things he called us to repent of in Matthew 4:17 when he first "... began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." and in Mark 1:15 when He said "... The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel." but warned us in Luke 13:3 that "... except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish."

He warned the ministers that systems of Corban like the one they created for their social welfare made the word of God to none effect.

Jesus told us not to look to Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other.

He told us not to pray to Fathers of the earth, but only our Father who is in Heaven.

He told us to keep the commandments including the one about not coveting anything that is our neighbors if we want Eternal life. And when 1 John 2 talked about the "propitiation for our sins", he reminded us that "... hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked."

Real Christians would not desire the benefits of men who call themselves Benefactors nor pray to the Fathers of the earth like Modern Christians do. They would be led to gather together in a living Network that provided a Daily ministration of Charity for one another according to the Perfect law of liberty. They would strive to keep His commandments by being Doers of His word in a Living Network of Love.

Israel in the Bondage of Egypt were literally employed by the Pharaoh who provided free bread like the Romans in the form of Public Welfare which was Public religion. They had to pay their tale of bricks to the Pharaoh but learn to glean in the field at night to obtain their benefits. This is why God hardened the heart of the Pharaoh during the plagues so they could learn The Way of God. So it was not enough to stop taking the benefits, but they needed to learn to provide them by faith, hope and charity through a system of Corban that made the word of God to effect.

Jesus said nothing different to the early Church. When he said give to Caesar what is Caesar and to God what is God's he was saying pay your tale of bricks. He even warned to be friends with the unrighteous Mammon explaining that it would fail. Those who cheat one master you will likely cheat the next.[11]

We are in bondage because of Covetous Practices and Slothfulness. We are devoured because we or our natural parents took bites out of one another in these Covetous Practices which made us a Surety for debt in an unrighteous Mammon... We must Repent and seek the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness.

Where and what is true Christian fellowship?
Where and what is the true Eucharist of Christ?
Where and what is the Living Network of the faithful?
Where and what is the Communion of Saints?
Where and how do the people practice Pure Religion?
Where and who are the people that attend to the Weightier matters?

In order to "deceive the whole world:" would take a lot of time and a clever plan. So who has been deceived? Christ warns, In order to find the truth we must always be willing to test all things and hold fast to that which is good.

"Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." 1 Thessalonians 5:21

https://youtu.be/i5rt_bGNSu4 The video brings attention to and demonstrates the use of two basic websites we offer for free to help people learn about the Gospel of the Kingdom. http://www.hisholychurch.org/ http://preparingyou.com/

The video also shows and introduce people how to become connected in a network like the one Jesus Christ commanded us to create for the people. And most important it encourages everyone to join the Living Network That means that people need to organize themselves as Christ commanded. http://preparingyou.com/wiki/Commanded

Numerous areas of the site are mentioned

http://www.hisholychurch.org/outline.php

http://preparingyou.com/wiki/Outline_of_site

The early Church organized in a network of intimate congregation to provide a daily ministration of faith, hope and charity http://preparingyou.com/wiki/Network

So that the Church could institute the Corban of Christ which sets you free so that no one had to depend upon the Corban of the world that made the word of God to none effect. http://preparingyou.com/wiki/Corban

It was able to do this through the exercise of pure religion and the establishment of a daily ministration of faith hope and charity rather than the force, fear, and fealty of the world.



Voting for morality

There are two things that worry me in the 2020 US election.

  • One, Biden might win.
  • Two, is that Trump might win with a landslide.

In both cases too many people are putting their faith in Democracy.

They think their political leaders will save them, fix things, change things for the better.

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." John Adams.

Neither your leaders nor your constitution can secure you rights and liberties. While freedom and liberty are presently under assault by avaricious mobs, ambitious politicians and an absurdly biased media the people have become so slothful and uncaring they will do little more than vote.

"Can the liberties of a nation be sure when we remove their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people, that these liberties are the gift of God?" asked Thomas Jefferson.

For almost a century or more the public school curricula and the institutions themselves have been moving away from the moral values and pure religion so common in early America. Even the churches today have strayed from the values of "pure religion" licensing the people to universally engage in covetous practices which has fed and nurtured the immoral mob which now seeks to devour and destroy.

The basic moral truths of equality that were once "self-evident" have been replaced with the vanity of victimhood.

The freedom to choose an abortion is hailed supreme while simultaneously denying parents’ freedom to choose the school or educational institution they see most fit to teach those morals and values which once aspired to greatness.

"If we’re going to have a self-governing nation, it must be occupied by self-governing citizens."[12]

There are two ways to govern. To govern others is to control, influence, or regulate a person or persons, their actions, or the course of events. To govern oneself is to conduct oneself, especially with regard to controlling one's emotions and actions.

The Kingdom of God requires that each individual seek the righteousness of God. We would have to love the nature of God who is a Creator and giver of life and would have to love others as much as ourselves. To do this Christ knew and commanded that we gather in patterns of tens and share our life with others as Christ shared His life with us. The early Church did just that but the Modern Church has lost sight of The Way.

If we will repent, think like Christ, and become doers of His word then every day is election day when we truly Seek the Kingdom of God.

Twinkling

We have numerous websites that we manage.

http://preparingyou.com/wiki/Websites

Even at that link the list is not complete. There is hardly a day that goes by without additional material added to one site or another. Unlike many people who share vaguely similar information everything is available for free.

Last night we saw our http://www.hisholychurch.net site failing to load. I notified the ministers the people have chosen and people are now working on the problem. Links to audio at that site may fail to load properly.

Many of our audio files are linked there. We do have them at other sites as well.

To build this vast source of information has been a life's work. To maintain it may be up to you.

It could all disappear in a twinkling of an eye but fear not if you have been truly seeking the kingdom of God and His righteousness.

1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

Are you sure you are the "we" spoken of by Paul?

Are you under the Strong Delusion that is found in the warnings of Christ and the apostles. Don't be the Dry bones and workers of iniquity.

Seeking that kingdom of God is not just seeking the fellowship of a local group nor depending on the wages of unrighteousness.

If you are not networking together like the early Church and like Christ commanded us to do in the pattern of the Tens then can you honestly claim to be seeking the kingdom?

Luke 10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly [is] great, but the labourers [are] few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.


What is His pla n

Coach Dave Daubenmire wrote:

"The courts are corrupt. Public education is socialist indoctrination. The media is laced with liars. Money rules in the halls of Congress. The government military complex is a money laundering operation. Pastors preach pabulum. The Pope is a commie. Secrecy in government affairs is repugnant. Truth has fallen in the streets. How can we possibly recover?"
"Take your eyes off of the government for a minute. Do YOU have a plan? Do you have a network of people with whom you can hunker down if things turn dark? Do you expect the government to come flying in and rescue you or are you making plans with friends and neighbors to coalesce around a community plan? Are you and your family ready for the trouble that is coming?"
"What are you waiting for? No, WHO are you waiting for? Do you have your lamps trimmed? Are you helping others to do likewise? What if you are the one that others are looking towards? Failure to plan is planning for failure. NOW is the time to prepare."
"So, what is YOUR plan?"[13] Read more

His Plan

We were warned that through covetous practices, free bread, and the socialism of force the public religions like the Imperial Cult of Rome were a snare.

Christ came to set us free if we will Repent and seek His Kingdom of God and the righteousness of God instead of the reward of unrighteousness. Can we be free? read more

Mkhangeli Matomela

In an interview with Mkhangeli Matomela who was a member of the ANC but is now founder of Kingdom Governance Movement Brother Gregory answers some of his questions about the Kingdom of God.

  1. . How then as a church can we transform communities and nations when we ourselves still need transforming?
  2. . How can those who receive the revelation of the kingdom and be that different Church or do we delay the transforming of the community?
  3. . How does the Church structure itself in the kingdom model so that the people of the world can see the value of the Kingdom of God on earth?

The modern Church has become a social club which provides an emotional need innate in mankind as a gregarious creature. While what people see as a worship service often makes them feel better is it the same worship spoken of in the Bible?

People will have to find ways of providing emotional support in the gathering of Tens like the early Church but not at the sacrifice of true worship. Discovering what that true worship looks like is a part of seeking the kingdom of God and His righteousness.

So what is worship? READ


The most predominant form of government throughout history has been based on voluntary systems composed of a Network of what was sometimes called the "tens, hundreds, and thousands". Early Israel, the Teutons, Saxons, Lumbards and many others societies all followed this pattern including the early Church because Christ commanded it. This allowed them to provide a Daily ministration for the welfare of all early Christians through the practice Pure Religion which was the Corban of Christ which helped early Christians survive and thrive while the Imperial Cult of Rome declined and fell. It is important to understand that the Imperial Cult of Rome and the Corban of the Pharisees were welfare systems of Social Security and public welfare that makes the word of God to none effect. They also make the people merchandise, curse children with debt and entangle you again in the yoke of bondage and the elements of the world. The Way of Christ is your only salvation.



"Will history ask when reviewing our generation “What manner of men had lived in those days...who had so eagerly surrendered their sovereignty for a lie and a delusion? Why had they been so anxious to believe that the government could solve problems for them which had been pridefully solved, many times over, by their fathers? Had their characters become so weak and debased, so craven and emasculated, that offers of government dole had become more important than their liberty and their humanity? Had they not know that power delegated to the government becomes the club of tyrants? They must have known. They had their own history to remember, and the history of five thousand years. Yet, they had willingly and knowingly, with all this knowledge, declared themselves unfit to manage their own affairs and had placed their lives, which belonged to God only, in the hands of sinister men who had long plotted to enslave them, by wars, by "directives," by "emergencies." In the name of the American people, the American people had been made captive.” ― Taylor Caldwell, Devils Advocate, set in a dystopia where North America has become a Communist dictatorship.

"If plotters again destroy your Republic, they will do it by your greedy and ignorant assent, by your disregard of your neighbors' rights, by your apathy and your stupidity. " Taylor Caldwell, Devils Advocate

"The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money." Alexis de Tocqueville


The Greek word ἐξουσία in Romans 13 translated "power" means the "power" or "right to choose" which is the "liberty of choice" which was originally bestowed upon the individual by "nature and nature's God". You lose the liberty to choose by taking oaths which modern Christians do and Jesus and James said not to do. They lose access to rights of choice when they apply for benefits, by praying for the "wages of unrighteousness" from men who exercise authority. Polybius, Plutarch, John the Baptist and Jesus warned us about such foolishness and said not to do these things which unfortunately the modern Christians do habitually. Because of the covetous practices of socialist governments and their citizens which the old and new testaments tells you not to do, which again the modern Christians do regularly bt the early Church refused to do.


Seeking the kingdom of God involves Steps.

Seeking the kingdom of God and His righteousness involves Steps you must take for yourself. Those steps are a part of the striving Jesus commands his disciples to do.

We are contacted by phone and email every week to answer what are often basic questions about the nature of the Church and what we call the living network. There are those who think there is nothing in the Bible about a network but Abraham, Moses, John the Baptist and the early Church all promoted the people gathering in a network for the purpose of love and charity. Christ commanded his disciples to make the people sit down in small companies united in ranks of hundreds and in fifties. read more about Steps.



Whole Story?

The Bondage of Egypt is where a portion of your labor was employed by the government in exchange for a limited offer of benefits. God told us in Deuteronomy 17 to never return to the way of Egypt again but the people did under Herod and Rome. Jesus told us to think a different way and to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. What is the rest of the story? Read more


I've read the article on Holy Matrimony vs Marriage by brother Gregory. My questions are,

If a man and woman is married by the state and not a Holy Matrimony under God, that pretty much means that if they have sex they are committing fornication, which is a sin?

fables

The Levites and Pharisees were steeped in foolish rituals and false fables misunderstood by their spiritually unmoored interpretation of the Torah their pride and self-righteousness kept them from seeing the simplicity of the kingdom. They were not bearing the fruit because of their slothful neglect of charity or their covetous practices that were making the word of God to none effect. Read more about fables.

Congregations of Rebuke
Congregations of Loving Rebuke

People who do not love the truth will hesitate to speak the truth. And the truth is people who do not love their neighbor will not speak the truth to their neighbor. The early Church like Israel were an outspoken direct people. They were men of action and responsibility. They worked well together because they sought to serve the God of truth and they had no alternative but to work together because the only government, the only Welfare and Defense they had was a voluntary one.

Modern Christians gather to feel right or good. They have little or no Daily ministration and they think it is love if we just all get along. They shy away from real personal and social controversy and often make a big deal about minor hermeneutics, straining at gnats but often swallowing camels.

A Congregations of Love is a Congregations of Rebuke if our rebuke is born of love of God and our fellowman. ...Read more
