The two-volumes of Luke include both the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Aposles. The text of Luke-Act was used for instruction concerning The Way. The events show the record of an international network of ministers and a multinational intentional community of congregations bound by a common communion of fervent charity. As a peculiar people this kingdom of heaven consisted of intimate congregants of elders of families working together in the love of Christ.
The early Church is seen providing emergency aid and welfare assistance in a daily ministration of Pure Religion through charity alone all over the Empire without the benefits of the legal charity and dainties of those benefactors of the world who exercise authority. The ideology that the use of force to compell the sacrifices of the citizen to provid the Social welfare of public religion degenerates the masses and destroys liberty.[1]

The Father's house was first our Father in heaven. People left their Father's house and elected the fathers of the world. The people gave their conscripted fathers power to rule over them and to even borrow in their name. They failed to include or adhere to the 5 prohibitions in Deuteronomy 17 to say nothing of the Ten Commandments making covenants and coveting. It was His inheritance of liberty that was squandered by the Prodigal son.
I commend those who try not to take any benefits from those Benefactors who exercise authority. I commend those who have not sought the wages of unrighteousness. But that is not enough.
If we want to get back to our Father's house in the kingdom of God we need to think differently and go another way, because our fathers and grandfathers did choose to have "one purse". They have been "snared and trapped" as prophesied. Because of debt, the people cannot just free themselves and they have no place to stand to claim freedom.
We need to remember that:
Rights are inherited and so can obligations be passed to the next generation. Our fathers have eaten "unripe grapes turning our teeth on edge". They have through covetous practices made themselves and us merchandise. They have cursed children which is us, and made us surety for debt.
Proverbs tells us to remember the ant who work together. Jesus commanded us to sit in the tens....
The prodigal son did not come back to get his inheritance but to be a "servant in his first father's house".
That is what all the apostles and the ministers of the early Church did. They served the people in the free congregations of tens through pure religion creating a network of those who might survive the decline and fall of the Roman empire.
Christ had a plan. That is still the plan. Those who are called out to be ministers of His Church can come out but they have no personal estate and must come into one accord to serve those who will sit down in the tens. If they, the people, do not sit down in the tens I assume there will be no loaves and fishes.
The system is so complete and pervasive those who were entangled are snared and cursed. I see no personal exit for most people that could be counted as righteous. They are under the yoke of the unrighteous mammon. Yet, there is hope.
If the world said that if you get the Baptism of Christ then you are kicked out of their system like the Pharisees did then congregants could get out now. That may come someday but right now the people are not really ready to come out. There will probably need to be some plagues and tribulations first to bring people up to speed.
In the meantime... The world has said ministers who conform to the directives of Christ, who are part of congregations of ministers, who have waived their rights to eat at the table of their system, can be separate. But to claim that those ministers would have to come back to their Father's house to be His servants, to serve others not themselves and certainly not to be free, or sovereign etc.
To serve Christ means to serve others in His name in the righteous mammon. They cannot do that until the people sit down in companies of ten as Jesus commanded. That was the plan then and now. That is The Way.


[1] Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.

[2] And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.

[3] And he spake this parable unto them, saying,

[6] And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep[2] which was lost.

  1. ↑ Destroyers of liberty
    "That the man who first ruined the Roman people twas he who first gave them treats and gratuities. But this mischief crept secretly and gradually in, and did not openly make it's appearance in Rome for a considerable time." Plutarch's Life of Coriolanus (c. 100 AD.) This would include Julius Caesar and eventually Augustus Caesar which is why Plutarch also reported, “The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations, and benefits.” This was a major theme of the Bible:
    There were tables of welfare which were both snares and a traps as David and Paul stated and Peter warned would make us merchandise and curse children. Proverbs 23 told us not to not eat the "dainties" offered at those tables of Rulers and Paul says in 1 Corinthians 10 we cannot eat of those tables and the table of the Lord. We are not to consent to their covetous systems of One purse or Corban which makes the word of God to none effect.
    We know when the masses become accustomed to those benefits of legal charity which are the rewards of unrighteousness provided by benefactors who exercise authority and the Fathers of the earth through the covetous practices that makes men merchandise and curse children as a surety for debt.
  2. ↑ My sheep
    Luke 15:6 "And when he cometh home, he calleth together [his] friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost."
    John 10:14 "I am the good shepherd, and know my [sheep], and am known of mine."
    John 10:15 "As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, [and] one shepherd."
    John 10:26 "But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:"
    John 21:15 "So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. 16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep. 17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep."
