The Precepts of the Christ
define the Church

God sees the heart and mind of mankind, but the world often requires something more tangible as evidence in witness. His Holy Church offers a system for the edification and protection of the free Church and congregation which may assist in the maintenance and nurturing of a free people under God.

The Church is not a building.1 It is an institution of Christ composed of living souls who seek to do the will of Christ and the Father. Its mission is imposed by Christ upon our hearts and minds.

Documenting the formation of the Church is no different than marking the boundary corners of property, or the borders of a dominion. That record also helps to identify and protect the church in the performance of its duty to God the Father by establishing the intent, obligations, rights, and responsibilities of all those who comprise the Church, as well as the authority by which the church does act. That record is to be a true and accurate preaching or publishing2 of the Kingdom of God.

The world gives us a consistent definition of a Church in Black’s Law Dictionary:

  • In its most general sense, the religious society founded and established by Jesus Christ, to receive, preserve, and propagate His doctrines and ordinances.”

  • A body or community of Christians, united under one form of government by the profession of one faith, and the observance of the same rituals and ceremonies.” 3

    First, the Church is seen as founded and established by the Christ. Our prayer is to conform to Christ, meeting His requirements, maintaining and edifying His Church in righteousness and truth, avoiding those stumbling blocks, the deceitful meat, snares, and traps which are a recompense to us and the Church.4

    The Church is a body and community and it is also under one form of government, separate and different from other governments, so that it may remain His Holy Assembly. The ordinances and doctrines of the Church are dictated by God. It is barred from exercising authority one over the other, but yet it is to be the benefactor of the people. In observance of His commandments, by the ritual of His ways, the ceremonies of His deeds, in service to His people and the world we profess our faith as the body of Christ by love.

    All the documents offered contribute to prima facia evidence of a separation from the ways of the world and our faith or fidelity in Christ’s way. These rituals and ceremonies, rites and services, forms and protocols are for the purpose of keeping the Church free from the domination of the world while remaining in the world. Their purpose, evidenced by this documentation, is to facilitate the individual in his search for His kingdom and righteousness. The recording of these events and documents is a witness to the world in service to the people, the Church, and to Christ, and our Father in Heaven.

  • Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.” Isaiah 8:16

    The change that comes from being Baptized in the spirit of Christ Jesus, receiving Him as Lord of your life, is only visible to those who have eyes to see. The world, not seeing these things of the spirit, needs evidence that is visible to the people of the world. Each member of a congregation and minister must define their ministry according to the spirit of the Father in their heart and mind.5 Each ordained minister of Christ must recognize and be recognized, accept or reject, according to his God given conscience. These provided forms and records are offered in that service so that there may be a uniform witness to the world, but it is by our love for one another and the fruits of that love that we shall be truly known.

    The rock upon which Christ shall build His Church6 is our faith. It is that divine revelation by the Father's Holy Spirit which shall build His Holy Church, in, for, and by those who have Faith in Him.

    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.
