The answer may not be as simple as one thinks. When we say ''hierarchy'' we think of people ruling one over the other but that is not what the word actually means in every case. Just like the word government suggests the idea of a ruler or ruling class. The truth is that history is replete with governments that had no rulers one over the other nor a ruling class. It has become so rare now that people believe that the term government can only mean people who rule the people rather than a system where the people rule themselves. It is not a centralized government of control, but a diversified network of faith, hope, and charity.

It does contain the word ''archy'' from the Greek word ''archon''<Ref>758 ~ἄρχων~ archon \@ar’-khone\@ present participle of 757; n m AV-ruler 22, prince 11, chief 2, magistrate 1, chief ruler 1; 37 1) a ruler, commander, chief, leader</Ref> or the verb ''archo'' <Ref>757 ~ἄρχω~ archo \@ar’-kho\@ a primary word;  v AV-rule over 1, reign over 1; 2 1) to be chief, to lead, to rule</Ref>which does mean ''ruler'' or ''rule over'' and is commonly used to reference rulers over people and translated as ''prince, chief, magistrate, commander,'' or ''leader''.
 
A [[Democracy]] may be said to be such a government but that is not true because a democracy is merely a government where the majority are the ruling class or elect an even smaller group that makes laws for the rest of the people. A [[Republic]] could be such a government of the people, for the people and by the people but the leaders would have to be absolutely [[titular]] when it came to ruling over another person.
 
Taxes in such a government would be entirely voluntary and there would be no entitlements except the natural rights endowed by a creator or parents as co-creators. While there are many examples in history the most well known was early Israel before the institution of kings.

Revision as of 15:15, 9 February 2016

The word hierarchy is defined today as "a system or organization in which people or groups are ranked one above the other according to status or authority."

Is there a "hierarchy" in the Church established by Christ?

The answer may not be as simple as one thinks. When we say hierarchy we think of people ruling one over the other but that is not what the word actually means in every case. Just like the word government suggests the idea of a ruler or ruling class. The truth is that history is replete with governments that had no rulers one over the other nor a ruling class. It has become so rare now that people believe that the term government can only mean people who rule the people rather than a system where the people rule themselves. It is not a centralized government of control, but a diversified network of faith, hope, and charity. In fact, “our modern reliance on government to make law and establish order is not the historical norm”.[1]


A Democracy may be said to be such a government but that is not true because a democracy is merely a government where the majority are the ruling class or elect an even smaller group that makes laws for the rest of the people. A Republic could be such a government of the people, for the people and by the people but the leaders would have to be absolutely titular when it came to ruling over another person.

Taxes in such a government would be entirely voluntary and there would be no entitlements except the natural rights endowed by a creator or parents as co-creators. While there are many examples in history the most well known was early Israel before the institution of kings.

The word hierarchy does contain the word archy from the Greek word archon[2] or the verb archo [3]which does mean ruler or rule over and is commonly used to reference rulers over people and translated as prince, chief, magistrate, commander, or leader.

We find forms of the word in the Bible like archisunagogos[4] meaning the ruler of the synagogue. He is not really ruling over people but over a place. Put the people who enter the place must remain orderly while in that place according to what the archisunagogos dictates but all they have to do is leave the place and they are free to do as they wish.

The Greek word synagogue [5] does not just mean a place like a building but can mean an assembly.

Early Israel gathered in congregations of ten families often choosing Levites as their ministers. These were free assemblies because there was no means by which to bind the people together and keep the Law of Moses.

At other times in history membership in a synagogue or congregation became the result of a contract with Kings like Herod the Great who offered a socialist system of welfare like that of Nimrod which made the word of God to none effect.

The chief ruler of the synagogue could kick you out of the welfare system run through the synagogues like we see John 9:22[6] But those were not truly Free Assemblies since the days of Herod the Great and his own version of Baptism.

But with the arrival of John the Baptist and Jesus some of these heads of synagogues repented [7] These men followed the ways of Christs repenting of the Corban of the Pharisees which had made the word of God to none effect. These true believers led their synagogues back to the righteous ways of Christ. They were still part of a welfare system in Pure Religion but they now depended upon Faith, Hope and Charity rather than force to provided for their needs. This righteous system of Corban set the people free in many ways but they now needed a Daily ministration dependent upon the Perfect law of liberty.

Men like Crispus began following the ways of Christ:

Acts 18:8 "And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized."

Crispus, Joses who became Barnabas, became part of a hierarchy that served the people with the Freewill offerings of the people rather than the Benefits of Benefactors who exercised authority one man over another. They did not rule over the people but over the offering. If they did a poor job people picked a minister who did a better job. The right to choose what to give and to whom to give was in the hands of the people in a different form of government that was not like Rome. This waw the Christian conflict between Rome and the true Christians. This is why Modern Christians have more in common with the Pharisees and Pagans than they do with the early Christian.

These were not national elections but local in the living network of self organizing Tens.

There was the politarches [8] which means the ruler of the city like a mayor or governor.

Or there is the word architriklinos < 755 ~ἀρχιτρίκλινος~ architriklinos \@ar-khee-tree’-klee-nos\@ from 746 and a compound of 5140 and 2827 (a dinner-bed, because composed of three couches); ; n m AV-governor of the feast 2, ruler of the feast 1; 3 1) the superintendent of the dining room, a table master. It differs from toast-master, who was one of the guests selected by lot to prescribe to the rest the mode of drinking. The table master was to place in order the tables and the couches, arrange the courses, taste the food and wine beforehand, and so forth.</Ref> which although it sounds ominous literally means the ruler of three couches. His job was to arrange things at a feast or big dinner so everything went well.

While the Church in general is an organization it consists of participants, the laity or people and the ministers who conform to Christ for His purposes are members of the Church. They are to be Benefactors of the people but are not to exercise authority one over the other. There is an absence of hierarchy in the sense of ruling over people.

Clearly there is a hierarchy in the Church which we see with Jesus comment in Matthew 23:11 "But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant."[9]

He goes on in Matthew 23:12 to say "And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted."[10]

So in what sense are the Ministers of the Church a hierarchy?

Hierarchy is a late Middle English word via the Old French and medieval Latin from Greek hierarkhia, from hierarkhēs ‘sacred ruler’. The earliest sense was ‘system of orders of angels and heavenly beings’; the other senses date from the 17th century.

But the Greek word hieros meaning dedicated or holy or the word hiereus meaning Priests. Understanding what Religion and specifically Pure Religion really means and the function a priest provided in free societies before they were bound by superstitions will help people understand what hierarchy meant.

When society contributed to a priest who had no personal estate like the Levites and the early Church and those Priests gathered in a network of Priests each ne became a joint heir of what they all received. This was important because when such priests died or stepped away from their official mission the funds and resources that they held for religious purposes, e.g. sacred treasures, would pass to the next individual who held that office of Priesthood or to the other join heirs to be used for their intended purpose.

The words joint heirs is from sugkleronomos [11] which is seen in Romans 8:17 "And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be also glorified together."

The Greek word sugkleronomos is also seen in several other verses.[12] Again understanding that Religion was a system of welfare wither set up in the Character of God and Christ or in the Character of Cain, Nimrod and Benefactors of the world who exercise authority one over the other. Seeking the Kingdom of God included seeking Pure Religion so that your welfare was not dependent nor spotted by the world.

Jesus uses it when He appoints the kingdom to the apostles.[13]

The apostles were rulers and princes but not over the people like the governments of the gentiles. They ruled over that which was freely given to them. If they did not do well with what was given to them for the purposes of Christ the people could choose to give no more. Any government where the rulers can force the contributions of the people is not following the ways of Christ, nor are the people free or at liberty.

    Luke 22:25-26 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.
