Corporate mentality has been
destroyed... and is being removed from the True Church.” What does this mean? To Incorporate or Corporate means to bringing
together of many as one body, and as one mind ….. so this mentality should STAY and INCREASE By
and In The Government of the Lord. But
what about those that have an issue with incorporating in the state, or with
the laws of the land? Some say yes, some say no don’t do it. Does that mean we cannot use the benefits of
the state and federal government of the land, to benefit the Body of
Christ? If the earth is the Lord's, then isn't He the one that is in
charge of the governments of the land.... Didn't God put us in this earth
to declare His Righteousness and His Government in this land. Yes. So don't give away
that authority the Lord gave us. Instead, Get Up and Stand in
Your Place that the Lord has put you in, and Do the Work, ministering the Gifts
He has given you. Even in the days of Jesus, didn't he
permit taxes to be paid, to go along with their rules, and keep the peace...,
as long as they never interfered with the Order and Government of His Father.
So if paying taxes was okay, then not paying them (thru the benefit of the
government by being a 501c3 status) is also okay today… does anyone really care
about getting a tax deduction? Oh, you
do care!
Then be sure our giving is to the Lord
and out of obedience, first and for most.
Getting a tax deduction is not wrong
or against God, but it is ‘the motive’ or reason for the giving that needs to
be looked at. Maybe there are those that
are so wealthy that they could use a tax deduction and want to give to help the
Lord’s Ministry, too. Then let them give
with a cheerful heart, as the Lord puts on their heart to give. And if another that is wealthy wants to give
only because of a tax deduction, then let the Lord be praised by the Body of
Christ in that giving, for the scriptures reveal that the wealth of the sinner
is stored up for the just.... But it is
a choice to make, yet only after seeking diligently the direction the Lord, as
He directs YOU to do.
Money shouldn’t determine what you
do. Being Free from paying taxes
shouldn’t be the reason to create a local assembling place for the Body of
Christ. But yielding to the Lord’s decision on how to create that
gathering... and if He wants to pay
taxes, so be it. … if He wants it to be 501c3, so be it.
The Word of God in our situation is
sufficient to bring us what is needed.
It was the Religious System that
gave Him the most problems. Put the Lord first in our lives. Acknowledge Him in all our ways. Let HIM be the reason for all we do.
So ask the Father how He wants YOU to work
the ministry He has put in your hands.
If the Lord tells you to make it as a
corporation, or a sole proprietor, or go and minister in your daily lives with
no company of the land at all, or just have meetings in your home (we have that
privilege in the USA to ‘freely assemble.’) … whether able to give tax
deductible receipts or receive only “gifts non taxable” or even pay taxes on
the support you get…
the decision comes down to what and
how our Father wants us to do His Will.
Don’t allow Money to determine our
motions!
Let the Word of God be established in
every move.
So go and do as He instructs. Whether
a corporation set up as a local assembling, or free church set up or
whatever… just do it because He our
Father says to.
And Ask the Lord how He wants you to
give your gifts of support to His Ministries….
then just do it. Teamwork. No one is better than another in the Body of
Christ.
We Need Each Other! Just go and do
what He tells you to and be settled in that, and let love flow.
If any grumble or complain, let them
take it up with our Father, who has made Jesus Christ, that eternal Sacrifice
and Soul of God, our true HEAD and Authority in all places that He takes
us.
Time to Be about our Father's Business
and Go to Work…. So let the Father’s
Government Reign in our Souls first, and then it will flow in this land that we
live in…
And we will see the change for the
better in this land.
Trust God. Have Faith In God. He Deserves all Honor, Glory, and
Thanksgiving from All.
Amen.
