What Do We mean by Community?

When we speak of Community, it is important to understand that we are not talking about going to some far away place, on some desert island. We know there are a few religious groups, out there, that presume to be saving people by isolating them from the rest of the world. We hear stories, all the time, of family members not being able to see their loved ones, nor talk to them because a certain religious group has decided to redefined Yahweh’s natural law of interpersonal relationships. Well intentioned individuals, seeking for a better way of life, often find themselves

 

under demonic demands to not see blood relatives and close friends, supposedly to preserve themselves from corruption. The Church of Scientology is said to have such a practice.

Some religious groups go as far as providing for all the needs of members who work for them, while the church collects the dough made from the sweat of those people; they only give those blind members a small allowance just enough for miscellaneous expanses. The Catholic Church is notorious for that. They bring young nuns from third-world countries to work as missionaries in the U.S. in the church-run Nursing Homes. These religious workers receive no salary, while the Church makes thousands of dollars per day per patient.

You have also, probably, heard of parents who no longer speak to their children because those smart kids refuse to accept the unconditional yokes of blind religious orders or groups that impose undo burdens on them.

Those principles of isolation, financial control, and emotional desensitivity, are surely unbiblical. The Bible says, “Believe in Adonai, Yahshua, and you shall be saved you and your family.” How can anyone become a channel that brings salvation to his family members if he no longer talks to them.? The rules of those people are rules of self-righteousness, whose aim is to brainwash, control, and create spiritual despondency.

Individual freedom is one of the most important gifts Elohim has given to a human being. The intelligent person should be weary of any group, big or small church, that usurps the right to do for him or her what he/she can do for himself or herself. A man ought to work and manage his own financial affairs in relationship to his Elohim and his family, to show himself worthy of what Yahweh has bequeathed on him, and to eventually receive his blessings. To accept anything to the contrary is to set oneself up for unimaginable consequences.

We must also emphasize, though, that what seems to be isolation in the eyes of those that are stiff-necked and in love with this world’s system is not the same for those that know they are not part of this world, and they have therefore chosen to dedicate their lives to work for the world to come. If the world has nothing in you, it shouldn’t be a problem, at all, for you to come out of Babylon, so that you do not share in her sinful habits, unknowingly, and partakes of her plagues, Rev. 18:4; for whosoever is found to be polluted on that day shall receive a measure of the wrath

of Elohim. The fact is he who can’t come out was not called out, and therefore is not one of the saints of Yahweh.

The saints have no problem turning their backs on the corrupted institutions and way of life of this world.We know that whatever unbelieving spirits and half-hearted believers think we are missing “are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us” for having obeyed the will of our Heavenly Father and King, Romans 8:18. This verse shows that even the redemption of the entire creation depends on our obeying Yahweh. The question may be how much you fear and love Yahweh, — for those who love and respect Him readily obey Him–; and all true disciples seek to live by every word that proceeds from Elohim. And the word, in this case, is “Gather yourselves together”, “Up, up! Flee from the land of the north… Up, Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.”

When Yahshua’s People speak of Community, we mean that we seek to live in the same close area. Members freely elect to live in the same apartment buildings (like Orthodox Jews do in the North East), or in their own private homes, or in the same compound (a raw of buildings with multiple apartments) on the same piece of land. There are many advantages to this kind of setting for those who are not selfish, egotistical, secretly homophobic, and filled with prejudices; hypocrites that, certainly, shall not make it into the New Jerusalem.

As a Realtor I know for sure that when we buyour own real estate properties, instead of paying rent to a landlord to enrich him on top of our heads,we build equityfor ourselves. Equity is the difference between what you owe to the bank (your mortgage) and the actual value of your property in the open market. This is the best way for any poor person to save and make money. One can buy a house for $120,000 and sell it the day after for $160,000, but the money in rent never returns to the tenant. The above example is nothing to the bulk of the Vision given to us and the wealth of opportunities waiting for us, out there. Find a link to ourReal Estate Investment Companyin Collective Freedom. Come and have your life rebuilt. Come and be set free from the bondage of Egypt.

We are not asking any disciple to abandon their relatives because they are supposedly unbelievers or sinners. Self-righteousness, mind control, and financial slavery, are not from the Spirit of Truth. We are not saying that you should stay in your state of residence because mommy and daddy, brothers and sisters do not agree with you and, therefore, won’t move with you. You must (and this is a biblical command) leave behind those who won’t leave Sodom and Gomorrah. After all they were not called out; you were. You must, however, keep in touch with them, even inviting them over to experience and see the difference. Yet, Yahshua says, “He who forsakes mother, father, son, and daughter, for the sake of the kingdom shall receive a hundred fold.”
