A Biblical church

We’ve got churches who want to make themselves into a country club. All to attract the unbelieving masses and entertain the saints.

Is the church for unbelievers?  1 Corinthians 14:24.

Ephesians 4:11-12 (AMP), And [His gifts to the church were varied and] He Himself appointed some as apostles [special messengers, representatives], some as prophets [who speak a new message from God to the people], some as evangelists [who spread the good news of salvation], and some as pastors and teachers [to shepherd and guide and instruct], 12 [and He did this] to fully equip and perfect the saints (God’s people) for works of service, to build up the body of Christ [the church];

Discipleship Evangelism: The Need For Discipleship

Around the 51:50 mark of the video, Doug Wilson explains the church/family set up.

Moving on to the rule of law and the Constitution.  The first amendment. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

Freedom 
Liberty
The basis of the law is that man is born of God, thereby he operates under the pleasure of God. And because he's born of God, he has Inherent rights. Those rights are protected by the Constitution and common law. Corporations on the other hand are born of government and operate under the pleasure of government. And because they do they have privileges which are protected by statues, and uniform commercial codes.
What we've done today is blurred all that together. This was done by design from tyrannical lawmakers and Presidents. Along with ignorant Pastors, overseers, elders and deacons they became 501(c)(3) organizations which is essentially giving up their authority to the government and now have been classified as a corporation. Instead of operating by Faith under the pleasures of God they are operating under the pleasures of government; they
are nothing more than a government meeting house. Ezra 7:24 (AMP), "We also inform you that it is not authorized to impose tax, tribute, or toll on any of the priests, Levites, singers, doorkeepers, temple servants or other servants of this house of God."

Isaiah 33:22 says, “For the Lord is our Judge [the judicial branch], the Lord is our Lawgiver [the legislative branch], the Lord is our King [the executive branch].”

Our Founding Fathers knew that separated powers were needed because of man’s inherent sinfulness and desire for control—and what better model could there be for a government than the Lord who governs the universe.

Theodore Roosevelt said, “The teachings of the Bible are so interwoven and entwined with our whole civic and social life that it would be literally—I do not mean figuratively, I mean literally—impossible for us to figure to ourselves what life would be if these teachings were removed.”
