You read the title of this page correctly. We actually can follow Jesus Christ and be His Ekklesia without the practice of the traditions of men. This page is dedicated to exposing this truth! Please continue to read and watch with an open mind and heart because this truth will challenge most believers. It is not taught in the churches and it is not promoted by Christian leadership either.

THE TRUE ORIGIN OF THE WORD CHURCH WILL SHOCK YOU!
I would like to present to you the idea and concept that many “Christians” do not think about. God chose the Israelites to be His people and instructed them with high details to build the Tabernacle. Once the Israelites became established in their own land King David felt compelled to build a temple made of stone replacing the Tabernacle that God commanded the Israelites to build. Did God tell David to replace the Tabernacle with a temple of stone? Or was David acting on his own desires and intuition? Here is a link to an amazing article that analyzes this concept in detail.

So if the stone temple was not what God intended for his children and He desires to dwell / live in temples that are not made by human hands (Literally our bodies), why did followers of Jesus Christ repeat the same action in building newer versions of stone temples called “Churches” when Jesus gave us the understanding that we are the Ekklesia that He is building? Because man has always listened to man instead of God. That is why.
LETS TALK ABOUT THE BIBLICAL TRUTHS ABOUT “CHURCH”
This video explains why the established church systems of today are not the true Ekklesia that God intended for the Body of Christ.

LETS VIEW THE EARLY EKKLESIA
The hierarchy of the Old Testament is not meant for the New Testament Covenant of Grace.
MATTHEW 23:8-12 – Amplified Version
8 But do not be called Rabbi (Teacher); for One is your Teacher, and you are all [equally] brothers. 9 Do not call anyone on earth [who guides you spiritually] your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven. 10 Do not let yourselves be called leaders or teachers; for One is your Leader (Teacher), the Christ. 11 But the greatest among you will be your servant. 12 Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be raised to honor.
Priest, Rabi, Pastor, Bishop, Reverend, They all are the same. We have been deceived…
The Five Fold Ministry are functions not positions and they are empowered by the Holy Spirit which enable believers to edify the Ekklesia. FUNCTIONS NOT TITLES. There is no instructions or commands from God to form a new temple system aka “The Church” found in the scriptures of the New Testament at all.
An additional video that talks about the dangers of the false hierarchy of the church system that we see today.
PLEASE WATCH THIS WHOLE VIDEO….
We are focused on home based assemblies. We do not meet in traditional church buildings. Our focus is on the Kingdom of God, not the church institutions of man or the concept of Nation Building. We follow an early gathering format that is quite different from what you see in typical churches or temples today.
A simple break down of the Organic Church Concept
This is what happens in Organic Church
A quick meme video of Ekklesia (Organic Church)
So… How does the Body of Christ (Ekklesia) grow if there are no church buildings or established institutions? Discipleship is the way we build relationships
The gathering of believers is for the purpose of fellowship, prayer, worshiping God, studying the scriptures and discipleship. This is not so in the typical church of today.
Disciples are raised up by Elders to become Elders so they can disciple. Very simple concept.
