Homepage Introduction:
Please read the following Disclaimer of my having NO ties to the Mormon Church, which uses the same name “The Church of the Firstborn. You can click on the link to read the FULL disclaimer!
Welcome to my Website here at “The Church of the Firstborn”! I would like to take a few moments to share WHY I chose this name of title for my website and also “disclaim” any association or affiliation with the Mormon Church,
Satan is a counterfeiter, a thief, and a liar. Jesus himself declared in John 8:44:
“You belong to your father, the devil… there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.”
From the beginning, Satan has twisted God's truth, hijacked sacred symbols, and deceived the whole world. One clear example is the rainbow, which was originally given by the Creator as a sign of His covenant—a promise never again to destroy the earth by flood. As written in Genesis 9:13–17:
“I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.”
Yet today, this divine symbol has been distorted and repurposed by worldly agendas. Satan has DECEIVED the whole world to WRONGLY believe that violent storms and destruction are wrongly attributed to the Creator as ACTS of God. But Jesus taught in Mark 3:24:
“If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.”
And in John 12:49, Jesus affirmed:
“I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me what to say and how to say it.”
So, when Jesus calmed the storm, then surely the storm was not sent by his Father. Otherwise, the Creator’s Kingdom would be divided. Everything Jesus said and did was shown to him by his God and Father.
This leads to another deception: the misuse of the only name given in Scripture for the TRUE Church of God—“The Church of the Firstborn”, found in Hebrews 12:23:
“…to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven…”
Let me clearly and emphatically state that I am not a Mormon, and I have no affiliation with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS)! Nor am I associated with any sect that uses the name “Church of the Firstborn”, while teaching doctrines that are contrary to the TRUE, Gospel of Jesus the Anointed One of God.
As some of you may already know, some LDS teachings refer to a "Church of the Firstborn" as being a celestial-level inheritance.
And other denominations have adopted similar names, according toWikipedia.
As for my ministry, it is rooted solely in the TRUE God INTENDED meaning of the Scriptures!
Especially in the area of teaching the TRUE Gospel and the TRUE Jesus, according to what Jesus and his Apostle ACTUALLY teach in the LIGHT of the WHOLE word of Almighty God, which I firmly believe is the Biblical Unitarian understanding of Jesus as the created and adopted HUMAN Son of God, whom his God and Father HIGHLY EXALTED after the Cross and Resurrection!
So, then, this introduction to my website is to explain that I am reclaiming and restoring the TRUE Sound Biblical MEANING of this sacred name and the character of Almighty God's Church. My mission is to teach the TRUE Gospel of Jesus the Anointed and NOT the man-made TRADITIONS of men.
So, if you are seeking truth and NOT TRADITION, then invite you to dig DEEP into the studies I have written, explore the Bible Teaching Song Videos that I have made and will continue to make as God leads me to do.
I never once thought in a million years that I would one day be writing songs. I sing off-key and I have no musical instrument talents. I simply know what type of music that I enjoy listening to with lyrics that are positive, uplifting, producing good godly character.
Here are the two links that I have on my YouTube Channel Banner on my Homepage at Mark At AMatterOfTruth channel.
The Banner itself does not have “clickable” links, but if you click on the MORE link below the banner, then a list of links that are clickable will open up.
Let us walk in the LIGHT of the WHOLE word of Almighty God, and NOT in the man-made church doctrine that were and that are still being formed by Christians taking verses OUT of CONTEXT.
Some of the FALSE doctrine began to be formed even during the days of the Apostles of Jesus. And thus, they have become church TRADITIONS that are highly revered as being the TRUTH.
In other words, no church denomination DELIBERATELY teaches false doctrine. Rather, every church denomination teaches what they sincerely believe is the truth.
For example, if you were raised in the Mormon Church denomination, then you will defend what your church denomination has taught to you. Otherwise, you would not be a Mormon.
The same is true with the Roman Catholic Church, the Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Oneness Pentecostal Christians, the Sabbatarian church denominations, the Calvinistic and Reformed Theology church denominations, and YES, even all of the Trinitarian Church denominations, will fight “tooth and nail”, so to speak, to defend what their church denomination has taught them to believe.
God began opening my eyes at age 23, which was after I left the Roman Catholic Church.
In other words, the main reason that I stopped attending Mass at the Roman Catholic Church was not over knowing that most everyone of their doctrines are false teachings that contradict what the Bible Itself actually teaches.
But rather, I left the Roman Catholic Church over the fighting between the parents of my sister’s, husband to be, who were Protestant Christians, and my mother who was a devout Roman Catholic.
For you see, the Roman Catholic Church dogmatically demands that the children must, without fail, be raised as Roman Catholics. And for a Protestant Christian to openly consent to such and agreement, shows that they are not true Protestant Christians.
Thus, the debate was an endless debate, because being side would consent to having their grandchildren raised to believe in another church denomination’s faith.
Now, on the outside looking in, so to speak, I saw how much my sister loved her boyfriend, and all they wanted to do is to get married. So, they went behind both “parents” back and had their wedding at a neutral College Campus Religious Center having BOTH a Protestant Pastor and a Roman Catholic Priest perform the wedding ceremony.
Long story short, they are both retired. My sister still attends the Roman Catholic Church, but she is open to listen to what the Bible teaches. Her husband does not attend any church as far as I know. They have one child, a son, who is married and also have one child, a son. Again, I am not sure if their son or his wife attends any church. I have never heard either one talk about church, God, Jesus, or any other religion.
And, to me, it is the DIVISION and the UNWILLINGNESS to sitdown and CALMY settle the MATTER by allowing the Scriptures to interpret the Scriptures to learn what the Bible Itself ACTUALLY teaches in the LIGHT of the WHOLE word of Almighty God.
And that is what my Ministry is all about. I simply ask my readers and seekers of God’s TRUTH to lay ALL Church Traditions ASIDE and start from SCRATCH using ONLY the Bible to base their faith upon!
I have found that God leads Christians to my websites and YouTube channel because they are already QUESTIONING one of their church denominations doctrines.
God shows them that they were right when they perceived that that particular doctrine did not fit with what some other verse were teaching and they come out of that particular church doctrine.
But as they continue reading the Bible studies that I have written, they come across a subject that they HIGHLY DISAGREE with what I teach. God says to remind them of the previous doctrine that helped them see His TRUTH and to be patient to continue seeking the WHOLE matter to hear all of the evidence.
And 9 times out of 10, they eventually see that the evidence of the SCRIPTURE proves their most reserved doctrine to also be a DECEPTION from Satan.
Now, the doctrine I am referring to that many of my readers once reserved as a non debatable doctrine in the doctrine of the Trinity. They had been taught in their church denominations that the Trinity is the CORE Faith of Christianity, and if a Christian DENIES that the Creator became FLESH, then they cannot be SAVED, they will LOSE their salvation.
But where in the Bible does it say that Almighty God HIMSELF BECAME flesh?
NOWHERE!
The verses that both Triniarian Christians and the Oneness Pentecostal Christians use are either taken OUT of their CONTEXT and their doctrine is READ into the Scriptures.
Or they read every verse of Scripture with their minds SET on the church TRADITION that if Almighty God HIMSELF did NOT die on the Cross for their sins, then they REMAIN DEAD in their sins.
Again, WHERE in the Bible does it say that?
NOWHERE!
Again, they READ that interpretation INTO John 8:24. Let us go ahead and read that verse to show you what I mean.
“John 8:24. I said therefore unto you, that you shall die in your sins: for if you believe NOT that I am he, you shall die in your sins.”
Both Trinitarian Christians and Oneness Pentecostal Christians READ their man-made doctrines INTO this verse. And to both of these groups of Christians, in their MIND they see this verse as saying the following.
False understanding of John 8:24.
“I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if you believe not that I am Almighty God HIMSELF in the FLESH, you shall die in your sins.”
But, if you simply read and correctly understand the very next verse, then you can CLEARLY see that at the very beginning of his MINISTRY, Jesus told the Jews in Luke 4:14-30 that he is the Messiah, the one whom God ANOINTED by reading the Old Testament Prophecy in Isaiah 61:1,2, and saying, “This Scripture is FULFILLED in your ears”
So, I implore all Trinitarian and Oneness Pentecostal Christians to read all of the in-depth Bible studies under the follow Menu Headings:
** D-0. The Biblical Jesus** Biblical Unitarian VIEW of Jesus!
The Church of the Firstborn & the TRUE Jesus! - Biblical Unitarian Study
If you did not find the SPECIFIC verse you are looking for, I also have studies on SUBJECTS like D-46. Are You SURE You Have the TRUE Gospel - DARE to TEST Your FAITH!
And in that study I quote Colossians and explain other passages of Scriptures in the Book of Colossians and other books of the Bible.
Those studies and MANY more can be found under the ** ALL STUDIES! ** menu list of studies.
Thanks for reading, and may God bless you richly as you continue to seek the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God.
And to me, the truth concerning who Jesus TRULY is, according to the Bible ITSELF, is the Biblical Unitarian view of Jesus.
Once Christians, Jews, Muslims, and even atheists understand the REASON that Yahweh CREATED the Son of MAN, Jesus, was to have DOMINION over the work of Yahweh’s hands.
And after you understand that the REASON that Yahweh did that is to STILL His ENEMIES, Satan and the fallen angels.
Then you can understand that God made His human Son to become “a” Lord, “a” King, and “a” God, under and subject to his God and Father in order to JUDGE Satan and the fallen angels.
For a deeper understanding of this WAR that Lucifer and one third of the angels waged against the throne of Almighty God, please read the studies under the subject category called ** Q-0 Why Are We Here? Is God at WAR? **.
More studies are coming in this SHORTER Biblical Unitarian view of who Jesus is according to the WHOLE word of God.
If you have a PARTICULAR verse of Scripture that you would like to know the sound Biblical Unitarian meaning, then please email me at MarkatAMatterOfTruth@Gmail.com and let me know.
For further and more in-depth studies on this subject of Jesus being created to STILL the enemies of Yahweh, please read the studies called D-25. A NEW LOOK at JOHN 1:1, In the BEGINNING!
And also read the study called D-28. The PRE-ADAMIC LUCIFERIAN FLOOD!
At the top of my homepage, there are subjects or categories which contain compiled lists of ** ALL Studies! ** I have written on that particular subject. So, if a link within a study is broken, then click on ** ALL Studies! ** to find the suggested study.
Or you can scroll down to the MORE dropdown menu list to find those studies as well.
Thanks again for reading, and may God bless you richly as you continue to seek the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God.
And to me, the truth concerning who Jesus TRULY is, according to the Bible ITSELF, is the Biblical Unitarian view of Jesus.
And again, for ALL of the studies on the Biblical Unitarian view of Jesus, please click on the subject heading ** D-0 The BIBLICAL UNITARIAN VIEW of Jesus! **
And for the SUBJECT on the true foundation of the church, please click on the subject heading ** C-0 The TRUE FOUNDATION of the Church! **
This way you can just send ONE link to those who you want to share the TRUE sound Biblical FOUNDATIONAL teachings of the church that Jesus and his Apostles taught in the first century church.
Your brother in our Lord Jesus Christ,
Brother Mark.
My heartfelt prayer is that all Christians RETURN to the TRUE FOUNDATION of the church that is taught by the very Apostles of Jesus in the first century.
So let us all come into the UNITY of the faith and return to what Jesus and his Apostles taught us in SIMPLICITY in the New Testament.
