Here at "Church of The Firstborn" we adhere to the below verse as sort of a motto!
Philippians 3:14
14. - I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of GOD in "Christ Jesus". (Yahushua Ha Mashiyach)
We also understand what The Messiah meant in the following verses:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
John 8:31-32
31. - Then said "Yahushua" to those Jews which believed on Him,
If ye continue in My word, then are ye My disciples indeed;
32. - And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
**************
Our Heavenly Father (YHWH), by HIS "Ruach Ha Qodesh" (HIS/The Holy Spirit),
is continually opening our eyes to Truth in The Inspired Written Word (The Scriptures) of GOD! (Elohiym)
This enables us to see through some of the Falsehoods & Deception out there in most of the World & Modern Day Church!
It also enables us to be a force of Righteousness in these last and troubled days/hours.
As His Disciples (and Children of GOD), we strive to take on the challenge of being a Light unto this darkened & dying world,
To shine HIS Love through the Gospel, and through our remaining Life's Walk!
We Strive to take on the Character of The Most High's Son!
(This Character, which / when He walked the Earth centered around the below statement!)
"Not My will, but THY Will - Be Done!"
We will push forward with:
Trust, Love, and Obedience to Our Creator!
(To The Best of our ability!)
When We are Hungry and Strive for HIM; Each Day As We Grow in Understanding, HIS Will merges, overtakes & starts to become Our Will!
As this happens, we become a reflection of HIM!
And Ultimately
An Instrument of Light - unto Righteousness!
Come and Join us in this exciting Journey!
With HIS Love & Mercy/Help; Our Prayer - Is That We Will Be Able To Understand The Following:
Again, Come and Join us in this exciting effort & Journey!
Let's Grow Together!!! :-)
Please Note: This is - Not - A Mormon, Pentecostal, etc., Sect or Denomination!
This is a Non-Denominational Group/site that has good relationships with Brothers & Sisters among "various" Denominations & Faiths out there!
with a key note:
As Long as they are genuinely striving to Honor Our Heavenly Father!
- If This Is An Established Case; Why Not Strive To Learn & Grow Together - Sharpening One Another for HIS Glory/Esteem! -
If we had to be Categorized; We would just say that we are
"Believers and Follower's" of the Scriptural True Messiah;
Who is Our Example & Our Threshold unto Our "Heavenly" Father!
We realize that this is not Our Church, but rather that it is His Church;
"Assembly - in/through Him!"
We (And those affiliated with us) just strive to be a part of it!
* An Assembly/Group where the members belong to The Firstborn (Son of GOD/YHWH), not Anyone in this site/other! *
There have been certain organizations; "Some" actually outlined in the below link
which according to some information, MIGHT NOT EVEN EXIST ANYMORE:
The Author of this site/it's contents "Are Not" affiliated with certain groups there!
Neither the Author, Nor This Website/Contents (or affiliates) have anything to do with Certain Previous/Alternative Organizations that might have strayed from the true Scriptural usage of the name "Church of The Firstborn".
(We Recognize the name & association of it, unto the Purest Sense!)
A Name Found In Scripture,
Regarding Our Heavenly Father's Son, and His Church/Assembly.
The Purpose / Vision (Regarding the use of this particular name on this site) is to one day have those that fellowship with us - to be inspired, educated, and actively on course to having their names written in Heaven, in The Book of Life!
It is our Hope that this Site can be of some help in that effort!
We Look at it this way:
It is a term/phrase that can be viewed more like "The Body of Messiah/Christ"
(Which Makes Up His True Church/Assembly!)
Those on this site; realize that there are Many Members in the Body of Messiah/Christ; and therefore we do not look at Denomination, but rather choose to look at One's Heart & the Fruit that one/many may strive to produce! ;-)
We are Humble enough To Learn,
but hopefully also Strong enough in "HIS Spirit" to Edify!
Please Take Note of the Above!!! When thinking about those who may fellowship on this site - please remember what is said in: (John 13:34-35, 1 John 4:21)
In HIS Love,
Minister/Evangelist,
Bro. Ron Quarterman

Ephesians 4:12-16
12. His intention was the perfecting and the full equipping of the saints (His consecrated people), [that they should do] the work of ministering toward building up Christ's [Messiah's] body (the church/His Assembly),
13. [That it might develop] until we all attain oneness in the faith and in the comprehension of the [full and accurate] knowledge of the Son of GOD [YaHushua], that [we might arrive] at really mature manhood (the completeness of personality which is nothing less than the standard height of Christ's [Messiah's] own perfection), the measure of the stature of the fullness of the Christ [Messiah] and the completeness found in Him.
14. So then, we may no longer be children, tossed [like ships] to and fro between chance gusts of teaching and wavering with every changing wind of doctrine, [the prey of] the cunning and cleverness of unscrupulous men, [gamblers engaged] in every shifting form of trickery in inventing errors to mislead.
15. Rather, let our lives lovingly express truth [in all things, speaking truly, dealing truly, living truly]. Enfolded in love, let us grow up in every way and in all things into Him Who is the Head, [even] Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
16. For because of Him the whole body (the church, in all its various parts), closely joined and firmly knit together by the joints and ligaments with which it is supplied, when each part [with power adapted to its need] is working properly [in all its functions], grows to full maturity, building itself up in Love.
Disclaimer:
Please know, (As One Studies, You will find) that the letter "J" did not enter into the English Alphabet until roughly, less than ~ 500 years ago (around the ~ 16th Century). It was the Last Letter to be added into The English Language! Also, That the name "Jesus" comes from the Greek name "IESOUS" - (which has a lot of controversy surrounding it!)
"IESOUS" is supposed to come from the Hebrew word/Name - "YaHushua" / "YaHusha".
Therefore, it is the Authors "wish" that you recognize - "YaHushua" / "YaHusha".
(Correctly "translated" ---- [not transliterated] into English = "Joshua") as the name intended throughout this outline, which (through research and Prayer) most accurately represents the closest name of our Messiah when He walked this earth.
The name "Jesus" comes up on some of the Modern Day Scripture links throughout this outline, and is kept do to the commonality of it's usage; but it is really considered more of a mis- used nick- name. Each time you see that name, please register
"YaHushua" / "Yahusha", (YHWH Saves / Saved) as the most appropriate name for Him. For almost ~ 1600 years after He (The Messiah) walked the earth, he was not called "Jesus"
- (in Prayer, or anything else).
- When the name was transliterated from the Hebrew, it lost it's meaning!
* Do The Research For Yourself! (Don't Just take my word for it!)
Also, while we are speaking on the Names; it is the Authors wish that you recognize YHWH, as the name intended here (also one of the most accurate names) for Our Heavenly Father.
Shortened Version - YaH (As in Psalms 68:4),
Or in the Phrase "The Highest Praise Be To YaH!" - "HalleluYaH" / (Alleluia - Revelations 19)
For Outline Purposes, you might see the word "GOD", or the words "The LORD" here; again because of the Commonality of it's usage! I do Recognize HIM as The Supreme "Elohiym" (Or The Mighty "El"), and as The LORD of Lords! (Ruler/Master of Rulers/Masters).
Although no one can truly say/pronounce HIS name besides "I AM THAT I AM", or "Hayah Asher Hayah" [English-Hebrew] in (Exodus 3:14). In (Exodus 6:3), most might actually see HIS name as JEHOVAH, or "The LORD" in most of today's Bibles, but the word/Letters that were actually there, and Should be there now are "YHWH" called the Tetragrammaton. And Since the Letters "E", "O", "A" (vowels) were added, and the letters "J", and "V" Did Not Exist in The English Language At The Time! I choose to use a closer name version here - "YaHuaH" or "YaHWeH" (from YHWH) - adding 0 to 2 letters (for pronunciation purposes), instead of Five! You might see during this Outline that I chose to use either above or "YHWH" plainly many times instead of "The LORD", or "GOD" (which are plug-ins, in the Bibles that we read today).
Either way, Our Heavenly Father searches our Hearts to see what's in there. Whether ignorant of certain things, or not, HE will search our Hearts! The Scriptures do have a lot of emphasis on HIS Name; and The Holy Scriptures also tell us to Study to show ourselves approved... Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth! ------- I am striving to do that! ------- Are you doing the same...?
