(Check

DEVELOPMENT
I. THE HEALING
FAITH TEMPLE
a. Size - The Healing Faith Temple should be of a size
comparable to the demand of the faithful and conform to local construction laws
and city codes. Example: A Healing Faith Temple
with a capacity of 1,500 persons (1,000 adults, 500 children) should have
at least 500 parking spaces. There should be handicapped access for retirement
home vans to be able to drop their residents off at the front entrance area of
the temple. And they should remain their for the duration of the service until
their patrons are ready to return back to their residence.
b. Pot
Luck Buildings - Two pot luck buildings for after service sharing of a
meal are to be placed behind the temple at opposite corners; one is for married
members and their children. The other pot luck building is for singles and
divorces. Friends of either who do not fit the description of those allowed in
each of the respective pot luck buildings are to attend the pot lucks in the
building that suits their description status.
c.
Clubhouse - For a Healing Faith Temple the size of 1,500 people,
there will be a clubhouse for certain members of the local community who have
qualified as guests and/or adherents, but are restricted from certain areas and
under strict supervision for most of their entire stay on temple grounds,
including their own bathroom breaks. The amount of restricted guests
and adherents that are able to attend the Clubhouse at any time is bound by the
vote of the entire local Healing Faith Community through referendums, as are
all bylaw amendments. However, if adherents say of a county chose
to vote to restrict one or more groups which are eligible to benefit from the
power of The Healing Faith's restorative beliefs in giving and hearing
Testimony may be sued by the state or continental affiliates, whereby their
temple is issued a cease and desist order to reconfirm to The Healing Faith's
bylaws at state or continental level.
ELECTIONS
I. GOD OF THE HEALING FAITH
a. Until His retirement; or, end of His (maximum
two, four year) terms; or, a vote from the Continental adherents of The Healing
Faith after them reaching a point of 45% of continental adherents to say 'yea'
to force a scheduled a continental vote, The present God and President of The
Healing Faith is Amb. Jonathan Rodgers Chase, who is also an Ambassador of
Peace, and Humble Most Humble God and Messenger for The Creator of The Universe
and The Galaxies For The Here and The Beyond and The Heavenly Committee Of The
World's Recognized Faiths, which numbers approximately 1,267 as of May 17,
2017.
b. Gods of The Healing Faith are always Gods,
whether they retire or are forced into retirement - say after losing an
election after their first term is over; or, whether they die a mortal death.
All Gods become Gods emeritus with the exception if The Healing Faith's
adherents chose to havei a Healing Faith God who has past His or Her time on
earth and be called back into service to serve on The Heavenly.
c. There
is no vice-God in the Healing Faith. There is only one God of The Healing Faith
who votes on destinations of either Heaven or Hell for the adherent after they
have died a mortal death on earth after The God of The Healing Faith dies a
mortal death and God emeritus. Special dispensation has been given to Amb.
Jonathan Rodgers Chase, to allow all Healing Faith adherents entrance in Heaven
pending His arrival to settle the adherents true destinations of either Heaven
or Hell based on the nature of their actions and behavior in Heaven. All prior
Healing adherents behavior on earth is considered wiped away until The God of
The Healing Faith's arrival in Heaven to determine the disposition of The
Healing Faith's adherents.
d. Amb.
Jonathan Rodgers Chase, The God and President of The Healing Faith, an
Ambassador of Peace, Humble Most Humble God and Messenger for The Creator of
The Universe and The Galaxies For The Here and The Beyond and The Heavenly
Committee has been granted the ability to currently judge the current

TESTIMONY
Please understand that
The Healing Faith does genuinely give benefit of the doubt to
the aggrieved who choose to tell their testimony; however, there may be isolated
cases in which the testimony of a very small minority of the aggrieved does not
entirely ring true 100%. Nevertheless, this fact does not in any way shape or
form taint the entire canvas of The Healing Faith's steadfast mission to bring
the restorative power of healing testimony to the forefront, and will reprimand
false testimony in whole or in part by any testimonial-giver, subject to any
small or major untruths being uncovered in said testimony.
I. FOR THE AGGRIEVED
a. If they are giving testimony concerning an
issue in which the sexual preference of the aggrieved of that congregation
which was the cause for which they might have been invited to give Testimony in
acknowledgement of any wrongdoing or in rebuttal to what they believe was an
inaccurate conclusion of the aggrieved that necessitated the aggrieved to want
to deliver testimony for the congregation to hear; in which, the congregation
will determine either in public or private to way the nature of the testimony to
determine its veracity against one who might rebut it.
II. FOR THE OFFENDER
a. If they are giving testimony concerning an
issue in which the sexual preference of the aggrieved of that congregation
which was the cause for which they might have been invited to give Testimony in
acknowledgement of any wrongdoing or in rebuttal to what they believe was an
inaccurate conclusion of the aggrieved that necessitated the aggrieved to want
to deliver testimony for the congregation to hear and the receipt of an
invitation to deliver a rebuttal; the congregation will determine either in
public or private how to way the nature of the rebuttal to determine its
veracity against the testimony of the aggrieved.
III. REBUTTALS
a. There is only one rebuttal. The aggrieved
gives testimony first, followed by the alleged offender if they decided to
appear upon invitation. If the offender is unable to attend in person, perhaps
they are in jail, then a written statement rebuttal will be accepted to be read
by a family member or one chosen by the alleged offender.

and offenders are able to give testimony during a Sunday Sabbath. Each
