I filed a few days ago with the IRS and the Secretary of State. I haven't completed the 501c(3) paperwork yet. I can't afford it, but It's a nonprofit. Tax exemptions will likely only apply with property taxes, if ever. Otherwise, if income is generated taxes will apply. I filed to separate and branch out from original source.
The following is a rundown.
1. We acknowledge the holy spirit as being an honest and truthful spirit, able to lead us as a guiding principle into all truth, which is to say we are obligated to this principal spirit as both a guide and for our ongoing morality (correctness).
2. We acknowledge God as our creator from where all things originate, that we are formed of Gods substance as living
beings, and as such we acknowledge the holy spirit as the elemental principle required to complete the triune nature of Godhead and through us, who adhere to its principle application.
3. We acknowledge the above to represent the nature of Christos, and to be anointed by truth (holy spirit) as Jesus was, enables us to conduct our lives rightly according to present life reality and to do so in truth.
4. We acknowledge righteousness to equate to right or rightness and true, and that wickedness equates to error, false, deceit, and/or to be incorrect, and that sin represents falling short of living truthfully as individuals.
5. We acknowledge morality to be individual and personal, being aware that subjective truth varies from person to person, and that it is required for the development of a truer relationship in how we honor God from our spirit as people.
Mission and Purpose Statement:
“Navigating life though the power of the Holy Spirit in truth, obligating ourselves to this duty as members of Christos Agnate Evolutionist Church, our mission is in our continual repentance, never leaning on our own (present day) understanding, but to honor God in Spirit and truth as truth reveals itself, manifesting through the many vehicles present in our ever-changing world.”
Statement of Dissolution:
“Upon discontinuance of the Christos Agnate Evolutionist Church, by dissolution or any other, any assets lawfully available for distribution are to be transferred to any organization (s) qualifying as tax exempt or otherwise, who uphold similar principles as our own, under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.”
For the purpose of establishing a truer principled observance of the logos, for the edification and development of those who obligate themselves to truth, both through reason and applied study, and through the precepts associated with this honorable duty, the Christos Agnate Evolutionist Church shall be governed by the following Constitution:
That, we, the undersigned have voluntarily associated ourselves together for the purpose of forming a more unified body in compliance with the Laws of the State of Kentucky, hereby certify the following bylaws as essential precepts for our ongoing conduct:
Christos Agnate Evolutionist Church
