Pretty obvious this one existed BEFORE any of the others eh?!

Well....I don't think so. As you recall in John 17:11 Jesus is praying to God, asking Him to protect the Church in His (God's) own name. This was right before he was arrested after eating the Last Supper.....so I think the "Church of God" was fairly well established before the Book of Hebrews was written.

The reference, though, is to the one written in Heaven.
