It is kinda funny that here on Free Republic we frown on people begrudging other people for the money they make. It is the politics of envy. Yet if by some chance a Pastor, who works 24/7/365.25 happens to make more than a hamburger flipper then he is looked upon with suspicion.

Ah, the religion of envy.

Every Christian should look at his job as a ministry. He is working to provide for his family and to be a witness to non-believers in his ethics and to provide offerings for the furtherance of the Gospel. The Pastor is merely a partner with his congregants and what they pay him is nobody's business except those who pay it, and even then it is probably better that they don't know. I don't know what my pastor makes and I don't care. I only pray that he makes more than I do since he has a much greater responsibility than I do. I suspect, however, that he makes much less than me. If that is the case, then he celearly deserves more.
