How does 501c3 equate to “greed”?
The fact is the State does not mandate the Church pay taxes. That the government uses a 501c3 vehicle has more to do with IRS protocol... not “greed.” Your intensity displays “envy”... on your part.
BTW: What Church, specifically, do you place this libel of “avarice? I suspect your answer; however, I would rather have you make the calumny for all to witness.
Your arguments smack of the fundamentalist hype and the tired conspiracy fables, long spewed form the mouths of discontented heretics. You should be so concerned with the state of your own soul… then you would not be so troubled by the contents of other’s wallets.
Show me “where” Christ went to Rome and asked that he be given a special contract to not pay his taxes so that he could grow God’s Kingdom...which was a kingdom not of this earth. Show me where Christ climbed in bed with any government...other than his Fathers. Show me where Christ had more faith in Rome, or the religious leaders of those days than his own Father!! Christ was the only begotten son of God and NO WHERE do I see where he strived to build the kingdoms or build what man claims to deserve for himself.
Christ had no where to lay his head.
NO ONE needs a 501c3 contract to have a church or to meet as believers. NO ONE needs it, it is not mandatory. Christ paid his taxes....read it...was even asked about it.
It is this contract that gives the government the right to tell a church what they can and can’t preach. For the sake of money truth will be silenced. For the sake of money...the most liberal and pro-abortion man in our history was elected by the greed of this country. A 501c3 puts more money in the pockets of the organization who has it. How much more money would you pocket if you did not pay taxes?
Are there less homeless? Are there less poor? NO....what we have is one huge rich mega church going up one right after another. ALWAYS the need to build a bigger and better building while the poor and widows do without!!!! Are the morals in this country better? NO!! This country has become corrupt and wicked and the Beast of government is growing at an alarming rate!!
WHAT was suppose to be the responsibilty of the church has been handed to the gov. in welfare, medicare, medicaid....ect. ect. ect.
BUT...the denominations walk softly as not to step on the toes of its bed partner (gov.) and does not preach what needs to be preached or take care of what needs to be taken care of.
AND quit trying to trap me...a whore is a whore...she has either sold herself or she hasn’t. She is either chaste and the true Bride of Christ or she is not. Protestant...Catholic...Islam...Jehovah Witness...Mormon...all denominations... it makes no difference!!!!!!!! She has either sold herself or she hasn’t...it is either a whore or it isn’t. It is either in bed with the Beast or it isn’t!!!
Your intensity displays “envy”... on your part.
********
p.s. My intensity is passion. The writing is on the wall and no one will read it!!! or very few. Such is the condition of the hearts of men....all for the love of money.
The writing will get clearer as time passes...that which was revealed to Daniel that was sealed up till the end... is about to be revealed.
God has always sent warnings and man-kind has always sought to kill those who warned. Oh wait...now they are called conspiracy theories...roflol. We have NEW words....LOL.
