Luke 10:7King James Version (KJV)

7 And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.

ACTS 20:33,34 -
33- I have coveted no man's silver or gold or apparel.
34- You yourselves know that these hands have attended to the needs of me and of those with me.

Ok, where mi oga them? i think this rules out any leeching of any acclaimed minister, since d Apostle Paul who's known as a travelling evangelist can say this.. a pastor friend once told me his calling does not involve him working since he's a levite. i showed him this verse and he wasn't happy with mi showing it to him buh he still turned a blind eye. ok. i don give way

how will they survive and pay bills?
Pastors can b employed else where and pastorg but the strain for juggling to jobs can b much.

A pastors remuneration isnt a bill for a miracle or blessing. You cant buy anythng from God.

A pastor doesnt need to collect a salary,but they shud b catered for.
But many church members ar all about gimme gimme.
They wudnt giv a hoot about their pastor. Hence, to keep d man from strvg,stealg, a structure has to introduced.
Som pastors cud b wearing tattered cloths and shoes. Members will see this but do nothing.
They just wanna get their sermon and run out!

i only questioned his claim of being a levite (a yoruba man from kwara state for that matter grin)and i just pointed it out o and that was y he began seeing me as an enemy of his progress. seriously, if u too see what his members dey do for him(not like he owns his own church o), u go rush go open church.. grin
