@abuzola & ogaga, i think u guys make more sence wen u re quiet. what all xtian folks shld know is that, so many con artists have infiltrated the church. We need to b vigilant and publicly speak against this vice in the house of the lord. If u find yourself in any church that is always asking for one seed or the other, pls relocate in the intrest of personal security. @all muslim, when some swindle people to fund chaos and terorism,such a person is a sinner just like the con pastors. Peace |

[size=13pt]dadde : I Disagree with your thought towards me and Abuzola dear,I insist you're Wrong. . . dont tell me you never know SATAN has certainly been the best friend the church has ever had, as he has kept it in business all these years. The false doctrine of Hell and the Devil has allowed the Protestant and Catholic Churches to flourish far too long. Without a devil to point their fingers at, religionists of the right hand path would have nothing with which to threaten their followers. "Satan leads you to temptation"; "Satan is the prince of evil"; "Satan is vicious, cruel, brutal," they warn. "If you give in to the temptations of the devil, you will surely suffer eternal damnation and roast in Hell." [/size] |

Ogaga4Luv:The church wants to help by keeping the evil away from our hands hence we give it to them. On a more serious note the bible does not describe money as the root of all evil but rather "the love of money" love being the key word. I would reproduce the passage below for clearer understanding: 1 Timothy 6:10: 10 For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows. The above passage was specifically addressed to christian preachers who see the gospel as a means of making money, many of them abound today especially in out pentecostal fold. |
