There is no fake pastor but fake or ignorant christians......those who are ruled by sight......our world our created by our understanding of his word......there is no single world for every body as Heb 11:3 clearly makes us to understand that there are worlds not world ... so what the bishop is feeling in his church is not universal.....Winners,Salvation Ministry and Dunamis are all currently building mega churches and cities in this same economy even with many church building projects going on simultaneously at both state and local government levels.


It is to each according to their understanding

myners007:
Why are the Mosques not complaining?

1. Mosque is not own by one individual including Imam. Mosque is collectively own by all Muslim around the mosque location.

2. Voluntary contribution is for mosque upkeep only. The big money usually from the rich(Zakkat)usually doesn't come to mosque.

Compulsory charity(Zakkat) is for rich people to transfer small portion of thier wealth to those in need of assistance. So imam may or may not qualify depending on his economic conditions.

Good , PEOPLE ARE BECOMING WISER.

Use your money for yourselves, families, neighbours in need , genuine missionaries and kingdom preachers , and then use some to save for a rainy day .

Let these churches also sell all their grand buildings and give the proceeds to the poor.

Summary:the church is feeling the recession because their financial assistance to its members has increased and hence money used for other project are diverted to helping its member who can't pay school fees,hospital bills.etc....



That nigga Called dropshot is a dullard like his father in power.

Exactly the point he is making.
Re: Recession Hits Churches As Incomes Dwindle - Trudigest.com by eaglechild: 11:50am On Jan 02, 2017
It is sad people no longer comprehend what they read.

The bishop has stated that the burden of helping out destitutes has greatly increased putting the church under financial strain. Also church institutions like schools and hospitals are faced with increasing burden of writing off bills which means that the self sustaining nature of these ventures is becoming threatened.

The Catholic church is foremost a missionary church whose form of evangelism is targeted at providing a holistic care that can transform and empower converts.

Which means schools, hospitals, orphanages, asylums etc to provide basic needs not just for the less privileged but the general society.
These institutions are usually set up from charities of members but once started are made self sustaining to enable payment of staff and general maintenance.
When students can no longer pay fees and patients can't pay bills, what it means is that staff and infrastructure suffer.
When charity from members reduce, orphanages, old peoples' homes and and other asylums suffer.

Don't criticise just yet.

Evangelism on its own is a project.

Again, helping the poor/needy is also a project, as well as an act of Evangelism

After all, it will make CHRISTAINITY stronger and formidable.

Let it eat deeper into the CHURCHES.
But not into the children of GOD.

Pathetic Christianity.
Cultism in the house of God.

So "Catholics" now gat a problem simply because they're"Catholics" and all "winners" family are operating in "heaven's economy"...??

Stop worshipping your pastor and congregational belonging and start following Jesus Christ.
