2 Rob God constantly as in Malachi 3 V 6-12 and Lev 27 V30

3 Do not be willing and obedient to God as recorded in Isaiah 1v19

@OP
Stop manipulating the scriptures, there is absoutely nothing in scriptures that suggests a man of God should be rich, infact the bible warns against it. If a man of God wants to be rich he should be rich based on the sweat of his labour and NOT fleecing of the flock for personal gain. That is not to say a man of God shoul not be comfortable.

Excerpts from a letter written by an apostle of Christ [Paul] to a man of God [timothy].

1 Timothy 6:3-11:
3 Some people may contradict our teaching, but these are the wholesome teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. These teachings promote a godly life. 4 Anyone who teaches something different is arrogant and lacks understanding. Such a person has an unhealthy desire to quibble over the meaning of words. This stirs up arguments ending in jealousy, division, slander, and evil suspicions. 5 These people always cause trouble. Their minds are corrupt, and they have turned their backs on the truth. To them, a show of godliness is just a way to become wealthy.
6 Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. 7 After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can’t take anything with us when we leave it. 8 So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content.

9 But people who long to be rich fall into temptation and are trapped by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction. 10[b] 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[/b].

11 But you, Timothy, are a man of God; so run from all these evil things. Pursue righteousness and a godly life, along with faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.

The scriptures above clearly shows that using the gospel to make money is evil and is contrary to the teachings of Christ.
