PervertProphet: Also, try and read Matthew 25:14-30 to avoid been the unprofitable servant casted out into utter darkness. You Rob the Church of finance to reach more people. You are wicked while patting yourself on the back that you are a good person when the gathering of saints is starved of lighting more lives due to a dreath of funds. Most of you lack wisdom. You will even see the Atheists and Muslims give willingly to enhance the cause of their false gods but the children of light are so wicked and unwise exactly like the servant with one talent who sank the money the master gave him into the ground.
Where your heart is. Your treasure will also go to. If the clergy men at your church ain't accountable. You can get involved to make sure that the accounts are kept properly but to deny the church of funds is to be utterly wicked and deny many souls the resources that would h ave worked towards lightening them up.
wetin concern profit making with what the OP is saying? see as you wan twist that parable to mean the servant was robbing the church. for your info I am not a foolish Christian that can discern a brainwash/blackmail kind of preaching from what actually is
once you cater for the sick, hungry, homeless, etc, you did it for me - Jesus Christ!
GUMI is a religious leader and the government used him as a mediator to talk to the group because they respect him just like how government use traditional leaders to mediate during the niger delta militancy rampage.
Government can not use force all the time.
Ewu, when did any government appoint him mediator?
Sermwell: I have over time realised that I find it difficult to give larger amount of money in church. Most times I struggle to give #50 or even #20 as offerings in church. But I have always find it easy to give large sums to persons in need in and outside the church.
Quite recently, a brother accosted me in church with some challenges about his wife's childbirth in the hospital, I went with him and paid off 45k to discharge them. Aside him, I have given up to 100k (if not more) to persons in need this month alone.
But I struggle so hard to give larger sums in church. Even today, I gave #40 as offering in church when I actually have larger denominations in my wallet.
Funny enough, on my way out of the church today, I met my school mate and we went to my house together, although he didn't state categorically that he's in need, but he told me how he has been out of job for 3 months now. After the visit, I gave him 10k from the same wallet I gave #40 as offering in church today.
My question is, what could possibly be wrong with my giving in church? Is it trust issues or I consider it better to give to persons instead of the church?? Is anything wrong with my style of giving??

Nationwide, farmers truly deserve compensation. Farmers oo, not ministry of agric.
So also, herders deserve funds/support to setup ranches. Yes, many herders are rich but money get levels. Only the oil, tech and pastorpreneurship industries can afford a project like RUGA4 with little or no support from FG.
when fulani terrorist dey collect 100 billion you no say fulani man and money sha! shior
