They are still in the flesh, and witnessing flashes of miracles and testimonies from brethren and that is of course drawing members wide and near to their various churches. And yet we can see that they are not ready to enter into the deep water. When they are ready for Christ to be formed in their heart he will manifest himself and the whole world will be amazed.


What should they do then?


Have you ever seen someone who's man of God Almighty and CHRIST JESUS indeed?, they are very rare in this dispensation. Someone whose faith is rested on the power of God Almighty and CHRIST JESUS and not on the wisdom of men.

1 Corinthians 2:4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 2:5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.



They are still scheming for the dollars in the name of seeds, tithes, first fruit offerings and what have you, they haven't started preaching the gospel of Christ Jesus. The arm of the lord has not been revealed to them, they are still operating in the former glory of the church.


Isaiah 53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?


Are they sure that they are risen together with Christ Jesus, do they really understood the tenants of the Spirit. Have they been dipped in to the water of life??, or as John the Baptist noted that Christ Jesus shall baptize with the Spirit. We doubt if they are into the river of God Almighty's yet.


What should they do Check the account balance of several of them, including their junior pastor's, you'd find 1.1 billion, 3 billion we are not joking here, we are talking seriously. Now ask yourself, where are they going with such kind of money and this money keeps increasing every day every moment. And they feel it's God Almighty's presence and his blessings upon their ministries. Lies from the pit of hell.



Our first apostles were almost tempted by Satan to fall into this trap, don't forget Christ Jesus had told Peter that Satan have desired to use him as he, Satan likes but that Christ has prayed for him and when he's restored, he shouldn't forget to restore his brethren.

And upon this rock, which is the heart of Peter I, the Almighty God will establish his church"


And true to the word of God Almighty through Christ Jesus it played out during the first prosperity season of the church...




Acts 6:1 And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.


6:2 Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.


6:3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.



6:4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.


But we, the apostles will give ourselves to prayers and to the ministry of the undiluted word of the living God Almighty. They quickly recover themselves from the hand of Satan and did the right thing. Guess what


Acts 6:5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch: 6:6 Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.

6:7 And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.


And the word of God Almighty increased, the effectiveness of God Almighty increased because they stopped serving tables and began serving the living God. They set their affection on things above and not things on the earth. Please tell them to empty their account for the brethren, to supply the needs of the church. The dare need of the church is the people and not the building itself but the hungry, Sick children of God Almighty who have been used and dumped by the so called friends. God Almighty is warning you to stop stealing from the people and start working with your own hands.


Ephesians 4:28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

When you do this, and stop depending on the gift and offering of the brethren to furnish yourself and business development, and building school and college, then when you preach you will experience greatness.




1 Corinthians 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

How do you suggest the church be funded?
The church must be funded in one way or another.
The apostles of Jesus did something similar to tithing where they encourage people to sell parts of their properties to fund God's work .

I think tithing should be voluntary though. Nobody should be forced to pay.
It just unfortunate it's been abused by some so clergymen.

"In their greed these false teachers will make up clever lies to get hold of your money. But God condemned them long ago, and their destruction will not be delayed." — ◄2 Peter 2:3

EMILO2STAY:
your view on the concept of church in not right, the church is not an organization or some sort of venture that needs funding, it is a gathering of brethren who are bound together by love, faith and to share the word of God. do you actually need money to get the above mentioned?. the apostles only encouraged people to sell what they have in order to use the proceeds to give to those in need not to build or maintain a house they call church. pastors today use this tactics to yahoo people into paying them tithe, the tithe doctrine is actually what lead me to discover that 90 % of pastors world wide are fake. the tithe doctrine of today is totally wrong and should not be practiced at all.
