THE BLATANT AND SHAMELESS THIEVERY BY THE LEADERS, PASTORS, PRIESTS, MINISTERS AND ADMINISTRATORS OF RELIGIONS

 

It is evident that in every fellowship, worship gathering or mass in churches and chapels that their members and followers whole heartedly give their money as offerings or contributions to the church coffers.

 

Each member fervently believes that when they make such offerings to their respective churches, God will bless them a hundred times over.

 

Due to this teaching and belief, each member of the congregation sets aside a portion of their hard-earned money so that they may have something to offer during days of worship, mass, or fellowship gatherings.

 

Over time, we can discern that the administrators or ministers of the various religions are the ones enriching themselves and their members are still poor and suffering.  The church leaders are the ones enjoying the fruits of their members’ labor.  Thus, the administrators and leaders get rich while their members and followers continue to suffer.

 

The question is:  “Is the real intention of making money offerings to make the leaders and administrators of the religions rich?”

 

Let us read what the Bible says: In the early days of Christianity, are the leaders and ministers the only ones living off comfortably from the money offerings of their members?

 

And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

Acts 4:32KJV

 

“And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul:”–As written we can determine that the early Christians were of one faith and belief.  A clear example of such unity in faith is the membership of Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC).

 

“neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.” – Every INC member is aware that every church, chapel or structures that were built by the ministerial administrators are not owned by their leaders.  They believe that it is the property of each and every member of INC.

 

And with such great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

Acts 4:33KJV

 

This is the teaching of every Christian denomination.

Question:  Do they have poor and suffering members?

Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold.

Acts 4:34KJV

 

“Neither was there any among them that lacked:- It is clearly written that in the days of early Christianity, no member was in need nor poor.

 

“for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold.´-   this is quite disturbing because the early Christians never desired material blessings; instead, they SOLD their possessions and gave the sale proceeds to the church leaders.

 

You may ask: “How come there were no poor members in the early days?”

Is it because they are always giving money offerings to the leaders and ministers?

 

Regarding the monetary proceeds of the sold properties, were they kept and considered owned (personal properties) by the administrator or apostles?

 

And laid them down at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he has need.

Acts 4:35 KJV

 

“and distribution was made unto every man according as he has need.” – The apostles and administrators never kept the money offerings and considered it their own.  In the case of INC, the money is only kept in the church’s treasury.  It should have been DISTRIBUTED to the members according to their need.

 

It is made clear that all money offering and gifts to the church should have been DISTRIBUTED ACCORDING TO EACH MEMBER’S NEEDS.

 

This is the reason why it is written that “Neither was there any among them lacked” or were poor among the early Christians because, the administrators or leaders shared the “bounty” with the rest of their community.

 

This means that the only reason why the members continue to be poor and indigent is not that they are being “tested” by God but because the current CHURCH LEADERS and administrators DID NOT FOLLOW the apostles’ practice of DISTRIBUTING THE OFFERINGS AND GIFTS TO THEIR MEMBERS.

 

It cannot be denied that existing and current ministers deprived their membership the blessings that is rightfully theirs.

 

Let us read what is written in Hebrew 13:16 that the current ministers are using to encourage their members to make money offerings.

 

But to do good and to communicate forget not;

for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

Hebrew 13:16 KJV

 

According to what is written, God is truly pleased not only with doing good but also with making such offerings.

 

When the word “offering” or “sacrifice” was mentioned, people immediately think of giving money to the churches where they belong.

 

Question:  “Who should be keeping or handling these money offerings?” Should it be kept and managed by the church leaders and administrators?

 

Let us read 2 Corinthians 9:6-9:

 

But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity; for God loveth a cheerful giver.

And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth forever.

2 Corinthians 9:6-9:

 

“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.” – this scripture passage is what the religions us to convince people to offer great sums of money to their church.

 

“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity; for God loveth a cheerful giver.” –This the reason why some members who may have insufficient means to support their daily subsistence, do not forget to make money offering to their church.  This they do with a cheerful disposition.

 

The question is:  “to whom should offerings be made to ensure that God is pleased?  To the Catholic Church?  To Iglesia Ni Cristo?  To the Protestant churches?

 

As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth forever.

2 Corinthians 9:9 KJV

 

We should be giving to the poor not to the religions!

 

No wonder, they continue to suffer in poverty because the religions took their share of the blessings that should have been given to them.

THE HARSH AND CALLOUSED THINGS THAT THE MINISTERS DID IS THIS:  INSTEAD OF HELPING THE POOR AND NEEDY, THEY TOOK THEIR MONEY (WHATEVER LITTLE THEY HAVE) IN THE FORM OF MONEY OFFERINGS!

 

Over the span of many years, we were being taken for fools and robbed by these ministers, pastors, and priests.  They did not distribute the portion that God has set aside for the poor and needy.  All of us were willing accomplices and all these were done with our complete knowledge and cooperation!

 

We have become aware of this revelation because judgment time has come and the opportunity to disclose the true nature and character of the religious leaders as well as their thievery from all their church members is now at hand.
