Acts 8:18. When Simon saw when the apostles by merely laying on hands conferred the Spirit, he pulled out his money, excited and said, 'sell me your secret. Show me how you did that. How much do you want? Name your price.'
Peter said 'take your money and go. Why that's unthinkable. Trying to buy Gods gift You'll never be part of what God is doing by striking bargains and offering bribes and donations. Repent and now. Ask God to forgive you for trying to use God to make money. You stink with money lust.'
Repeat in case you missed it: Ask God to forgive you for trying to use God to make money!! They that are doing so, which are hirelings, will never be a part of what God is really doing!
Ive been to religious meetings where table after table were loaded down with 'stuff' to buy in order to help you with your walk with Christ.
Some meetings you couldn't get in to because of what they charge at the door. The poor be hung! These special blessings were for the well to do only! Welcome to the den of thieves. Get a whip!
Money changers changing your money from your wallet to theirs. Making money off of God stuff. Some getting rich off of God stuff. But the irony is this. Much of what the stuff is isn't God anyhow! And what little there might be that is God's stuff is laid on a false foundation of acquiring by purchasing. Getting the mentality that the bigger buck buys the bigger bang from God!! That's not of God. It's of satan and he loves it!
Hello!!? Anybody home? Anybody smelling a rat yet? Can't you see that this prevalent gospel of mammon is 'another gospel', not the one first delivered unto the saints? Taking from widows their 2 mites and calling it God! Satan plunging the poor into distress and using the church system to do it? Are they not hurting bad enough already? Thanks a lot 'church'! Babylon, Babylon...your fall is near!! Drunk with the blood(life) of the saints.
The gathering is to be a refuge for the poor but it is a refuge for that Guy that quit his job, put a title in front of his name and tells everyone that God told him that everyone else is suppose to support him with tithes and offerings. Give me a break...a very long and needed one!
Anybody can do that. Anyone that knows how to dance a great monologue for 40 minutes. How dumb can sheep be. I guess we haven't seen anything yet!
I guess gain is godliness. That would leave Paul out in the cold. The most ungodly man that ever lived according to the 'church's' philosophy!
Again, there are many 'pastors' that mean well with a pure heart but they really need to study this out and see that they are operating contrary to the word of God!
Be free! Be blessed! Escape the system that binds!
