Why is it that whenever the church has a problem, they ask the members for help, but whenever a member has a problem the church tells him to ask God for help?

Imagine a scenario where a man that has been donating 10% of his salary to the church for 10years, got tangled in a huge problem that requires a huge amount of money to solve (maybe his daughter is sick).
Then goes to meet his “rich” pastor for help, Instead of the pastor to lend his poor member some money. He asks the member to join him in prayers so that the holy ghost will send down manner from above.
Its just like seeing a child drowning and you immediately brought out your phone and dialed 911 when you can swim.

God has already putted the pastor in the position to help his needy member, Why does he prefer to fold his hands and watch the child drown?
In some part of Nigeria, the pastor don’t just watch the child drown, he also facilitates the drowning.
Imagine members paying some amount of money to the pastor’s secretary just to gain access to see the pastor for help.

After explaining his problem, the pastor prays for him then gives a product that will help ease his pain. How the heck did the blood of Jesus end up in a container for sale?

Days are gone when we have pastors that have another job. Maybe a pastor that is also a doctor, lawyer or engineer. Nowadays pastors are only pastors, like it’s a full-time paid job.
Church activities is no longer a Sunday thing. Its an all-day thing over here.
Many church billboards be like
SUNDAY- CHURCH SERVICE 9AM
MONDAY- DELIVERANCE 8PM
TUESDAY- BIBLE STUDY 6PM
WEDNESSDAY- VIGIL 10PM…
The members always donate money in different form, each time they attend the church. Inform of different name, maybe “offering, collection, arms, fund raising projects”.
The most painful part is that members would rather donate all their income to the church than lending some to a needy family member to start up a business. They’ll rather watch that family member die of hunger then contribute money to bury him.
Well, its another Sunday. You gotta go donate your money immediately, those private jets wont fuel themselves.

As for me, I believe that God and Devil are real and we can be god or devil to one another depending on how we treat each other. I don’t care what you believe in, if you cant treat your neighbor love and respect, you are a devil.
If you read this post and love it but wont upvote it, You are a devil to me... lolzzz
