The Bible says "the love of money is the root of all evil...," as if that's enough, but again it says "those WHO desires to be Rich shall fall in to temptation..."
Money is cool, money is nice. When you have it, that's okay! It's good for you. But when you don't have it, don't follow dubious or crook ways just to make some......
Because of money, today my Church (ECWA GOSPEL CHURCH MANCHOK ) in kaura local government area of Kaduna state Nigeria almost scatter into pieces....
ECWA consist of 3 levels.
*G.C.C level. this functions as the federal government in a secular settings.
*D.C.C level. This functions as the state government in a secular settings.
*L.C.C level. This functions as the local governments in a secular settings.
Now that's a brief about the organography of my church (ECWA).
It's a shame to the Christian faith as we could see people we call pastors and Reverends fighting for money at the expense of the spirituality of we the members....
The local Church will collect money mend for pastor's salaries but few individuals in the D.C.C will just hijacked this money and squander it without even paying the pastor's..... Then the elders of the Church reported to the G.C.C.
Now while the service was on today these broot of vipers in the D.C.C stumped in with the purpose of suspending the church pastor and his elders for taking the case to the G.C.C.
The members of the Church collectively resisted.
It's quiet unfortunate this happened in the church (body of Christ).
This is quite pathetic. Happening in a Religious center.
There's more I might have to say, but don't want to say much. Even the church of God, especially in Africa know they need discipline. God save his congregation.
Retsteemed.
