sorry boss. Every member of my church has access to the financial details of the church, we usually have annual account and general meeting. so many churches have theirs too. there Is sooo much you dont know and ur bias wont allow you humble urself and learn. I pity ur state. BTW the primary responsibility of the church is not charity.
The primary responsibility of any church is preaching Christ through Words( crusades,outreach,biblestudy,evangelism) and Deeds(charity)

How much does your church burn on charity as a fraction of your annual revenues?

it's very obvious u don't want to learn. Ur mind is blinded already. U keep saying same thing over and over. U ask to many questions yet u hardly reply the reasonable ones u've been asked. Feel sorry so u. Like the other poster suggested. Humble urself and learn.

I have over a hundred friend who are pastor and occupy sensitive positions in the cooperate world. So u expect them to leave as though they are not rich just because they are pastors.

NB; the good things of life belongs to those who preach the gospel. Deal with that

That's because your product is empty words. You sell NOTHING for cash. It's like the derivatives market, except that they have an office building and you have a church.

The good things in life belong to preachers and derivatives traders. There is a special karma awaiting their offspring down the road.

Pastors who are working are entitled to enjoy the fruit of their hands wherever and however they can.

Those who live off offerings must have a dead conscience to plunder it with high life. They are animals not humans

Please just do me a favor, go ask your church for financial statement of where the offerings and tithes are going; if they refuse, then suspicion bell should ring in your head. Otherwise you have been BRAINWASHED.

It depends on the extent of pastoral work. For instance, a kids/sunday school pastor is more or less free for the entire week save may be sunday and Saturday. They can be gainfully employed over the week without much effect on their calling.

How would somebody working 12 hours a day for 6 out of 7 days be effective on Sunday?

My problem is with those who live like Hollywood superstars off offerings. These brute beasts are blaspheming Christ
