Let the Chuch be the help to the comunity

So disappointing how the "church" which claims to be the body of Christ, its not as it should be, its operated like a corporate company..with a board of directors, a CEO the one who claims to be the "Pastor", they sit down a strategic plan, put together constitution for God, BUT GOD SAYS "FOR I KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE FOR YOU, FOR MANY ARE PLANS IN A MAN'S HEART BUT THE PURPOSE OF GOD PREVAILS, so where do you pull that kind of weight to put down a vision and mission for God, who are you?

You call yourself the founder of what..what ministries, what did you find because if you are to make it God ministry, its been there before you were even formed in your mother's womb, you make so appealing. its like your inventory, come on don't be ridiculous sir/mam where is God in all this?

Don't misuse the name "Church" because this is the body of Christ, not your investment company/organization, you make people tithe and offer so you can drive big cars, live in a big house and be monied.

What good does it do for you to be living an earthly luxury yet the person next to you is hungry, has no shelter, what is the tithe and offering for? if people come to Church and they don't get help, as children of God we have to love, share, care for one another, not to be selfish boss people around telling them that you need to get paid for praying for them, or preaching to them..WHY?,

For the word of God says: "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. but its so bad because the pattern of the world is now the pattern of the "Church" the system of doing things is of the world.

The Church is the body of Christ, and Christ is the heard, anything that is done there its ordered by God, because the heard is in charge of the body, so disappointing because the "Pastor" has taken over the place of Christ, he is now running things, which is absolutely wrong, putting visions, missions yearly planning, year themes where is God in all this?,

There is always the preachings of prosperity so people can be worldly minded and make money to come and tithe AND OFFER for the "Pastor" to have got money, all this is wrong..i need the truth of God, give me the truth for it will set me free, freely given freely give, why should i pay you for the truth that comes from God, it's not your product, you package it into CD/DVD and book to sell something that God gave freely to you, only to store earthly treasures using the GOSPEL, no no no..truth be spread ?#?JesusisLord?
