Relax. What ever the pastor want to do, let them do it. In the
end, is God who judge them, not we. Anything they do which is wrong
to the god but acceptable to the majority of us they will faced the
punishment when they are dead. (Although they say, repent to god
and you will be blah blah blah, but they die before they got the
chance, if according to that, they are going to a sad sad place
=X). So let them do whatever they want. Regarding to tithe and
offering, it is more of our personal choice. But we still need to
understand they need $ to run the church, and a place for their
member to pray and worship. But I will not comment so much on how
much $ is acceptable to spent on such stuff. If you are rich, you
tend to spent more. And giving tithe and offering, for me, is only
when you can afford to give, without expecting any return, cause we
are giving to help to spread the gospel and help to pay abit for
the church, not for the "blessing" in the prosperity theory. If it
is for the "blessing", then they are contradicting with theirself
cause they mention "Don't treat God like a vending machine, put in
$$$ and expect blessing to come out". and I belive the prosperity
theory treat god as one. Anyway, pastor something might talk
bullshit (since human make mistake, and are not perfect), is up to
us to listen and decide. If they constant bullshiting, don't go to
that church and find a new one, or backslide, or change a religion.
In the end, we usually have no control over this situation beside
complaining and commenting on the net.
