religion and morals Should Churches Be Taxed?

[Numero Uno]

Should churches pay tax since they generate so much money making the pastors and prophets so rich while the church continues to ask for money to accommodate their lavish lifestyles?

 

[Black Panther]

It's biblical to ask for tithes and offerings and it's a blessing to have the opportunity to do so.

So pastors telling you what the word gives to you as a form of worship, taking care of the church's bills and a tool of building wealth is actually the correct thing for them to do.

P.S. Not all pastors use this money correctly, but some of them do.

If churches have to pay tax how else will they pay for the buildings, utilities, programs, etc?

It’s only a few mega church pastors and popular prophets compared to many other pastors who in actual fact are small scale.

They should get creative. Sell books, have concerts... Whatever. These prophets need to stop hounding people for money in the name of Jesus and making claims about miracle money.

Don’t condemn all pastors for the few that are dishonest. Calm down.

So by your rationale, I can have a shrine and call it a church as long that’s my idea of church?

Why do you say that?

Because they worship the prophet more than they pay attention to the gospel.
