THE CHURCH AS A BODY OF CHRIST HAS NEGLECTED ITS MORAL DUTY AND OBLIGATIONS.
THE CALLED & UNIQUELY ANOINTED:
ANYTIME THERE IS THIS DISCUSSION ABOUT THE WELL-BEING OF THE ELDERLY, THE POOR, AND THE NEEDY IN THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA, WE ARE SOMEHOW QUICK TO LAY THE BLAME SQUARELY ON THE GOVERNMENT AND ABSOLVE THE CHURCH OF ANY WRONGDOING.
BUT FOR THE SAKE OF FAIRNESS, THE CHURCH IS MORE GUILTY THAN THE GOVERNMENT BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT REPRESENT GOD IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM. [MARK. 12: 17]
THE CHURCH HAS A DUTY AND AN OBLIGATION.
PART OF WHICH; IS TO ADEQUATELY CARE FOR THE WELL-BEING OF THE ELDERS, THE WIDOWS, AND THE FATHERLESS, AS WELL AS THE POOR AND THE NEEDY.
JESUS SAYS, “COME UNTO ME, ALL YE THAT ARE LABOUR AND HEAVY LADEN, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST.” [MATTHEW, 11: 28-29]
THE YOKE THAT THE CHURCH IS GIVING TO THOSE WHO ARE SEEKING REST IN CHRIST, IS NOT OF CHRIST BUT OF SLAVERY.
THE CHURCH HAS MANY WAYS OF CAUSING HARDSHIP TO THEIR MEMBERS ALL IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AND SALVATION, WHICH THE BIBLE DECLARES AS FREE. [EPHESIANS, 2: 8-9]
THE CHURCHES IN THE WESTERN WORLD SOMETIMES GIVE BACK TO MEMBERS AND COMMUNITIES, BUT THE OPPOSITE IS THE CASE FOR A CHURCH HEADED BY AN AFRICAN, EVEN THOSE IN THE WESTERN WORLD.
WHEN ARE WE GOING TO LEARN HOW TO BE GOOD AMBASSADORS OF CHRIST?
IN CONCLUSION: AS A CHURCH, WE DON’T GIVE TO THE POOR, AND WE DON’T CARE FOR THE ELDERLY, BUT TAKE FROM THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY AND RETIREMENT BENEFITS THROUGH LEVIES AND FORCEFULLY ASK THEM TO SOW SEED WITH NO THANK YOU.
YET THE CHURCH DOESN’T PAY TAX.
