Put God to work for you and maximize your potential in our DIVINELY ORDAINED capitalist system. -Norman Vincent Peale
The End May Be Nigh
The Housing exemption case
Billionaire Jesus is in trouble: as with bishop's congregations, communities
are starting to take a dim view of opulence and it's not all Francis' doing.
The "greed is good" gospel is wearing thin as the gap between rich
and poor widens in America. The above ruling cites the "unfair
advantage" some preachers have in housing (not having to pay for a large
portion of it). Even "compassionate" ministers like Steven
Furtick have to answer for
their excesses (see below). Many ministers (and some priests) are a part of
America's ONE PERCENT and the public is getting more wary of them with each
perk.
Proverbs 14:31 (ESV)Whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker, but he
who is generous to the needy honors him.
