1 | Church staff's salary questionable | 1 Tim 3:7 | rockfordhx | 169791 | ||
Bereaniam, Thank you for posting this. It is encouraging to see believers thinking about the word of God, and questioning if the church they attend is a NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH. From what you have described above, I have to agree with BradK. The church sounds more like a business venture than a place where the word of God is taught. No where in the word of God do we see full time servants of Christ being PAID a salary. If we look at the life of Paul we see that he was devoted fully to the minisrty and yet made tents in order to support himself. I personally know ELDERS (Deacons) that do work a full time job in order to provide for a family and do not receive any money from the church for what they do. OUR SPIRITAUL GIFTS SHOULD NOT BE USED TO PROFIT OUTSELVES BUT INSTEAD TO HONOR THE LORD. hope this helps. In Christ, Nathan |
