Well buildings and electricity water etc are not free in the modern world and governments and banks, utilities company don't care rather its a church or not so that is part of life pretty much all churches have to deal with keeping the lights on mortgage/rent paid so there is that aspect of having a structure to worship in.My husband I love our church. But we see the good and the bad.
The church has a business side, a huge building to pay for, and prioritizes that and pulpit preaching. Tithes and offering go to that.
But the New Testament Church had some differences.
-More fellowship and doing life together
-Outreach, street evangelism
-Tithes went to those in need, not the church building
-Not just the Pastor spoke during gatherings
What are your thoughts on this?
@Ferris Bueller @Bible Highlighter @L3astAm0ngManyB13ss3d @marks @devin553344 I'm curious as to what you all think as well.
