I know you didn't mean my friend....you only brought up an important point.Most folks do give to their churches mission
BUT YOU BETTER well examine WHO that mission is connected with . Cause that money WONT GO
to those who preach JESUS CHRIST , It will go , IF THEY ARE CONNECTED to the wrong institution
ONLY TO THOSE WHO WERE TAUGHT , TOOK THE NEW COURSE .
Whenever indigenous missionaries, pastors contact Christian Aid Mission in Virginia for help, those indigenous missions are thoroughly checked out for sound doctrine and also on wise handling of finances.
There is a Christian Aid director for each area of the world to keep checking on the ministries.... although the ministries are run by the indigenous missionaries, pastors themselves.
So you can rest assured that they are preaching Christ as found in the Bible.
They also help underground ministries in Muslim countries which is great.
