Selfishness and greed strike the Christian church today, to the point where we see some pastors who seek at all costs to enrich themselves in the church, they interpret very badly certain texts of the bible, such as 1 Timothy 5 :18 “…And the worker deserves his wages. “, 1 Corinthians 9:13 ” Don’t you know that those who serve in the temple get their food from the temple, and that those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar? “,
it is true that we serve the Lord God and we are right to deserve the salary but the way some pastors do, is often exaggerated and God is not in this kind of practice, if really we serve God, God being our boss , he has several ways to pay us, it must not only come from the churches where we serve,

And if we accept that a pastor should live by the offerings of the church where he is, according to the text of the Bible in 1 Timothy 5:18 and 1 Corinthians 9:13, it also means that even those who work at intercession, ushers, gospel singers, even those who clean the church must also live by the offerings of the church because they are also workers in the work of God,
THANKS !

I’m the one who wrote and it is based in what is happening in our many Christian Church
