Why does the pastor even have access to the funds? The Pastor shouldn't be able to withdraw a dime (accept maybe a very small petty cash account) of money out of the church's account. You should have a treasurer who controls funds along with a treasury staff, and the church board should have to approve disbursements beyond regular bills. And all members should have access to see the finances of the church. One month of misspending should be readily recognizable at the monthly board meeting where finances should be regularly reviewed. If you give your money over to a church that does not operate in some similar fashion to the above, you're begging to get took, and its your fault.
@@MIZTTC03 Actually, yeah they should, that's what petty cash is for. Still has to account for it, but the point is to have readily available cash for abrupt needs. If you have to wait for approval, it's the same as regular funds. Petty cash is a petty, insignificant amount of money that's at the ready for unplanned needs. For instance, someone comes to the church and needs money for an emergency. Or the church gets flooded (happened at my church from a busted toilet upstairs) and you need to go and buy a wet vac right now. Again, receipts have to be brought back to the finance committee and the board reviews the spending to make sure its not the pastor spending on himself or otherwise out of line spending; but provides some flexibility for small and immediate necessities. You can choose not to have that as well, if you think there too much opportunity for abuse even then; but it's a legit option though.
These churches should be taxed because they are small businesse enterprises. They make huge profits without declaring all those monies whilst workers are being fleeced by taxes. After all, everybody must contribute towards those. This is somewhat unfair!
This pastor isn’t the only one doing this.. People need to wake up and stop giving to this greedy pastor..Church is a business ..pastors are living off members
I agree that a fair number of church leader regardless if they are known as Priest, Pastor, some other title take more than what they are authorized to by the members of the church. Yet, most of these people in these positions are supported by their Church Membership, in return they are to provide Spiritual and Moral Leadership to the members. I am sure everything he took from the Church was his personal property. That akin of a general Church Member taken with them when they leave everything they donated, or worse market value of what they donated to the Church over their time being a Member. Just saying.
Church is a big business. There’s a church on nearly every corner in the poorest communities. That’s where the money is at. Of course the preacher doesn’t live nearby. He just comes by to say a few words, collect his money and go back to his suburban home. It’s not a secret that some pastors are pimps.
Im tired of hearing a pastor say your not putting the money in my hands your putting the money in Gods hands, God don't need money and you can't buy your way into heaven.
So Sorry for these precious people. Saddest thing ever is to see people "lose their faith" in someone whom they should trust. From Small to Large churches, non-profits etc. There are ways these situations can be avoided & not enabled ...
I said it then and I will say it again here in 2022. This is why I don't go to a church or claim a religion. I believe in God I love him I believe he is my way make strong deliver protector, provider and everything Church today Is a not for the community helping people build, it's a business.
How GODLY of you to bring things to the church, then take it back with the attitude of, leaving the church the way it was when you got there....he's a thief!! I hope he's doing time along with the rest of the thieves, getting hair and nails done! Damn shame!
I was a member of a Methodist youth group at Christ church in ft.lauderdale. I came home from my 1st semester at Michigan to find out that this pastor had been embezzling from a fund that was used as a college scholarship fund and was an adulterer. I should put his name here since neither he or his family can do anything to me legally. He was defrocked by the local Methodist Bishop. What galled me was that he denied everything even after the Bishop showed him the proof.
Shame on that pastor because he will meet his maker one day. The thithes is to help the poor and not for his own selfish gains. He's a thief like many others and one day he will meet his Maker for sure. There are too much arm robbers leading the churches and taking advantage of innocent people
"Taking everything but the pews." (lol) He should have rented a bigger truck. Then he could have also stolen the pews, as well. Maybe he could have sold them on eBay.
@@lenitaa7938 It does not happen in every church but in most countries it does happen. So called religious leaders fleece the flocks at every opportunity. I have done my research.
For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 1 Peter 4:17 KJV
That's no man of God. That's church money and it should be used to pay church bills and helping people I'm the church as well as the community. SMH. I have only seen 2 real pastors in my life .
Another pastor not following God's will? I am no longer surprised by this. This taints Christianty and should not be tolerated by the parishioners or the public.
Isaiah 56:11 Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter. Jeremiah 23 god will destroy these pastors
It's all a business man, all a business lol. I'm glad the rank and file found out. I hope they get the money back, but I give my money to the people who really need it never to an Institution.
@@blackpowerful5600 If you knew me bruh, you would know I was just joking around, I'm not christian, I practice kemetic spirituality, and know the Bible is not real, jesus never existed, so you ain't telling me nothing new, but for real, I was being facesius.
Right now its one person word against another. More details are needed. Jesus said that we shouldnt judge but he also said beware of wolves in sheeps clothing. Those who are false prophets and antichrists often portray themselves as righteous. God and time will eventually show a person for what they really are inside.
If his salary adds to 10,000 in 6 moths and it came from that it was his money. If he took it as an unauthorized bonus dictated by himself, he stole. Simple. However, inmoral actions does not a crime creates. But misappropriation of funds is a crime. Time for court. Would love to be a fly on the wall at that trial. Hope it can be explained.
Count it’s a blessing that this situation was reveal now you can go home and ask Pray and ask God to Lead you to real bible. Teaching. Man of God Don’t worry God will repay 🙏
Maybe the ruckus was about cleaning out the bank account. The money would have almost clear their account. Order is order. Protocol. Salary should be considered first. Keep your own job outside of the Church. They seemingly had plans to improve the Church with the money.
Do for your elderly neighbor's, stop giving to these places. I never step foot in these places. The member's are pissed Because they didn't get it first.
THANK GOD THAT THESE PEOPLE HELD HIM ACCOUNTABLE BUT HE SHOULD BE CHANGED WITH GRAND LARCENY AND NOT ALLOWED TOO GO TO ANOTHER CHURCH THIS IS JUST ANOTHER WAKE UP CALL BLACK PEOPLE STOP GIVING YOUR MONEY AWAY TO THIEVES. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A WRAP AFTER THE FIRST PURCHASE THAT WAS NOT CHURCH RELATED.
Well, when he'd(Pastor)sign up, to be their Pastor. Did he check 'Prosperity Preacher.' 🤣 Pastor/Player/Pimp got up through with the💰(bag.) And now he's heading to another Congregation to Con! Min./Bro. Obie Amos.
Shame shame shame...that man is not even remorseful with his actions ...I wander where his greed and disgusting ways took him ...karma will eventually teach him for his wrong doings
He look like he ain’t no good. Sorry to b judgement off character, but these brief chats make him look… GUILTY!! Jesus know what this guy is doing. It’ll kick him ten fold if he committing sin..

The Bible says to put your faith in no Man and you will be known by your FRUITS.
He said, The Lord supplies his needs." So where does the money comes from?
Answer; The church members, not the Lord.
You'll know em by their fruits. Read what the fruits say, and don't think every pastor is saved or blameless! We got snakes upon us!
10k aint shit , Those mega churches are rippin asses to the tune of jet planes and mansions.

agreed I have known this for a long time and people still don't get it they are here to control us and keep people there
What else is new?? Not the FIRST and won't be the LAST😡👎🏽
Im tired of hearing a pastor say your not putting the money in my hands your putting the money in Gods hands, God don't need money and you can't buy your way into heaven.
Amen!
So sad.Prople souls is what it is all about. Help them Lord.
He's doing more than still in front of the church is stealing from God.. 🙄
So Sorry for these precious people. Saddest thing ever is to see people "lose their faith" in someone whom they should trust. From Small to Large churches, non-profits etc. There are ways these situations can be avoided & not enabled ...
God be with the congregation. Praying everyday turns out for them.

It is reassuring to know that he was defrocked! He was held accountable!
Pray at home it's cheaper

It's actually the family business! Listen to Pastor Gino Jennings! He has exposed these false prophets! Listen to Apostle Gino Jennings!
"Taking everything but the pews." (lol) He should have rented a bigger truck. Then he could have also stolen the pews, as well. Maybe he could have sold them on eBay.
Why are folk surprised about this, it happens everywhere. Pastor have absolutely no business with his/her hands in the funds.
No, it does not 'happens everywhere'!

Oh he wasn't stealing!! It was all for god! God wanted him to steal.

Pastors are human beings. Some are opportunists. Some are saints. I loved Pastor Dr. Charles G. Hayes and some others.
It’s not the pig’s fault; it’s the ignorant people that feeds him!
Where can I apply???
Whatsoever a man sows,he will reap. Be patient. God is not finished with this yet.
What building do I dwell in made by man's hands the earth my foot stool.the heavens my throne
Lol this is the normal behavior.
He stealing.
most of them do that shameful
Leave that man alone 😂😂. He loaded up maybe $200 worth of items in the uhaul. That stuff was junk. $40 keyboard and $50 drum set 😂
The devil is a liar, what was gained by putting this in the media.
This is typical...

Why is it that MONEY seems to bring out the very WORST in a Son-of a Bitch?
Stealing from God.....I sure wouldn’t want to be him come judgement day.....
Thou shall not steal.

God don't need a money !!!
bottom line
He need youre pray
all the churches a scamms
Oh my goodness whats going on i think bettet sit down.
This is horrible
In 1st Corinthians, Church & State doesn’t mix. Problems need to be solved among the Church only.
Not, if he has stole, that's a Crime, defrauding his community! If he refuses to repay and apologize, involve the police!
Dollar General?
This is not uncommon. He just got caught
correct
He's a crook
They're all lying.
I been told that by my mother that they use it get nice cars ect.
