I remember back in 2016 when Pastor Clarence Sexton (1948-2023) was hounding his members at Temple Baptist Church in Tennessee for $1,000,000 in donations to renovate Crown College. I love Pastor Steven Anderson's sermon titled, "The Bible College Scam."
I don't like it when money becomes such a big issue to covetous pastors that they're continually hounding their people for more, more, more. If your ministry projects are so overly zealous as a pastor, that you have to constantly pressure the saints to “give until it hurts,” you're being unethical and need to back off and get realistic in your plans.
The churches are shrinking while the Bible colleges are growing. I've seen churches where the spirit of the service was killed by a pastor constantly browbeating church members for more money. I love how Faithful Word Baptist Church handles God's money. They don't save any money, they invest all of it each year into their soulwinning ministries. Damn the torpedoes! I've heard Pastor Anderson sarcastically sing, “We'll rent 'til Jesus comes.” I love it!

Jesus Warned No Man Can Serve Two Masters
I love the following passage spoken by Christ Himself, in which He explains that no Christian can pursue money and still at the same time please God...
Matthew 6:24-34, “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.”
The reason why 99% of so-called “ministries” today are shallow, dead, doctrinally corrupt and couldn't care less about individual people is because they are serving their bellies (Romans 16:17-18). I'm talking about the cesspool of iniquity at Pensacola Christian College (PCC) and their damnable Lordship Salvation heresy. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!!
PCC takes in a disgusting $175,000,000 per year. That's blood money! That's filthy lucre! At PCC the cult system always comes first, but individual people do not matter. They have the letter of the law that killeth, but they do not have the Holy Spirit who giveth life. PCC is a deadly religious cult that I cannot warn you enough to please avoid at all cost.
God has promised to take care of His saints. You don't have to sell out like PCC to the love of money (1st Timothy 6:8-11). You may not become wealthy financially, but God will always provide food and raiment. Philippians 4:19, “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
