The Gospel According to St. Money

Money no doubt plays a huge role in our lives
But money must never be the chief motivator of our acts
Slowly it influences and changes us
Reduces our worthiness and stands to compromise us











The gospel is the good news Jesus brought to mankind
Jesus saves, delivers, heals…; and it’s been paid for by His death
His followers have been mandated to replicate His love
Freely we have received and freely to give

The wheel of the gospel is the Holy Spirit
The wheel of the gospel is sent men and women
The wheel of the gospel is money
All these in the right order

I have seen some brainwashing attempts to get people to give
Many have been taught to give out of fear of been cursed by God
God wants us know Him more intimately and serve Him more truthfully
Teach people to love God; giving will come naturally

So a thief drops a fat cheque and he is termed a believer
God has no need of the offerings of those that have no relationship with Him
But who cares; the money, rather than the heart of sinners is welcome
The issue of money in the church has brought mediocrity to the pulpit
You become a pastor because you are loaded and not because you are anointed

The result is the disaster in the camp of the righteous
The house of prayer is reduced to a motivational center
The power as of old has fast receded as the god of mammon is on board
St. Monies gospel speaks but what about the gospel of Jesus?

If you love me, feed my sheep…
A well fed sheep will only be too glad to give out milk and beef
But when we twist the gospel because we want men to support…
Projects and ideas birthed by personal agenda
We go about prophetlying funds from God seekers

Stay in step with The Holy Spirit; He is the Helper
God always provides for the vision he initiates or endorses
People’s attention must be re-directed to the loving Saviour
God places great value on each life as Jesus death affirms

The gospel undiluted, unpainted by greed is God’s standard, this must be your gospel

If you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.
Colossians 3:1,2
