A Pastor in Arizona once said this, "When a body becomes a business, what do you call that? Most call it prostitution. So I have a question for you. Is your church incorporated?
We know that in the early congregation the body of Messiah, or the Ekklesia was not involved with the government. The problem with your church or ministry being incorporated or holding a 501C3 is that it gives the government power over your church or ministry. It gives them the preeminence, when Yeshua alone has the preeminence.
What are your thoughts on this?
