Your Pastors Is Deceiving You by Jones4190(m): 12:05am On Feb 12, 2023
Everything in the Kingdom of God is free.
salvation is absolutely free.
you don't need to sow seed, pay consultation fees, tithes and offerings before you enjoy the benefits of been save. any pastor that ask his members to sow seed before getting a husband or a job is a thief, Matthew 10:8, instructwd them to do all this for free, "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those with leprosy, cast out demons. Freely you received, freely give.

What does Matthew 10:8 actually mean?
Here the Twelve, Jesus' disciples, where being sent out to represent Jesus like your pastor is today, He has directed them to preach the same message that He does: The kingdom of heaven is at hand (Matthew 10:7). "And proclaim as you go, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is at hand. it quiet unfortunate that today's pastor focus on heaven and forget to proclaimed the kingdom of God.
Jesus directs them to authenticate that the message is true by performing the same kinds of signs and wonders He has done: miracles of healing, casting out of demons, and raising the dead.
Christ specifies that the message of the kingdom is not something they should ever sell like what the pastors are doing today, The disciples had received it for free from Jesus like your pastor, and they were to offer it freely to all who would come and hear and believe. The heart of the good news of Jesus is the grace of God, which is always a free gift (Ephesians 2:8–9). Connecting faith to material prosperity is a grave mistake; attempting to "sell" salvation is a despicable sin.
The meaning Jesus applies here, however, goes even further. He will make it clear that on this mission, the disciples are not to seek much in the way of support. They will travel, and preach, but they will not "work" or ask to be paid.
