The early church was overseen by a plurality of elders. We are accountable to each other. The role of pastor is a position of servant-hood, not a high priest or a surrogate/pope.
Not against buildings here.
I don't know anyone who is against someone tithing their money. You know it is about twisting scripture out of context and scaring people into submission--pay up or reap horror in your lives.
UT they are telling the sick, and dieing to pay up. You see anything wrong with that?
