It's sort of a "trust, but verify" thing. It's just a question. It's not an attack. I only attack people I know. . . .

No attack taken. I have been around apostolic churches a LONG time and the vast majority of pastors I know "control" the entire tithing account. If they control it, the IRS considers it to be income. I haven't taken a poll on pastors, but my statement is based upon my experience. I would be willing to have others state the contrary, but I'm not sure they can.
