Would the guy even consider proclaiming the gospel without money being involved in it?

That was my point on the "other" thread. Some people will never see such a concept.
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
(
Matthew 10:8)
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
(
Romans 8:32)
And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
(Revelation of
John 21:6)
Apparently with flesh and blood, nothing is free. Not even the Word.
