If the pastor had had an elder team around him, assuming that the member was actually out of line, pastor could have simply told him that the details were handled by the elder team. However, even better all regular givers and member should receive reasonable disclosure of where the money goes. That way they are responsible in their giving and are free to give even more. The attitude of that pastor was a stubborn carnal attitude that stinks to high heaven.
