Its easy to make judgements if you arent close to the situation - and to say those close to the situation dont see the whole picture.

The organization elects men to serve, but they show up to rule.

When did executive entitlement become a part of the Kingdom of God?

Obviously growth and change have to happen. If that's all it is, well and good...as someone mentioned, the wagon wheel shop employee doesn't like the invention of the car....fine. But, for me, the part of the argument that rankles me, is I have seen first hand people preach about sacrifice and then live large. It's just hypocritical. We all have to move with the times. But, you shouldn't be a religious leader preaching on sacrifice and living otherwise. And, if you ask me, the UPC does this all the time.

I'm not opposed to executive entitlement.....I dont even care if they have lavish offices, gas cards and drive fancy cars....

as long as they are being good stewards of the rest of their house
