Most of them do not believe in tithe or support missions. They are argumentative and rebellious and I do not agree with them.
I have seen the leaders of these "house churches" control and manipulate people with personal "prophecys" and try to control the lives of new Christians and weak minded people. I have seen them twist the scriptures and use it to benefit their own ego.
You may think this is harsh but I have seen the abuses of these "house churches" for many years. Do you know the end result of most of them is? People that see no need to assemble in corporate worship with other Christians and are rebellious against God and His Church that He purchased with His own blood!
That my friend is why I am NOT going to any "house church" and not going to eat their casseroles!

I won't hold your attitude against Franklin Jenetzen, I just watched him this morning.

I along with my pastor Jentezen Franklin - rescued my youngest son from one that was fastly becoming very cultic. He is well balanced today and leads in a great mega-church with over 10,000 people on fire for Jesus Christ and I am thankful that GOD delivered him from a "house church."

wow, thanks for sharing this insight into what makes you tick.
It is so rare to hear clear sound from folks that really do believe God has ordained sub-masters as mediators to protect little ones from folks who promote themselves as sub-masters and co-mediators with Jesus.
Rescued! wow....wow...wow.

I hate casseroles too & Hoovie, you are mighty right! They cannot afford a BISHOP! LOL
Of course - most of them don't believe in Bishop's except the one that is sitting in the big easy chair with his Hawaiian shirt on - teaching them on the fruit of the Spirit and then how to speak in tongues. Still gives me the Hibby Jibbys!

Well, I was personally joking, but ya gotta admit I got your number!
Where I come from the office of bishop is not a paid position.

Re: More on Housechurches(less on House-a-God's)
Ok since AB was sort of blunt, I suppose I'll respond with similar transparency.
I don't much care for what he described as "black church". That includes the organ, the "gettin with it" and the whooping preachers.
And while I do enjoy historic church architect, I think The whole "house of God" stuff is way out of hand. The highly annointed Bishopric is primarily a means to build and feed the ego of the highly annointed Bishopric who want escape the accountability of peon laity.
Of course, I enjoy and appreciate my friendship with AB and am not speaking of him personally.

Headbangers? Yeah, I think Dante had some special designations for those... For the most part though, I am referring to simple personal preferences.
I have learned my personal preferences generally matter little in life and practice. There are many others to consider before me. We all have our unique likes and traditions. What matters most is that the greater body is edified.
