Today's Christian Church Does Not Lay Up Its Treasure in Heaven

It is content to build it up here on Earth, at the expense of its followers and there needs.  This is but one example of how the Catholic Church is notorious for doing this.  But, to be far, and thought the Catholic Church has much to account for, they are hardly an exception to the rule.  Any evangelical "megachurch" could serve just as well to illustrate the same point.

Why, in God's name (literally) do Christians allow their churches to serve both God and mammon, or at least attempt to do so?  They are co-conspirators in their churches' larceny, and stupid enough about it to not even get a share of the profits.

Jesus weeps, and so do I.  But please read the last four paragraphs of the linked article above.  That way, you will be blessed by the story of someone who understood how to bring good news to modern humankind.
