MANY PASTORS TODAY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR SOUL, THEY CARE MORE ABOUT YOUR MONEY

“For the love of money is the root of all evil…” — 1 Timothy 6:10 (KJV)

INTRODUCTION

In this Dispensation of Grace, God has entrusted the Church with the Gospel of Grace (1 Cor. 15:1-4). Yet Scripture warns that false ministers will arise—using religion as a business, not a burden for souls.
Paul warned the Church that not every preacher is sent by God (Rom. 10:15).
This message is not an attack on true pastors, but an exposure of wolves who exploit Christ’s sheep.

PROFIT OVER PEOPLE
Philippians 2:21 — “For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ’s.”

Explanation:
False pastors prioritize offerings over obedience, attendance over truth, and wealth over souls.
Sub-Points:
Money becomes the mission (1 Tim. 6:5)
Giving replaces the Gospel (Gal. 1:6-7)
Church becomes commerce (Matt. 21:13)

PULPIT PERVERTED
2 Corinthians 2:17 — “For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God…”

Explanation:
The pulpit is turned into a platform for manipulation, not proclamation.
Sub-Points:
Scripture twisted, not taught (2 Tim. 3:7)
Truth diluted for comfort (Isa. 30:10)
Sermons aimed at wallets, not hearts

SHEEP STRIPPED
Ezekiel 34:2-3 — “Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool…”

Explanation:
False pastors consume the flock instead of caring for the flock.
Sub-Points:
Members drained emotionally
Members drained financially
Members left spiritually empty

DEN OF DECEPTION
Matthew 21:13 — “My house shall be called the house of prayer… but ye have made it a den of thieves.”

Explanation:
Church buildings become business centers, not biblical centers.
Sub-Points:
Programs replace prayer
Giving enforced through fear
Prosperity replaces purity

FALSE SIGNS & SHOWS
2 Thessalonians 2:9 — “…with all power and signs and lying wonders”

Explanation:
False miracles are used to validate false ministries.
Sub-Points:
Emotional manipulation
Fake healings
Miracles tied to money

GOSPEL REPLACED
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 — The Gospel of Grace

Explanation:
Instead of preaching Christ’s finished work, they preach works, wealth, and worthiness.
Sub-Points:
Blood of Christ minimized
Works exalted
Grace ignored (Eph. 2:8-9)

CONTROL THROUGH CONDEMNATION
Galatians 5:1 — “Stand fast therefore in the liberty…”

Explanation:
False pastors use fear to control the flock.
Sub-Points:
Fear of curses
Fear of leaving
Fear replaces faith

PAULINE WARNING IGNORED
Acts 20:29-30 — “Grievous wolves shall enter in…”

Explanation:
Paul warned the Church Age about wolves among elders.
Sub-Points:
Wolves wear collars
Titles replace truth
Spirit grieved (Eph. 4:30)

SOULS ABANDONED
John 10:12-13 — “The hireling fleeth…”

Explanation:
When trouble comes, false pastors disappear—because they never cared.
Sub-Points:
Hirelings run
Sheep scattered
Souls left wounded

FINAL THOUGHTS

Not every pastor is sent by God
Not every church teaches truth
Money-driven ministry is a Bible sign of apostasy
Grace-driven ministry is the mark of truth
The Gospel—not giving—saves souls
Christ—not pastors—is your Head
Paul—not prosperity preachers—is our pattern
Truth will cost you—but lies will cost you more
Right doctrine protects your soul

CALL TO ACTION

MARK AND AVOID false teachers (Rom. 16:17)
STUDY the Word rightly divided (2 Tim. 2:15)
BELIEVE & REST in the finished work of Christ (1 Cor. 15:1-4)
LEAVE money-driven ministries without guilt

CONCLUSION

God never asked for your money to save you—
Jesus already paid it all.

“Feed the flock of God… not for filthy lucre…”
— 1 Peter 5:2 (KJV)
