The study of mobilization and organization of money in churches is not new: it is actually a staple of Western Christianity where documentation is a routine practice and openness is accepted as a norm of existence for most religious bodies.

I Whole heartedly agree that accountability is a must regardless of what ever organisation purporting
to be spreading the Gospel. If they claim to be preaching the Gospel then they must be held accountable by that Gospel. Thou Shalt NOT Steal. may be the 6th commandment but Jesus stated, "If ye love Me, Keep my Commandments" and He meant all 10 of them, not 9 or 8 or 7 but He also declared that if we break just one then we are breaking all. That will stir the pidgeons. Rob
