Greed is helping more Churches into Foreclosure

The Pastors of several churches around Memphis has pulled their churches into foreclosures. So my first question is how did this happen?

The Pastors response is that "God told them to do it". Naturally when God tells you to do something he only has the best thought for you in mind, right? Would God give you something to day only to take it away from you tomorrow?

Maybe it was not God that you were talking to, it could have been another powerful God "called Greed"? You see when these pastor makes thousands of dollars a month with a few hundred members they feel that with thousands of members that they could make 10s of thousands of dollars a month.

Unfortunately this is starting to become a common site around Memphis where churches are bellying up from strapped debts acquired from building a new church. The Pastors visions of grander are just that and now they are having to back track and move back to their original church home. Nothing is more demoralizing to have something taking from you because you did not think things through. I wonder how does the Pastor keep a straight face with the church members after they realize he may have stretched the truth?

Okay their is a moral to this story, "Pastors I think that you have to rationalize who is talking to you", because if God talked to you, do you really think you would be on the news explaining why you failed?
