MORMON CHURCH STOCKPILED $100 BILLION INTENDED FOR CHARITIES AND MISLED LDS MEMBERS, WHISTLEBLOWER SAYS | |

And I will be with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20) It doesn't say in the Bible that the New Testament would get changed by "another testament" many hundreds of years later. It says that Christians should not accept any other gospel than the one in the New Testament. I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel – 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! (Galatians 1:6-8) |

[link to newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org (secure)] What does that have to do with the $100B they did not give to charity? I did not give them my tithing money to give it all away to charity. I want them to pay for the temples, church buildings, landscaping, trash collections, snow plowing, gas and electric bills ect.. I want them to put my money in a big pot to help buy property for things like cows and apple orchards. We are preparing for the Latter-Days. We are preparing for the Saviors return. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints We are a charitable people but we understand you take care of yourself first before you can help others. Well you shouldn’t be forced to give. It should be voluntary donations. |

If either of those statements were true, why wouldn't the Church have petered out once Joseph Smith died? There have been many "charismatic" religious groups throughout History, and they generally die out once the leader is gone. And yet, the church is celebrating their 200th Anniversary in 2020. Why would Satan want such a successful deception away from the Truth of Jesus Christ to fail? What men made rich and powerful by their place in their church would want it to fail? |

The funds are for church operations or charity. The church needs 7 BILLION per year to simply operate. 1 billion per year is placed in savings or invested to have money for charity and operations. Just so happened the investment fund grew to 100 billion. So as the church grows it has fall back and growth money. No one said anything about misused for person gain or abuse of the money. The whistleblower is looking for a windfall payout for reporting the money’s existence in the investment fund. He’s hoping to cash in because not enough went out fast enough for charity. Tithing makes the church exist not just all go to charity. Though millions upon millions of dollars and man hours go to charity regularly. As always, it’s a misleading story and headline. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5921515 Doesn't sound like they're spending too much on "charity." Nope. This "help" was to build more churches and increase the donor base to increase revenue ... This sect is a trade that invests in other countries to increase profits. The most recent annual report shows that the Church’s humanitarian arm has given more than $2.2 billion in aid in 197 countries since it was created in 1985. In addition, through the Church’s welfare program, leaders of the faith’s 30,000-plus congregations regularly help men, women and children with food, housing and other temporal needs, totaling billions more dollars in assistance.

I don't know, but my guess is that the single women get assigned to men as 2nd wives and such. Seriously, many women in the Mormon church are questioning this, because its such sexist tripe. |
