Do You Attend A 501(c)(3) Reichskirche?

The Protestant Reich Church, officially German Evangelical Church (Deutsche Evangelische Kirche) and colloquially Reichskirche, was formed in 1933 to merge the 28 regional churches into a unified state church that espoused a single doctrine compatible with National Socialism. source

Do you attend a church that is controlled by the state? Does the government influence what comes out of your pastor's mouth? If your church has applied for and accepted 501(c)(3) status, then the answer is yes. IRS Publication 1828 explains the exemption:

Churches and religious organizations, like many other charitable organizations, qualify for exemption from federal income tax under IRC section 501(c)(3) and are generally eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions.

The Bible does not explicitly forbid this, so thinking is required which places most of the brainwashed public at a disadvantage from the outset. This is what the Bible does say:

Matthew 22:21 They say unto him, Cæsar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Cæsar the things which are Cæsar's; and unto God the things that are God's.

The Bible tells you that if Caesar imposes a tax, then you are to pay the tax. But when Constantine starts building churches and paying pastors, should you line up with your hand out to receive your allotment of bread and circuses? Tax exemption does exactly that. One source (link) places the value of religious tax exemption at more than $71 billion per year. There are many organizations fighting to end religious tax exemption, but they do not understand that it is part of Satan's scheme to influence what is taught in those churches. It will end, but not until it is replaced by jail sentences and executions for those who speak out of turn.

Accepting tax exempt status makes a pastor a hireling. A pastor should trust God to provide what you need, but modern churches only care about the bottom line and those who become pastors are brainwashed with statism from birth. Modern churches are money making schemes that exist to fatten up the frauds running them and their entourage of minions. These hireling pastors do not have the Holy Spirit. They are wolves in sheep's clothing who are led by the spirit of antichrist.

 IRS Publication 1828 states clearly that a church cannot speak freely once it puts its hand out for 30 pieces of state silver:

A communication is particularly at risk of political campaign intervention when it makes reference to candidates or voting in a specific upcoming election. Nevertheless,the communication must still be considered in context before arriving at any conclusions.

Do you think that the Holy Spirit cares about your 501(c)(3) status? Well do you. What if the Holy Spirit wants you to preach something that is not state approved? What then, hireling money grubbers? I guess that you do not have to worry about that since those of you who have obtained tax exempt status do not listen to the Holy Spirit anyway. Your master is mammon rather than the Holy Spirit. But I can tell you one thing, all of those dollars that you covet do not have long to live. You can take that to the bank, actually don't bother because they are going away too.

John 10:12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

You have been told that it is regimes like North Korea that oppress the Gospel, but this is just a deception. The truth is that most churches are state churches and they give you some truth leavened with state approved lies. You in your American mega churches and fallen away denominational churches believe that you have religious freedom. The truth is that you are caught in a Satanic scheme and you are blind to it. You were warned.
