ATMs in church?

Yeah, I read that in the Christian Science Monitor. Literally money changers in the church. Kind of funny.

I never heard this before. But, I'll bet the "ATM" pastor was not a Baptist (except National Baptist), Calvary Chapel, Bible Church Movement, Presbyterian, Amish, or Mennonite.

i beleive atms are a public service from banks even with the undeniable fact that, in case you quite look into it, funds changers tables were a criminal offense adverse to God because they were interior the temple. the abode of the Lord shall no longer be defiled. for that reason the keenness of the lord became brought about do one of those situation and scripturally he ought to preserve it, yet he became nonetheless persecuted by the pharisees with faux witnesses abiding. their sin became homicide and faux witness. God required animal sacrifice and human beings of all countries needed funds changers with a view to by the animals. God commanded adverse to usury and thats what the pharisees transgressed. usury isn't only pastime and unfair contracts, even with the undeniable fact that it became also unrighteous oppression on the negative. on the instant banks are doing such quite some evils to get wealthy, they achieve this with each and every thing starting up with mortages and derivitives and foreclosure then they bypass to student loans and inflate criminally what's owed and extra pastimes then they bypass to lobbying for monopolies. an identical issues the pharisees were in charge of with their funds replacing tables. now Mega church homes have their own missions. even jesus reported to his disciple dont end them. (that were preaching an identical issues as he became) the adaptation is jesus reported they have their own rewards. and they carry forth the gospel (the position they're going to be judged is in the journey that they carry forth an apostate gospel which has the whisperings of devil or no longer) i ought to assert some extra issues yet at present my thoughts is going sparkling, i visit probable say them interior the destiny.

That's kind of stupid, in my opinion.

I think people are focusing too much on money.

Jesus told Peter to go fish and the fish he caught would have "a piece of money" in it and that he would use to pay for the taxes for them both.

I don't think people should worry so much about thithes and offerings.

But, then again, that's my opinion.

Just one more way to get more money out of the gullible. It wouldn't work at Catholic churches - usually ATMs make you take out/transfer at least $20, and Catholics rarely give more than a quarter. :)

I beleive that this is insane. Churches are not a place to worship any more they are a business designed to make a profit

I approve and would like it if they did that at my church. Just one more way to make it easy to obey God and not listen to the deceived retched world.

ATMs are the root of all evil, thats my view since i am overdrawn.

They could put video poker machines in the backs of the pews, and you could win money sometimes.

John Hagee would approve. The more money the better.
