Who should Support Me?
First of all, it is God who calls, not men, to the ministry of God.
Many have wanted to support me as if I am already called by God to his ministry.
There was a pastor who wanted to sponsor me, I told her, the American Christianity is failing far worse than other countries, that she should take a look in the mirror. How can a poor said to another poor, here, I support you, as if she herself doesn't need the support. She should further her Bible study, in apologetics, in Church History and theology. In fact, many degree holding preachers in the United States should spend more time studying the Bible and less time evangelizing. So they wouldn't allow the heretic notion of co-serving the Lord with non-christians, etc.
If I hear something like this from such christians again, I will say: No, get behind me, because my calling is not yours. You want to dethrone Christ in order to make peace with everyone else. I, on the other hand, want to proclaim the Lordship of Jesus Christ to all. If you see the throne of Christ through my ministry, then we'll talk about your offering to God and support.
