Middle income pastors use ten-percent tithes from lower, middle income parishioners to finance the second mortgages of their churches.

I've served two pastors for the past decade. Both were marines. One was a Vietnam vet.

I've watched both incorporate through 501C3 to offer churches which were not there before.

After God tested them with their own ten-percent tithes, God entrusted them with huge overhead, second mortgages of $1,200, $1,700 and $3,100 in order to house those churches, where lower middle income families tithed their own 10% offerings.

In turn, those churches were able to feed the homeless and give away laundered clothing for free. God was able to do much with little. Woe to the rich, however, who don't give more than six percent and simultaneously withhold wages from laborers who actually did work for them.
