While you guys are debating whether or not a pastor should live a lavish lifestyle, please consider asking God to give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of his Word. The Bible states that if we know how to give good gifts to our children how much more will our heavenly father give unto his children. According to II Corinthians 8:9 "though Christ was rich, yet for our sakes he became poor, that through his poverty we might become rich. To reject prosperity is to reject one of the reasons Christ gave up his life. Don't be deceived by what others are saying, you've been redeemed from the curse of the law; which was spiritual death, sickness and disease, and POVERTY AND LACK!!!! So the blessing of Abraham my come on the Gentile. As you know the blessing of Abraham made him VERY rich. Prosperity is available to every believer, God has no limits, his riches are boundless, fathomless, endless, inexhaustible, and incalculable. This is part of your inheritance, read the word for what it says not from what tradition has taught you....God Blessless
