3) A Leader's Management of Money

Public money is like seeds. If sown, they bear fruit. If they do not bear fruit, their value will be lost. Before dealing with money, your integrity should be mature, and your words and deeds should be congruent.

If you value your own personal properties more than public ones, you are violating heavenly law. If you value your personal integrity more than a public integrity, it is against heavenly laws. (51-291)

Faith should be the same transcending time and space. Whichever church you go to, the color of faith should be the same. A church leader should not use all of the donation from members for himself alone. Church leaders managing money under a city leader should equally donate to the higher church level. You should establish such a tradition of making donations. Are you doing it? [Yes.] (17-9)

Our church members should know this. When you handle donations and offerings that are made with heart, if you do not recognize their value you will be judged by them. You should clearly understand this.

Even a king can perish if he mistreats someone who is dedicated to God and forming many special conditions. If the king's subjects also oppose the devotee, they will be considered to be betrayers of Heaven. For this reason, Father does not treat such a person lightly. (18-143)

You make donations to Father, but he does not receive it. His policy is not to receive. What did you do to make that donation? Unless I know it and stand in a position where I am not ashamed of, I cannot receive it. Since my mentality is as such, God desires to give and give more. Do you understand? Nevertheless, some church leaders are only looking at the palms of members to see whether or not they bring donations or other things. Such leaders are not desired. Do you understand? (51-276)
