Rather than doing your church activities for material pursuits, you must carry on the activities centering on the faith.

Regional leaders cannot promote progress unless they can show an example in their life of faith and lay the foundation to raise the members.

A leader is not someone who can give commands, but someone who can show the example and lay the foundation on others' behalf. In other words, this is the type of person that Abel should be. Only then, you can become the representative of God and someone who can give on His behalf. This is the reason that we say that the position of Abel is where one can give on behalf of God. Is someone in the Abel position supposed to receive or give? [Give] What is the position that is supposed to receive? It is Cain. You are sure about that, right? [Yes] Then, if a leader is indebted to his members, would the group or organization develop? Would God bless it? Would God be with it? [no] Why? Why not? It is because that is not the Principle. So, Abel is protecting the Principle and walking the Principle path forever. There, Satan cannot invade. (76-337)
