I am glad your initiative is falling on fertile ground...TFI has this attitude of spoiling Egypt=system=world (they apply scripture...in this case for the Israelites...at will for themselves, as it suits them), they abhor...on which they nevertheless actually rely for support (but they call it getting out the good news, as main job...).Summa summarum they want to have their cake & eat it too...tax is something for the others...I mean Jesus said that there's nothing wrong about it?!! (give to Caesar what is Caesar's) , if I understood it right...same for Paul in Romans 13...it could even be, that they would get tax reductions???...I am not familiar with it over there, over "the big pond", but in Germany, if your income is too low & you have too many expenses (children etc.)...you just don't pay taxes.Would that they cared, to be a bit more "down to earth" & doing it right...not all the time enjoying a "lawfree" zone

I hope/ am inclined to think, that you feel better now after doing what is right & good ; )

It's strange, now that they voiced...leaders that is...that they might have "many more years & decades on earth", that they would like to get a bit more normal regarding fundrising, earning a living...may be they should get some advice from the Amish or so ; )

Thanks, for keeping us informed.
