Be careful, who you take counsel from - The heart of the gospel is freedom. Jesus did not step into our brokenness, carry our sin, and go to the cross so we could exchange one master for another. He came to set captives free. Free from sin. Free from fear. Free from manipulation disguised as spirituality.

Throughout history, religion has sometimes drifted into control. Rules layered upon rules. Demands dressed up as devotion. Financial pressure framed as faithfulness. But that is not the pattern of the New Testament.

The apostle Paul wrote that where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. Not anxiety. Not coercion. Not a price tag attached to God’s blessing.

Christian giving is an act of gratitude, not a payment plan for favor. It flows from joy, not intimidation. The early church gave generously because their hearts had been transformed — not because someone demanded a number.

When the gospel is preached clearly, burdens lift. When grace is understood rightly, chains fall.

If what you are hearing leaves you feeling condemned, controlled, or crushed, step back and measure it against Scripture.

The voice of Christ leads to freedom, not financial fear.


Walk in faith, rest in grace, and trust the One who walks beside you.

In His love and grace,
