(2Co 11:7) “Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?” There are some churches that teach every pastor should follow Paul’s example of not taking money from the church. Our next verse should correct such error: (2Co 11:8) “I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.” (See also 1Cor 9:6-12).
