Created loopholes to prevent being sued for misuse of offering money Waukegan, IL, Norfolk, VA, San Diego, CA, Fort Lauderdale, FL

The By-Laws of CFCMI were written to prevent members from suing the church or the leadership in the event funds used for tithes and offerings were misused for personal gain.

Chapter III of the CFCMI by-laws state:

"III. H. Stewardship:

III. H. 1 Stewardship: It is the belief of CFCMI that the word of God commands stewardship of that portion of God's wealth entrusted to him and is obligated to support his local church financially. We believe that God has established the offering in the New Testament as one's giving of all he or she has been blessed of by God. Every Christian should also give their offerings sacrificially and cheerfully to the support of the church, the relief of those in need, and the spread of the Gospel. We also believe that a Christian relinquishes all rights to direct or reclaim tithes and/or offerings once the gift has been made (Genesis 14:20, Proverbs 3:9-10, Acts 4:34-37,1 Corinthians 16:2,2 Corinthians 9:6-7, Galatians 6:6, Ephesians 4:28,1 Timothy 5:17-18,1 John 3:17)."

This statement "relinquishing all rights to direct or reclaim tithes and/or offerings" has been a loophole put in place to protect the leadership from lawsuits by current or former members, thus eliminating accountability.

If anyone knows a good claims lawyer who is interested in bringing the main leaders to court and recoup damamges to all former members for wrongful use of church funds, let us know.
