Can a non-profit church legally have a millionaire business seminar at the church and charge money for it?
Q. I know a pastor who is hosting a millionaire business seminar at his church and charging money for it. He has a for-profit business where he speaks on different subjects and charges money for the seminars but most of them are at the church. Isn't that illegal? The pastor is charging $89.00 per person for this event.

A. In the US, nonprofits are allowed to have fundraisers. Also, they have limited rights to carry on businesses related to their tax exempt function. Churches run thrift stores and bookstores for example. A nonprofit that runs a regular business that is not related to its tax exempt activities will be taxed on that income. So, if the church decides to go into the business of running these seminars all the time, it will end up paying tax on that. And if the income from the seminars is greater than the donations and other money the church receives from activities directly related to being a church, the church can lose its tax exempt status completely.

Why church pastors tell their congregation that they church is the right church?
Q. This is so absurd, as preachers and pastors tell their congregation that their church is the right church. I believe God will punish them, because there is constant fracas, debates and confusion of its members telling people that their church is the right church. The right church is when God comes and take his people from all the churches. Even those who are Christians and had no church based, if God sees he or she fit, they all will go. The Bible says two in the corn field and one taken away, two in the bed and one taken away. God will punish these ministers who bend the bible and preach that their church is the right church. The world what do you think?

A. You Generalize too Much. My Church doesn't say that at all, Our Pastor say's to Find a Church to those who were newly Saved, doesn't have to be this one. Unless you have attended every Church in the U.S. You cannot generalize that

What is the type of church/religion that has bands and singing?
Q. I am a Roman Catholic, but my boyfriend is more of a Christian and he always talks about his old churches who would sing and have bands, and not a "boring" church like the Roman Catholic church can sometimes be. He wants to start going again (he moved here due to the military, and doesnt know where to go) so I was just interested in finding a place to go. We are from the South Jersey area if that helps anything. But just a name of a religion would help too. Thanks!

A church is an association of people who share a particular belief system, particularly used in Christianity. The Christian concept "Church" (Greek εκκλησία — ekklesia, ref. Strong's Concordance — 1577) is mentioned in the New Testament, of the 114 occurrences. The Greek term εκκλησία — ekklesia, which literally means a "convocation", was a governmental and political term, used to denote a national assembly.
