Churches Have a Mandatory Exception To Filing Tax Returns
Not only is it completely unnecessary for any church to seek 501(c)(3) status, to do so becomes a grant of jurisdiction to the IRS by any church that obtains that State favor. In the words of Steve Nestor, IRS Sr. Revenue Officer (ret.):
"I am not the only IRS employee who's wondered why churches go to the government and seek permission to be exempted from a tax they didn't owe to begin with, and to seek a tax deductible status that they've always had anyway. Many of us have marveled at how church leaders want to be regulated and controlled by an agency of government that most Americans have prayed would just get out of their lives. Churches are in an amazingly unique position, but they don't seem to know or appreciate the implications of what it would mean to be free of government control."
The apostasy abounds in so many ways. Choose this day whom you will serve. We can't have it the world's way and God's way. Pray that God opens eyes to see and ears to hear in these last days. The harvest is bountiful, the workers are few. Let us go into the fields and gather for the time draws short.
And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13
Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near. Isaiah 55:6
The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. Lamentations 3:25
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Matthew 7:7-8
