Dave Ramsey's Advice to Pastors

Thank you Dave for your authenticity and love of the Word of God as it speaks against debt

The Bible does not say that debt is a sin. It says that getting into debt without repaying is a sin.

WOW, WOW, WOW!!! I'm from South Africa, I'm attending a Bible School (at 46 years old 😊) and just sent this link to our class and my pastors wife and a pastor friend in Mozambique. I have been watching Dave's shows on KZbin since December and we started the baby steps in Feb. BUT this interview pushed my conviction next, next level! Hope we could bring the Peace University to our congregation here in Centurion (Pretoria) and start raising the church of SA and Africa to their true calling. Thank you so much!!! It was revolutionary!!

Better to have private investors a "gain" in biz is only received when the biz is prosperous. Most biz.take 3- 5 yrs to become profitable. To say Never take a loan. Most biz need sufficient Captital.to be of sufficient size to be able to function. To say never. Is NOT practcile. A Co truck driver is paying off the lease for the Co. The Rich get richer. There are tax advantages etc How can Ramsay make such a statement. Tech a person is NOT in debt untill "preach of contract" Tech as soon as rental agreement is broken ( unpaved rent) then the tenant is in debt to the landlord. But most people that just rent think their NOT in debt. And most landlords esp in summer months in Cdn will evict the tenant. Have mailed the keys back. Tried to co- operate. But nope lost all our furniture etc. Cash renting farm land I considered was worse than owing. Either was OK if had a good crop. Bad crop had done some property improvement. Yes flipped the farm land actually made a good profit. What is Ramsay suggesting . The poor remain just working for the rich. The fancy churches often have mortgages too. And realestate mortgages for a house is ok. Yeh get equity if property goes up in value. Everything is a risk. Life has risks. But a loan for biz NOT a good idea. Hey better with mix of loans and private investors. Ecc "divide y portions amongst 7 or 8" it's NOT talking about y lunch on a river or lake water. Ramsay is so fill of twisted theology. Just giving itchy ears what they want to hear. Actually prmoting "Covetousness" BEWARE 1 403 830 4124 teachers shall be held "more accountable"

Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” (Matthew 19:23-24) “it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” (Mark 10:25)

[@trevorbattle9388]

Do these verses apply to those that live in America or the whole world?

[@ShannonMargaretWilson]

Yes and if we are going off what rich is then that's all of us. It's really a heart issue that money magnifies. If you earn 45,000US per year you are in the top 1% of the WORLD - yep up there with celebrities statically speaking. Jesus talks more about money then heaven and hell combined, he talks more about money then faith and love combined. Money's not the issue it's the love of money - it becomes a counterfeit God if we aren't careful

[@beanwl]

@@ShannonMargaretWilson I think it's a clear message about money and possessions from Jesus & John. Luke 12:33 Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. Luke 3:11 John replied, “If you have two shirts, give one to the poor. If you have food, share it with those who are hungry.”

[@KnowledgeIsComfort]

I love the insight of the proven process. That was a great way for someone that does not understand the importance of this method to understand the concept. I just had a 💡 moment ❤

[@leegalloway9508]

I believe if you own something or even with money that you are not willing to give away, then it owns you and thus begins your problem. I do believe in abundance to have to give to others , but i also know that it's hard not to depend, even a little on that money. when times get tough, it's easy to say oh i'm ok i have some money put back. there's nothing wrong with putting money aside for a rainy day, but make sure that your trust is in God the father and not the almighty dollar. just remember no matter how much money you have it can all be gone in a blink of an eye.

[@rubylimey7614]

Amen! God will always provide just put your complete truth in him.🙏

[@TShirtAndReeboks]

So true! But some people want God to only provide in one way and aren't willing to see when they are led by him to out money aside and be wise. I think of Joseph that was sold into Egypt and his dream about 7 years of plenty and 7 years of famine. Sometimes God wants us to be wise and listen to what he is trying to show us!

[@calvinreichelderfer7989]

6:31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 6:32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 6:34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself.

[@ifronnin]

I’m commenting at the start of the video so I’m not sure if the content will answer this. I’ve been deciphering whether I’m called to the professional ministry for almost eight years. It’s one day at a time; I’m in online seminary but I tell myself that I’m learning these things first and foremost for my relationship with God and deciphering His call on my life. A huge question is the amount of money that a pastor makes. I’m in a bit of debt but should have it paid off in the next year or two. My current job sucks but makes awesome money. I don’t know if I have the requisite character for pastoral ministry. Pray for me.

Ao you guys really believe that pastors who are 80 are still pastoring is because they dont have an retirement? Thats a complete insult! They can simply be faithful men of God who passion is still to bring people to Christ until their last breath.

[@TalkingChurch]

Hey Tony, it’s absolutely not true that all pastors in their 80’s that way! Praise God for anyone who continues to minister far beyond what the world seems “retirement age”. The problem I was referencing is unfortunately all too common, however. Pastors who don’t have a succession plan, or don’t have the financial freedom to move on and end up ministering longer than they may be effective because of it. Keep on ministering! - Logan

[@Trustbutverify2651]

One of the major problems for pastors is the cost of seminary education. Virtually all pastors who do not attend a denominational seminary take out student loans which make it very difficult for them so save because their salaries do not increase at the same rate as someone in the private sector. But pastors also are not always aware of some of the advantages they get, such as being able to divide their "salary" into salary proper and housing. Anything connected to housing is not included in their income for tax purposes. So all churches should be making it possible for pastors to buy their own homes, rather than giving them a parsonage to live in. Example: A pastor has a salary of $75,000. He takes that salary as $40,000 for his salary and $35,000 for housing. He would pay taxed only on the $40,000. Pastors need to work only with advisers who know all the tax breaks for pastors to maximize the income they do have. Even the pest control visit is deductible under housing expenses for a pastor.

[@TalkingChurch]

Very true!

[@oliviafox6745]

Churches that determine the call need to be aware of these things and convinced of their legality. My husband pastored his first church and the congregation there did not believe in setting aside pretax dollars for business expenses.

[@Trustbutverify2651]

@@oliviafox6745 I am not talking about setting aside pretax dollars for business expenses but for HOUSING expenses. The church should divide a pastor's salary into two buckets - salary proper and housing. This is entirely legal - you can check with a CPA. (My husband was in ministry in our earlier years and we also do this for our pastor.)

[@dawnmertz8303]

Some churches AND some people believe that the pastor and his family are supposed to be poor. I know that in one church, it was a control issue by a deacon who was living in sin. I grew up as a PK. This is a subject that is not taught well in churches.

[@KnowledgeIsComfort]

Yes. I’ve been in two different churches who allowed a man to be a deacon who had committed sexual infidelity and it was well known

[@oliviafox6745]

Agreed. Stewardship can only go so far if you aren't paid enough to live off of. And being bi-vocational only works if you have the time and the family situation allows for it.

@@Marcus-kr9dk all those people that you're talking about had wealth in the Bible was in the Old Testament, that was a different time when they lived under the law, we live by the New Testament now the teachings of Jesus in the apostles Jesus never preached get money he preached to deny yourself and to take up your cross and follow him, he preached love not the world neither the things that are in the world. He told her Rich Young Ruler to sell everything that he had and follow him, did the Apostle Peter say Lord we have given up everything to follow you and last but not least he said you can't serve God and money 🌑❗

[@Marcus-kr9dk]

@@jacquesminor1081 Except you can serve God and have money, it’s in the Bible plenty of times. There are also wealthy Christian’s in the new testament such as Philemon. Also do you think the old testament should be completely disregarded because it was pre new covenant? If that’s the case I guess we should ignore all of the proverbs and psalms? In Romans it says all you must do to be saved is confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead. Using your logic essentially everyone would go to hell. I seriously doubt that you or many Christians have sold all of their possessions. I actually know you haven’t because you’re interacting on a device right now.

[@touchofgrace3217]

9:59 For a pastor to have worked all of those years and retire completely broke is actually a bad witness. That they’ve not been diligent. That they not been disciplined. Wow! Where do you even start with the levels of depravity layered into that statement. At the absolute very least it is bearing false witness against pastors who intentionally forego the temporal and meaningless for the eternal and priceless and to share that with others. Money and wealth do not signal virtue nor does the lack of wealth signal being a bad witness. In Ramsey’s warped world view 💰💰 represents success and being broke signals failure. There are far more pastors who leave lucrative business opportunities to pursue ministry and live paycheck to paycheck than there are pastors who own mansions and jets. By Ramsey’s logic, it is the Joel Osteens of the world that are the good witnesses while it is the rural bivocational pastor living paycheck to paycheck who is the bad witness. 🙄 The reality is, being financially broke and spiritually rich at the end of your life is a far better witness than being financially rich and spiritually broke. Ramsey takes a secular world view and dresses it up with Churchianity jargon to make it seem righteous.

[@goldenrulebanner2896]

You do not heed Dave Ramsey's discussions regarding the gospel. While he offers sound financial guidance, his primary focus seems to be on wealth and social standing. At best, he can be considered a lukewarm Christian. He lacks faith in the gospel as it is traditionally understood. Instead, he subscribes to a personal interpretation of it. He has fashioned a deity that reflects his own likeness, resulting in the creation of an idol. It is inconceivable to possess a fortune exceeding 50 million dollars while accumulating wealth without dedicating a significant portion to assist those in need.

Dave’s attitude towards money is not biblical. He routinely tells people to destroy their family over money, whether it’s charity to a family member in need, or issues in a family business. Money comes before family to Dave, and if the two are in conflict, money wins. He also is not godly in the way he communicates, with out of control anger, nastiness and bitterness as his standard tone. He grasps for money in an avaricious way, and preaches mistreating people over money. Like a dog with a bowl of food will growl and bite anyone who gets near it. That’s Dave. Pastors should receive enough to live on comfortably. The congregation has a responsibility to take care of them. They should not get rich. If they do get rich, they should give most of it away. To the church, and to the poor. Super-rich celebrity preachers are a blight on the gospel, they are always corrupted by it, they always compromise on doctrine, they almost always fall to sin, and the fame goes to their head. And as a result they defame God’s name to the world. This is one of the greatest flaws of the American church. If your true allegiance is to God, not money, and you are an example as a teacher, you must set the example of following the word to its fullest extent, which means giving away everything you don’t need, at a minimum.

Because if you allow it, some people will drain you dry financially and emotionally, while continuing to live as they want and using others as their crutch. To the one responsible with much, much will be given, to the one irresponsible with little, little will be given

Wow. Dave sure stirred up your demons 😂

Two things Dave Ramsey will never do: 1. His ego will not allow him to sit down and debate a real theologian where he can't press their mute button. 2. He will never address the ONLY time when Jesus calls anyone a Fool; a man who took the Dave Ramsey advice a fool in Luke 12:16-20.

As someone who has been in the Dave Ramsey calling queue, it is all theater. He doesn't listen to his callers to understand. He will be "nice" to one and then blast the next. It's a schtick. His advice is good for making money...but it is theologically bankrupt. Jesus says, "take up your cross...." That doesn't mean "poorness is next to Godliness," but it certainly doesn't mean "live like no one else so that in this world you can live better than everyone else." Dave has good money advice. He is selling with Jesus' name attached. Dave says: You have to transform your behavior. Negative. You have to be Born Again, and the Spirit will transform your heart (Rom. 12:2). Dave butchers that verse. Take Dave's money advice, and you may die rich. But you may hear Jesus say, "Away from me, you evildoers. I never knew you. (Mt. 7:21-23) This is the one teaching from Jesus that Dave will never interact with: Luke 12:16-21 ESV [16] And he told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man produced plentifully, [17] and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ [18] And he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. [19] And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.”’ [20] But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ [21] So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”
