A Church Closes Then Sold Who Gets The Money?

This kind of behaviour is simply disgusting and should not be heard from anyone calling themselves a Christian.

Its sad that you used the moderator's patient grace to your disadvantage.

And  another one bites the dust. It just amazes m that there  are people like this that will continually register on forums that they know will not put up with their foolishness. Life for a contrarian such as this fellow must be extremely stressful and depressing.

As for the 501c3, no, a church is not 501c3 unless they apply and pay for it, and it always comes with government strings. However, the IRS has a code, 508c1a, which states essentially that a church/religious organization is recognized as tax excepted; no need to ask or apply for it, and it comes without strings. The main difference is that the IRS can refuse to give a reimbursement on giving to it, but I always wondered why we give to God's work, then expect Uncle Sam to give us some back.
