Impossible. Sorry. Humans by nature are sinful. Sin will inevitably lead to corruption the only adjustment is “how corrupt”? Can range from criminal to simply liking one parishioner more than another but in some way there will be corruption in your church leadership.


Then your statement has no meaning. If everything and everyone is corrupt, then no one is corrupt, everyone's just normal. But yes, then the answer is "how corrupt". And, objectively and empirically, Protestant churches are less corrupt than their peers.

Zero corruption in my church, because it's completely independent and was only founded about 60 years ago. The Founding Elders are mostly still alive.

Protestantism doesn't have a church. We believe in the invisible universal church.


I am not talking about your church specifically then. But why is it that Protestants and especially American Evangelical denominations speak with such hatred for their neighbors? Why do they always wish to persecute the vulnerable? Why do they always make excuses for Greed?

I want to understand why.

The Protestant elites have infiltrated every facet of our government. They do not believe in Christ. They believe in a man who told them you can simply do whatever you want, you can sin as much as you want, and but as long as you believe in Jesus and do not follow his wordsyou will be saved. It is a cult built upon the idea of hedonism and sin but they will convince you the others are the sinners.

They proudly say they support the separation of Church and State, a core and fundamental aspect of democracy so we do not fall victim to the horrors of the Catholic church. For what? So they could create their own personal Catholic church in every country they occupy?

To top it all off they have the gall to say the Jews control everything, while partying up with them and following every single step the Jews took to maintain economic and political control.

And just so you know if you are a Protestant and you believe these Protestant elites are doing anything for you: You're wrong. They use your religion as a means to control you and make you feel validated. That's all it is. Please do not be fooled. I strongly suggest you go read your bible. Read the WORDS of CHRIST and FOLLOW HIM not any politician.

Well in Revelation 3:9 Jesus clearly identifies the problem as a Synagogue of Satan

That wouldn’t matter to me. No skin in the race but my comment still stands they are all corrupt because people are inherently corrupt. The same as I don’t believe the Bible is the true word of God as it has been translated over and over again by man to suit their needs and will continue to be until the end of time.

The upside to this dilemma is humans also have the ability to know or learn right from wrong. So the power of choice is great.

The other great upside is most Christians believe if you are truly repentant for your sins you will be forgiven which is a light at the end of the tunnel for them.

Christianity at its Core is awesome. Implemented in today’s current society it has a lot of flaws but still achieves many great things for many people.

Still, inevitably it is not as pure as people hope it would be.

Yes, which is true as a matter of principle. "Corrupt" is a descriptor that differentiates between "non corrupt" in the context of people. If non corrupt doesn't exist, then the word has no substance or meaning.

Corruption is a spectrum

For some leaders you only need look at their eyes and demeanor. Look at Netanyahu. Even if you ignore the heinous things he says and does.

I do agree the British established Israel but it has been since evolved to an ally of another. Keep in mind Israel literally attacked us and we were not allowed to say anything about it. That's the level of control Israel has over the United States.
