Tax agency set to audit Full Gospel Church
The National Tax Service (NTS) is set to audit the Yoido Full Gospel Church, targeting pastor David Yonggi Cho who is suspected of embezzling 80 billion won ($67 million) of funds, said officials of the church on Monday.
They said that the church’s pastor Lee Young-hoon told elders Sunday to prepare a room on the 11th floor of the Kookmin Ilbo’s main office in Yeouido, Seoul because the NTS will soon begin a tax audit against the world’s largest church. Kookmin is a daily newspaper run by the church.
“We will face the tax audit soon. That is the fact,” said an official of the church, asking not to be named.
The official admitted that the problem in the church is well-known to the public.
The NTS refused to comment on the issue, referring to privacy concerns for taxpayers. This is the first time that the tax authorities will have conducted an audit of the megachurch.
The announcement came while the prosecutors’ office is investigating Cho’s aides over allegedly embezzling church funds. He allegedly took 60 billion won of funds intended for overseas mission projects as well as an additional 20 billion won as severance pay without approval from the church.
The Seoul Central District Court sentenced the 80-year-old pastor to two and half years in jail with four years of suspension for inflicting 13.1 billion won of losses to the church and tax evasion worth 3.5 billion won by ordering church officials to buy stocks in his son’s company with church funds at a rate more expensive than the market price. His son Hee-joon was arrested after being sentenced to three years in prison.
Critics say that the collapse of Pastor Cho illustrates how deeply corrupt Korea’s megachurches are, after a rapid growth during the last few decades. A few years ago, SaRang Community Church, a Presbyterian church, drew criticism for establishing a luxury 14-story church building in the lucrative southern Seoul district of Seocho, spending 300 billion won.
The church’s pastor Oh Jung-hyun was also suspended from his job for six months in 2012 for plagiarizing his Ph.D thesis from the Potchefstroom University in South Africa. He was also accused of embezzling church funds during the construction of the new building. The church’s congregation has been split since then by those supporting Oh and those opposing him.

C3 Church Watch 
My question to these people (Cho and Kong and Pringle), who still call themselves pastors is: do you realise or think for a second, how huge is the damage that you have already done to the kingdom of Our Lord Jesus, how many souls instead of being saved are going to be lost for eternity, because you no longer love Him because you have replaced Him for something else.
It is so clear what is that you love most. My prayer is that Our Lord may be gracious and merciful to the souls that you had deceived and arrogantly continue to do so, and that they might see the light on time before it is too late.
The truth followers of Jesus our Lord know that His return to His planet earth is approaching fast
.
Every day we can see His words being fulfilled; that in the last days, before His return, we will see false teachers and deceivers, lovers of money earthly riches and of themselves, proud arrogant and cynical people, etc etc., and He wasn’t talking about people who don’t know Him, OH NO, He was talking about people like you; Cho, Kong and Pringle and some others like you.
