SMOKING
GUNS…
…AND
LOTS OF THEM!
1.
All
(or nearly all) of the ICOC churches and other corporate
entities (including HOPE worldwide,
LTD) deliberately defrauded
the US Government when applying for tax-exempt
status.
2.
HOPE worldwide,
LTD
has routinely and deliberately committed multiple acts of misrepresentation
and conversion of funds.
Further, there are many cases in which HOPE has contributed to
the inurement
of both HOPE employees and ICOC employees.
3.
Funds have been regularly and deliberately converted from
"contribution
for the poor" collections to other
uses that have nothing to do with "the poor".
4.
Funds have been regularly and deliberately converted from
"Special
Missions Contribution" collections
to other uses that have nothing to do with
"missions".
5.
Funds have been regularly and deliberately converted from
"regular contribution" (said to be for the local
functioning of the church) to other
uses.
that have nothing to do with the local church.
6.
Contrary to ICOC’s own written policy, funds collected for restricted
purposes were not kept in restricted
accounts, but routinely went into the general coffers.
7.
Leaders conspired to mislead the members as to the high
level of their compensation, boasting
about what great financial "sacrifices"
they were making to have given up their lucrative worldly jobs
in order to serve in the ministry.
8.
Leaders have deliberately concealed early (and later) acts
of unconscionable immorality in order to
protect the pristine image of the church and to keep the
members’ cash contributions coming.
9.
Leaders have routinely and deceptively assured
the members that the financial affairs
of the church were handled with utmost righteousness, and that
they need not be concerned with such.
10.
Members and former members alike have been illegally refused
in their attempts
to see the books. Through methods such
as intimidating the interested party into withdrawing his
request, lying that it was "illegal" to show the
records, putting people out of the church for demanding to see
the books, etc. they have protected these records with great
diligence.
11.
Leaders have illegally inured
(benefited) from the profits of the church.
12.
Members have been coerced
into giving their money under threat of Hell.
13.

for the "charity"
run by the church (HOPE worldwide,
LTD).
14.
Members were given misleading
information to use while soliciting
funds for ICOC and for HOPE
worldwide, LTD.
15.
The ICOC deliberately acted in ways that were out
of character with their stated beliefs
and practices because such hypocrisy was necessary to keep the
money coming in as desired.
