Yoido Full Gospel Church is the largest church in the world. Currently 30 elders are accusing Senior Pastor David Yonggi Cho and his family of stealing at least $500 million. Much of which came from donations.
Given worldwide corruption in mega churches, is this a surprise? I think not.
Some of the interesting bits of the money include:
$18.7 million severance pay when he stepped down as head paster that was given without knowledge senior church management and about $60 million for "special missionary expenses" that are unaccounted for.
This follows on the heels of another church scandal where it's alleged Cho paid out nearly $3 million to keep an extra marital affair quiet.
Cho also publicly said the March 11, 2011 Japan earthquake was God's retribution.
Will this controversy be the end of the Yoido Full Gospel Church, or will its followers still blindly follow their pastor?
