Were these gifts or was someone effectively selling equity to a business with a contractual agreement to share in any profits via a contracted rate of return on equity? ROC is incorporated as a business, and there are already a number of businesses operating under that name.
Here's an interesting article, to cogitate upon ... excerpt follows ...
An angel investor or angel (also known as a business angel or informal investor) is an affluent individual who provides capital for a business start-up, usually in exchange for convertible debt or ownership equity. A small but increasing number of angel investors organize themselves into angel groups or angel networks to share research and pool their investment capital.
Angels typically invest their own funds, unlike venture capitalists, who manage the pooled money of others in a professionally-managed fund. Although typically reflecting the investment judgment of an individual, the actual entity that provides the funding may be a trust, business, limited liability company, investment fund, etc.

after giving much thought to what was so upsetting to me after all the time that has gone by, i had to ask myself weather or not this was personal to me and was i behaving in a manner that was honoring to God? then it dawned on me (filthy rags at best). however, their are so many young men, who become involved with the roc. and many of them with no one in their life to show them how to be a responsible husband or parent let alone any positive roll model in their life. all of the sudden they meet this very cunning seemingly in love with Jesus man that calls himself a pastor then only to get a cold shoulder and brush off, until you have proven your loyalty to the roc. i can promise you this the women that gave g her house and all the money to build the big house, never gets the brush off. a man who never gets personally involved with anyone in his church just happens to become so close to the women who has more money at her disposal then anyone he has ever known. doesn't take a preschooler to figure that out! there is no doubt that this may have been God who did this for g and the roc but its up to him to do the right thing with those gifts. my point is these these young men who look up to this so called pastor have nothing to go on about him. and their getting married and having children that are allowed to be raised in filthy bed bug infested houses. this guy could care less if he did care WHY WONT HE GET RID OF THE BED BUGS? WHY because he doesn't really care about anybody but himself there are so many obvious red flags i cant even begin to write a post without trying to touch base on all of them. the original point i started to make was that these young men having wives and families and getting no proper guidance or in put as to how to be a loving,caring, responsible husband and dad all they see is arrogance, selfishness and ignorance. God never gives you more than you can handle,and its obvious this couldn't be of God,because g aint handling it!
