Subject: Children for Jesus Church
Dear Sirs
You explain in your DPR that Children for Jesus is the name of a bank account set up when JK worked with Mar[t]ha Morphew. I believe that to be honest and correct, but can I simply ask, how has that become a church?
'Children for Jesus' is the name given to the bank account set up many years ago during the time PJK worked with Martha Morphew. The name of the bank account has been
retained and receives most of the funds transferred from the PJK before they are distributed to the various branches of the work.
For the record, we attach below a copy of I-page of the submission made by LEFC to the Dept of Christian Religious Affairs after the request for information in June 2019.
Hopefully, this will allay suspicions regarding the integrity of the CSL Accounts.
P96
On the very next page (97) we then have the names of 32 churches allegedly submitted to the Department of Christian Religious Affairs (DCRA), all of them named as “alias Children for Jesus Church…” you put that “operating as” could be substituted for “alias”.

Although this submission is stamped with the stamp of the DCRA,
the department has confirmed that Children for Jesus Church is not registered with them.
Can you please explain how a bank account becomes a church or even group of churches? You have two seminary lecturers amongst yourselves, one so precise he is unashamed to refuse to investigate child abuse due to a supposed breach of procedure of Matthew 18:15-18, surely it is a simple matter for Messrs Kay and Buss, to explain how a bank account can become a church, and provide the necessary biblical references. If they struggle, you can always seek the advice of Poh Boon Sing, an expert on church government, maybe he has dealt with the precise point in The Keys of the Kingdom or Garden Enclosed? He could tell you if it was common practice amongst 17th or 18th century particular Baptists.
On a very basic level doesn’t a church need to be made up of living people, professing faith in Jesus Christ?
When I raised this issue with Richard Clarke (the one whose word I should implicitly trust) I was told I had an overactive imagination. My request to him for details of the Children for Jesus Church – members, constitution, statement of faith has never been answered.
To a retired fraud investigator, it appears as a very obvious and blatant fraud. Just take an old bank account, declare it to be a church, and receive large amounts of money into it. I have known of sham metal trading companies, with a turnover of millions having a company addresses of a garage or a cow shed in India, but they were legally registered, but I have not known of just having a bank account and declaring it to be a church or a company, not registered with any authority, no address, no members, and then simply receiving large amounts of money into it.
Please consider for yourselves if the following verses are not true of you – not in relation to an idol, but to this matter – you just cannot understand a bank account is not a church.
Isaiah 44:19-20 And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten it: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree? 20 He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?
With best wishes,
Bill Goodman
