A person I have dealt with, and paid money to, for services relating to water damages in a basement, calls himself a Christian. We had conversation about things relating to Christian issues while he was doing the job. When it came time to pay him, I wrote the check, ( he overcharged, too, and I'm talking about a lot of money) and he said he would send me a receipt ( income tax purposes; damage to property) It's been 6 weeks, and altho I have asked him on several occassions, he says he'll send it, but never does. I'm sure he doesn't want to claim this on his income tax!
( I need to,claim this, therefore I need the receipt)
My question is, do you feel he is being dishonest?
If he was a Christian, would he say he'd give a receipt, but live up to his word?
Is he "avoiding" paying tax on this income, and how Christian is that?
In all honesty, I trusted him completely, feeling I was dealing with a "Christian"...I guess I should have been a bit wiser, huh?
