There are many cases in the world that non Christians especially Muslims, are paid lots of money to join Christianity. There are people out there will join for the sake of money. But they are fake Christians. They only want alot of membership.
I know an ex-Christian who was asked to look for Muslims to convert to Christian. And both will get paid few thousand dollars. Is Christianity about membership and business?
See this video abt fake Christians.

If that is true, then where do I go to get myu money. I never got paid for my conversion.
Nor in over 50 years in the ministry, having traveled around the world and spend much time in Muslim and other religion countries, have I ever seen or heard of a person being paid to convert.
Can I be convinced that there is a splitter group out there somewhere that has paid people? Maybe. There have been cultic groups that have used drugs, ses, politcal power, and everything else to "convert" people. They would be a very, very, very small splinter group - and probably not truely Christian to start with, as any true Christian would knew that conversions for cash would be fake. (Assuming such a group even exist)
So I resent the implication in your question that this is a practice of "many" Christians in the world. It is not.

~ Anyone can say they are an X-Christian...
~ Anyone can put down Christians...
~ Congratulations on your 100+ questions and 200+ answers... many of which are about different cultures... a lot seem to be about Chineese and other nationalities...

A few well documented facts about conversions in India.--
Missionaries fish among poor Hindu aborigines, promise them relief from fever, give them Crocin Powder as the Prasad (blessing/ Benediction ) of Yeshoo, & when the fever subsides ( with or without Yeshoo ) coax them to convert. Money, food, clothes & jobs are also offered.This I have seen.
As for Muslims, their methods are more subtle--luring gullible& unsuspecting girls promising marriage & prospects in Films, & threatening poor villagers with violence ( Moplah rebellion in kerala ) & sometimes promising lucrative jobs in Gulf. This also I have seen.
The hindus are now aware of these techniques & R resorting to violent agitations / demonstrations against missionaries & Mullahs in order to protecting their tribe.

That's only in some parts of the world. No, Christianity is not supposed to be about membership and business.

Maybe you are in the wrong part of the world. We live in a free society in the United States and I became a Christian to be FrEE of SiN. GOD will judge them, you, and me. I hope that you and I are Christians and have prayed for the forgivness os our sins continually. Have you become a Christian?
Study these scriptures and see what you think. To become a Christian:
1. We must HEAR GOD’s WORD. - Romans 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
2. We are told to BELIEVE. - To the Prison guard in Acts 16:31 Paul and Silas said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household."
3. We must REPENT (turn from) of our sins. - Acts 17:30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent.
4. We are told to CONFESS CHRIST before men. - Matthew 10:32 "Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.
5. We are to enter the waters and BE BAPTIZED. - Mark 16:16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.
6. We are told to CONTINUE TO BE FAITHFUL until death. - Revelation 2:10b Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.
Send me a note if you have questions. I am anxious to hear from you. Have a Great day.

This is ridiculous. Did your Imam tell you this? Is this the flavour of the week theology this week. No one is ever paid anything. People are helped, fed, assisted, but they make their own choice. Payments for conversion. That is priceless.
Your person has a Freudian slip when he says people are not supposed to lie, especially Christians. This shows that he can lie. It is very revealing. Muslims seem to accuse Christians of everything that they are doing. Thanks for informing me.
