Why does EOC lack empathy toward the poor?

All the religious hospitals in Ethiopia are built and run by the Catholic and Protestants. All bibles translated to non-Amharic languages are either by the catholic or Protestant churches. Even the first bible translated into Amharic from Geez in the 1830s for King Sahle Sellasie was by German Catholics.

Not a single clinic exists in Ethiopia built by the EOC. Not a single primary school exists in Ethiopia built by the EOC.

Yet, EOC is one of the richest churches in the world. But, it's cruel. Every day, the EOC is a witness to the poor dying of diseases, mothers dying from labor in childbirth, under-development from rampant illiteracy.

A devil may be living in the EOC.

That was my question for years. Are they corrupted thieves filled inside EOC? They earned so much money from the followers yet haven’t built a single school, hospital, or place for the needy or poor. They don’t even feed the poor. They hate the poor and needy. EOC is a scam organization under God's name.

It's filthy rich. It receives annual grants from the Faith budget of the US. It receives grants from its membership in the Conference Eastern Orthodox Churches that include the mighty Russia, oil rich Arab countries. It receives donations from rich Ethiopian business owners. It receives donations weekly on a prayer day from its no-less 50 million Ethiopian followers.

It builds churches throughout Ethiopia and maintains them. It builds colleges and universities and operates them. It offers scholarships locally and globally. It built churches in Jamaica and South Korea, and maintains them.

There must exist a culture of hate toward the poor and the sick. Not lack of funds to build hospitals and clinics.

The Bible says "You shall know them by their fruits!

That is why God is sending his fur to reform it & we also say the Church has to pass through reformation & transformation( ተሃድሶና አይነታዊ ለውጥ).
