But let's say Titus didn't do this. To my knowledge he lives in a home that is owned by The Church in Cleveland on the back of the property where the meeting hall is. If not before certainly after Whistler he would have been tossed to the curb. If the LSM execs could have found a way to influence the eldership there or a majority of those who control the assets of the church to go along with their quarantine scheme Titus Chu would be gone in short order. Imagine at his age being kicked out of his home especially if didn't have other sources of income!

Titus Chu only duplicated the things done in Anaheim. Since he had appointed all the elders in Cleveland, there is no way any of them would have listened to Anaheim first, and both Lee and the Blendeds knew that.
The church may own the home he now lives in, but Titus Chu owns other homes in Cleveland that the church maintains and keeps stocked with saints. Coupled with outside sources of income from motel investments, required offerings to his own ministry, and his own businesses which thrived with church volunteer labor, Titus has no concerns about income, other than no longer being able to support most of his former workers.
