"  Under New Zealand law, churches are exempt from paying tax, but Luxon has left the door open for changes.

"We will certainly be looking at things like that this term, yep," he said.

But Luxon said right now it's "not a focus".

Destiny Church leader Brian Tamaki today came out swinging too.

"You've got to wonder where his head space is, because a lot of churches pick up the mess that dysfunctional Governments leave in society," he said.

Tamaki said his church's social programmes are run without Government help and have a positive impact.

"When you think about it he's going to tax that or he's going to tax our income, I think that's what he's talking about. I'm going to send him a big bill at the end of every year charging all the cost that we're doing for free."

But you're not doing it free, are you. Your'e doing it using the funds fleeced from your flock...
