Which body has supervision of the state missions money, surplus tithes, state parsonage, campground, and all other funds received and disbursed by the state treasury?

• A. State Youth and Discipleship Board
• B. State World Missions Board
• C. State Council
• D. State Board of Ministerial Development

Answer: (C)

The key idea is who holds fiduciary oversight for state finances and properties. In Church of God polity, the State Council is the governing financial body responsible for supervising all funds that come into the state treasury—everything from state missions money and surplus tithes to the state parsonage, campground, and other funds disbursed by the treasury. This means the council approves budgets, oversees receipts and expenditures, and serves as trustee for state property, ensuring everything aligns with the policies of the State Conference and General Organization.

Other boards manage finances tied to their specific ministries: the World Missions Board handles missions funds, the Youth and Discipleship Board oversees youth-related finances, and the Board of Ministerial Development handles funds for ministerial training. Because the broad, overarching supervision of the state's general funds and properties falls to the State Council, it is the correct choice.
