Look at the way he looks. He's rubbing his hands together thinking of all the money he's making.

I'm surprised because I never heard of this guy. Down in South America somewhere.

The Bible speaks about the false prophets, who prophesy lies for the sake of their appetites and for the love of money. You'll find the false prophets will be in the Lake of Fire, with the rest of the unbelievers, in the end.

Always remember that the simple believe every word.
A good man is above pettiness. He is better than that.

This one looks more like a rabbi than a pastor. Where did he make the money? Organ trafficking?

Actually many of them such as Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, etc. have over a billion. They just use tricks to hide it. If you have all the ministry resources at your disposal then what does it matter how many figures appear in your personal bank account? They live in lavish opulence while many of their congregation and followers suffer and struggle financially.

And it is all tax free. Good income for 'selling' you a prosperity gospel. Unless money goes up, no blessings will come down. Unfortunately, the only thing going up is the pastor's private jet or helicopter.

Those sums seem like petty peanuts these days though,
when now it's about billions and trillions being scattered like nothing, quadrillions in derivatives bubbles etc.

Interesting how financial numbers have followed computer numbers, i.e we would hear about a megabyte with awe, now it's about terabytes and beyond
1)Too much of one thing defeats the purpose.
2)Everybody is full of it. What's your hypocrisy?

This is exactly why the coinage act for America which was drawn up in 1792 states anybody counterfeiting or debasing a currency is punishable by death, this gives you a idea of why Benjamin Franklin stated the real reason for the revolutionary war was the colonist operating a honest money system outside the crown...............
