Yes Sis Dine, these new fangled ministers of God are something else. Folks line up hours before service to get a seat in the mega churches and give 10% of their earnings. I discussed Rev Dollar with one of those believers and she defended his large salary saying that his board approved it. In the next life, I will be a minister of wealth.
Quote:
Mr.(Creflow?) Dollar, whose Rolls-Royces, private jets, million-dollar Atlanta home and $2.5 million Manhattan apartment, furnish proof to his followers of the validity of his teachings, is a leading apostle of what is known as the ''prosperity gospel.''
It is a theology that is excoriated in many Christian circles but is becoming increasingly visible in this country, according to religious scholars. Now, it is beginning to establish a foothold in New York City, where capitalism has long been religion.
Mr. Dollar -- his real name -- is the most prominent among a host of prosperity preachers that have put down roots in the city. He is quick to insist that he warns Christians to ''love God, not money'' and teaches ''total life prosperity,'' meaning prosperity not only in finances but in everything from health to family life.
