Joshuaforever: Most people don't know the scriptures. The bible says that He(Jesus) was made poor so that through his poverty, we might be made rich. When worldly people(sinners) get rich, no one complains but when men of God get rich people are upset. The bible says it is God that gives power to get wealth.

k2039:
What's the essence of being wealthy spiritualy if you can't translate into physical cash and material wealth.

If it's a sin for a pastor who accesses spiritual wealth more than some of his congregation to be rich, then it's safe to assume that God's plan for all christian is to be poor.

Pastor Kun:



The ignorance being displayed on this thread is mind boggling.

k2039:
Like seriously, who is the ignorant one?.

The one who believes it's sinful to be rich or the one who believes otherwise.

I siddon dey look some peoples stupidity.

Pastor Kun:

i am yet to read any post were anybody claimed it's sinful to be rich.

nora544: In my country the pastors preach work hard and pray than god will make that your dreams come tru

In nigeria the pastors preach pray and fast and seed, and and first fruit and harwest fruit......

Can you tell me what is better and what will help the people and what helps the so called man of god that they become richer.

The trues is in a country where the people have work they have no time to run in the churches always because they work hard and in the evening they are tired and they want to sleep.

In a country where the people have no work where the economic is bad the people have time to run to the churches when ever the church is calling and they will allways pray and fast and sow because they hope a miracle comes to make them rich. This so called man of god are not stupid because the know why they make this.

k2039:

Like seriously, I'm tempted to ask for your score in Use of Engish.

Is it until you write it out, isn't it obvious from your post.

Pastor Kun:

You are the one that has problems with english comprehension. The fact that we are against the false man made prosperity gospel that is polluting the true gospel of christ does not mean we are advocating believers should not be rich. Your being rich or not has nothing to do with your christian faith as long as the wealth is not acquired illegally.

k2039:
So what evidence do you have that the wealth amassed by this MOG's is faulty and illegal.

Pastor Kun:

You really do have problems with english comprehension. Where in my statement did I say that their wealth is faulty and illegal That is not to say it isn't though, I just haven't stated so.

mosi2living: I understand that most people will always frown at topics like this, because of individual understanding and perception about it. But I can tell everyone that most of this men have been tested by God and have passed the test. Zechariah 1 : 17, Job 22 : 21 - 27, Job 36 : 11 - 12. This is what is called supernatural wealth, it's not accidental, it's not church money as many will supposed. e.g David Oyedepo stop collecting salary from the church before the 90s, there's no profit that comes from books sale, this is a man that give out scholarship to thousands yearly, this are men who are sold out to the course of God and men. It's easy to sit down and begin to criticise and say all manner but that won't change anything or makes you better. All these men once had nothing, I think it's better to think of the secrets to making it yourself instead of accusing someone.

rusher14:

No profit coming from book sales!

No dipping of hand into or actually owning the coffers!!

It's a miracle!!!

Symphony007: We have list of richest actors,musicians,royals,buisnessmen,etc....but there is something deeply troubling about pastors having a rich list. What will christ who had to bless five loaves of bread and two fishes to feed thousands say?
