RICHEST PASTORS IN THE WORLD:
1 Bishop Oyedepo - $150 Million
2 Bishop TD Jakes - $147 Million
3 Pastor Chris Oyakhilome - $50 Million
4 Pastor Benny Hinn - $42 Million
5 Pastor Adeboye - $39 Million
6 Pastor Creflo Dollar - $27 Million (He used to be #1)
7 Pastor Kenneth Copeland - $25 Million
8 Evangelist Billy Graham - $25 Million
9 Prophet TB Joshua - $10 Million
10 Pastor Joseph Prince - $5 Million

Observe again that none of the 4 richest churches mentioned have their leaders on this list of the Richest Pastors.

The Pope is not there.
The Arch Bishop of Canterbury is not there.
The Bishop of Opus Dei is not there.
The Director of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is not there.

NOW OBSERVE AGAIN.

6 out of the 10 Richest Pastors are blacks with their congregation being predominantly black

4 out of the 10 richest Pastors have their churches in Nigeria, the poverty capital of the world, the 147th most corrupt nation of the world, the home to the second deadliest terrorist group, the most unsafe place to give birth to in the world

Observe as well that the Richest Churches are situated in

1- USA
2- Vatican City
3- England

These are amongst the safest, less corrupt and most prosperous Nations.

What a Paradox!! Jesus Christ fed the multitude, but in Nigeria the multitude feed the Men of God and General Overseers.

Access to Spirit realm is cloudy.
Hence the tricky nature of human operators.

God is not interested in just the physical wealth of a church, but mainly interested in the spiritual wealth of the church. Before heaven, the truly rich church is the one that forms Christ in men. The Bible says that God dwells in a high and a holy place, but he also dwells with them who are lowly and contrite in heart to revive the heart of the contrite and to restore the spirit of the lowly. What that means is that God, the creator of heaven and earth is also seeking accommodation in the lives (hearts) of men. The truly rich church is the one that build men and women that accommodate Christ in their hearts. That;s why Ephesians say, In your heart, set Christ apart as Lord. The currency of heaven isn't naira, dollar or pound. The currency of heaven is the Man, Jesus. How much he is Lord over a church is how Rich that church is. How much he is Lord over a man is how truly rich that man is.

If the pentecostal pastors in Nigeria, who we all know commands mass followers; can appeal to their adherents to vote Mr. Peter Obi and usher in a new Nigeria, then they have a place in the global hall of Fame.

They can unite this time and tell their members to vote for the one and only competent man we have right now, we shall forgive them of their greediness and shortcomings.

Re: Richest Churches In The World: by TheNobleProphet:
GOD ALMIGHTY FATHER our CREATOR "Has NO business" with religion!

Religion is solely "man-made"!

GOD did NOT ask any of HIS Messengers or Prophets to establish religion because HE Would NEVER do that!

HE sent HIS Messengers and Prophets to bring and spread Divine Messages - (Divine/Spiritual Empowerment) to mankind and NOT to establish religion!

Religion was crafted by men and it has turned out to be a "very cruel scam/poison" because majority who follow religion are in BONDAGE; and this is the major reason religion would finally drag many to destruction instead of Salvation! ---Matthew 7:21-23

Every human being should "objectively" seek/read The Book - In The Light of Truth - The Grail Message ( A Book of Immeasurable Treasures) written by The Bringer of Truth HIMSELF, so as to "earn Eternal Life"!

Please, NO insults!

Thanks!

Op, after calling out RCCG and Pastor Adeboye, I expected you to also list some of the projects that they have executed to touch lives.

Are we going to talk about the ICU and dialysis centers that they have built in some regions of the nation?

Are we going to talk about the feeding of prisoners and the poor that some provinces of the RCCG engage in every Sunday?

Are we going to talk about Pastor Adeboye's wife, who has a foundation for the rehabilitation of drug abusers?

In case you are not too lazy to verify the claims above, just search for "His Love Foundation" and click the hamburger menu on your right hand side.

https://hislovefoundation.com/signature-projects/

You can even search for these projects on Google by simply using "RCCG humanitarian service."
