There was another name for this other than prosperity theology- wasn't there? Can anyone think of it?
Another name I cannot remember is given to the theology whereby sinning is ok for any believer because Jesus paid the price. Believing was all that was needed and the attitude by these adherents was worrying about sin proved a lack of faith. Something like that. Anyone know what this is called? More of a compound word than the substitute word for prosperity theology.

The one that gave the term Afro American to our society... the one who spilled ketchup all over his T Shirt and said it was the blood of Martin Luther King... a bigger Race Hustler than Al Sharpton... That Jackson Oh. You could get 8 mil-dots on that big ole forehead.

If his theology "works", why does he need to ask anyone for money now? Dave Ramsey could help if it is just financial trouble...

Years back when I was still gainfully employed, I carried a camera with me everywhere I went. Working at an airport you never knew when something newsworthy might occur. One day just outside the weather office there was a small crowd of blacks that wee well dressed soI went out to see what was happening. It ws a crowd meeting the Rev. Jesse Jackson so I snapped off a few candid shot before I was noticed. Got some seriously nasty looks and about that time was wishing for a Ma Duece or some such. Lied like hell saying what an honor blah blah blash. shook his mangy paw and beat a healthy but subdued retreat. It wasn't until I got the pictures back that one could see what an evil man he is. I've always had a talent of capturing people when they weren't looking and getting their real personality on film. Paul B.
Our forefathers did not politely protest the British.They did not vote them out of office, nor did they impeach the king,march on the capitol or ask permission for their rights. ----------------They just shot them. MOLON LABE

You could get 8 mil-dots on that big ole forehead. Problem is, there's not much behind it. He thinks with his little head. Ed

The Word of Faith/Pentecostal movement was high jacked by hustlers who played on American optimism and subsequently blended select Scriptures into a mixture of Truth and carnal desire. It takes some Truth to bait a trap, like what Satan did to Eve in the Garden. These "ministers" are a combination of Dale Carnegie and Christianity, giving us the American Prosperity Gospel. You hear phrases like "name it and claim it", confess it and possess it", etc. With some basis in Scripture and a lot of snake oil thrown in, they've created a huge movement and we're talking mega bucks. So, the tail (money) now wags the dog and here we go. True missionaries to Third World countries are fearful that the "American Gospel" will somehow get introduced and those folks contaminated with the Prosperity mantra. It's all that blinding glitter that keeps folks from seeing the real "Light of the World". A wolf in sheep's clothes, the enemy all decked out to look like the Lord... And it works, just ask the accountants... My $.02 commentary. DF

I've got a whole hanger (okay a drawer) full of Stanley planes. I'll send him one and I'll charge him a whole lot less than $60 million.

Jesus left us with this, relating to guys like this: Mat 7:22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

You'll notice in any arena, those who preach charity the most are those who most expect to be on the receiving end of that charity.

Ridiculous as it is, your feeble attempt to make it a racial thing is without warrant! Every damn one of all these bible thumpers whether black, white, red, yellow or brown is of the same cloth, crooked to no end and without a conscience!

I bet he could find a '55 Stud' he could get for less than $300 at U-Pull-It, but it won't be my $300.

Years ago Reverend Ike was complaining on one of his radio sermons that other preachers drove Cadillacs but he wanted donations because he thought he deserved a Rolls Royce.
