Controversial pastor who owns two Rolls-Royces pleads for 200,000 church supporters to donate '$300 or more' EACH so that he can buy a $65M private jet 'to better spread the gospel of Jesus Christ'

Reverend Creflo Dollar is the head of World Changers Church International The 53-year-old preaches 'that God wants to bless the faithful with earthly riches' and the church has about 30,000 members He has an estimated net worth of $27 million Has appealed online for 200,000 people to donate $300 so he can buy Gulfstream G650, worth $65 million and favored by billionaires Says the plane is essential for him to 'reach a lost and dying world for the Lord Jesus Christ'

The founder and leader of a controversial Atlanta-based megachurch has appealed online for 200,000 people to each donate '$300 or more' so that he can buy a $65 million private jet favored by high-flying billionaires.

Reverend Creflo Dollar, 53, is the head of the World Changers Church International, a Christian ministry centered around the prosperity gospel, which preaches that God wants to bless the faithful with earthly riches.

The televangelist, who is one of the most prominent African-American preachers in the United States, this week put a five-minute video up on his website pledging for donations for a Gulfstream G650 - which claims to be the fastest plane ever built in civilian aviation - so that 'World Changers Church International can continue to blanket the globe with the Gospel of grace'.

Dollar - who is known to own two Rolls Royce's and multi-million dollar homes in Atlanta and New Jersey - last hit headlines in 2012, after being arrested for allegedly attacking his 15-year-old daughter.

Sometimes a fellow with great gifts (and he has that) also has a great appetite. That is the case here.

Ike used to say the best thing you can do for poor people is not be one of them.

◄ Matthew 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 in your name perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!' God....The Early Years
