Jailed Televangelist Jim Bakker is Back in Business Hawking Survivalist Kits
Daily Mail UK ^ | September 15, 2014 | Maggie Harbour

TV evangelist Jim Bakker says don't fret, he's got everything you need to survive any disaster. His survival kits include everything from padded clothing to buckets of beans to enemas.

The disgraced pastor, who served 5 years for fraud/conspiracy, has a daily TV broadcast promoting his Morningside Church – a Christian retreat and retirement community set on 600 acres of land near Branson, MO.

Of course, Bakker doesn't technically own Morningside. He still owes the IRS more than $6 million in taxes he neglected to pay in the 1980s.

Prepping is wise - for America’s coming mess - and / or for the more short term storm, brown out, etc - maybe for an EMP. Good move.

But no, the 60 AD theory - I invite you to research that. Google Chuck Missler.

And their big push right now is on survival products, which Bakker calls 'Love Gifts.'

I’ve done a good bit of research, but I’ll still check it out.

My dad was a Theologian. Read Greek/Hebrew all that. I have a book the Parousia that’s got extensive information. Lucky for me it has tons of dad’s notes scribbled about as well.

I suggest you check it out, seriously. No offense to your dad, but “theologians” are often the last ones to open their minds, and many “theologians” are liberal activists.

I mean, after John 3:16 - everything else is just discussion essentially. But for 60 AD to have been the tribulation, it means God is a liar about Israel, the Millennium, etc.

Oh no offense and my dad would absolutely agree with you. He loved the Lord and said the reason he finally left the ministry was because the church (generally speaking the denomination we were in anyway) had become more of a ‘machine’ instead of what it was supposed to be....a place to minister to people.

Those “high up” cared about membership and tithe numbers more than the flock itself. Heck...he opened a Bible study for Catholics and some of the elders actually complained! He’d bring the homeless in for church and they’d complain about that too. So...there you go :(

oh...and it’s doesn’t mean God is a liar, but I think there will still be an “end” to this world at some point or another.

You’d think he would have learned his lesson.

He did. He learned there are a lot of dumb suckers out there who suspend critical thinking when you mention God.
