2 Peter 2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
I know, but no matter what, a large minority of the American people will be fooled again and again.
They must fly American Airlines.
Didn’t Paul walk everywhere? He did take a boat on occasion...
Not sure who is more evil. Televangelists or blog pimps. The jury is out.
They left out frizbee head and creflo $
I, for one, eschew the TSA theater and choose to drive. I experienced the Private Air Travel even b4 the TSA and found it to be awesome.
Commercial Air in the daze of the Oren J. Simpson TV Ads was swell.
Today, the Islamic US Air Travel sucks, Big Time.
Just sayin'.
Jesus didn’t fly.
You should see Leroy Thompson in Darrow, La. The town is so small you’d miss it if you blinked. He has a mansion and about 10 cars. He’s big buddies, here in Louisiana with Duplantis. That is all those guys talk about is money.
When you fly A LOT for business having a private jet takes on a different purpose. Flying commercial is very inefficient and eats up a lot of work time. For some people that time is worth more than the cost of the jet.
Not sure if thats true with Televangelist.
“Make merchandise of you.”
This kind of sounds like trying to buy or sell someone’s soul.
I’ve encountered ministries that have gotten too big for their britches, appearing to have gone from love powered to pride powered. Only the Lord can judge how bad this is in the end; only He can read their intentions and know what they understood. And it isn’t even an unrecoverable situation. But it is a stumbling block.
It’ll often show in the tone of the ministry. Do they seem to personally care or are they bragging about what they do?
Lewis Grizzard had these guys pegged.

Frankly if I found I did televangelism well I’d keep it on the TV... and/or services like YouTube... that’s actually very cost efficient today. VERY cost efficient. Going around flying everywhere sounds like gilding the platinum plated lily or something.
Who is the guy that wants a G7? Got publicly shamed a while back and is still going to get one any way? forget the name. It was odd.
Pressurized thermos bottles with a couple of Hoovers hung on.
You don’t need intrusive government to fly aboard your own plane.
God has a weird sense of humor or something... this stuff is nothing to Him if He wants it. “The cattle of a thousand hills.” The value is in what it means. The real problem comes when it’s clearly a pride item and it’s not helping inspire anybody. God boosted Solomon’s empire to what would be trillions of dollars today, just to show that He could. And other than some pagan womanizing he didn’t handle it that terribly badly. But subsequent generations were hypnotized by the wealth.
they need a private plane like a submarine needs a screen door.
His name is Creflo Dollar (no joke, that is his name).
The Wikipedia citation is (I think) pretty accurate:

Mad Mo’ dint even have an AK-47....
