In the waning days of 2015, renowned televangelist Kenneth Copeland laid out exactly why he needs a luxury private jet to do his job: you cant talk to God while riding commercial.
Criticized at the time for his use of extravagant planes, Copeland argued travel for his work would be difficult, nay, impossible without them. The Texas-based preacher invoked his mentor, prosperity gospel preacher Oral Roberts, who Copeland said faced unsolicited requests for prayer when he flew on public airliners, agitating his spirit.

Praying for people "agitated his spirit?" Must have been in the wrong profession.

Hard to find much info on this these days, since the Worldwide Church of God re-branded for revenue:

He wasn’t quite as bad in the actual “interview” (ambush) than the headline suggested. He is 82, after all, and eccentric as one would expect from Oral Roberts’ protege.
Might want to rethink your opinion on Copeland.

See the videos on my #25 - you are on to something with your sense of Copeland.
The guy looks possessed to me as well.
The fact that these frauds are around is a sign of the times.
2 Timothy 3:13
But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
There can be a business case for a ministry to own a plane, but these shysters don’t have one.
A comment worthy of the great Lazamataz himself. Kudos.
Copeland is a fraud.
High honors indeed
He cracks me up. :)

I talk to God every time I fly commercial...in coach.
Heretic?? You are being too kind to this lousy excuse of a TV evangelists. He is a cheat and thief, playing along with his wife using African children to grease his bank account. He is far, far worse than a heretic. He will be dealt with at the Great White Throne, making money off our LORD and His word. Nope would not like to be in his, Hinn, Joyce Meyer, Cliff-low-down Dollar (another who milked his poor congregation for his private jet), OSTEEN!!!, Mr. Purpose Driven Life false pastor Rick Warren, TD Jakes, and a boat load of others that I don’t have time or room to list here. They will have their judgment and they will not like it. But, too bad, so sad, you made your bed. FULL repentance before the LORD is your only chance, and then give all the money back.
Don’t feel rained on my friend. We pay school taxes here and my youngest child is 39!!! Hasn’t been in high school in over 20 years, yet I still keep paying and don’t know a single kid over at the local high school, nor teacher, nor principal. I don’t vote for the local school board because I have NEVER heard of anyone of them on the ballot. At least the entire ballot this year was republican and no commies were on it. We don’t try to elect those kinds around my part of Alabama.
That is true, most people do not want the truth because Satan’s religion is more suitable to their taste.
Just as we are free to ridicule it.
Yet amother of the ‘Toon’s myriad crimes ...
Poor Noah. His jet was severely water-damaged in the flood and none of his sons were jet mechanics so from then on he just had to get around in his Rolls.
