Show me ANY church or pastor and I KNOW I can find something wrong with it/him/her.

It’s funny how Christianity gets stereotyped as thinking of itself as having reached ‘perfection’. QUITE the contrary - Christians are Christians BECAUSE they figure out that they’re hopelessly flawed human beings and need a greater power than what’s within them. This goes for pastors and evangelists too.

I am no dedicated fan of any of these evangelists named here, but folks LOVE to twist anything they can that’s been said by these folks and try to turn them into wicked, eeeevil, charlatans.

To these folks: I’d like to see YOU go out and spread the word of God. See how perfectly YOU could do it.

The thing is, charatans like Roberts are not seeking to put off sin and live holy lives, they actively embrace covetousness and heresy, and line their own pockets with huge amounts of money by deceiving Christians.

There is a million miles worth of difference between these transparent charlatans, and a good, sincere, godly, pastor or evangelist, who does his best to serve God, but occasionally gets something wrong.
