Prosperity Gospel Millionaire Kenneth Copeland Screams at his Followers Unemployed due to Coronavirus Cutbacks 'Don't You Dare Stop Tithing!'
nteb ^ | 3/20/2020 | Geoffrey Grider

In a typical display of unbridled greed, sleazy televangelist Kenneth Copeland warns followers that even if they lose their job because of the coronavirus pandemic they must keep giving him money because Jesus.

Today we bring you Old Demon Eyes himself, Kenneth Copeland, and be forewarned, he is really, really mad at unemployed, coronavirus quarantined Christians. Just when I think that Laodicean crooks like Kenneth Copeland, Paula White and all the others cannot possibly get any lower or more disgusting, they do. But Kenneth Copeland, as you will see in this video, is in a class all by himself when it comes to sleaze.

FEAR OF THIS CORONAVIRUS IS FAITH IN ITS ABILITY TO HURT YOU OR KILL YOU. THE FEAR OF ‘WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO? I’M GETTING LAID OFF AT WORK!’

HEY! YOUR JOB’S NOT YOUR SOURCE. IF IT IS, YOU’RE IN TROUBLE. JESUS IS YOUR SOURCE! WHATEVER YOU DO RIGHT NOW, DON’T YOU STOP TITHING! DON’T YOU STOP SOWING OFFERINGS.

‘WELL, THEY WON’T LET US GO TO CHURCH!’

WELL, EMAIL IT IN, THEN! TEXT TOGETHER. SOMETHING. BUT YOU GET YOUR TITHE IN THAT CHURCH IF YOU HAVE TO GO TAKE IT DOWN THERE AND DROP IT OFF… STICK IT UNDER THE DOOR OR SOMETHING. YOU GET THAT TITHE IN THAT CHURCH, YOU GET THAT OFFERING IN THAT CHURCH, AND THEN YOU GO HOME AND DO WHAT YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO DO.

I have some (former) friends who think Copeland is the end all and be all of Christianity, that he is God’s final word on what a Christian should be. They were word of faith adherents and proud of it.

As I became aware of just how evil the prosperity gospel and word of faith preaching is, I finally cut ties with them.

That is one event in the life of Christ that I WISH I could have been eyewitness to.

His lips looked blue to me.

I was wondering what is wrong with him.

I find it interesting that for all that churches preach that we are not under the law but under grace, when it comes to tithing, look out.

They are as legalistic as it comes and quote the OT passages left and right to justify their teaching that Christians should tithe.

And yet they have no problem with wearing cotton/polyester blends. :-)

((((I prefer 100% Cotton myself, but not because of the Law. It just feels nicer)))

ESPECIALLY when God says that riches are a sign of one’s obedience/relationship to Him.

That's why the apostles died poor and often in terrible conditions.

But, whatever.

One sentence for Preachers, Catholic Priests, Ministers and Pastors. This is directly from The Source “Judgment begins at the pulpit”. “Woe unto you who would harm one such as this, for you are like ravening wolves searching to devour” That is all you have to know.

If a church operates under a 501c3 it is a handmaiden of the government. The odds are they are more worried about financial dividends than salvation of the “sheep” under their care.

Tithe, is 10% of your increase. Your increase is your profit. So 10% would be after your bills to keep yourself warm, fed and able to go to work. If they ask for anything more they are greedy.

This was a comedy line by a stand up comedian. He was great that night, but I can’t remember who it was. Only it was G-D pissed off..... Robin Williams?

Matthew 5:17-20 King James Version (KJV)

17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Yes we have a new covenant with God in Christ but that does not abolish the laws of the Old Testament.

But your reference to the Pharisees is correct.

The Righteous use of the tithes to the Temple was the care of the Temple and the care of the poor and sick, not that the scribes and Pharisees could live opulent life styles.

The “unbridled greed, sleazy televangelist Kenneth Copeland” is a reflection of the biblical Pharisees.

I’m a small-plane pilot, and when I lived in Texas would frequently fly by Copeland’s airport, west of Ft. Worth. His own airport? Multiple planes? Guy’s my hero!

But seriously, the lowest of the low, exploiting the most gullible and vulnerable.

I think that is debatable.
