Who says they are trying? I think that is pure slander. When so many of them out most of their millions of dollars of royalty earnings back into their church, how can you make such an obviously irrational comment?

I'm not even religious and *I* have a problem on principle with anyone using the word of any deity to deceive innocents who just want to have hope in a cruel world. That is not what religion is supposed to be for. I don't care if it's Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, whatever - religion should never be used to defraud or harm, it's supposed to uplift people and inspire them to do better. How is this sort of abuse even remotely uplifting to anyone?

+ @@ThePhantomSafetyPin The best I can say about your post is that you are utterly illiterate and uninformed of the issue you jump into the middle of with not the slightest concept of the issue. Had you read any of the post stating the FACTS - NOT as the hitpiece did - but FACTS - while these guys have massive incomes from their books - they usually put that money back into their churches. NO ONE is defrauded or harmed. And there are incredible resources - food, rent sometimes - counseling, job training etc - all free and without obligation. If someone gets a 60 million royalty check - frankly I care NOT a whit if they buy a Ferrari with what they keep. Nor is your concept of abuse either factual or rational - religion, at least the Biblical christian religion, different from the others you listed - is the last bastion of free will - you watch TV? you are contributing to someones pocket. With these preachers and speakers - GIVING is 100% voluntary - NO entrance fees - no tickets to buy - nothing. Free to come - Free to go. You are simply misinformed.

@@paulrobinson9318 based on the fact you're tax exempted? Was that too hard for you?

@@systematic101 Can you prove every move open if one is tax exempt? WHY would one care if they were tax exempt or not?

One does NOT give up PRIVACY when one becomes tax-exempt. Many people make statements they cannot prove. Your claims ate NOT fact-based nor even rational.

+@rj doggman YOU cite fantasy as if it was fact - and you generalize to the extreme - gossip as if it was evidence - ONE preacher? maybe - WHO - you didn't say - BUT all? NEVER.

IF blessing comes - its because GOD can trust them - Stop spreading lies and generations that apply to no one or a very few, but you apply to many.

Right cuz Jesus don't want yo money he wants to enslave you

Not exactly.... While I agree Pastor should not live above the means of the members of their Church no doubt about it and what he's doing maybe one hundred percent wrong but Jesus turn the temple tables over because people were cheating folks if you study biblical history you understand that they were over-charging and cheating individuals because of the exchange rate as well as what they were charging for sacrificial animals they were cheating people that's what was going on he didn't stop the folks from selling the sacrificial animals or the money exchange he was mad because they were ripping people off and charging a ridiculous amount call it what you will that's why I'm Jesus did that in the temples because they were cheats now he may fall into this category but that was not exactly what Jesus did sorry brother

I think the members themselves should be making the decision on the pastor salary and it should be done over prayer and supplication

The Voice of Reason , the congregation has no voice in the matter. Mega Churches are businesses and the mega church preachers own the business.

"Give to Ceasar what is Ceasar's & to God God's." --Jesus of Nazareth. As a follower of Jesus Christ & a minister ordained from above, I agree the churches should pay taxes!

I understand your outrage, but there are many churches that do things the right way that should not be punished because of the bad apples. I do not believe that the cases described in this program are few and far between.

I don’t agree with this. I go to a small church and we don’t use our tax exempt status for garbage like this. It’s used to purchase the things we need to have functions that encourages members of the community to come eat, enjoy family friendly fun and hear the word. It’s used to help purchase the things needed to do repairs or purchase equipment thats old and worn out.

No shit sherlock, obviously it's not only the catholic church doing this, but i rather power and money corrupt them. I've never been rich but I belive if you get once a lot of money the temptation to use it for yourself is going to be very high.

Vatican has been doing it for years, yes. But the pope lives in a house nowhere near the size of mega church pastors homes. Plus, Vatican is protecting land, and very old scriptures. I have never seen a roman catholic priest live in a mansion.

Incorrect. the Vatican has condemned these people, get an education and do research. The Vatican does not ask followers for money, no one in the church has any money, it is all in buildings and charities, business, governments etc. The church is a global political and society entity that has existed for 2000 years, it is bound to have money. God is with the Vatican. not with this scammers

"Give to Ceasar what is Ceasar's & to God what is God's." --Jesus of Nazareth If what Jesus said is true, why are churches not paying taxes? The government is to blame for not collecting what belongs to them!

@@paulrobinson9318 I do "incredible" work with the homeless almost everyday with my own money, does that mean I dont have to pay my taxes? No. Also, if Jesus said to give to Ceasar what is Ceasar's & to God, God's, are churches obeying that commandment by not paying taxes? No. Did not Jesus say, "if you love me, follow my commandments"? Who are the churches or you not to obey the commandments of God? Moreover, because the churches are not paying taxes, they run the risk of the government dictating to them what to do, whether or not it contradicts God's word. Are you even a truely converted follower of Jesus Christ? Friend, you consider yourself literate? If you are so literate, how come the very simple things I have said above have never crossed your mind?

J McIntosh I've learned if a church is set up as a 501 3(c) and are considered government ran operations. They control what the church teaches verses what they are not allowed to teach.

We must wake up because the devil is at work through these false prophets period.

Ehrman: "In Did Jesus Exist? historian and Bible expert Bart Ehrman confronts the question, "Did Jesus exist at all?" Ehrman vigorously defends the historical Jesus, identifies the most historically reliable sources for best understanding Jesus’ mission and message, and offers a compelling portrait of the person at the heart of the Christian tradition." |www.amazon.com/Did-Jesus-Exist-Historical-Argument/dp/0062206443 "The most detailed record of the life and death of Jesus comes from the four Gospels and other New Testament writings. “These are all Christian and are obviously and understandably biased in what they report, and have to be evaluated very critically indeed to establish any historically reliable information,” Ehrman says. “But their central claims about Jesus as a historical figure-a Jew, with followers, executed on orders of the Roman governor of Judea, Pontius Pilate, during the reign of the Emperor Tiberius-are borne out by later sources with a completely different set of biases.” " - Ehrman. YOU very successfully displayed your ignorance - NOT even a question about it.

God is smarter than I. It seems to me from your comments that you may have been religious - that is a far cry from being a Christian. Most atheists I know were raised Catholic - and many other churches that are more social clubs that places to meet God - it is the biggest nursery for atheists ever - because the people there learning about GOD have enough religion to bug them but NOT enough to Bless them.

They crack down on homeless people because if they find God and remain not working for money and repent and keep All the commandments, and spread the teachings of Jesus, they will enter heaven!!

Religion is bullshit. Jesus is mostly a fictional character posthumously glorified by fake backdated prophecies & fake miracle stories like virgin birth, resurrection & walking on water copied from: Attis 1200 BC, Krishna 900 BC, Zoroaster 600 BC & Dionysos 500 BC.

This is shameful. These Preachers, definately dont have the fear of The ALMIGHTY LIVING GOD! I HOPE THEY REPENT BEFORE ITS TOO LATE. My pastor gives out Bookbags too, but he hasnt written a book, and there is a Bible in every bookbag. Again should be ashamed of themself Question, how many funerals has he preached? And does he properly represent if the person went to heaven or hell. Sinners go to Hell, saints go to heaven. That is what all his members should be worried about. Just going to church doesnt mean your going to heaven. You better wake up.

1 Timothy 6:9,10 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.

No he didn't say that. He said things like it's harder for a rich man to get into heaven then a camel through the eye of the needle. Not word to word btw. But he never said money is the root of all that is evil. I swear people just hear something and swear by it blindly rather than do a little reading. Sheep.

Jesus did not right Timothy. Paul did. It was a letter to Timothy about how to be a proper Christian. In fact....mind blown for some idiots...Jesus didnt write the bible at all. So all we have to go on about living is from a few peoples who may or may not ever even met Jesus.

There were a lot of people that wrote the Bible but GOD is the author of the Bible. Love God not money, as the love of money could become your god.

Paula Spart like ahahahah hehehehe haha hah so right text just gone

When I use to go to Church I loved going to small Churches to find friendships and feel like im apart of the family.

Adrian Getano AMEN TO THAT.!!!!!

Nah, he'll live in luxury and riches for the rest of his life while poor people suffer. There is no justice when it comes to these things. The laws are already in their favor and no politician is going to risk the wrath of the religious to shut them down.

@@mimim7026 They won't live forever. Jesus won't remain in Heaven forever. Then they must stand before God and answer to Him. In the end; there is Justice with God.

Wonder why these millionaire preachers don't give to their members. Imagine many don't own homes and I know many could use decent cars or even food. Are these preachers going out of their way to take care of their sheep? Aren't Shepard's supposed to take care of their sheep? Feed, protect and provide for all their needs first. Haven't seen that ever happen have you? That'd be a first. I know. I believe Jesus told his disciples to go around with just the shoes on their feet and not to ask for anything. God would make sure they got what they needed day by day. These false Teachers will be judged. And I didn't think they'll be given what they got here. No need to live like the Rich and Famous. No excuse! ( Like to hear the one they give when they stand in front of God)

@@carolormsby4508 It does happen, but it's minimum in the western countries. However, it's mostly done in third world countries.

Creflo Dollar built his church in a depressed area of Atlanta and Creflo buys a $65 million dollar bizjet and the poor bought it for him.

Interesting.

Carol Ormsby I agree, I know several members in my church who faced eviction and asked for help from the church and all they said was ‘we will pray for you’. That lady got evicted and yet they told her to simply trust God he will work it out while they’re still demand she tithe weekly 🙄
