(p2) As for the prosperity gospel that John Piper is talking about, that’s another matter entirely, the money made through that involves fleecing the flock rather than having your own legitimate job or business, I do think that’s very bad, and then individuals whose knowledge of the Gospel is based around getting rich quick, they have a false Gospel and will only lose money while their pastors make more and more and to make matters worse they probably aren’t even saved so their purpose in their church is to fill seats and provide money. Everything is money orientated and they tend to have their credit cards topped out, and as the bible says, the lender is slave to the borrower. Imo [FONT="]God[/FONT] only wants contributions from those who are genuinely happy to give them, not people who only give for their own ends believing they will receive 100 times the value in return.
