Billy Graham is a Southern Baptist who rose to celebrity status as his sermons were broadcast on radio and television stations around the country. In 1950 he founded the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Within a few years the civil rights movement began to sweep the nation. Billy, who had never really thought much about the plight of African Americans was instantly inspired to help the cause. He began refusing to speak or appear at events that were segregated. He joined the Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955 where he met and befriended Martin Luther King, Jr. In 1957, Billy invited Dr. King to join him during a 16 week Christian event held at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. This 16 week event attracted more than 2.3 million visitors from around the country and helped propel Dr. King and the Civil Rights movement into the mainstream conscience. Billy personally posted bail for Dr. King on several occasions after the MLK had been arrested during demonstrations. Billy Graham was also the official spiritual advisor to several Presidents including Nixon and Eisenhower. It has been estimated that during his lifetime, Billy’s sermons have reached an audience across television and radio of more than 2.2 billion people. He married his wife Ruth in 1943 and they remained together until her death in 2007.

Not the most religious person but, doesn't the Bible say something about a camel walking through the eye of a needle before a rich man gets into heaven?
 
Looks like all these charlatans do their shopping at the Steve Harvey suits collection.

What's the difference between a pimp & a preacher?

They both enjoy and flaunt the trappings of wealth.......

Flashy homes, cars, multiple business interests, etc.

Both sell dreams of "future" riches to the (mostly poor people) they exploit--extort for money.

Both have perfected the gift of gab. Which is an integral part of their mind-manipulation strategy.

Both professions are the world's oldest hustles. All the way back to the biblical days of Mary Magdalene, and "Jezebels" in the book of proverbs.

The similarities stop when individuals pay, for the expectation of services to be rendered. In other words, a John pays pays a prostitute for sex, he gets sex. She then gives the money to her pimp.

End of business transaction.

People go to church, sing, dance, pray. Then pay tithes & offerings to the preacher with the expectation of (depending on the sermon) money, a better life, and ultimately, a first class trip to heaven......At what point was/were "services rendered."

When. They. Die.

So I ask you, who's the bigger con artist??
 
First of all how tf is Billy Graham still alive?

Nigga was born in fucking 1918

If money is the route of all evil than why is it inviting into the temple of the Lord.

Did Christ whip the money changers in the temple?

If churchgoers would correctly read the new testament, then they will see that Jesus said to give from the heart. Once Jesus established the new law, the old law (of 10% tithing) was no longer required. Unfortunately a lot of pastors don't want their members to know this.

This is my opinion and what I got from my reading of the Bible, but I believe it to be correct.

Not impossible, but scripture states it's dang near unlikely a rich man enters the pearly gates.

Someone above posted Matthew 21 12:13. My pop use to tell us that verse every time they'd sell something at our former church. We even left that particular church because of that.

As a Christian, I'm not very fond of these prosperity preachers. Nothing but hustlers and crooks preying on others chasing a buck. Greed amongst the whole congregation; pastor included.
 
I still believe that Creflo Dollar is a made up name. Nigga name is dead ass Pastor Dollar. No way is that real.

Anyways, I stopped being mad at these dudes a long time ago. Church goers are more at fault than anything for giving them the power to generate that much revenue off God. Yeshua already warned us about ppl like them.

Matthew 21:12-13

Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. "It is written," he said to them, "'My house will be called a house of prayer,' but you are making it 'a den of robbers.'"

It's the LOVE of money that is the root of all evil. Amen.

Money is just a tool. But when that tool becomes your total desire and object of worship it has become your "god". Amen.

I respect @DoUwant2go2Heaven 10x more than these clowns. He may be worth 4 nickels and a candy wrapper but dude is out and about spreading the word. The way the Bible told preacher's and pastor's too.

Can't hate on TD Jakes also most of his income comes from movies, motivation speaking and books. Still DoU is more respected from my view

God is good. I prayed for God to use me and He is doing exceedingly abundantly above all that I could have ever asked or imagined. Hallelujah! There is no limit with God. Hallelujah!

It's good to know Jesus. Amen.

Services rendered? Believers are servants of the most High God, the LORD Jesus Christ. We "don't go to the building" to be served. We gather as a collective body to praise, worship, and serve the LORD as one! You got it all wrong.
 
In fairness not all their money comes from their congregations.

For example Jake's makes movies and writes books
 
Harlem Hustler, I can't at all knock it

But you hard, when you go in the Lord pockets

What you offering, put it right in offerin

They take it all, cash, credit, silver, down to porcelain

Look at the Porsche he's in

Then Give them portioning

No handicap, Annie Rag, orphan friends
