If there's one thing the Swaggart family knows about, it's pimps.

I don't know if it was THIS message that I caught one Sunday or some other (I long ago stopped listening to tv pentecostals and so just stumbled across it)
He was relating that he went to another city and turned the tv on in his hotel room and a choir was on singing "I'd rather have Jesus than Silver and Gold" and he watched in shock as the preacher of the church began yelling and commanded the choir to stop singing that song and never to sing it again! Because he wanted Jesus
AND silver and gold.
Sounds a lot like Benny Hinn who has said he has no use for streets of gold in heaven he has to have it NOW!!!!

My favorite WOF jingle was also about silver and gold. It came from Kim Clement who led his band in a felt like 30 minute rendition of "Don't put it in my teeth, don't put it in my hair, just put it in my hand." At first I thought he was singing about gum . . .

If he'll return to his first love and maybe, just maybe... he'll be able to walk with Jesus on that pavement.

Where's that snowman from Rudolph when you need him?
"Silver and gold, silver and gold,
Everyone wishes for silver and gold . . ."

Well, there's alot about the Jimmy swaggart story that nobody knows. Yes, he got caught. But the person who sent the photographer on the trail of Swaggart was doing the same thing. And his name was Gorman and he also got caught. I think it humbled both men and I actually enjoy watching Swaggart today.
BTW, if you read Jay Baker's book, he says that Swaggart was one of the only ministers besides Franklin Grahm to help his dad get out of prison.
I do like the video. Thanks for sharing it!

That may be the first time have ever seen
Swaggart and
humble in the same sentence.
