not surprising

Deb,

I have a question for you. If I know you, I do not know at this moment who you are so please be honest. To what end did you publish this on this forum?

Are you crying out for prayer for a fellow brother in Christ who is being persecuted? Are you happy that a charleton is getting his due? Are you trying to give Gerald an anurism?

Does this edify or tear down?

Motives, please.

I read it. No news in it, but it was very interesting.

I did not know Kenneth Copeland was an aspiring pop star who charted a song and appeared on American Bandstand. I've got this mental picture of him in one of those big sweaters and even more Vitalis in his hair crooning in that drawl of his to the screams of teenie boppers in long skirts and ponytails. Does not compute.

Lyrics? Why, yes!

I love you so
I can't let you go
I must make you see
You mean more to me
Than each beat of my heart
'Cause I can't live without your love

All of my life I have dreamed of a love
The way I wanted it to be
And now that I've found you, my heart's so afraid
That somehow you won't care for me

That's all, that's the reason

I love you so
I can't let you go
I must make you see
You mean more to me
Than each beat of my heart
'Cause I can't live without your love

I offer you love, have a dream to fulfill
Pledge me your love in return
Just say that you love me and you always will
This flame will forever burn

That's all, that's the reason

I love you so
I can't let you go
I must make you see
You mean more to me
Than each beat of my heart
'Cause I can't live without your love

Here's a link to him singing some song about the Rio De Rosa something.

And, here, he pleads that he wants his fanny brown. Yeah, that's what I said.

Honestly...
I was thinking of Gerald. But I would not wish an aneurysm on him.

Your too funny Dolphan!

If this post is too offensive for Jude2, may the moderators feel free to sweep it under, I mean, send it to that "special" place that has become so popular.

NEWARK, Texas - Here in the gentle hills of north Texas, televangelist Kenneth Copeland has built a religious empire teaching that God wants his followers to prosper.

Certinally not anything new, where has this reporter been for the past 40+ yeras.

They include the brother-in-law with a lucrative deal to broker Copeland's television time,

sounds like someone getting paid to do a job that needs to be done. Why not keep it in house as much as possible

the son who acquired church-owned land , for his ranching business and saw it more than quadruple in value

,

which church ? his fathers, friend, or a church that was closing the doors. My house more than tripples in value in the last twelve years. Kinda like Pastor Paul lives in a half million dollar home and he takes from little old ladies who send him $5 a month. BTW my home cost just over $100,000 when I bought it.

and board members who together have been paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for speaking at church events.

So if you are on a ministry board are you to do it free ? what is wrong with a person getting a offering for speaking. And how long of a period are they referring to? I'm sure that many of the evangelist on this forum speak for free all the time. BTW it said who togetherso if you have 10 on the board ???

What you don't hear is that this ministry gives out millions of dollars each year to orphanages, drug rehabilitation centers throughout the country, Millions to overseas missions.

Not promoting any man's ministry. If you disagree with his doctrine...that fine, but to constantly look for areas to accuse another minister. Good greif. I thought the scripture said Satan was the accuser of the brethern ?

[panhandler]

Well said Paul!

[rough_rider]

Well said Paul!

Yes indeed, well said Paul.

Paul,
In your post you are making it look like the quote came from me -
it was not my quote, I was quoting the article, and I am not the author.
If you will notice, I edited my post by removing the quote, because I saw the line on the website link that I replaced it with.


This is your quote:

Not promoting any man's ministry. If you disagree with his doctrine...that fine, but to constantly look for areas to accuse another minister. Good greif. I thought the scripture said Satan was the accuser of the brethern ?

If this is directed to me - again, the quote was not mine, and I made no comments of my own regarding the story. I was just posting a link to an item in the news like others on this forum do. I don't keep up with the televangelists and don't watch any of them.
You are correct - Satan is the accuser of the brethern (Rev. 12:10).

Deb, It seems the super-self righteous have taken a little break from self back patting to try to heap guilt on someone else (THEY dont mind ACCUSING YOU! one bit, no sir)

Don't let them bug you.

Copelands teaching is so demented if it can't be accused, nothing can.
