The Fleecing Faithful

Well, it appears that the even the most pivotol election that we have seen in our lifetime couldn't slow down the TBN crowd. While most believers were on their faces praying that G-d's will be done concerning this Nation; the folks at TBN were preparing their bi-annual (or is it monthly; everytime I tune in the Praise-a-Thon is on) Praise-a-Thon.

The United States proved its moral condition by electing Obama as President over this Nation. And as many have devoted themselves to prayer and fasting for the security of this Nation; TBN holds a praise-a-thon? Even while the economy is in the tank; they have the gall to ask people to send in $10,000 or whatever you got? TBN never ceases to amaze me; nor do those who follow them.

Believers in this Nation will begin to see the fruit of the election; and yet many in the Word of Faith have proclaimed this year; "The Year of Opportunity" or "The Year of Prosperity." I have to tell you that according to the Bible our opportunities and prosperity awaits in Heaven through Messiah and not here on this earth.

"If anyone advocates a different doctrine and does not agree with sound words, those of our L-rd Messiah Yeshua, and with the doctrine conforming to godliness, he is conceited and understands nothing; but he has a morbid interest in controversial questions and disputes about words, out of which arise envy, strife, abusive language, evil suspicions, and constant friction between men of depraved mind and deprived of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. But godliness actually is a means of great gain when accompanied by contentment" 1 Timothy 6:4-6
