Christians need to understand that God called me to preach the gospel and help lead people to him how he blesses me should not be your concern. What does my heart show you, what does my fruit show, for every car that I have, I have walked to church at least 5 times to preach to people who took thier car for granted and passed me on the way and refused to put anything in the plate because of my raggedy suit or busted house. People get over yourself the $10 you put in the plate doesn't make me

Wow just wow. That was horrible. They are all preaching about how you don't need cars or money, yet their driving Bently's and Mercedes and going to their million dollar homes. This is blasphemous against everything Christian. And I cannot believe people are believing these so called preachers. Its sad.

From as far as I can see these men who say they love Jehovah God do not.... It is written... You can not serve two masters quoted by our loving King Jesus, Seek The Righteousness in Gods Kingdom first and everything else will be added unto you.
