Creflo Dollar

Creflo Dollar, the Televangelist, talks about his controversial religious doctrine of wealth on The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos.

[@heartandsoul22]

I faithfully watch Creflo Dollar Ministeries. This man's ministry has blessed me and I thank God for this man. He and his wife has blessed me with inspiring, hope -filled and most importantly the love of God!

[@fordxg]

I'm all for Dr Creflo Dollar . I saw him in Australia about 12 years ago , he,s a good motivater . have a nice day .

[@Odartse]

He speaks well. I'm impressed by the way he answers questions that would normally cause such preachers to blush.

The Devil has no shame! do not be amazed at this mans stealth and cunning/

He speakes so eloquetly, and that's why I drove 9 hors to see him live in Newyork. MAy God bless him and keep him

[@christineemelone990]

Lydia Koduah that’s the whole point. He’s slick worded and he’s crafty

[@nenemay88]

I am so amazed at how decieved people are, and how "Christians" are enjoying cursing this man. The Bible says "Blessings and Cursing should not come from the same mouth, why? because we are all made in his image, and it is like Cursing God. I attend his Church..Everything u think is not true, I know because I thought like you!, My life has been blessed through his ministry...Don't be decieved, everyone!

[@rockyblac]

I do understand why the bible says that its hard for a rich man to get into heaven. But my point is that not all rich people are evil and there is nothing immoral or unGodly about having lots of money.

[@walterwalls6507]

@swalker0731 what context was taken out? He literally just typed into a quote from scripture

[@BigLove101]

@@walterwalls6507 I hope all is well with you. Mr. Tito only quoted that specific line 24 of Matthew chapter 19. It's "out of context" because it's not stating the complete thought of Christ. You would have to quote Matthew 19:16-24 to truly understand why this statement from Jesus was said. I hope that helps. Pastor Dollar was a poor man who became a Minster of the Word of God who deserves the riches that he has, and Pastor Dollar does not put his trust in money. Proverbs 11:28

[@walterwalls6507]

@@BigLove101 that’s not how context works. Context works on contingency. You people just react on emotion and bring something up that was never there. For all you know the op could be using the verse to support it, but you didn’t just assumed opposition. That’s your issue you need to handle. Now you keep going on about it would further prove your issue

Proverbs 10:19 says, "When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise." Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen" (Ephesians 4:29). Since words carry power, make a decision to use your words as building blocks not battering rams.

One thing you're forgetting is that non-profit organizations are not taxed like corporations. All Grassley wants to find out is if he's abiding by tax laws. Open your damn eyes. This guy is living like a movie star. You just need to put the two pieces together.

[@nemygeverola4859]

Sweet talking man. When he speaks about the word of God, the listeners are connected not to God but to him. Those who listen to him will follow him to put him to a pedestal of popularity and even elevate him to a, status of a god. He teaches the little gods doctrine. So he is now a little God, first and foremost.

[@SingwellaDeb]

Creflo................i love ya...youve blessed me beyond measure with truth...dont matter what people think what matters is what does God think and thats found in the word of God................Got Bible?

That was a good interview. Good job The Hour! May you prosper!! God bless.

I know my pastor on a personal level and hes very wealthy. I know he isnt stealing.

i'm glad somebody spoke the truth unlike these other folks that don't know what they're talking about

[@BriaBarrows]

Lol he’s more of a motivational speaker than a pastor. Fraud.

[@cdarellanof]

1665. Prophecy given to Raymond Aguilera on 6 December 2001 at 9:10 AM. While laying in bed and staring at the ceiling, Creflo Dollar came to my mind and I asked the Lord, "Why do all these people follow Creflo Dollar? His teachings are way off." Then the Lord said, "During the last days people are going to want their ears tickled!" Then the Lord gave me the following scripture: 2 Tim 4:3

[@D_Mekole]

Go Creflo! Continue to let God use you, these devils will continue to keep trying to destroy the great men and women of God but they have all failed and will!

[@silkaem]

@ransom4many09 I would suggest you tune into some of our live streams. I also thought this about Dr. Dollar, but then God told me to go there. I thought God was crazy. But listen to what he is saying. God bless you.

[@DeDondeEsErres]

You people who hate crelfo have issues that only you care about. I believe the bible this way and it always helps me. I had a shunt revision in 8th grade 4 years ago last February and believing the bible this way actually helped me survive. I had 5 of these in my short life and the first for where before I knew God and that was all shire luck in the beginning. After this last one I still to this day believe this man! Even Joyce Meyer, and Kenneth Copland, and Kenneth Hegan. etc.

[@brentduanefoster]

Thirdly, I also agree with you about your statement about religion. Religion is EXTREMELY prejudice, and people that are religious put homosexuality on this gigantic pedestal, and don't even consider everything else that's going on. About what I gave you in Genesis 3 (I think I gave you chapter 1 by mistake, Adam and Eve eating that fruit, wasn't as important to God, as their Disobedience to him. The tree in which they ate from, God specifically instructed them not to.

[@90mv]

whats wrong with a man of god being rich?

[@jamelledwards116]

There's nothing wrong with it

[@BENETTA07]

It's amazing how some people think when a christian becomes wealthy,but alright when the sinner is.Don't you our father is the creator of the whole universe?

[@rockyblac]

it all depends on the heart of the person. And you can't judge a man's heart by how much money he has. But you can judge it by what he does with that money. Does anybody know how Creflo Dollar really spends his money? Have you seen his financial records? His receipts? Or do people judge him and other preachers based on popular opinions and rumors which have no root in reality?

[@rehobothwell]

Every stream in Christendom has its extremes, whether it's prosperity, or the second coming of the Lord. The most important things we as Christians can do is know God for our selves, love others and share the Good news. Oh, and let us as Christians honor one another.

[@johndeweb]

Assay: 2: examination & determination as to characteristics (as weight, measure, or quality) 3: analysis (as of an ore or drug) to determine the presence, absence, or quantity of one or more components ; also : a test used in this analysis. Let us consider this method of assaying above the worldly method of judging one another. Creflo is one voice in the Body of Christ. We all have a voice. "Prosperity is wholeness in every area." -Creflo. I can live with that, for my loved ones sake.

[@jnieves77]

It also say this in the Bible. Matthew 19:24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

[@CRoadwarrior]

Creflo has studied his answers but he still has not realized that 3 John 2 was John's personal desire, not a mandate for his "prosperity" doctrine. Paul made a similar desire statement in Romans 9:3,4, where he said "For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren..." Yet we don't see Mr. Dollar arguing we all should wish ourselves accursed from Christ. An expressed wish from a human in Scripture is not a command from God.

[@jntcollege]

Let me tell you something Creflo will be held accountable for his actions and the people he lead, i believe that creflo is a man of God...if you really read the bible saint we find that the word says that if a person come to preach another gospel than this the one written in the bible to rebuke him, Creflo is preaching everything thats in the bible according to how far God has taught him

[@AveIvy]

The truth is going to come out shortly and we'll all see if you'll still be singing this tune.

[@silkaem]

Wonderful interview. I would suggest that anyone with doubt, take a look at the work World Changers is doing in Brazil. Google Taffi Dollar's Prestige Ministry and Dr. Dollar's Joseph Project. And take some time to pray. Really get to know God and speak only good of people. This man is blessed and he bears fruit of it.

[@lukebagi]

I watch watch a lot of Crelo and what comes out of his heart is mostly the love of God, he rarely talks about money, unless he is doing a special series on it. maybe you are a worker of iniquity?? lol do you come one here to wreck peoples faith??? cause its God's job to tell us that what we are watching is not from him! 'you will know if it is from Me'?? i know when God is speaking through Creflo and so do millions of others. plese dont my faith any longer with your argument,let God lead me.

[@rockyblac]

You still didn't answer any of my questions. 1. If you worked hard and saved up a million dollars over several years, would you give it all away to the poor? 2. Is it not possible that God blessed Creflo and other preachers with all the money they have? 3. Where in the Bible does it say rich people are going to hell? That's all I want to know.

[@ThePanafrica]

@NolanRogers2 ...interesting point, however Dr Dollar did mention that he does not receive a salary from the Chruch...he makes money from outside sources

[@some1luv]

brother you where provided some encouragement to help free your negative perspective in life...Living for self is great when you have a plan.

[@xy11xy]

What was the "due penalty" and what would be considered a "natural" relation in the 13th century? It would make sense to outline in great detail what your god considered natural...position, duration, etc. If you want someone to follow a law you write it in great detail.

What you said is key to this damnable heresy...a man centered, man loving, feel good, how I can use jesus as my servant and genie.

[@jrbungit]

I love Creflo, though I think the whole prosperity gospel is often flawed in its teachings and application. That said, there are legitimate disagreements that various Christians groups have on a littany of issues that should not cause us to divide. Do I agree with 100% of what Catholics, Lutherans, Methodists or Baptists teach? No. Are they still my brothers in Christ? Yes, as is Creflo. I will continue to pray for (not lambast) Creflo that God will guide him. Somehow, we forget that's our job.

[@BKRtunes]

I know that every word coming out of his mouth is the truth. Not because he said it, but because I actually read the Bible for myself. What's controversial about the truth? Let's see you produce one scripture that say's to be a Christian you have to be poor. I read many many scriptures that say he wants me to prosper. Please don't ever delete this video. I know it wasn't your intention but this really shows Brother Dollar in a good light. For those with an ear to hear,the truth sounds real good.

[@manhoot]

The LOVE of money is the root of evil. I pray Creflo repents and receives the gift of the holy ghost.

[@ThePersecuted1]

Encrust. What does that mean in the context in which I saw it?

[@crod6431]

He's not concerned with the Real Gospel Teachers that are calling out his heretical teachings because he doesn't want to get into a debate with any of them. When he stands inf front of Jesus, he will tell Him too that the IRS is more important than preaching the True Gospel.

[@chazzy288]

@ThroneNationStation I see your comment here sir or mam, but could you please tell me on what you base your comment upon? According to SCRIPTURE, how is it that you say that he is a true man of God?

[@aviavi198522]

y all the hateful comments? let God be the only JUDGE of wat he is doing. i personally believe he is preaching God's word. i listen to him and his teachings go much much further than just monetary wealth. the media has a great way on focusing on things and twisting it for their own gratification. if he is not legit he will answer to the One who judges him. jeeez.

They've taken "The Gospel of Wealth" by Andrew Carnegie (proactiveness in your own life with the resources given to you, capitalism; taking lemons and making lemonade) and intertwined it with laws from the 613 Mosaic Laws of the O.T. in today's life while at the same time diluting Paul's "Good News" message of the N.T.; by picking/choosing certain scriptures that re-enforces/validates their "labouring" philosophy. ...

[@rockyblac]

Your religion cannot nullify your prejudice; actually, it supports and emboldens it.

[@Buk4God]

I dont get why people hate on pastors and people who serve the Lord such as Creflo. All of a sudden there is this big conspiracy when a believer is wealthy. Well if you read the Bible as a handbook also you will see how God's word works. Stop hating and worry about your own walk with God. If a pastor doesn't suit you, then move on. Not every single pastor is going to be suitable for every person. MAN!!

Tithes also supported the widow, the orphan, and the stranger. Paul stated in Acts 20:33-35 "I have coveted NO MAN'S silver, or gold, or apparel. Yea, ye yourselves know, that THESE HANDS have ministered unto MY necessities, AND TO them that were with me. I have SHEWED you all things, how that so labouring YE OUGHT TO SUPPORT the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive."

1 Timothy 6:9-11 "But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness." This man is a lover of money. Unless he repents and gives it all back to those he has taken it from, he's going to burn in hell!

[@ting280]

in the old testament, yes, but in the new testament it was literal when Jesus taught forgiveness for your enemies and turn the other cheek... then God did it by example since sin is His enemy He poured sin on Jesus while he was on the cross and then destroyed him, but then forgave him on the third day so he could rise up and be able to be in heaven... that's the example we should be taking cuz Jesus said he was the new covenant, second Adam, basically the rules changed with Jesus

[@gextvedde]

You've got to admire the sheer nerve of conmen like Dollar. I'd love to see him discuss the Bible with a real sholar and watch his ideas get shot to shit.

[@1981footboy]

[@manhoot]

I don't hate Creflo. Where do you see any statement to that effect? That is your supposition only. I love brother Creflo enough to call him to the cross, to preach the gospel according to Jesus, and to lay off the prosperity (money) gospel.

[@brentduanefoster]

Indeed xy, I agree with you!! But you apparently did not understand my original statement in which I said that "in the sight of God, all acts of sin (including homosexuality) are on the same level." Me, myself. I think that homosexuality should on of the least things our society should be worried about. But that's just me!!

[@imartin83]

regardless of your views on people like creflo and copeland and such people - isn't simply amazing that even in our pride and arrogance God still has a plan to prosper us, plans for us to have a hope and a future. We all may disagree which Paul says is ok cause it happens, but can we all agree that none of us are Anti-christs, we all proclaim that Jesus is Lord and that he died and rose again. Without him we'd be no-where. Let's walk hand in hand even if sometimes we can't see eye to eye.

[@tom11zz884]

How much is Creflo Dollar worth?

[@Ricodabodyguard22]

Wasn't Jesus' purpose of living life in the body of man (the descendant of Adam) was so he could fulfill the "Laws" that man (through his own flesh) could never fulfill, to give us "rest" from our "labouring"?

[@penseesublime]

Please calm down. The Bible says:"Thou shalt not judge others, for the same measure you use to judge others will be used to judge you." Who are we to judge others when we are all imperfect? Prosperity is a good thing and God approves of it. It is like having good health, wisdom, knowledge, knowing what to say and how to say it. As long as you hate prosperous people and prosperity, you will not prosper. Think positively and have peace.
