That alone tells me he, like Paula White, is a Pentecostal, the last mainline denomination formed…..in Topeka, KS….where, of course, Midwest Trump Country. The things this “Charismatic Movement” denomination has done to stain the name of Christ are phenomenal. They are truly WACKY, especially those in its offshoot, the Word of Faith Movement, also known as the Prosperity Gospel. To see and have it all analyzed for you, the top expert and critic is the channel, JUSTIN PETERS MINISTRIES, though there are many, many others. Paula White is one of these False Teachers, along with Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyers, Kenneth & Gloria Copeland, Benny Hinn, Fred Price, Creflo Dollar, Rod Parsley, Robert Scheuller, Paul & Jan Crouch, and so, so many others, as this false teaching is wildly popular WORLDWIDE. It makes their followers poor, and these Charlatans FILTY RICH. They promise Health and Wealth in exchange for “send us your seed money.” These are some of the very kind of False Prophets Christ warned about in Matthew 7. These Frauds have been doing this for the past 70+ years, raking in Billions Every Single Year…no joke. I have a cousin who’s been a lifelong follower, even went to a Christian College, looked like the perfect Blue-eyed Blonde Barbie Doll (High School Cheerleader, Homecoming Queen, etc.), and was raised to be a good wife and wonderful mother. How’d her life turn out? Three marriages to abusive men and a nasty case of Parkinson’s Disease.
