I would be behind you 200% if he obtained the means by only his church. However,he has a thriving business that he owns 100% without the support of his ministry.My only question I have for people is why is it so hard to accept when a minister or pastor lives in a mansion like this but its acceptable for a movie star, a singer or a rapper. People need to do research before you just assume that a preacher is just stealing from the church, its many of them struggling day to day to live. I'm sure its not God's desire for us to suffer in poverty, with bad credit and a 1 bedroom apartment. What's the difference?
And to answer your question, I think what makes a person and man or woman of God, is their faith and belief in God. Also , their desire to follow and be committed to his will for their lives.
it is a contradictory lifestyle regardless of how he earned his funds. how can you preach from the new testament every sunday talking about the struggles of the apostles and the suffering of jesus and humility, the meek shall inherit the earth, etc. when you live in material overindulgence. you can't do so justly. it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Aww, c'mon, it isn't like the Vatican is really, really nice inside... the Pope lives in total, abject poverty, so as to use every dollar/euro/yen to help the truly poor of the world.
I'll be honest, I source as much as I can! I usually source stories and pictures that I find already on the internet. I try to provide the source to each blog I get from other blogs or websites. Outside of that I put my own spin to each blog I do and when I don't I do my best to note the source.
Because I'm ((NOT)) here to compete with any other blog and because there's enough (((cyber))) space for EVERYONE and because other bloggers arms are too short to box with ((this)) GOD hehe, I don't have the desire or need to steal information from anyone's blog. I do source from some of my favorite blogs listed above, but many times I just do my own web search for 'interesting' information to post.
If I fail to list the source for a blog or don't remember where I got a picture from please inform me and I will note it on my blog, and direct my readers to that site. Thanks....

Still Stressing this matter? huh... Ok well my question to you is if you had the means to do so would you live this way? I know I would. ~ Kendra

What EXACTLY is he doing for the common folk of ATL?
I know he's a "man of God", but what EXACTLY makes a person a man/woman of God?
