Money can’t buy divine favor! That’s the truth. Jesus cursed the rich and blessed the poor (Luke 6:20,24), while your neighborhood prosperity Preacher blesses the rich and curses the poor.

“For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.”— 2 Cor. 8:9
Do you pay your Preacher for God’s blessings?
Then he is a hireling! Jesus Christ, the Messiah, never had anything good to say about hirelings Why would you trust the judgment of a man you have to pay for prayers and prophecies Naturally, with a little bribery he will give you a “good” prophecy This is the way of the Witch Doctor. “Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” Money can’t buy divine favor! That’s the truth. Jesus cursed the rich and blessed the poor while your neighborhood prosperity Preacher blesses the rich and curses the poor. “Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.”
Do you pay your Preacher to go to Church?
The House of God shouldn’t operate like the marketplace. Jesus flipped the tables and chairs of the salesmen and moneychangers Money shouldn’t be on your mind at all when you go to the House of God. Nor should it be in your prayers You cannot serve God and money! It’s impossible. Jesus said, “for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other”
Do you admire your Preacher because he is rich?
Or does your Preacher teach you to admire others who are rich? Jesus solemnly declared to everyone, everywhere, that it is nearly impossible for a rich man to “enter into the Kingdom of God” Why would you want to be rich and famous? That which is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God It is very rare for a “wise” and “noble” man of the world to get truly converted to Christ Rich men are to be pitied because most of them are void of true faith in God, and spiritually bankrupt, while God has chosen the poor to be rich in faith
Do you want to follow Jesus Christ?
Then stop following your Preacher. Only follow him inasmuch as he follows Jesus Christ Face the facts of the Bible! Most modern-day Preachers are nothing like Jesus Christ. The Messiah shocked the public with the free grace of His healing touch He never once asked for money! The Son of God was a foot-washer, and He taught His followers to be humble in following His example ( Php. 2:5). The Apostles followed suit in obedience to the Word To avoid reproach they would refuse to charge people for anything at all, even when it came to tithes and offerings Why? They didn’t want the message of the Gospel to be confounded by the presence of money like Simon the Sorcerer was deceived to think that the gift of the Holy Spirit could be purchased with shillings
“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.”— 1 Tim. 6:9-10
This is not something that we can do for God. This is something that God does for us (Eph. 2:8-10). We cannot save ourselves! We cannot change ourselves! Sin is a hereditary problem that has infected the entire human race.
Most people think that if you have confessed your sins to God, then you have certainly repented of your sins. However, according to the Bible, confession is not the same thing as repentance.
Most people think that if you are sorry for your sins and you confess them to God, then you have certainly repented of your sins. However, according to the Bible, confession is not the same thing as repentance.
Someone is trying to deceive you. Are you a Christian? Chances are that you have already been deceived! Most modern Churches ignore these warnings from God in the New Testament. What about you?
The real Jesus is the one that matches the description of the Bible. Real Christianity is the one whose faith and practice is aligned with Holy Scripture. There is “another Jesus” that is deceiving backslidden or unconverted professing Christians.
Things in this generation might change if men and women pick up the Bible and read it for themselves with trembling, humbling themselves to God in truth (Isa. 66:1-2;Isa. 57:15).
