. . . “Evangelists” sell all kinds of prayer cloth[s], charms, and other items that you hurry to buy. Deceivers like Jimmy Swaggart and many others, have succeeded in taking advantage of those who are caught up in faith, the Holy Spirit and the sincere belief in the Most High. They are the “wolves in sheep’s clothing” and “false Prophets” that Jesus spoke of. These preachers say they are spreading the gospel of the Sustainer. In truth, they are really spreading the doctrine of themselves. Their only motive is to advance their own monetary gains.

Jesus never took from his congregation. He never passed around a basket to receive pledges and donations at the end of each sermon. Jesus was always giving, multiplying bread and fish to feed the hungry, healing the sick, and raising the dead. In performing all of these miracles, he never once asked for payment, nor did he ever tell his disciples to accept money for their assistance. (Refer to Matthew 10:8-10.) Yet, these televangelists and local church preachers are always asking for your money.

. . . Can they truly heal without being paid? Is this a prerequisite to the healing process?

They call their places of worship “churches,” when the scriptures clearly state that Jesus was insulted when he realized the people were buying and selling in the “temple.” (Refer to Matthew 21:12.)
