RockWealth.org (Financial Solution with Todd Coontz). I have rarely in my lifetime watched these televangelists. I'm up earlier than I want to be this morning and I come across this guy on TV offering seven days of miracles if you sow your seed of $100.00. OMG!!!!!! May God have mercy on your evil soul Mr. Coontz.
First the guys is talking about John's version where small boy had five loaves and two fishes and the boy had four options because he has free will and could have kept it, ate it, given it to someone else or given it to Jesus (which he did) and Jesus multiplies this small seed and creates an abundance. Apparently Mr. Coontz is now a miracle worker like Jesus and if you pledge your small seed of $100 he promises abundance or at the very least, seven days or miracles.
I have heard you guys talk about these people preying on the vulnerable but as I sat here watching for maybe 10 minutes, I couldn't believe my ears and to think people fall for this fish tale, hook line and sinker, is appalling.
I know I sound naive but truly I have never really seen this thievery in action.
We need to pray for these poor people who are desperate and fall for this crap.
Ok, just needed to get that off my chest.

Oh, Eileen...
That isn't even the half of it!!! Listen...Jesse Duplantis..has so many things, cars, planes, jewelry, etc.. He tells people that God wants everyone to have things..I once was watching TBN and Duplantis was actually showing off his ROLEX!! AND some kind of big fancy car right there on stage with him!! He tells people, God blesses His people with wealth and plenty only they have to sow seeds of faith!! FAITH?? I know some people who know Jesse Duplantis and they told me, "Oh, you just don't know..he gives away so much money! He doesn't tell how much he gives away!" Ha!! Please!!! If he has so much to give away that means he's taken in a lot more money than HE needs!!! These men have NO scruples at all!! Money, money, money...gimme, gimme, gimme....it makes you want to puke!! :P

I used to be a member of Rod Parsley's church many years ago. He lived in a mansion on a gorgeous property with horses and large gates to keep people out. He drove BMWs and luxury sports cars while we were homeless and then living in a very small 1 bedroom apartment with no car.
He'd drive right by me as I walked 2 miles to work in the snow and rain every day but never once offered me a ride. Some of the teenagers I worked with at the time, considered by many to be "of ill repute", were often more than happy to offer me a ride, however.
You better believe God used this to drag me out of the church. But being thickheaded it took me a while to "get it".
So what this Todd Coontz guy is doing doesn't surprise me one bit. I've heard it all before.
They rob widows and orphans and laugh their way to the bank, but God will make all things right when He decides that it's judgment time!
We've all been part of the harlot church. The only difference between us and them is we've been dragged out of it and our eyes have been opened to the truth. I do feel sorry for those being "taken" by his lies. But these things must happen. Count on it: God WILL use this to accomplish His will.

Pro 21:6 The contriving together of treasures by a false tongue Is a vanity whisked away for those seeking death.
ISV
2Pe 2:1 Now there were false prophets among the people, just as there also will be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies and even deny the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2Pe 2:2 Many people will follow their immoral ways, and because of them the way of truth will be maligned.
2Pe 2:3 In their greed they will exploit you with deceptive words. The ancient verdict against them is still in force, and their destruction is not asleep.
Peace...Mark

Hi Eileen
God has not strengthened , purged, purified or circumcised their weak hearts yet from out of which are made manifest all forms of evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness and blasphemies.
2Ti 3:5 having a form of godliness, but denying the power of it; even turn away from these.
Rom 2:28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that outwardly in flesh;
Rom 2:29 but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart; in spirit and not in letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
All are in the Plan of God. Few are chosen to come to the full knowledge of Truth.
