Michael,I agree 100 percent with you on this subject. Jesus said the poor you will always have with you (John 12:8) and it should be our desire to take care of the poor ( Galatians 2:10 ). The guilt trip that some of these Evangelists and Pastors give their hearers about money,rather it be on t.v. or internet or in a church building is manipulation, which is witchcraft. Our devotion to Christ must come from a clean and pure heart ( Psalms 51 ) and also we should and must do as our Lord Jesus did in ( Acts 1:1 Jesus began both to do and teach ) in other words Let us practice what we preach. this application is for everyone, not just those in the postion of authority

Blessings in Jesus
