I'm sorry, but just because one doesn't agree that pastors should be teaching their congregations to covet money doesn't mean that one believes God wants believers to be broke. Those are separate issues...and besides, why do these men teach that the money should be sent to their ministries, in order to be a blessing? I would rather see people SAVE or INVEST that money, so that it can multiply and be a blessing to me and those around me...what about giving to struggling nonprofit organizations that help people instead of sending it to ministries that are obviously doing very well financially? Or, what about TITHING in your OWN congregation? Or agitating for real change in your municipality, so that there are SOLUTIONS to homelessness, poverty, disease, etc., and not just BAND-AIDS?
And in critiquing these men, we are exercising our right to our own views...just because someone questions doesn't mean they're "hating"; it's called a difference of opinion.
