Sometimes one needs to vent. Sometimes not. To vent or not to vent. I’ll vent.
Those televangelists who use God, Jesus, and the need for salvation to make a living – a very good living – by peddling their DVD’s, programs and the like – should rot in hell. I share an equal disdain for the – won’t say it. I’ll stop here with naming names and just let the fruit of what they are all about speak for itself.
Ever been to a great Christian site, filled with inspirational stuff, only to see that every other page or article encouraged you to buy the DVD…the T-Shirt…the mug….the WHATEVER…it’s all about making bucks. They see new Christians as easy prey for hustling stuff.
OK…I have an attitude, but I feel as if it’s not far from Jesus’ attitude when he overturned the tables of the money-changers, those selling doves and other sacrificial animals. Jesus had disdain for those who made a living off of the needs of others to reconcile themselves with God. Parasites!
If you can fill in the blanks as to who and what ministry fits the bill, that’s great. If you can’t…please pray for discernment.
I do pontificate!
