Rich Pastors Push White Christian Nationalism: Follow The Money

“Live like rock stars in multimillion-dollar mansions”

• Wealthy preachers like Copeland, Creflo Dollar, Joel Osteen, Paula White and Benny Hinn live like rock stars, drive luxury cars, fly in private jets and do it all using donations from their faithful followers. — Religion News
• IRS moves to allow political engagement from churches, in a win for evangelical groups. Trump has long sought to revoke the tax provision blocking churches from politicking. — Politico
• Beware When Pastors Tell You Who To Vote For… Christians you are not morally obligated to vote for Trump. — Kainos Project

Follow the money

You cannot serve both God and money (Luke 16:13–31)

There is nothing wrong with being wealthy, of course. But with great wealth comes great responsibility. Regardless of your rung on the income ladder, we must remember that Jesus viewed wealth as a gift from God to be used in His service. The Parable of the Shrewd Manager teaches us that God must be the most important thing in our lives:

“No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money” (Luke 16:13–31). — BeliefNet

TakeAway: Beware of those profit from politicizing religion.
