In an interview, the Rev. Benny Hinn Ministries is a tax-exempt organization. Hinn travels by private jet. Efforts to reach a ministry spokesman were unsuccessful. One way in which you can support us — at no additional cost to you — is by shopping at Amazon.

Too old for that anyway, ;. I only listened to the 2nd recording of 29 min. The speaker read various Bible verses supporting not being contentious. Aside from the actual subject I found it somewhat evasive as it was nothing to do with the audit. I found the final comments from 28 min worrying for employees. And rejoice always, again I say rejoice, stop being bitter, stop complaining, be happy, be rejoicing. Do I hear an amen? TS00 : but seriously, could a person who loves others as self amass great wealth when there are so many needy?

Yes definitely. I have had the blessing of knowing a few wealthy people in my small circle of life friends and acquaintances. Their focus through much of life was on productive tasks where they excelled and the wealth appeared not to be the goal but was a by-product.

One gentlemen who I knew for over forty years went to his grave just last year. A wonderful man, despite his concerted efforts later in life into his 90s, his wealth still increased faster than he could give it away. On the occasion of a few visits, conversation revealed it seemed a burden to him. Even though I do not hold that level of wealth I can still recognize that giving money is a difficult responsibility and finding worthy causes takes much time, wisdom and continual revision.

Giving freely carries with it the potential for negative as well as positive outcome. Yeah, we used to buy into such capitalistic tropes — they do make one feel better. Less is better. Stuff will control you. I came into the world with nothing and I have most of that left. I am praying for your brother.

That sounds like an awful issue-edema in the throat. It must make him fee like he is choking. TS00 : Yeah, we used to buy into such capitalistic tropes — they do make one feel better. Capitalistic trope? TWW used to be a site where I could respectfully engage but some of my last outings here have been very discouraging. Does this person exist in your community? Do you have the ability to find and assess the situation and apply the right remedy?

It will likely take a lot of time and not money, money may actually be the wrong regimen. There are organizations that purport to have this capacity but are they legit and do they do it right? When you are dealing with thousands of dollars there is at least the ability to deal face to face, for larger sums it becomes a much different strategy. It is one reason that poorer people are often the most generous per capita, they have the direct contact with other people with such needs and hence they give more as a percentage of their meager income to help than that given by the typical middle class.

I of moderate means have found it very difficult to determine whether someone will use money for the purpose they advertise. I have also had opportunity to regret my support for some organizations. As for the man I mentioned, he was one of unassailable character and to dismiss him with such snark suggests a lack of imagination. His remaining assets are now largely setup in a trust for some organizations, I was on the board of one of them.

Just for the record I felt smarmy soliciting a donation from someone I knew well, even though I believed in the organization. Darlene : Did I understand your words correctly, Nick? In an intriguingly-poised Fourth Test, England set India a target of to win. This could go either way! They bought this in March Again, I apologize for being rude. Having moved from one place in my mind to another, I find myself triggered before I know it, and say more than I ought.

We have no great wealth, but in trying to share some of what we have through the years, we realized that the wisest approach was neither to trust every organization that called itself charitable, nor to hand out dollars on the street. Even of those we have chosen throughout the years, there are some institutions I could not now support.

I am far more prone, in my latter days, to seek ways to support needs within my own community. For instance, some states have had a good deal of flooding, some fires or some other natural disasters; such events put innocent victims in a state of genuine, unpreventable need. There may be no tax write off, but I am leaning toward directly helping people I see in genuine need, rather than hoping some organization actually uses donations legitimately, rather than to enrich someone.

It is the tax code, and our desire to make the best use of it, which creates much of our difficulty, would you not agree?

It is this sort of built-in straight-jacket, which has been carefully crafted to limit our choices, which I am finding unnecessarily confining. I feel deeply for needy children, even in situations in which their parents have made and continue to make poor choices. There are many mothers with small children, sometimes in abusive or other unhealthy situations, who have very few choices due to financial need.

Sadly, I do not think we can outgive these needs. I struggle with my angst at the world, my dismay with the worsening poverty and misery of many, and my growing belief that American capitalism is, by far, not the best manifestation of loving others as self, and the conflict that creates with those who view it as the only way.

I am not about to get into some discussion about this. However, I am curious because what you have said is pretty common among humans. I am working on the assumption that since you have mentioned this several time, here in public, that you will not mind my asking. Max : They would have to twist the following Scripture beyond reason to justify enormous salaries and benefits.

They could use that passage to justify excessive wealth and income but would have to ignore these verses:. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping. Max : Less is better. Bait you like perch and blue-gills with baubles and glitz that will part you from your hard earned cash.

TS00 : It is the tax code, and our desire to make the best use of it, which creates much of our difficulty, would you not agree? That is a good point. There is also the loophole with stocks where you can give appreciated stocks and deduct the appreciated value while avoiding capital gains tax.

Giving privately to someone you know in need insures it is to a good and needy cause. Also charities have overhead so for every dollar you give to a charity only a portion goes to the actual charitable cause.

So that is where all those payment went to buy this expensive house. Muff Potter : Bait you like perch and blue-gills with baubles and glitz that will part you from your hard earned cash. One of my few vices in life is fishing.

I would rather be throwing hard earned cash at fishing equipment than supporting millionaire megachurch pastors. I overpay my son-in-law, too. I agree; have been scaling back my support to para-church corporations and perhaps will exit entirely at some point. Dee — if this does not violate site comment policy it may approach the boundaries — am not sure and am still learning.

If you decide to remove it, I cheerfully accept that , I think this page may interest TS00 and other readers who have similar concerns.

I suspect that the author, Randall Wray, may have had some disagreeable experience with church people as there are places where there is gratuitous snark, though not as snarky as things that routinely appear at TWW.

TS00 : my dismay with the worsening poverty and misery of many, and my growing belief that American capitalism is, by far, not the best manifestation of loving others as self. At the root this may be the issue. While we both find the large diversion of charitable funds into private hands to be reprehensible, especially in the church, the resentment of wealth is a bad road to go down.

Wealth in this current age is not the old inherited privilege and land holdings that defined it for most of recorded history, the type of wealth represented by the rich young ruler of Jesus day. That wealth was closely guarded and once lost was not regained. There are now many multimillionaires in most communities and with high earners they usually achieve wealth through saving.

The wealthy person is not the one with the BMW and the McMansion but rather the one with the modest house and the 8 year old Ford in the driveway. If anything I have found the big spenders to be stingy and the savers to be generally the most generous both with charities and in business dealings. I am curious if there is a direct link between the ability to save and the ability to give. Our societal problem with mal-distribution of wealth, those who collect at the bottom, will not be solved by resentment of those with wealth.

I would also like to add the encouragement that there is not increasing poverty in the world but rather an enormous number of people daily being lifted out of poverty. Simultaneously there are several books written that detail how regardless of the type government or economy the same relative income disparity remains, the major differences between systems are in the total wealth generated.

TS00 : American capitalism is, by far, not the best manifestation of loving others as self, and the conflict that creates with those who view it as the only way. I believe it is a bad mistake to think that a political system can either cause or solve the problem of people not doing a better job of loving others. Thersites : If anything I have found the big spenders to be stingy and the savers to be generally the most generous both with charities and in business dealings.

It helps to be frugal toward oneself. The Thorsten Veblen House. Take a look at those garish, vulgar bathrooms. We can but hope! How many people must suffer before your blood thirst is satisfied? You people are truly horrible human beings. I attempted to post this from my phone with no success. So, if the host has to approve comments, then you too are culpable for anything that happens to who does live at this address.

And the fact that you are not allowing a dissenting opinion to appear on your site reveals the type of person you really are. Nathan Priddis : That book will never appear on any religious recommended reading list. We should praise God for the wealthy who generously give to support the needy, and also missionaries and churches which would otherwise not be able to function. Jesus was supported by Joanna and other women of means throughout His ministry. Those of us who, like me, have limited funds give as we can, but the Lord has graciously given to some the responsibility of wealth, and many less well-off have benefited.

We less affluent believers should not judge nor envy but rather rejoice that the Lord has blessed some in this way to be a blessing to His people and for His purposes. At the same time some have become wealthy when they should not have done such as some pastors who have been mentioned. Because of greed these people have grasped their wealth instead of viewing it as a privilege and honor to use for the kingdom.

It has become a snare for them and they deserve to be criticized. I am very wary to whom I give and like others choose the known need rather than risking donating to the coffers of people like them. Pingback: Should The Master's University insist on loyalty to authority more than care for the oppressed?

Here's the Joy. I am reporting your comment to the authorities due to your threat. I have your IP address and other information that will be given to law enforcement. Frankly, I had taken John MacArthur off my radar … until he started hanging out with the Together for the Gospel cast of characters.

Of course, the YRR do represent another market for his wares. Voila — problem solved! So simple and so effective! Amongst his true believers, anyway. I was expecting your sentence to include something related to consuming appropriate doses of the right beverages, or suspending reality, or sleep deprivation, etc. Clockwork Angel : These people exiting church need to learn a bit of tolerance for people who have different political views, perhaps try to understand why they think they way they do.

You realize they are trying to introduce legislation to make it okay to preach politics in church. Ken F aka Tweed : I was expecting your sentence to include something related to consuming appropriate doses of the right beverages, or suspending reality, or sleep deprivation, etc.

It could be taken wrongly. My goodness, Jeffery, blood lust? Good grief, what exactly are you afraid will happen? The Welch group is paid to produce the gty programming that airs on dish network.

And other videos as assigned. Who is suffering besides the people abused under the authoritarian leadership of this church and school? Ken F aka Tweed quoting SiteSeer :. In the vein of the Danvers and Nashville Statements, MacArthur, others unveiled today an anti social justice manifesto:. Who else? A Duggar son-in-law, controversialist James White and daughter Summer…. The squawkers over at the Pullet and Hen blog claim they have proof Al Mohler has forbidden faculty from participating:.

These mountains are a transition zone between the scrublands of the LA basin and the Mojave Desert inland; I do not know where the address stands on that spectrum.

Burn-and-Rebuild two-step. Max : Gov. Said island has to be in the Diomedes, right in the middle of the Bering Strait.

Nick Bulbeck : Everything Nick says makes perfect sense once you…. Remember Smaug when Bilbo took that one item from his hoard? Most likely. Amid True Believer followers in general. Christians are such easy marks…. The last few years I have foregone reading much of their offerings except for the occasion when it is a subject of interest. When you have some knowledge it reveals astounding the lack of understanding of many in the news media, perhaps even the lack of even a desire for understanding.

I think we are in the midst of an information revolution similar to the invention of the Guttenberg press. Many bright minds are now producing long form presentations of ideas on the internet, an hour or more in length, and getting large audiences.

Eeyore : Ricco: Such a ridiculous, over-the-top statement. What distinguishes Old Calvinism from New Calvinism? I thought all forms of Calvinism aggressively trumpeted forth and enforced all five points of Calvinism.

Being a medium-range Arminian, I reject all five points of Calvinism. I still consider humanity to be severely sinful by nature. But I take the dimmest possible view of both the general humanism of Pelagians and secular humanists, and the selective humanism of the total depravity school.

They are only holding on by their fingernails through sensational reporting. I stopped taking the evening TV news seriously years ago.

Oh no! What drivel this is. And maybe if they are oppressing someone, said person is entitled to be irritated at it. And to call them out. Headless Unicorn Guy : i. Bling is The Enemy. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pound ought and six, result misery. Lea : That sounds rather ominous to me. Yeah it does. You generic you can do just about anything in their world fundagelicalism, reformed or non, it makes no difference , pyramid schemes, portfolios that grind third world farmers into the dust, you name it.

Is there going to be any mention of the goings on in the RCC? The latest call for silence and prayer is yet another interesting development. I follow it as I can on secular news and a couple or so catholic sites, but I have no plans, zip, none, no way and no how.

I hope they get it solved. Some things are just not constructive. Muff Potter : You generic you can do just about anything in their world fundagelicalism, reformed or non, it makes no difference , pyramid schemes, portfolios that grind third world farmers into the dust, you name it. The Church has misinterpreted the bible on divorce for centuries, and this, once again, sets the error in stone. This must be what it must have felt like to have Calvin slowly take over Geneva and much more, due to his influence and watch the screws tightened ever so slowly.

Divorce and you will be burned on green wood. Too bad if your husband is an abuser. Too bad if your wife stopped loving you long ago. Too bad if you have such different perspectives on God and life that you are moving in completely opposite directions.

There is no such thing as Once married, always married. A love relationship is always voluntary; meaning the covenant is broken when one person renigs on his promises, for whatever reason. God will not compel us to remain in relationship with him, nor can an unloved spouse be compelled to remain in an unhealthy marriage. While it is true that God will never be unfaithful to us or cast us aside, he will not compel us to remain if we grow cold and desire to turn away from him.

The problem with Calvinism is that, in not allowing for the free choices of men and women to sin, nothing in this world makes sense, unless God is and loves evil. Divorce, of course, is not something God created because it was so much fun for everyone.

I believe these guys genuinely want to establish another totalitarian state like Geneva, in which their interpretations of scripture cannot be questioned. Likely true yet I felt the need to poke at the fire. An equally interesting discussion would be an articulation of reasons for not having the discussion. Jerome : In the vein of the Danvers and Nashville Statements, MacArthur, others unveiled today an anti social justice manifesto:.

I read that Manifesto. It is filled with ambiguity. I briefly looked through the signatories and one signed their name: Ima Racist, from Jesus wasa Socialist, Pa. ThM is a lower-level research degree. They are useful if you just want doctor before your name, or if you want in-depth training in some skill area. Not just marriage and divorce.

In my opinion the Bible has been misconstrued regarding other issues as well. Lea, I see you are familiar with MRA sub-culture. When I first encountered the Christian Manosphere, I was in disbelief that such hatred could be spewed in the name of God.

White, Christian males petrified and living in fear of being disenfranchised. They are hanging on to their world for dear life with all the strength they can muster. So let me see if I understand. On the one hand the law has been done away with, or so they say, but nevertheless Christians should be obeying the OT laws and teachings about divorce.

In line with that thinking, what else should christians be snatching from the bonfire that burns the old law to ashes?
