You gotta love how leftists who do not even believe in Christ, who generally hate Christian's, who NEVER help any of the faith based outreaches anywhere(many do not even know how much the Body does for the down trodden).....but yet they try to use Jesus to manipulate and lecture people over something like helping the poor by use of authoritarian government theft.
The Lord calls GIVERS. The less you tax people the MORE they give. The more you tax? The LESS there is for those in need.
They act like the government doesnt already scam and waste billions without doing a fucking thing for anyone. CA has homeless shitting in streets and it's so taxed its ridiculous.
Pick a blue state and solve all the problems there and SHOW us all. Because so far all we see is waste and neglect and tax slavery.
Jesus Himself knew you cannot depend on the government to do HIS work.
The lord calls givers, who give to megachurches and not to people who really need it. Christians are some of the greediest people on the planet.
Lotus prosperity cultists are not Christian's.
If you KNEW any Christian's, youd know that.
How many leftwing grifting politicians have been able to rob everyone in the country? That doesnt seem to bother any of you but this does? At least the people getting preyed upon by these people are willing. Joel Osteen isnt taking money right out of the mouths of working class children like the politicains you want to inflict on everyone.
Imagine if these prosperity peddlers (mega churches are all prosperity peddlers) were able to decide policies and taxes? Attacking inalienable rights and trying to make the government bigger? Deciding who gets what medical intervention? Forcing everyone to participate in their bizzare religion that doesnt really care about anyone?
That's how we feel about leftism. Like it's an expensive religion we dont want to join. One that even scews science to allow crimes against humanity like abortion, allowing men to "identify" as women, and forcing medical treatments while making life unaffordable. And everyone who is a heretic in this religion is treated horribly too.
Why are you focusing on Copeland? He isnt a Christian. He is a basic scam artist....a fact so obvious that it's hard to have sympathy for the people willingly making him wealthy. He has no power or influence. He cant raise our taxes. Shut down our businesses. Start wars. Start riots. Incite violence. Copeland impacts no ones life unless they WANT him to. And believe me
.....many of those people involved in the prosperity heresy are willing participants and dont WANT to hear anything else. I've had many convos with people who eat this stuff up and tried, as a believer in Christ, to get them to see how evil and unbiblical it all is. None of them are interested in Jesus. They want prosperity. They are worshipping a version of God that looks more like the Alladin genie than Jesus. And they get angry if you try to tell them.
Sometimes God will turn people over to delusions and give them the "teachers" they want. Even the Bible addresses exactly this.
What is your political point here? Is it just that Copeland is a demonic scumbag? Because that's not doubted. Is this some slam on Christian's? Because these are not Christian's. Even Muslims know these prosperity ghouls are not Christian's.
Also again where are all the leftwing outreaches? All you ever find out there are Christian's on the actual streets helping people.
