Why do well meaning people send him money?

[Wesley Briggman]

Televangelist Kenneth Copeland Inside Edition interview where he defends using THREE private jets | Daily Mail Online

Jas 4:4 KJV - Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.


He looks demonic to me.

Speaking about passages in the Old Testament regarding the wealth of Abraham, he says he 'gets excited talk about it because I love it'.

 

[tyndale1946]

Well I know one thing I don't send this CHARLATAN any money and I don't know anyone that does... Brother Glen

2 Corinthians 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Right, why do well meaning people do anything dumb?

I was extremely back sudden for many years. My life was a complete mess. Through a very strange series of events, I came about some Kenneth Copeland audio tape. Listening to the tapes, I came under extreme conviction. I decided to fly cross country to Anaheim Ca to attend his West Coast Believers Convention. I repented and completely surrendered to Christ. I honestly believe I would be dead by now if not for the ministry of Copeland.
I have major problems with a lot of what he says, teaches, and does. I must say that God used him in my life.
I gave him $20,000 for his first citation X. I do not regret it one bit.

It wasn't dumb though.

I know an older woman who felt guilty about sending Jim & Tammy Bakker money, after they were exposed as quax. I told her she'd sent it WITH GOOD INTENT, believing it would be used for God's purposes, & I believed God views it that way. I asked her to ask her pastor, whom I know to be a real man of God's. She did, & now no longer feels guilty.

Remember, Sportzz Fanzz, one of Satan's tricks on Christians is to cause them to feel guilty about past sins, which Jesus has already forgiven. He hopes to make a Christian feel so guilty he/she will begin to doubt their salvation.

Never forget: "RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU." But he will be back, so keep resisting!

In his early years, Jim Baker was doing a good work.

Many years ago - a very old lady sent one of the televangelist ( I forget which one) sent a large portion
of her health. Shortly, thereafter she passed away - and her (adult) children sued the ministry to retrieve
the donations as the children felt it was given under duress.

Not sure how it ended - if anyone knows would appreciate some help.

They probably lost it.
