Don't Hate, Just Don't Participate

All of a sudden the whole country seems to be preoccupied with the proceeds of the pastor. This is going to sound like one of those "brainwashed statements" to the non-believer, but that's the difference in our places in life. " I think God in his crown and glory is just blessing those who uplift his holy name. All power in place is allowed by God." The thing we must remember is all of God's word is true, not just the part that's convenient. If these people remember anything, I bet they remember this:
Matthew 5:18
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

I think all of the bigger names have been faced with their own personal trials themselves. Even though it may have seemed at one time or another they have been so successful in their endeavors. It may have seemed they were in charge of their own destiny, but life experiences have taught them differently. Their experiences have ranged from the death of children to being homeless drug addicts. I'm sure T.D. Jakes never imagined he would reach the heights of his present evangelical standing. To watch a ministry grow to having tens of thousands of people listening to you weekly is a miracle in itself. It's quite a feat to pack a stadium with people wanting to hear the word of God. No one is complaining about the millions of dollars they pay Lebron James for shooting a basketball. Or the fact that Will Ferrell makes $40 million for movies that may or may not be funny, doesn't seem to bother anyone. But people should show their disapproval the same way they do in those cases. Don't go to the games, or go watch the movie. Don't hate, just don't participate.
