I believe Paul Crouch to be a Christian. You may not like the way TBN ask for money but to say that he and his family are not Christians isn’t right. That is being judgemental.

One of the most difficult tasks of a translator is to discern the writings of others, albeit discernment is a gift from God.
I am not a translator nor do I claim to have mastered the English language. However, I would like to respond to Toya’s comments (July 20, 2008)
It is clear there is a respect shown for Paul Couch that is not demonstrated for two of the bodies of the Trinity. That is demonstrated in the way Toya spelled, ‘holy spirit’, ‘christ’, ‘tbn’., and in the use of ‘Sir’.

Did you watch the whole show Sir ? Or did only pull things out of it for the purpose of making your point? As a viewer, Paul Crouch said that he doesn’t need our money ,but he was not boasting about his wealth. He was simply saying that even if you don’t pledge.. Gods hand is on this ministry and we are not the determining factor in the shows longevity.I pledge because holy spirit moved me too. The men on that show were simply a conduit an instrument for open and willing participants. Whether they were corny, white, black , short ,tall . God used those men to usher in the prescence of God. Did not God use Moses the murderer, David the adulter, and prostitutes. God is not just the God of the local church or the baptist or the methodist . We are a BODY of christ. It takes a leg and arm and tbn has touched the hearts of millions and brought them to christ. I love you all Godbless

When I read Revelation Chapter 3 verse 14, I think of the Word of Faith preachers and TBN, And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen,the faithful and true witness,the begining of the creation of God;15) I know thy works,that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.16) So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.17) Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing :and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

TBN is thriving because most so called christians are ignorant of the scriptures. They take scripture out of context to mean what they want it to mean. If we don’t rightly divide the word of truth, we get confusion and God is not the author of confusion. They are taking blessings given to Israel and claiming them for us today in the age of grace.

Joye H hit it right… I can’t tell you how many times I a “grouped” together with these fakers in non-believers minds. They think that TBN is Christianity!!! How false and how sad. I honestly don’t believe many of these fakers on TV are even saved.

I feel as though I’m being awaken from a daze. I have often wondered about ‘the asking for money’ so blatently on tbn and most local churches around the world,and it shames me to think that unbelievers will actually see this and think that Christianity is all or mostly about our leaders begging for money to spread the Word of a God who can’t seem to take care of His own finances if we proclaim Him to be such a Powerful God. It is shaming and I often think to myself, that had I not experienced Christ for myself, I wouldn’t want to be associated with such people under the banner of ‘Christianity’. Now if I think in such a way, what will the unbelievers think? It makes it all the more a challenge to win souls to the Lord.

The Word of God will always draw the hearts of the hungry to Him wherever it is preached, but we have to pray for the Spirit of discernment so that the same people are not turned away from Christ because He is being largely misrepresented by the same greedy preachers. Thank you for your report and for awakening the ability to interpret and speak out the misgivings I’ve had in my spirit.

God Bless,

Joye

It angers me that these godless liars continue to promulgate their vile trade, but what can I do? The Word of God tells me that these things must happen and then the end will come.

Dear friends, let us stick to the REAL Jesus of the Bible like never before. Hallelujah! He’s coming back soon!

Thank you Michael, for your sober and Berean reportage.

In Christ,
Sandy.

This is the reason why so many non-believers think that Christianity is all about rich preachers. What ever happened to, “take nothing with you and ask for nothing”. All these TV preachers remind me of a Sunday morning comedy show with back-up singers.

The nail has been hit on the head….again.
It never ceases to amaze me the lengths that the adminstration and hosts of the TBN network and its partners will go. I sit here in Nigeria and marvel in compassion for the number of souls that are being led astray by the anti & extra Scriptural doctrines and messages that are passed for prophesy & revelation. It only takes the gift of the Holy Spirit and a heart and mind devoted to Scriptures to see through the mess that is propagated over this mainstream media network.
I pray that more righteous and bold children of God will heed the voice of our Lord when He seeks for us to speak forth His word, that many will hear and turn from their wicked ways. God is not mocked, this is only a mockery of what men have turned the word of God into. May the Lord have mercy.

God bless you Mr. Gaudiosi
