Jesse Duplantis and Benny Hinn are worshipers of money, greedy idolaters and are in rebellion to God because they refuse to obey the following Scriptures:
1 John 3:16-18 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.
Luke 12:33-34 Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Galatians 6:10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
Hebrews 13:3 Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow prisoners, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.
James 1:22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
James 2:14-18 What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds." Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.

In my observations, I find most televangelists are more concerned about the Almighty Dollar than the Almighty Lord

This is a VERY touchy topic, as I have mixed opinions.
One thing I can say is that the bible says touch not my annointed.
So if they are annointed of God, but maybe fallen off track, I do not want to slander them.
I would prefer that we pray for them. Pray that the God of the Bible will put hedges around their eyes, that they will only see Christ to $$Coin$$
There is noting wrong with wealth. In the Old Testament ones blessing was often times measured by their wealth.
There is something wrong with the love of money.
Money is a great asset for the kingdom, if spent with Godly wisdom.
Amen

They are doing what God has asked them to do.Because of their obedience to Him,God has multiplied their blessings. Anyone who is obedient to God will receive blessings from Him. Could you get up in front of millions of people and preach God's word if God asked you to? Would you be willing to give up your worldy possessions and leave your comfort zone to become a missionary for God in countries where you would have to do without even the smallest luxuries you are now used to? Would you be willing to become a Pastor of a small church? Would you be willing to do whatever God asks of you no matter the cost? Don't be so judgemental of the ones who accept the calling in their lives. They are reaping their rewards. They aren't worshipping money. They are worshipping God who has so richly blessed them. Why would you begrudge them what they have earned?

It would appear that seems to be the case with both of these men...so sad. I wonder if they EVER concider what the Lord says..Heb 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

WRONG, these preachers run big organizations that cost mega bucks to sustain. In Deut. 14 as well as many other places, it pleases God to offer a portion of one's intake to further the cause. No one is forced at these meetings anyway. Are you as concerned about drug $, self-indulgency, oil barons who will try to conquer the world? Their motives are quite diff

Because they bow to the god of this world, the devil. The love of money is the root of all evil.

Joh 8:7
So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first."

"Satan is the accuser of the brethren' .... and apparently SO ARE YOU.
Jessie preaches the Word of God Faithfully....that is far more than I can say about YOU, Pal.
