I do. I have seen many on tv who claim to know God but do not live by what the word says, nor do they bear "fruit"--Satan is crafty and one thing he does is he uses the Bible against God- and uses relegion...that is why when we get saved- believing in what Jesus did- we receive the Holy Spirit- who teaches us all truth..when reading the Word of God.
John 14:26
But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

Most definitely. It is very obvious. It is not the fact that they do not bear fruit, because they do bear fruit. They bear "rotten fruit." They do not bear "good fruit."

2 Corinthians 4:4 says that "the god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers."

That is exactly what he does with these televangelists. He uses these ones to spread false doctrines. These men and women intermeddle with politics. A huge problem. The two are like beer and wine, they do not mix. Pat Robertson is supposedly a 'Conservative,' yet a religious leader and always seems to be in trouble for saying all the wrong words. If he was not in the middle of such politics, it would spare him some trouble. Now with Ted Haggard, another hypocrite. Preaches to his congregation about rejecting same-sex marriage, but yet he does not practice what he preaches. Faith without works is dead. You can have all the faith you want, but if you do not act in harmony in faith, then you are worse than a person without faith.

James 1:22-24 says, "However, become doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves with false reasoning. [v23] For if anyone is a hearer of the word, and not a doer, this one is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror. [v24] For he looks at himself, and off he goes and immediately forgets what sort of man he is."

James 1:26, 27 says, "If any man seems to himself to be a formal worshiper and yet does not bridle his tongue, but goes on deceiving his own heart, this man’s form of worship is futile. [v27] The form of worship that is clean and undefiled from the standpoint of our God and Father is this: to look after orphans and widows in their tribulation, and to keep oneself without spot from the world."

Isn't it something how scriptures that were written many many years ago can be so relevant to today? 2 Timothy 3:1-5 also mentioned how people will have a form of godly devotion, but proving false to its power. Such ones have a form of godly devotion, but not abide by Bible principles. How sad?

Satan uses these people as pupeteers and guides them in the way that he chooses and expect more of these things in the future.

For starters there is no Satan. Now on to TV preachers....... Its the money, stupid. Always has been and always will. These preachers have worked out that they can live the high life by preying on other peoples fears. The bible was written by men in order to promote those men into positions of power. It has nothing to do with being good. One US preacher has just had to resign after it was proved that he had had inappropriate sexual relations with some of his followers, theres the power thing again. Yes these preachers are evil. There is a great quote that goes somethig like this........ "man will never be free untill the last king has been strangled with the entrails of the last priest".

Unquestionably yes. D is for Devil and Deceiver .. if he can get into a TV preacher then he has access to millions all in one cosey go, so the deception is spread out to alot of people in one hit.

Unfortunately men suffer the age-old sin of pride which, after all, is the singular reason we're all in this mess in the first place. For the leaders who deceive God has special punishment ... so let them enjoy the "fruits" of their blindness because sure as anything they're going to pay for them one day.

And why do preachers yell and scream anyway, it's such a turn-off to the Word.

I believe satan works in many of our churches leaders. They are after all men who are given to temptation. One must learn to discern the righteous by the way they lead, rather than what they say.

Televangelists are extremely smart hoaxers, and that they prey upon the sensitivities and fears of the conventional Christian or believer. while a televangelist says that he/she has spoken with "God", he/she is completely enjoying into the psyche of desperate, faulty people who're lacking in self-incredibly worth and self-self assurance. human beings of religion prefer to pay attention that "God" famous itself to mortal guy. It supplies them a pretend experience of confirmation in what they have faith. Like Adolf Hitler, a televangelist excites his congregation to the factor of ecstasy, then convinces them that what they felt is the presence of "God" and certainty. that is variety of a good rock stay overall performance. A believer "feels" a connection. the sorrowful factor approximately that is that bigotry, hate, and intollerance, as nicely through fact the preacher's own hates and fears, are disregarded to the congregation. The televangelist is the understanding con-guy. money is the con-guy's motivation to dedicate the crime. The "follower" is the only with the psychological weak point. human beings of religion have a tendency to have faith that their accomplishments take place by their "God" through fact they have been conditioned to have faith that good in basic terms occurs by faith and thought. The conditioning starts off at a youthful and impressionable age, and keeps throughout the time of existence. And while a guy or woman is taught to have faith that something different than thought is condemnation or damnation, that guy or woman generally won't look someplace else for understanding out of worry. Their view turns into slender, and that they become bitter in the direction of all different innovations and innovations. a guy or woman starting to be above the "brainwashing" turns into an outcast and a factor of society that is unnecessarily feared and ridiculed through fact human beings of religion are taught that something exterior the religion is evil and may well be destroyed. i like to alter the "a" in "pray" wit an "e". I try this every time I take place to pay attention a televangelist ask his congregation to "pray". His congregation is his "prey". there is something else that I truthfully have observed approximately Believers. maximum of them can not understand the Bible that they study. It become written so complicated (and contradicting) that maximum Believers want somebody to assist them understand all the Biblical chaos. it style of feels to have been designed that way. A e book written for the human beings could be written so the conventional guy or woman can study it and lose the middle-guy.

I think ignorance and capitalism work in many TV preachers. For example, people give this guy hundreds of millions of dollars. Check him out in action!
