Stories of multimillion dollar mansions, rolls royces, helicopters, fabulous apartments in Trump Tower in NYC, accumulation of private fortunes, and other excesses are common among TV ministries. How is any of this behavior evidence of giving to God?

Funny I was just asking my BF that! Shouldn't believing in God be free? How is it that it costs money to belong to a church? God doesn't charge to make an appearance...Understandably, Preachers do need a source of income to live but they have gotten way out of hand! Excessive living seems to be a trend. It must help those people not think about all the needy children suffering in the world.

stepping into touch with the lord is ordinary, this is referred to as praying, and doing stable deeds :) ignore regarding the hacks on television! Donating to a reliable reason is a superb element, yet lots of the money donated to preachers on the televison is going into their enormous fat wallets and there gorgous difficult mansions, they say that isn't genuine...this is genuine. you're precise, that's a con, and a damn stable one....inspite of the undeniable fact that it particular aint a thank you to get to heaven lol. those preachers are no longer something extra then fairly stable sales adult men!

"But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber." 2 Peter:1-3

No different than catholics giving their money to the catholic cult. The genocidal Vatican is the richest "nation" on earth.
Catholics are not saved and are not Christians, because catholics believe a false gospel of works that leads to eternal hell (Galatians 1).
