Video: Evangelist Swindles Teenagers Out Of Thousands

"Once you drink of his presence and his word, it is your duty to turn back around and give back to that which has offered you the drink."

Unbelievable.  By the way...that may sound like a Bible verse.  It's not.  But to the gullible, largely teen congregation in the video below, it sounds just as "true" as the rest of the "gospel" that has been preached to them.



I guess the Bible is no longer printed with Matthew chapter ten.  It was when I was a kid.  In it, Jesus said,
8“Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Freely you received, freely give. 9“Do not acquire gold, or silver, or copper for your money belts, 10or a bag for your journey, or even two coats, or sandals, or a staff; for the worker is worthy of his support."
Then again, Evangelicals today believe in a literal translation of the Bible.  Since Jesus didn't specifically mention a million dollar home or a Mercedes Benz they can technically justify their actions before god, right?

And American feel threatened by radical Islam?  Please.
