Dollar's message has been denounced by some Baptist Christians, partly for his message that religious faithfulness will be rewarded by material wealth, and partly for his assertion that "Jesus didn't come as God, he came as a man, and he did not come perfect...he grew into his perfection" with his December 2002 message "Jesus' Growth into Son-ship." Dollar's enumeration of "Believer's Rights" also states that all true believers of God have the same miraculous abilities as Jesus himself, including the power to overcome infertility and to raise the dead.

On November 27, 2007, Creflo Dollar Ministries responded in a letter addressed jointly to Senator Grassley and Senator Max Baucus: "While we applaud Senator Grassley's dedication to tax law oversight, and we can assure you that the Church is willing to comply with a proper request for information, we believe that the IRS, through the framework of [Internal Revenue Code] section 7611, is the appropriate governmental body to review these sensitive matters. Therefore, we respectfully request that Senator Grassley, or the full Senate Finance Committee, refer any information regarding federal tax compliance concerns to the IRS for the agency to evaluate."
