There is little doubt about the message Mr. Dollar preaches, 'Prosperity.' He teaches giving to his ministry and you will be rich with money {1 Timothy 6:9-10}.

He implies God owes it to you because you serve Jesus. It is sad day when you have to tell people they'll be rich with things if they serve Christ and give money to this church {Luke 12:13-21}.

Spiritual discernment is lacking in this country, all because Christians don't read God's Word {2 Timothy 3:16-17} and pray very little, this prosperity message caters to the carnal {Romans 8:5-10}.

Making prosperity a doctrine, just to fulfill your carnal lust won't fit with the Gospel of Christ, and by the way Christ was not physically wealthy.

He had to send a disciple fishing to pay his taxes, and He was loaned a donkey to make a short trip.

Also in many cases He prayed to the Father for items of need, wine at the wedding feast and food to feed the 5000+ people, He was the Healer he preformed operations on those in need.

Judas was the treasurer, but we don't know if the passover was catered, all we know is that there was a house provided.

In 1 Timothy 6:17-19, there is scripture concerning the rich in this world, but there is a warning; not high-minded nor trust in riches, trust in God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; If a doctrine can be built on this I guess a man can do it.

Christian people in Africa are hearing this prosperity preaching also, however it seems the preacher is the one getting physically wealthy. I was told this from a close missionary friend of mine that recently spent one month in Africa this year.

Mr. Dollar says that Jesus will come in 2012, so you need to get your wealth transfer now. We need to be looking for that catching away NOW, if your not looking for Him we might get bypassed.

The riches of the Christ of God: love, mercy, grace, salvation, redemption, forgiveness, healing, filled with the Holy Spirit, eternal life.

You may think of other riches, but just think, not one of these came from this world. You won't take NOTHING with you when you leave this world so why get caught up in it now?
