Some enjoy watching it.

I think he is a super salesman. He knows he is good at it and so he is back at it.

It is all he knows how to do.

And think about the absolutely NO coverage by the liberal media of Biden telling someone that he was full of s____. If Trump had done that it'd still be on the news talking about how horrible he is.

Televangelist Jim Bakker said he's been cut off by credit card companies after he was accused of selling a fake coronavirus cure and asked viewers to send cash or checks or he may have to file for bankruptcy.

"You can't use credit cards if you do give to our ministry at this time because there's a situation," Bakker said on his show this week. He told viewers that the government said, "'You sold products that we didn't approve of,' but that's not what we did."

Now, Bakker and his wife and co-host Lori Bakker say their ministry, based outside Branson, Missouri, could face bankruptcy. "SOS, save our station, save our ship, help us stay on the air," he said this week. "We're asking people to give an offering, and we need a miracle."

Exactly TT.

Also though, doesn't wise stewardship of one's finances include having money tucked away for a rainy day? So many businesses seem to have nothing behind them. Relying on next month's income to pay off this month's debts seems an unwise practise.

No offense brother but Our churches would be in a heap of trouble if we abided by this principal.

Not only our churches but the big-time preachers with their jets, etc.

But it may sort out the churches relying on the Holy Spirit and those run in the flesh

BTW I do believe we are to give to support ministries - it's that over the decades I have seen many churches and ministries operate alot in the flesh and the leaders still expect believers to give and support every fleshly decision they make

God still expects his children to be discerning and not blindly support every scheme not matter how famous the minster is
