She's always soliciting money ...a millionaire asking for more money from her followers who are barely making it paycheck to paycheck. And she solicits money for billionaire Trump from low income people who are hoping that if they give, God will send then 100 fold more ... and it never happens.
This is what I wrote to some family members recently.

I've never felt right about the big money preachers who have so much wealth and hoard it to themselves, preaching about sowing to congregants and followers who live in poverty, barely making ends meet. That is 100% against scripture. These people should be distributing that wealth to meet the lack. If they have poverty in their congregation, they're not following the Word. Faith without works is dead. I'll show you what I mean.
1 John 3:16-18
16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
James 2:14-18
14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?
17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
I'm really put off by men whose sermons center around sowing and buying God's favor and blessing while they have 20 cars, 5 boats, 3 yachts, 3 jet planes, 5 vacation homes, gold and diamonds on every finger, $5,000 suits/dresses, plastic surgeries, botox, so much make-up you can't see what they look like ...all of that is excess, and it's SIN.
They should be selling all that excess and distributing that wealth to the needy who are within their congregations. And when there is no more poverty within their congregation and community, they should be reaching out to their online following to meet their needs. Just preach the Word without embellishment. God will take care of the finances. People are giving with hopes to receive and the only one receiving is the charlatan in the pulpit.
They make excuses for all those jets saying they need to go here and there to preach ...when there's need, poverty, hurting people right in their own communities and states. They don't need to go when the need is in their backyards.
Can you imagine all that wealth going toward meeting real needs ...paying off mortgages, cars, teaching people to manage their finances, fixing roofs, home repairs, clothing, food .... medical bills, electricity bills .... etc.
Mowing yards for the elderly, ministering to single moms, repairing fences, building fences.... goodness...so much could be done to ease burdens locally.
That's my rant.
