This is the time of year where the annual "campmeeting" takes place at Darrow, LA. Basically a week long money raising event concluding with a "founders" evening where last year over $200,000 was raised for Dr Thompson et al. As he sat on his throne, thousands of people would lay their money down before the Dr, large checks from churches such as Light of the World would be received eagerly. All for the man who brought Christianity the money pull. This 4th of July I thank God for true freedom from this mess.
I received this comment and decided to post it as it was buried in the archives.
This is a wonderful testimony of grace, Bill, and coming out from among the wolves. The cultish nature of that group is clearly evident within their doctrines and behaviors, as you have pointed out. However, it is especially noticeable within the comments of some of the remaining cult adherents, who saw fit to make their deceived condition known here on your post.
I have added a link to your testimony to my our own new post, "Leroy's Love for Lucre" on www.KennethCopelandBlog.com on the web. (BTW: I noticed that you linked to our post about Hagin's rebuke of Copeland, Thompson, and others...so thank you for highlighting that fact.) The hyperlinked text toward the end of the post which says, "Thankfully, some people have already realizing that Leroy and his throng of subordinate 'wanna-be-just-like-him' junior cult-leaders are nothing more than covetous wolves" contains the link back to your page. You can find the full post here: http://kennethcopelandblog.com/2011/06/01/leroys-love-of-lucre/
God bless you, Sir. Keep up the great work!

Where do these people and churches come up with this kind of money? It's obviously coming from somewhere. Interesting when the average person is struggling to just pay their bills and survive.
ReplyDeleteThey get it from not paying their own bills and doing without. On my 29th wedding anniversary, we "sowed" $29 bucks into "her anointing", and I skipped taking my wife out to dinner. I've skipped paying my truck payment to "sow into the woman of Gawd". This is how "Money Cometh to Me Now" is making her rich and her church poor! Stop the insanity!
ReplyDeleteWhat you do is strictly your business, of course, but I sure as heck wouldn't skip my truck payment or miss taking my wife out to dinner to sow into this "woman of Gawd's" anointing. A lot of folks have learned over the years of the outrageous demands made by this "good pastor" on one of her many ex-husbands when she divorced him (and yes, God did tell her to do it). She demanded that he provide her with a car to drive, but he was to make the payments for her; she demanded in addition that he pay her alimony each month, and also demanded that he cash in his life insurance policy and give her half. And, I am sure I will now come down with cancer for writing this.
