The Dark World of Megachurches
Vložit

- Megachurches, Televangelists, and the Prosperity Gospel... those were things that I had never heard of before... until I stumbled across an infamous interview with Kenneth Copeland by Lisa Guerrero from Inside Edition.
What ensued after was a dive into rabbit hole unlike any other, from corrupt preachers, to lavish lifestyles, to claims of miracle healings, to cult-ish followings, and New Age/New Thought concepts. This... is the dark world of Megachurches.

Awesome to see you back at it! I have a question, what mic are you using for your audio? I think the kit you linked in the description is outdated, as i have seen you with other mics.
The whole world was waiting for the video
I went though this stuff years ago. Finding out about the con was actually a blessing because it was the start of uncovering the lies of religion in general.
Correction: Copeland's worth 1 billion. Biggest charlatan is TB Joshua in Africa.
No human I've ever seen has looked more demonic than Copeland when he smiles.
money won't make you rich. Education, discpline and hard work is the only thing that creates wealth.
My thoughts exactly
Did you see the interview he had with the inside addition reporter? He got a look on his face that was downright scary.

My grandma has a long history with these megachurches/cults. My grandfather was killed by a cult leader in Texas for trying to leave. My grandma tithed. So much she was left with nothing by the time she got to her death bed. She gave everything & returned had nothing.
Soooo sorry! 😢
Yeah it’s sad how many people don’t actually read the Bible it literally warns of people like this wolfs in sheep’s clothing
I'm sorry for your loss. That is unbelievably cruel and demonic.
For that scam pritches tell them for who vote
"God IS the gateway to wealth" for the false prophets preaching the gospel of prosperity to the American suckers too indolent, greedy and wicked to use scriptural principles and God's personal influence through the Holy Spirit in their own personal lives!
Gloria Copeland was preaching and telling the congregation about Kenneth taking control of a tornado and it disappeared something of that nature and then in her next breath said, they couldn't fly out that night because the weather was too bad! They tell on themselves! I pray they will turn from these lies before it's too late! 🙏
After shaming and conning his members to give their money towards purchasing the Gulfstream jet, Copeland "thanked" his deluded church members by doing a flyby over them outside his personal airport as if to say "In your face, you suckers!" I'm 63. When I was growing up our pastors were the least wealthy of the church population.
You "pray" for it? Well that's what they do too so it's the same scam.
How the hell does a religious person look at Kenneth Copeland and not think, "That's definitely what a demon looks like"? lmao
I agree coz jeeeez he demonic
You can feel the evil of his gaze in that first clip.
Exactly. Right out of Central Casting. The pointed teeth are a nice touch.

Quran
Al-Baqarah 2,79 So woe1 to those who distort the Scripture with their own hands then say, “This is from Allah”-seeking a fleeting gain! So woe to them for what their hands have written, and woe to them for what they have earned.
This verse is talking about how one lives their life. If you are dishonest and steal from others you'll end up spiritually dead and imprisoned, but if you live a life of integrity and seek to help and serve others you will be blessed by God for your good deeds. It does not mean give money to get money!!
I used come from a mega-prosperity gospel church. They taught that if your prayers werent answered, you were not praying hard enough. They even recorded how long we prayed each day.
I left
If biblical Christianity is true, then these people will certainly be held accountable.
I one hundred percent believe they be. Especially because there are many verses in the Kjv bible about false prophets receiving greater damnation for deceiving people.

It isnt but we humans can hold them accountable by the kind of exposure this content creator is advancing.
Biblical Christianity is true (The words that Jesus AS spoke only). The inventions of Paul are not. And the triune interpretation of God and the original sin that emerged later in the 4th centure are not true either.
You find everything explained clear, in the last and final testament: The Holy Qur'an.
If Jesus went to many of these “prosperity churches”…he would do the same thing he did when he went to the temple in his day: FLIP over the tables of money!
Amen! And I love your channel!
I Love your channel too!!
Yes! Apparently, I'm a terrible Christian bc I ask too many questions and point out too many contradictions such as this example
But you are one of them are you not ?
AoC is also a false prophet
I'm a Christian myself and watching this made me remember one of the most chilling things I had ever heard "Demons can quote scripture too" And that's exactly what I see happening here. Thank you for shedding light on this topic, you're the one doing God's work, not these false teachers.
This video is a masterpierce. Well done James
And the fact that even Scripture, even Jesus warns about men like them, false prophets, and people still buy into their lies, is just saddening as a Christian myself
But here's my question 4u, if you've seen this type of behavior and disingenuous acts 4 such a long time, why do u continue 2 subscribe 2 this religion? I'm genuinely asking, not being sarcastic or anything. If people such as yourself have witnessed such distasteful and immoral practices in Christianity, have u ever stopped 2 research the history and origin of Christianity? Not just a simple wiki look up but an actual indepth research in the Roman Catholic Church, Christianity and the truth about the Greeks involvement in the creation of Christianity. I'll give u a hint, research the men Arrius Piso, Serapis Christus and Josephus flavius and I think you'll understand why there's so much immoral behavior attached 2 Christianity. Be well
Exactly smh it's so sickening to see
That’s because the vast majority that do, don’t have a personal relationship with God.
These are not the false prophets .. I do know that healing is something that can be lost .. because we get into lack of faith.. that’s the only thing that I will say about Benny .. he needs to spend more time with the scripture and teaching faith and healing instead of just getting people hyped up and not able to keep it up ..
@@HaYahwarrior That's a really good question! For me, I would say it's a case of not throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Many people have definitely twisted the Bible to justify their own horrific ideas, and it makes me really angry that they have done that! As Hans mentioned, in the Bible, we find Jesus frequently opposing the megachurch pastors of his day, the Pharisees. Here's an example (forgive the length of it, I just think it does a great job of showing Jesus' take on things):
As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table. But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.
“Now then,” said the Lord, “you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well? But give as alms the things that are within you, and you will see that everything is clean for you.
Woe to you Pharisees! You pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.
Woe to you Pharisees! You love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces. Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”
One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”
“Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “You weigh men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load."
Imagine getting up in the middle of the night and seeing Copeland smiling on your couch. Like something out of a horror film.

What if I told you this bad catholic church was keeping this bible for centuries and it is very possible they manipulated it and now you basically believe on loads of crap?
@@OPHANIM98 we would say that despite the despicable track record of the Catholic Church and all that it's guilty of, there is simply no evidence of anything resembling widespread manipulation of the Bible.
How do we know that?
Cause we have thousands of whole copies and fragments of Biblical New Testament texts from the ancient world (a fragment is any copy of a work that has not fully survived to the modern day, so that even a 249-page copy of a 255-page book still counts as a fragment). Greek texts alone number more than 5,000 with another almost 10,000 in other languages, from Latin to Syriac and Coptic.
These documents were all written down when the Christian Church was still very decentralised, long before it had anything even remotely resembling any central authority capable of making uniform manipulation of texts across the Roman Empire. Islam had the Rashidun Caliph Uthman, who was able to create a standard Quran to be used throughout the Islamic world, and then burn any copies that did not agree with what his scholars had created. Christianity had no such person(s) or group(s) that could accomplish anything even remotely similar.
Using these original 'pure' copies, we can conclude that the Bible has remained intact, with only about 40 verses in the entire New Testament in question.
For the Old Testament, it's even easier. We have the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Septuagint. These are copies that are even older than the Christian Church. The Dead Sea Scrolls were about as old as Jesus Himself (give or take a few decades) and the earliest version of the Septuagint about 2 centuries older.
The Dead Sea Scrolls contained multiple copies of almost every book of the Old Testament in Hebrew, and had remained undisturbed for almost the entirety of Christian history. The Church cannot manipulate what it doesn't know exists.
The Greek Septuagint is so widespread among Jews and Christians that we have too many copies from the ancient world to have been changed uniformly at any point.

This Copeland is so creepier than a zombie in a horror movie. The way he talked to the lady gave me goosebumps.
He's got demons hanging off of him like bats.
He is filled up with demons!!!
There's something dark about his eyes 🤞🤞🤞
He's used to communicating with a large audience where exaggeration of facial expressions is effective. He hasn't learned to tone that down for person to person settings. He's also totally out of touch with reality. Like many false teachers I'm sure he started well, then got lost along the way when money, power and influence clouded his judgment.
he looks no less than a demon himself.!!!! you took the words right outta my mouth
One of the churches I grew up in was a small little church in Virginia. I remember when they finally said they had to build a new space and upgrade because the congregation and youth ministry had gotten too large.
The preacher even said "we will only build the new building with donations. If it takes us a decade, it takes us a decade" --> and sure enough, the pastor was extremely transparent and it took forever to build that new church.
"The contractors asked if I wanted stained glass, chandeliers, all these frills... I said I just want comfortable chairs" he'd give little updates like that!
He owned a little house out in the country, drove an old car, wore an old suit... a breath of fresh air in a religion that is more and more being consumed by rampant wealth/corruption and hate.
My grandpa was the same way. I’m disgusted at the pastors who take donations and use them for themselves
Sigh... if only everyone was as not blatantly evil as him...
Sounds like a church I know of in Mclean Virginia. Not a sermon just a thought. Iykyk
when you say transparent, do you mean transparent as in the bad way or good way?

Thank you for this great, respectful work. So grateful to be in a church run by a truly godly pastor! The American Church has been so infested with corruption and politics that it's truly frightening.

As a christian myself it really saddens me to see how many of my siblings in Christ have been led astray. Jesus taught us about love and compassion and how money corrupts. This is not the way.
The entire world revolves around the false idol of the dollar.
There’s almost nothing in the prosperity teachings about giving to others, being part of your community, loving others such as neighbours and strangers.
I don’t mind some of the prosperity teachings but seeing the way these preachers live while others in their own community go hungry is absolutely shameful.

Yeah it's the literal opposite of Christianity. It does say in the Bible that this would happen. False teachers, people walking after there own lusts and all that.
This is where I draw the line actually. Because many times, it's like, Jesus Himself has lost. I'm really sad, but even I couldn't bargain for the reality like Jesus had said, a healthy community of Christian.

How can anyone look into the eyes of kenneth Copeland and not see the evil, almost non human being peering from behind them is just unbelievable to me. How can anyone look at this man and not have instant warning bells go off in their psyche
Yeah there serpent like, forgive me Lord for saying it.
I agreed, he looks so scary
Totally agree. It’s complete evil in his eyes.
Exactly what I was thinking. Kenneth Copeland has no conscience and no shame. When I see preachers like him and Benny Hinn, 2 Peter 2:1 comes to mind - "In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping." They have all the time in hell to think about all the people they fooled."
He scares me. Wonder what it is like for his wife at home.

Why exposed his a smart peapol who take money from desperat stupid peapol 😂😂😂
He hasn't researched each pastor, he is just pooling them all together, please.....
@@rawendrealitylol what?
I cam up with this brilliant idea its : a village for jesus Christ a place far from any city where we leave of grid like no outside help we get few acres of land where we leave totally free from sin no greed money is not allowed because everything's is free we share and no lust before marriage . we grow are own food and got a farm for the cow and chicken too provide are milk and eggs we install solar panels on the roof of the houses so we dont need go to work because the main things are provided and the other things are not important materialistic things dont give long term happiness but leaving GOD'S footsteps will provide you long lasting happiness.
This life we leaving at this moment is pure slavery with out us knowing + we leaving in a dark time sin is all around the world trying to pull us in this demonic life and sadly for most of the population it worked but im here to let you guys know that the truth to happiness is by repent to God ask for forgiveness and and avoid sin. And no it's not by just saying sorry and your saved it's by your actions after you repent to avoid doing sin's so by doing the 2 main things you will see a big improvements in your life you be feeling happy.
It's not every body in the church's that be intrested in doing this because they still want to continue too indulge in there sin live and the sad part they belive there saved but there really not like I said before it's not by just repenting to God that the individual will be saved is by the action you do after that will determine your fath.
So much people belive that when you just repent to God then your saved then there back on there sin's. that's what sad
This doesn't change much, the sheep will continue to give them money.
Good work, carry on!
My dude, fantastic video.
As a Christian, I’ve always avoided this. My family purposely went to smaller family churches against the mega churches in my area because we felt that it was easier to connect to people who were literally in our tax bracket.
Our pastor made less than us and it was nice to see someone walk the walk. This is disgusting
These mega churches also preach false doctrines. Glad your staying away from these
A mega church is ok if it is actually based on biblical teaching unlike these churches
I was raised thinking that there were a lot of occupations a person could have but a pastor was one of the lowest earning ones. It’s a nice thought to think that they believe in what they’re saying so much that they would give up the potential to live a luxurious life.
I'm sorry but your statement that your pastor being in a lower tax bracket is extremely wrong. I'm sorry just cause you were called by God to preach his word means that you must live a life a poverty. Now I will say my father is a pastor. He has been a pastor my whole life. Now does that mean that my family has to grow up poor because my father job. My family did happen to be poor and it was extremely difficult on my family. My father would work also close to 60 hours a week. Has to sacrifice his time and his family time to be there for the people to learn about Jesus and help people. Listen I'm honestly sorry that your pastor is forced to be in a lower tax bracket. I would question your church make sure they take care of him and I don't know what your job is. However if you don't have a really great job I would ask to see how much work your pastor actually has to do. You would be surprised. I would just question yourself about why you believe that your pastor should be in poverty. Now I'm not saying that pastors need to be rich like these guys. These guys are scammers using Gods name to make money and they will have to face God one day and tell him why they did this. However I'm asking you to question your reasoning on why pastor need to live in poverty because that like saying Doctor should live in poverty cause getting money to help someone is wrong
@@jonjackson7979 my father makes 195,000 dollars a year and my mom makes 60,000. Im not saying poor just saying REASONABLE. As long as you’re not ripping someone off or making well over 500 grand is fine. A normal respectable living is fine. My grandfather was a pastor for 55 years before dying. He had a reasonable income. That’s all I’m saying. Never mentioned a low bracket just a bracket equal to ORRR lower since my dad makes a very reasonable amount.
My brother was mentally handicapped. We went to one of those healing services and right in the middle he jumped up and wanted to be healed. He came on the stage and the preacher touched his head and he fell back like everyone else. He wasn't screened and he wasn't faking it. Of course, he wasn't healed either.
I really hope your brother is doing well. God bless.
I was raised under christianity and I'm lucky my family wasn't on the extreme side because I'm flooded with problems such as autism, ADHD, seizures as I would learn later in life, hypoglycemia, chronic allergies and a missing testicle which I don't know if it's undescended or if it simply never developed. I also learned that I was bisexual as a teen which doesn't play out well with extreme evangelicals

It doesn't matter if he feels guilty or shame or sad or happy. The truth sets him and his family free. Truth doesn't tend to feelings. So what if a gay person gets hurt if they know God hates their sexually immoral activity? So what if a person gets hurt if they find out that their Buddhism/hinduism was actually a form of devil worship? They now are aware of their evil works, which they used to be tricked into thinking was good.
It has all been about getting money I knew of elderly people that got robbed of there little income the kids had to step in and stop them

Dude, your content is on point! & SUPER entertaining!
I've watched your NFT's vid & this "Prosperity Preachers" vid, & they both are AMAZING!!!
Only issue is, if you could cut down on the ad breaks... Maybe just one every 8min instead of every 4?
I understand, You Tube channels gonna You Tube... But dang man...
I went to a megachurch. We were young newlyweds and we didn't have much money. We had a new baby. The church wanted to build a newer, bigger sanctuary, but they wanted to pay cash. We were exhorted to tithe our gross income (so that God would give us a gross blessing), PLUS give offerings. We gave, and it was difficult. When the sanctuary was done, I was glad we could keep our money now. But then the pastor said, "Now that you know you are capable of giving, you need to keep giving at that amount". And you can be sure: the pastor and the staff all had nice homes, nice cars, nice suits, and nice things. But we felt guilty and materialistic if we spent our money on anything even halfway nice for ourselves. We were doing all our shopping at thrift stores and discount groceries. That was a long time ago. We don't to go church anymore, and our policy is not to give money to people who have MORE than us. We give our money to people who help widows and orphans in 3rd world countries. They truly do need it, and appreciate it.
I am glad you learnt the lesson! These megachurches getting money from the normal/poor people is just insane. Sadly it's also working because a lack of intellect.
My wives and I are attending some mega churches and fundamental evangelicals , but we are not giving any money to that organization, because we give directly to our poor neighbors as our brother Jesus had modeled .
We listen mainly as to experience how greedy men turn a tribal propaganda fiction book into a mind control way to suck other people's money while avoiding income taxes.
We are Deists in sheeps clothing and we enjoy to watch those shit heads do their scams , they are all the same, prosperity churches and evangelicals and other "churches of god" diferrent faces of the same fake coin
@@bookofbrahI wholeheartedly believe your conclusion: lack of intellect. The more I study the word of God and the more I have experiences with him the more I realize there is deception in the American church especially in the area of finances.
I would go further; stop giving anything altogether, unless, you know someone in need personally. There are many scums regarding anything '3rd world countries' and very likely your money is continuing lining up pockets of some crafty devils.
People fail you, Jesus won't. Please consider giving him another chance...

How are these mega churches any different than "normal' churches? followers in both cases are still expected to path tithes to an institution preaching about an unproven dogma. Kenneth Copeland is lying to you and expecting tithes just as much as pope Francis, I see very few differences in their morality. Just seems like more Christians pushing the "us and them" agenda within the denominations of the religion.
What a bunch of scammers. But… if they are making money, it is because there are suckers paying them.
I hate the idea of a woman dying of cancer that instead of spending the money on herself or giving it to her family, donated all her money to the church as seed money. There are so many good people that are taken advantage of IMO.
Because it’s a test of loyalty to YAH. Trust YAH and not money and not men who don’t have the power of YAH pretending to. Not everyone will be healed because it’s only for some for the purpose of YAH getting the glory. It says He shares His glory with no one else. Yes, we can have glory, but it has to be given back. Deep concept to ponder on.

Great video and reminding me of a story I got from a little community down the street from here. I live in Bisbee Arizona about 15 miles south from here is a little place called Miracle Valley. THE COMMUNITY WAS BUILT BY A WHOLE BUNCH OF folks out here in the community following the preacher Man by the name of Alan last name first name I can't quite remember. This probably started late 70s and went on through the 80s. He had crazy videos on you may find on CZcams still. That preacher Man says he could bring people back from the dead. I'm not sure the time period again but that was when you could ship bodies through the mail, and that's what people were doing. He made a lot and lots of Bank on this and built quite a unique community down there and he made a lot and lots of Bank on this and built quite a unique community down there and there in Miracle Valley😂 play dilapidated and sitting like an old mosque in the desert. The postal service eventually had to tell the people that they can no longer ship dead bodies out to Southern Arizona to be healed.....
To me the greatest evil one can do is take advantage of the already vulnerable.
Anyone who doesn't possess wisdom is vulnerable to being led astray.
the greatest evil is fucking animals I have never have i ever want to play?
And to use god to scam believers and hurt people... I wouldn't be surprised if god gets rid of us... he made us, gave us the chance…sent us his son who died in our name…and we use his sacrifice to scam people? it would be reasonable for god to get rid of us all or gives up on us... he gave us rules that make us be decent humans... gave us choice to sin or not...and It's pretty clear... devil has been roaming the earth for a long time...in shape of humans
They are vulnerable because they are seeking God for wealth rather than who He is...they are seeking teachings tickling to their ears, what they'd love to hear...this is judgement they have brought upon themselves...
Money is your defense 😅
Monetizing God for personal gain has to be one of the vilest things a "preacher" can do.
It breaks my heart knowing that so many have financed lavish lifestyles of these snake-oil-salesmen-esque individuals, yet live a humble life free of millionaire trappings.
Wonderful video, James. You've got yourself a new subscriber.
So sad that almost all 'churches' of any religion do, Christian's and non-Christians alike especially pastors/ministers with families. Saving one's self I guess.
kinda ironic considering how much jesus lashed out when he saw people monetizing god in the temple
When Christ appeared to me, he told me I was never to take donations for his end time message.

$20,000.00.....That's quite a huge honorarium for speaking at a church. I can see $2,000.00 but never $20,000.
Dodged a bullet, honestly.

JAMES ! YOUR TALKING IS THE TRUTH.
As a Christian myself, the prosperity gospel is definitely a problematic one. As Christians, we called, not to have riches on earth, but heavenly riches instead. We are called to help others, not profit off of them.
“problematic” Are you in the running to win euphemism of the year ?
I'm an atheist but doesn't the Bible say to store up treasures in heaven and not on earth? If I remember correctly, Jesus said it's very hard for rich people to enter heaven. It makes sense though, if you're rich it's pretty clear where your priorities are.
@@wakeupthisisntreal8168 You remember correctly. There's nothing wrong with being materially rich per se, but wealth can be seductive and can become an idol, especially with all the luxury, comfort, and power it could bring. Another Bible verse clarifies it: "For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows." (1 Tim 6.10). This verse is often misquoted as "money is the root of all evil".
@@wakeupthisisntreal8168 but as a christain I should remain poor and hungry so the angels will bring me food right, so because I'm Christian there's a problem with me driving a rolls Royce and having a jet common lets all get logical here if satan can give his children good things how much more the creator himself, yes there might be imbalabces but then what we don't know we shouldn't talk about.................................. there is nothing wrong with a rich person zaccheus in the bible was rich he gave half of his wealth to the poor and kept half.......... the parable you spoke about where Jesus said it would be hard for the rich to enter the kingdom of heaven was because he told a scribe to give all he has to the poor...... Jesus made that statement because his wealth is practically his God and Jesus saw right through his heart...... but zaccheus; Jesus never asked him to do any of that he did what he did willingly in other words Jesus needs our heart its funny every other persons in the world can be rich but not Christians come one because we are none humans or what.........
Maybe the problem is with the bible being a corrupt book?!!
When I was younger and still went to Church with my dad there was this priest that was always nice and asked everyone how were things going and, at the end, a bunch of kids and teens would swarm him, some knew him for a long time and helped him manage things. He even helped my dad when he was sick by bringing him food and goods. That's a real priest, one that does those things without wanting money in return. He's the only priest I've ever liked, very nice guy. Can't forget the soccer matches behind the building.
Too few and far in between the true shepherd
this is why the catholic church and its priests are the one true church. yes, there are some good and some bad priests, but most want to lead you to heaven and will do anything to get you there
These people are true followers of God's work to help others like a team work in a town.
There are many devil priests that do want money and wealth for themselves and charge for God's work lol.
The evil is everywhere nowadays in America and many other countries, yet many that do believe are guided by his voice to live a good, healthy life
Small town and big city people need to wake up from brainwashed life, avoid what's on television.
@@nickobryant01 as a rule of thumb, those who preach a modest life and emulate it are the ones to follow
The opposite are the ones to avoid, regardless of religion
Charlatans i tell you
@@nickobryant01 In all my life, there has been no institution as apostate and corrupt as the Catholic church. Putting the pope as "head of the church" undermines the purpose of Christ and His work. No fallible man can speak for Christ but Christ alone. Praising and praying to the saints and angels is a blatant disrespect to God, who demands all glory. The invention of purgatory, apart from not once being mentioned in scripture, undermines the entire purpose of the consequences of sin, and when you remove purgatory from the equation, Catholicism immediately becomes a very hard sell, because Catholicism is presupposed on faith by works, which no matter how much you try to stack up, no good work or ritual or infant baptism or false forgiveness by confessions to priests can earn your way into Heaven as you will always be deemed lacking; the long short is there will never be assurance of salvation by Catholic standards. The Catholics themselves knew this, and is why they had their dissenters exiled and killed. So no, they are not, and never will be the one true church.
I'm not a christian, but seeing this is kinda sad.
I know a pastor who had to work 2 jobs for supporting his family and there are pastors who had millions and collecting private jets

What harms a lot of people with these churches is that they fail to go for medical treatment. I can’t tell you what damage this has caused in my wider family in Nigeria.
I'm telling you. I can't imagine how many people go to church rather than hospitals. Blind faith is a huge enemy in Nigeria
@@InstanLondo7253 What an ignorant take. You don't know how many cases i have seen healed in the church after being 'treated' in the hospital with no relief. Don't talk about stuff you don't know.
@@joykenn9772 I get if you go as a last act but I'm Nigerian, bruh. I've seen people skip hospitals altogether and run to church camps for 'healing'. This is a country where people pray on burning buildings and damaged transformers and you have people putting stickers of pastors on their cars for protection while those same pastors go around in convoys 😂😂. I literally said above that some people would rather go to a camp than visit a hospital.
A lot of homes in Nigeria are victims.
Will make a video on this topic soon and it will be brutal
Yep. My granpda was super religious, and we used to go to church with him as kids. Some mega church in Illinois called life changers, (pretty sure joel olsten preached there). Well he ended up getting really sick, and all but refused/avoided seeing doctors saying "God will heal me". Well that didnt happen, he died shortly after from several cancers he didnt know about. We tried telling him that God gives you skilled, knowledgeable doctors, who are there to heal you etc.. But that only works if you actually let them help🤦♂️

My mother took me to a church when I was 14 because I was struggling with severe SI. After the service, she took me down where I kneeled and had the preacher and several other people sit around me with their hands on my head, shoulders and chest. They began speaking in tongues and then after the preacher hit my forehead so hard that I fell back. Everyone began cheering and hugging me. But all he did was hit me when I wasn't expecting it. I was sick thinking that these people genuinely believed that he had done anything.
It’s a complete joke, I honestly feel sorry for your parents.
@@h2rv my dads an atheist and i believed my mom has stepped away from that scene. she’s still very spiritual but from what i see, she doesn’t partake in all of that.
but i agree. i genuinely feel bad for people who believe in it. or those who actively pay into those churches thinking it’s for a good cause.
What is the abbreviation SI ? Seriously its Criminal all most for him to hit your head against your will. did that leave a mark on your mother? i would have been traumatized with all this nonsense added abuse. a criminal effence and he probably knows it but can get away with it because of Manipulating People in to his evilness.
@@trafficjon400 SI means suicidal ideation. i do think that was one of her last visits to that church. after months of seeing ‘healing’ and then witnessing first hand that it did not work. they had me sit on my knees so when he hit my head i fell. they all rejoiced and she started to cry thinking that the ‘holy spirit’ went through me. i laughed about it later that day and explained what happened from my pov and she seemed so disappointed and sad about it.

Great Cideo!
There was a clip of a pastor saying that if you didn't tithe, you might as well be a thief. And said that "he (the one who didn't tithe) might as well stick his hand on your pocket and take your money".
This would've been a great clip to include in this. It just goes to show how much they worship the mighty dollar instead of the mighty God.
I remember growing up - I genuinely looked up to Joel Osteen.. I wrote him a letter. What I got back was the typical mock-up and a send a donation request. At the age of 9 I knew these people were charlatans.
I hope you didn't send anything he is s phony just like the other TV preachers
Richard Roy you were truly saved from these arsewipes.
I walked up to that church to as a twenty something in the late 80's after I had been part of the church and I was treated like a bum. The Lord has really revealed who these people are the last couple years.
he is one of the worse,he lives in a 23 million dollar mansion,what did he say to the rich kid in the bible,sell all you have and give it to the poor,think JOEL WILL DO THAT,NO WAY,he is his own god,ask him,he's a feel good man
RIGHT ON & WORSE BECAUSE YOU DON'T MESS WITH GOD.
Christian or not, you can see how much of a problem this has become. Being a Christian involves suffering, not being poor, but definitely not what these preachers are saying. And it’s infecting the minds of the people who watch, really sad to see
Indeed
Christianity is about love and faith and the freewill we have
"Being a Christian is suffering", fixed it for you.
My wife's aunt had a "weak moment" and called Peter Poppers church in Florida. They sent her a cut from Jesus's robe and and a vile of holy water. She did not send them any money and they sent her a letter asking for them back.
Please be careful what you share. To say that being a Christian "is about suffering" sends a dangerously deceptive message to potential seekers and is completely Biblically wrong. "By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another" (John 13:35 ESV), "For God so loved the world that He gave...", etc. show that it's about LOVE not suffering! (And yes I HATE the prosperity perversion -- definitely won't call it a gospel -- as much as anyone)

I grew up as a child of pastors who preached the prosperity gospel. During 2008 my oldest brother sold drugs because he never wanted to be poor again and because as an atheist he would have not been able to be blessed by giving to the church. I struggled with endometriosis and never felt better through prayer. All pastors i know personally, through my parents, have terrible relationships with their children. They act as if they are superior and that if their children don’t work in the ministry these children are disappointments or even demon possessed. Most of these pastors are also abusive to their children. Child protective services showed up at my house at least 1 to 4 times a year till I was 18. If you wanna be a good Christian donate into your community and not into the hands of abusive money hungry men.

These mega churches are an embarrassment . How can the leaders sleep at night . All they r doing is building their own empire and we know that’s not what Jesus would do . He would overturn their money tables in church
Then ask your leader if fertilization or birth is your origin. If it's the former then you don't need a savior. Luke5:31
@@Nancie6290I suspect many of these leaders are not even faintly religious. They're operating a business and it's a lucrative one. When you think about it, if you had no religious belief and a sense of disdain towards people who you feel are daft enough to believe it, entering this sort of business would be a great idea. They don't even have to pay taxes!! Genius.
I do believe these people know what they're doing. Extreme levels of narcissism, an ego unrivaled. Its the same thing as self help gurus and cults. They've seen that they can manipulate certain people through the guise of religion.
I feel that some (not all) of these people are so deep in their own bullshit that they believe it themselves. People distance themselves from their own wrong doings all the time, explain it away. Most cult leaders didn't just serve this shit up to there disciples / congregation / whatever you want to call them. They sat at the table and ate it up with everyone else. It doesn't make it okay, in fact i think it makes it worse. A lie is more convincing when it comes from someone who believes it to be true.
As a christian I will say the mega church as ruined what church is supposed to be, greedy people who only care about money who disguise themselves as pastors is really sad to see and I pray that they will all see that what they are supporting is wrong and that the church will be what it was always supposed to be, a place of love and not a place of greed and false preachers.

Amen to that
As someone who was heavily involved in the worship music industry for most of my life, it's not that these churches are creating a bad image. This IS the entire image of Christianity. These mega pastors may be going farther than others, but the entire religion is built upon removing your sense of self worth. It's incredibly manipulative.
According to Islamic teaching one has to give 2.5% of his or her excess wealth each year to needy... Six types of people are not entitled like, father, grandfather, son, daughter, mother, and the last category is Family of Prophet (these people, one can give gift) .... The most important ones are ones' relatives like brother, sister, uncle, aunts and the community... Then the poor student who study Islamic teaching and mostly cannot earn enough due to studies...Then so on... So the money received by church must be used in helping poor among church members and in community and not to make the priests more wealthy....
