Paul's Resume

Summary: If they are rolling in the dough to their church or program do not go.
Paul's resume dispels the whole Prosperity Gospel. When these false apostles and prophets have a resume like Paul's I might want to hear what they have to say as that experience will prove they are wrong.
Apostles and prophets that brag about their wealth and live the life of a rock star have nothing to say to me.
2 Ti 3:10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
These false prophets are deceived and being buried in their own deception that will be revealed at the end. (Matthew 7:21-23)
1Ti 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
You cannot say you don't have a love for money when you say things like if people gave more Christ would come back. They think their riches are blessings of God when indeed, they are being receiving everything satan offered Jesus in the wilderness if He would worship him.
Do not watch or send money to these men and women. Find a good local church where the Lord and the Word are exalted, not money. Support the pastor that will be by your side when you need him. Sow to the poor, not the rich.
Pro 19:17 He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
Do not be deceived! Study the Word and run from these false apostles and prophets. Maranatha!
