Reach a lost and dying world for the Lord Jesus Christ..

...in a $60 million dollar jet for Mr Dollar.

Pastor forced to pull webpage pleading for churchgoers to donate to his $65MILLION private jet fund amid widespread outrage. This must be the epitome of a disgusting Christian, or maybe there are worse offenders.

The minister, known for being a prosperity preacher at his Atlanta-area World Changers Church International, is seeking "200,000 people committed to sow $300 or more (to) help achieve our goal to purchase the G650 airplane."

The request goes on to detail that the luxury jet will transport Pastors Creflo and Taffi Dollar and member of the Dollars' church around the globe to help them spread the gospel.

In soliciting the donations, Dollar's site states, "We need your help to continue reaching a lost and dying world for the Lord Jesus Christ. Your love gift of any amount will be greatly appreciated."

...The website pledge continued: 'Believe it or not, there are still millions of people on this planet who have never heard of Jesus Christ and know nothing of His greatness.'

'Our hearts desire to see precious lives changed and snatched out of darkness and thrust into His marvelous light!

I was thinking we could organize a collection in AF.org and send it as a combined 'love gift'?

What do you expect from a guy named Mr. Dollar? I know that he's not the only person to scam his followers, as it could be argued that all religion is a scam, but this guy genuinely thought his request would go over well with his congregation? I know he must be quite the spiritual leader, because his connection to reality is tenuous at best.

Jesus was against the wealthy. It doesn't get more anti wealth when you have a story about a guy being sent to hell because he had a good life in this world.

Also it's not millions of people. It's billions. As in, there are only around 2.5 billion christians in the world, and half of them wouldn't include the other half in the group of true believers. if you're protestant, and you don't think catholics are christians, that puts the population of christians at about 1.2 billion. The road to heaven is indeed narrow, because Yahweh never took any PR classes.

I'm sure Jesus would have been fine with flying coach.

I wonder if Dollar is his birth name, or if this guy just had the balls to change his name to that and be a prosperity preacher.

I was wondering how long it would be before you guys heard about this moron.
We know that sheep are stupid, he is just one of shady leaders in a list of them.
Man, are they going to be surprised shortly.

Some rich guy changing his last name to Dollar and preaching materialism and prosperity is quite possible. He'd have to pick christianity if he's in USA, though he has to ignore all of Jesus' views about wealth. Not that the catholics don't already do that. Those are some mighty fine cathedrals for people who are supposed to live humble nomadic lives.

[Jacob(smooth)]

Yeah, I saw this the other day.
Anywhere but America he'd just get laughed at. Even for American Christianity this might be a touch too brazen.

[Fidel_Castronaut]

What's the bet he'll get it though? Considering the propensity for people to be fooled by this kind of thing, I'd have thought the odds were in his favor.

Tact is not his strongest suit. You don't start fleecing your flock by waving the sheers in their faces first.
