IS THE "WORD OF FAITH" MOVEMENT JUST WESTERNIZED HINDUISM? [4 of 4] Here are a few examples of what Word of Faith preachers are saying that is just Hinduism—and certainly not biblical: Jesse Duplantis: "The very first thing on Jesus' agenda was to get rid of poverty.” Excuse me?! Jesus said His priority was to glorify God, destroy the works of the devil, and to save us from sin. Frederick Price: "The apostles were businessmen. They were rich men that had plenty of money… Only rich people could take off for three and a half years… That's the reason why I drive a Rolls Royce. I'm following Jesus’ steps.” But the Bible says, "In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories made up."; Creflo Dollar: "I'm telling you, Jesus wasn't poor, and… Jesus didn't have no rags on. He wore designer clothes, honey!” Robert Tilton: "The only time people were poor in the Bible is when they were under a curse... Being poor is a sin.” But the Bible says this about Jesus giving up everything to come to earth as a poor man: “Though Jesus was rich, yet for your sake he became poor…” Just like the Word of Faith preachers here in West, an Eastern group of religious leaders also live lavish lifestyles. They too teach those who send them money that the donators can also become wealthy if they would only practice the right “force of faith” with their words. That is exactly what Word of Faith preachers and Hindu gurus all claim, and it is how the religious leaders from both camps live.
