When pastors promise what they can’t deliver

This promotion from Rod Parsley is just another reminder of how bad hermenuetics and bad theology leads to bad practice. At what point are the people in these prosperity churches going to finally say, “The only one it’s working for is the guy we’re giving all our money to!”?

Also, instead of “sow your seed,” I wish these guys would just say, “Gimme your money!”
