MILLIONAIRE PREACHERS? by steve finnell

It is not uncommon for today's teachers and preacher to become multimillionaires. Does that raise a red flag?

How many millions did the apostle Paul receive from the 13 letters (books) he wrote in the New testament? He received, not one penny. He made tents, (Acts 18-1-3....3So, because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and worked; for by occupation the were tentmakers.) NKJV

How many personal jets did the apostle Paul have? That would zero. How many million dollar estates did Paul own? That is correct, none.

How much money did Paul receive for baptizing babies or teaching a class on infant baptism? Not one dime, because he did not baptize infants.

Yes, it is Scripturally correct to make a living preaching the gospel. (1 Corinthians 9:14 Even so the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should live from the gospel.) NKJV)

SOMETHING TO CONSIDER

1 Timothy 3:2-3 A bishop....3 not greedy for money....(NKJV)

1 Timothy 6:9-10 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many into foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition...........10 (NKJV)

I cannot name one multimillionaire preacher who preaches the same gospel as Paul and the rest of the apostles. If you are honest, neither can you.
