He does have a strange way of looking at some scriptures, but from what I've heard, he's not all about everyone being rich.

While I agree that Jesus did have a lot of money given to him, he clearly GAVE IT ALL AWAY. He made it clear that when they went to minister, they were to take nothing with them. And he later asked them, "did you have any need?" and they answered, "no." <br/><br/>that's a different kind of rich and most Americans can't even begin to grasp it.<br/><br/>peace. to be honest, I’ve heard Creflo say some decent things now and again.

that’s a different kind of rich and most Americans can’t even begin to grasp it.

peace.
