(22,459 posts)Pastor Paula White who is trump's spiritual advisor
Pastor White is a Florida televangelist who is controversial in evangelical circles for her promotion of prosperity gospel, which states that true believers will be blessed not just with eternal salvation but also with health and wealth on Earth. She is also the pastor of a church in Apopka, Fla
Prosperity gospel is a theological world that has seen some abuse from the misuse of financial donations given to speed the arrival of Gods blessings. The fund-raising practices of Ms. White and other televangelists were investigated by the Senate Finance Committee in 2007, but no wrongdoing was found.
On her website, Pastor White sells a range of spiritual self-help products like books and DVDs and also exhorts followers to make a first fruits donation to her ministry, a gift she says is mandated by God.
Your sacrificial offering will be a seed for blessings for the remainder of the year, Pastor White wrote. According to Ezekiel 44, when you present your First Fruits offering, it will cause a blessing to rest upon your house!
