Joyce Meyer Supporters Can Go to Hell

I don’t mean to curse—I’m not being harsh, it’s just a statement of fact.

The Most Reverend Mrs. Meyer is a great promoter, a charismatic speaker (and, no, I don’t mean she delivers her sermons in tongues), and a multi-millionaire.

After years at a $900,000 personal salary (not including $450K annually to David, Meyer’s stay-at-home cuckolded husband), Meyer has been able to attain a luxurious, self-indulgent lifestyle.*

Just imagine being the butch-voiced harbinger of prosperity theology:

You awake in one of your three mansions—paid for at a cost of over $3 million by your loving supporters. You don the latest in designer clothes and are whisked off to the airport by a ministry provided pink limousine to your awaiting ministry-provided personal jet.

Nothing but the best for the Oprah of Faith.

And, after all, why doesn’t she deserve the money? She’s been telling her supporters for years she was living a lavish lifestyle and they should too.

What she failed to tell them was how THEY could receive the $70 million in annual donations Meyer receives.

Like the classic ponzi scheme, Joyce Meyer advocates giving sacrificially to her “ministry.” Where does the money go? To get on more television stations to make more money to get on more television stations to make more money to get on…you get the picture.

Why give? Simple: “Give my ministry $1,000 and God will bring the Hundredfold Return.” $1,000 becomes a $100,000 check from Almighty God’s banker.

I think his name is Hershel. Of course, he’s Jewish.

Gee, that means each year the $70 million given to the “ministry” must result each year in the production of $7 BILLION in wealth for the givers. Lucky devils. It’s like knowing the lottery numbers in advance.

Sign me up.

So why am I not taking Meyer to task? Why is this article pointed at her supporters?

Simple: You’re the problem.

Supporters of Meyer and her kind (Hinn, Copeland, et. al.) simply exploit the basest of human lusts: Greed.

Why do you give to Meyer? You want to get rich. You want to control God. You want to BE Joyce Meyer. Instead of feeling nausea when she claims “The Holy Spirit’s gonna preach today” followed by her pabulum drivel, you’re excited.

How will she help me manipulate God today?

And when she tells you to reach for your pocket book, you do so willingly. You are a willing participant in propagating her malicious gospel of hedonism.

Without financing, she has no Brenda-Vaccaro-ish voice.

But you are not alone in propagating her filth. Radio stations, television stations and bookstores are to blame as well.

Give time and space to Meyer and you are doing more than just making money—you are promoting deception in God’s Kingdom.

So you can go to hell, too.

The other day I was walking through Wal-Mart’s book isle (not sure why we need Wal-Mart to sell books, but interestingly enough they do.) There, on the shelf, was a book entitled “Things that Steal Your Joy.” On the cover was a huge head-shot of Joyce Meyer.

My only thought was, “How could they know?”

Hi
I just read your comment on Joyce Meyer. I have one question. Even if she may be a fake or even not Christian did it ever occur to you that the fact that millions of people get to meet God through her and grow in knowing God means more to Him [God]than your opinion of her? Why dont you use the Blog to spread God's true message instead of bad mouthing individuals that refuse to let the world die without knowing about God? I say this with love.
Be blessed

She is being used to save souls. The millions she has? Well she writes the books doesnt she...I am sure that she does not pocket donations. Why worry about her though? If anyone is knowingly deceiving others especially in ministry THEY HAVE GOD to answer to. So relax brother & cut the badmouthing & tabloid gossip style writing. & go win souls for Jesus.

This Blog is a sad commentary on how people try to bash others.

I AGREE with the previous posters in that many people meet or find God through her efforts.

I myself have begun to really get a hold on who God is after spending most of my life knowing of him and Jesus.

Through Joyce Meyer's efforts and the way she expresses what the faith is made me see that while I "thought" I was ok that I needed to do it another way.

Its nobody's business on how someone lives their lives. I'm sure that Joyce has her faults too (which she freely admits). I see that she has a lot of good points too and one of them was getting a bull headed IDIOT like me to PAY attention!

This world is already too full of terrible news and events, why not use this Blog to spread a little POSITIVE light. Something that will make all of us reflect on what is really important in our time here.

I hold no ill will to this Blogs author, and I hope that they will experience the beginnings of peace and joy that I have by looking to God instead of Joyce.

PEACE

ok, i actually have watched joyce meyer for years, and I have personally never seen one of her supposed teachings on prosperity, seriously i have NEVER seen one of her teachings on prosperity, her main emphasis is on renewing your mind with God's word, God's love for us and the basic truth about being a good person. seriously, she might be wealthy and might be a millionaire but if u actually watch her programs you will see her in several countries around the world feeding the hungry, helping the sick, she's even building a rescue center for those who have suffered through human trafficking, she does a lot to help people through God's word and so I support her

Hi!
You may probably be very curious to know how one can make real money on investments.
There is no initial capital needed.
You may begin earning with a sum that usually is spent
on daily food, that's 20-100 dollars.
I have been participating in one project for several years,
and I'm ready to let you know my secrets at my blog.

Please visit my pages and send me private message to get the info.

Good day, sun shines!
There have been times of hardship when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in big initial investment.
Nowadays, I feel good, I started to get real money.
It gets down to choose a proper companion who uses your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, and shares the profit with me.

You may ask, if there are such firms? I have to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:

I have to wonder if there may be a touch of jealousy here.
There seems to be a common belief that people of faith must be in poverty and if they are not, they surely must be crooks. How is it that we support musicians, artist, actors, politicians ans movie stars and believe they deserve their riches no mater the cause, but grumble when it is someone like Joyce that is doing good. Minisrty is a career and the worker deserves to be paid. The interesting thing about it is that they ask for what others can contribute and give us who benifit from them the option to pay them (support them). I wonder how many professions do that? Does anyone say to their boss, just pay me what you can afford this time?
I thank God for Joyce Meyers and all the others like her. Prosperity comes in many forms and God WILL provide in abundance what is needed to perform your purpose.

please jm is nothing more than a montebank. shes putting on a show. she says shes from south stl, yet no one in south stl speaks like she does. she has no theology degree, yet she proclaims to be a minister. she picks a chooses parts of the bible she wants, and she doesnt even have a church! so how can she have tax exempt status? you do know that the county her recording studio is in, is suing her? plus theres the big fiasco of her personal bodyguard murdering his family. and dont forget the convicted child molestor that was hired for her youth ministry. or the kids that died on her dream center swim trip. and as the mentally challenged womans family about that hierlum ring shes sporting? they have been trying to get that back. or what about the people that get fired, because they have a sick spouse to take care of? or the woman that is cooperating with the police? she no longer works for jmm. her and benny hinn can go have lunch in dantes 7th level of hell for all i care. so you lambs just keep going to the fleeching.

Anonymous said...

I seriously just laughed out loud when I read these comments...and feel very scared that I may live among you weirdos! I AGREE with the author of this article! The idea that someone actually stated "who cares if JM is a scam, she's led people to Jesus" is amazing! How stupid and mindless are people becoming? In all honesty though, if you can be led...be led...and if you are smart enough to not, be grateful that you are not a weak willed follower of adopted opinions and hopeful confusion.

Its funny how all her enemies whine about the money Joyce's ministeries make but would you's even know how many people her ministries help through her charities and teachings. You would not know because she doesn't boast and those charities would be worth millions. How refreshing it is not to hear fire and brimstone but to walk in love, obedience, grace and forgiveness and always reminded to understand the consequence of sin and how to defuse the devil working in your life. How are these teachings bad? Love speaks all languages for healing, understanding and peace thats through Jesus precious name. Is it any wonder she has a huge following all over the world and of course the money that is given and earnt through her teachings its all going to add up. Why don't we ask yourself how we can contribute to God's kingdom even in our own journey instead of finding faults with others how can we give back to people who need God.

Apparently Blogger you feel very impressed with yourself that you have received so many responses to the STRIFE you have sown. Believers in Christ can discern the true from the phony. Ask Jesus into your heart and you will be born again. Read Romans 3:23, 6:23, 5:8, and 10:9 & 10. You'll have a desire for His word and you will learn the truth. :)

People who follow Joyce Meyer are brainwashed. If you need church or crooked televangelists to keep you from chopping your neighbor's head off or screwing your neighbor's cat, then you suck as a person. If you feel compelled to give money to these self-righteous chunks of human debris, then you're part of the problem. "Faith" is overrated....just be a decent person.

It's not about jealousy; many of us could write a book or try, what are her options: she is a very good writer. Any church is free of charge. She could answer her followers it's not about money, but in any light it is. If she gets her earnings in total from book sellings, you could ask yourself, why is this necessary if she's already spreading the Word? Do we want this woman to be poor?No. But do we want her to be wealthy? Why? If she's stating a Christian can be rich too, why does it have to be a Christian? She can easily talk about ordinary people have the right to be rich, because they mostly are in real life. It would be easier for her to only write and sell. I do not know her intentions, she does. If a Christian thinks it is necessary making lots of money with writing books, is selling books and making lots of money necessary to be a Christian?
