Trump spiritual adviser tells followers to skip paying electric bills so they can send her church more cash
Published 9 hours ago on February 17, 2020
Paula White, a prosperity gospel minister who serves as President Donald Trumps spiritual adviser, apparently believes her followers should live in the dark to help keep the lights on at her church.
A lengthy report on White by Mother Jones reveals that the Trump-loving preacher recently told followers at her Supernatural Ministry School in Miami that they could secure Gods favor by sending her church as much money as possible even if that meant skipping their monthly electric bills.
In particular, White said that followers who send their money to Florida Power and Light (FPL) every month instead of giving it to her church are treating the electric company better than they treat God.

Instead of writing [that check] to the house of God as Im instructed to, then what Im saying spiritually is, FPL, I have now established a spiritual law that put you first,' White explained to her flock. So, FPL, save my family, FPL, deliver my drug addicted son. FPL, kill this cancer that doctors say is in my body.

(50,559 posts)A person would have to be on crack to send Paula White $1144.
However, if you send Paula White $1144 you wont be able to afford any crack.
Therefore, she sends you a coca seed so you can make your own crack.

The article says they get a prayer cloth for their donation.

...roughly HALF the people on the face of this earth are 'lightly breaded , pan-fried dog turds with a cat urine reduction sauce' CRAZY!...and the ones we have here in the former democratic republic known as the United States have added 'willful ignorance' to that mix, culminating in that most disgusting and dangerous of creatures - the trump supporter.
...I'm sorry I had to spring that on you, but,....you were bound to find out someday!
...oh, and they tend to have more kids than the rest of us....
...have a great day!

The reconnection charge is going to make a hell of a lot of people think about denying Caesar that which is Caesar's in order to make a bottle blonde fake preacher richer.

(5,401 posts)And Paula has found the perfect channel!
Just send Paula your electricity money!
(The Nigerian Scam Artist tricks, coming to your very own part of the Good ol' US of A!)
But Paula has forgotten a few details . . . so, questions!
1. Does this payment guarantee me a free pass into Heaven, and if so, will you send me that pass for future use?
2. Will you be too busy counting 'your' newfound riches, to do 1 above?
3. Once the lights go out here because my electric bill is way overdue, how will I know if the free pass is on it's way to my letter box? I will be in the dark, and freezing to death, so I need it quick!
4. Does the same deal apply to other payments I normally make, like mortgage, car bills?
Haven't thought it through, really,have you dear? Bless your little Evangelical, greedy heart!
(Just like Trump really. He doesn't think things through either.)

Sadly given the stuff I have seen, I don't doubt it at all. Is there any audio or video of this? I didn't see any on any of the links I followed.
