The Ministry pays all expenses, including landscaping and lawn care, property taxes and rehab work. Meyer, her husband and each of their four married children live in the homes, free of charge. If worldly wealth was the proof of being the greatest Bible teacher of the century, then Time Magazine and Benny Hinn’s estimate of Meyer’s ministry would be correct. However, the greatest ministry of this century is Jesus Christ. “Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the Lord, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the Lord.”--- Jer. 23:32 Her way to heaven is wrong! God’s way is the Cross of Jesus! Joyce Meyer says God has made her rich. Everything she has came from Him: the $10 million corporate jet, her husband's $107,000 silver-gray Mercedes sedan, her $2 million home and houses worth another $2 million for http://www.miracleinternetchurch.com Page 3 her four children -- all blessings, she says, straight from the hand of God. It's been an amazing run, nothing short of a miracle, says Meyer, a one-time bookkeeper who heads one of the world's largest television ministries. Her Life in the Word organization expects to take in $95 million this year. Just look around, she told reporters last month from behind her desk on the third floor of the ministry's corporate offices in Jefferson County. ``Here I am, an ex-housewife from Fenton, with a 12th-grade education,'' she said. ``How could anybody look at this and see anything other than God?”5 This television star (idol) proves that her treasures are on this Matt 6:24 earth. “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to Residence of: Joyce and Dave the one, and despise the other.

However, the greatest ministry of this century is Jesus Christ and His Word which this lady does not know or preach!

When I ran for the Florida State Legislature in the seventies, “taxation on the sanctuary” was an issue. Get ready church, the abuses and sins of these “get rich preachers” will hurt everyone. Joyce’s worldly wealth On November 6, 2007, United States senator Chuck Grassley of I o w a announced an investigation of Meyer's ministry by the United http://www.miracleinternetchurch.com Page 5 States Senate Committee on Finance.[23] Grassley asked for the ministry to divulge financial information[24][25] to the committee to determine if Meyer made any personal profit from financial donations, citing such expenses as a $23,000 commode, a $30,000 conference table and requested that Meyer's ministry make the information available by December 6, 2007. The investigation also aimed to scrutinize five other televangelists: Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Eddie L. Long, Paula White, and Creflo Dollar.6 The ministry website explains that the $23,000 commode was a chest of drawers purchased at $230.00 among 68 pieces of furniture that were purchased for their offices. Their website states, "The $23,000 purchase price of this chest of drawers was actually an errant value assigned by the selling agent after the transaction was complete for the entire sixty-eight piece lot. Joyce Meyer Ministries humbly regrets not paying closer attention to specific 'assigned values' placed on those pieces that have now led to gross misrepresentations." 7 Joyce Meyer Ministries responded with a United States Senator Chuck newsletter to its e-mail list subscribers on Grassley November 9, 2007. The organization referred to its annual financial reports, asserting that, in 2006, the ministry spent 82 percent of its total expenses "for outreach and program services toward reaching people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as attested by independent accounting firm Stanfield & O'Dell, LLP." The message also quoted an October 10, 2007 letter from the Internal Revenue Service which stated, "We determined that you [Joyce 6 ^ a b "Televangelists Living Like Kings?".

  • Word-Faith Movement (Positive Confession Movement)
    Word-Faith Movement (Positive Confession Movement) History, Beliefs, and Practices Identity: A movement (not a denomination as such) whose proponents teach that divine health and prosperity are the rights of every Christian who will apply enough faith to receive them. Popularized by television evangelists, the Word-Faith movement urges the appropriation of faith through the making of a “positive confession.” The movement is otherwise referred to as “Prosperity Gospel,” “Health and Wealth Gospel,” and “Name It and Claim It.” Founder(s): The movement has no “founders” as such, though Essek William Kenyon (1867-1948) is often credited with laying the foundation for the Word-Faith movement. Identified as subscribing to Word-Faith teaching are personalities such as Paul and Jan Crouch (Trinity Broadcasting Network), David Yonggi Cho, Kenneth and Gloria Copeland, John Avazani, Joel Osteen, T. L. Osborne, Robert Tilton, Marilyn Hickey, Frederick Price, Benny Hinn, Oral Roberts, Jerry Savelle, Morris Cerullo, Casey Treat, Dwight Thompson, Rodney Howard-Browne,and Kenneth Hagin. Word-Faith ideas are featured and promulgated through television principally by the Trinity Broadcasting Network. Statistics: No statistics on the number of followers is available. History: The beginnings of the Word [of] Faith or Positive Confession Movement can be traced to the writings of the radio preacher and Methodist minister William Essek Kenyon (1867- 1948). He wrote about fifteen books in which he “stressed the power of words spoken in faith and the supremacy of a so-called revelation knowledge over knowledge obtained by the senses: ‘A strong confession [of positive faith]…brings God on the scene…Faith counts the thing done before God has acted.

  • Exposing Joyce Meyer by Josh Buice | Feb 14, 2008 ​ ​ Originally Published on the DBG Website
    Exposing Joyce Meyer by Josh Buice | Feb 14, 2008 ​ ​ Originally published on the DBG website: http://www.deliveredbygrace.com/exposing-joyce-meyer/ Peter promised in 2 Peter 2:1-2 that false teachers would come upon the people just ​ as they had plagued the people of God in the Old Testament days. He said, “But false ​ prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth will be blasphemed.” ​ Unfortunately, many of these false teachers are abundantly available on the television programs of T.B.N. and other affiliates across the world. One of the most popular television teachers who must be categorized as a heretic and a false teacher is Joyce Meyer. She is extremely popular with women and many men alike. She teaches on many practical issues which make her popular, but hidden beneath her practical teaching are troublesome doctrines that need to be exposed. Joyce Meyer (like most false teachers) teaches extra-biblical doctrines as if they are divinely inspired. Meyer even goes as far on one occasion as stating that the Bible is insufficient to reveal the truth and you must get specific knowledge through divine revelation. Errors on the Atonement Meyer can be classified as a Word-Faith teacher and as such has shown an inclination to waffle on major doctrines. In her 1991 booklet, The Most Important Decision You Will ​ Ever Make, an evangelistic work aimed at nonbelievers, she resounds the Word-Faith ​ view of Christ’s atonement: “During that time He entered hell, where you and I deserved to go (legally) because of our sin.

    The Prosperity Gospel Defined • The “Prosperity Gospel” is a view now promoted from many pulpits that… • A) Financial well-being is God’s reward/sign of approval for Christians. • B) Sufficient faith, “positive” mind-sets, and monetary donations to churches will garner the approval of God, and thus serve to increase one’s wealth. • C) Also known as “health and wealth” gospel. “The Bankruptcy of Prosperity Preaching”, October 17th, 2010 , Southside Church of Christ, Fort Myers, FL • From Robert Tilton…“I believe that it is the will of God for all to prosper because I see it in the Word [of God], not because it has worked mightily for someone else. I do not put my eyes on men, but on God who gives me the power to get wealth.” • “God desires us to become wealthy for him.” (Tecoy Porter, Releasing Your Inner Treasure: 8 Kingdom Keys to Unlocking the Wealth Within You, xxvi). • From Joel Osteen…“God wants us to prosper financially, to have plenty of money, to fulfill the destiny He has laid out for us.” Verses used by Prosperity proponents to support belief • Malachi 3:10: "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it" (KJV). • Matthew 25:14–30: the Parable of the talents. • John 10:10: "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly" (KJV).
