Secret Service and IRS investigating New Birth Missionary Baptist Church for "issues surrounding investment seminars hosted by a metro Atlanta megachurch after some former members say they lost their retirement savings."

Interesting some still attend. Imagine suing the pastor of church you still attend.

There is this pastor here who believes that word/faith "your money is mine" stuff. He bilked an old man out of his home and was sued by the DA.

Surely the end must be near!! I have never seen so much evil within the pretense of Christianity as I have lately. How can people be so nieve to this stuff.

I guess preaching new revelations and going into spiritual things that no one has ever presented is charming to many.

No one likes the old, " Sinner repent and believe on Jesus" and Christian," You need to repent of those sins and live holy unto the Lord>
I better stop before I get started>/
