Bro. Benincasa,

The principle of the thing is common among our Apostolic folks as well. They get a position of authority and it goes to their head and next thing you know they are judging others, and then caught in immoral lifestyles and extravagance just like the Charismatic folks.

The Bible is so explicit in its multiple admonishions to not judge others, or measure ourselves by ourselves. I know it has proven true in my life, the things I judged others for came home to roost in my life or the lives of family members.

This is why I hate some of these threads. It sets us up to be judge and jury and what God has called us to is grace and mercy. Unconditional positive regard without casting stones.

I am with Sherri on this one. The money and popularity got to their heads as it could and has with many of us. Let's pray for Paula and Randy. Pray that they go back to the time that they loved God purely...just because of who he is and not because of what they can gain.

Sincerely, Rhoni

Do you know the Whites personally, or just from being in the area? Not trying to discredit or anything, just wondering.

I have met Paula many times but she probably don't know/remember me. I have gone to several of her women's conferences and regular services from time to time when I lived in Tampa/Clearwater.

We've never went to lunch together if that is what you mean. Hope that answers your question.

Blessings, Rhoni

Sister Rhoni, most of the One God Jesus name people don't have enough money to buy an ice cream cone let alone a jet or a Bentley.

We are not talking about normal people; we are talking about a group who has ascended to a place where they live like rock stars. Call them like you see them. We should pray that Paula and Randy get themselves to a One God Pentecostal church and get prayed through buy some Apostolics.



Lord bless you

In Jesus name

Some of us can afford an ice cream cone....maybe two! My personal take on this comment was that too many Apostolic men and women didn't pursue a higher education and they were stuck in a box of ignorance and poverty.

So you are saying that Paula White and Juanita Bynum are from the hallowed ivory halls?
