Selling Out to Cash In.... Ex-Apostolics...
It disturbs me when I see ex-apostolics on Televsion hawking money for the propagation of False Doctrine....
When I see ex-apostolic singers who turn their back on truth and claim anointing and propagate false doctrine...
Seems like they "sold out" to Cash in...
Claiming that their new found wealth & popularity is a sign of God's Blessings....
What think Ye??

I think that is silly to discount everyone that left and just happen to gain wealth as selling out. There are alot of people that are still in the UPC that point their finger and say the ones that left have "soldout." But those are opinions. Opinions are not truths.

I do not think that the money part of the prosperity doctrine is what all are leading too. Althought with larger churches come larger tithe checks. I think that to say "cashing in" is a little of a stretch. Some have cashed in referring to money. Some have cashed in with a more effective ministries, better programs, etc. Some have gone crazy and left God altogether. Some have stepped out from under the crazy-con-ideology that some of the UPC has and been able to reach better, further and been more affective.
But keep in mind that the bible says, Deuteronomy 8:18
But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
Remember that wealth is not always money, but sometimes it is.

Yes, but let's also remember that wealth was to establish HIS covenant, not our personal kingdoms.
