Ultra Conservatives 'Go Hollywood'

Prominent WPF CEO shares lifestyle is one of rich and famous. From elite prestigous golf course closed community mansion home, backyard pool parties, lamborginis, selling church website 'space' subscriptions, weekend getaways to the beach, Cancun, high dollar hotel stays and weekly speaking engagements across the Nation flying first class--Excuse me and Jesus, WHAT am I 'missing'? Has ULTRACON gone Hollywood? Somebody help me understand. Jesus was with the poor, lepers, and not near a grocery store or a Resort. Jesus never had a vacation. Do you feel and share my heartbeat for God? Anyone else notice odd activity among WPF folks? Your opinions, if you please.

Terry, this has been going on among the UPCI uppers for a long time. I've been in or around this stuff all my life and seen it. Most of the WPF's come out of that! The only difference between the two is who's on first!

Re: Ultra Conservatives 'Go Hollywood'

lol...have you just now found that out...

However in the mist of two different lifestyles dear one God does have people that take up their cross daily, and are a part of what Paul talked about In 2 Cor. 11:25

Are they servants of Christ?—I speak as if insane—I more so; in far more labors, in far more imprisonments, beaten times without number, often in danger of death. 24 Five times I received from the Jews thirty-nine lashes. 25 Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, a night and a day I have spent in the deep. 26 I have been on frequent journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from robbers, dangers from my countrymen, dangers from the Gentiles, dangers in the city, dangers in the wilderness, dangers on the sea, dangers among false brethren; 27 I have been in labor and hardship, through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure. 28 Apart from such external things, there is the daily pressure on me of concern for all the churches. 29 Who is weak without my being weak? Who is led into sin without my intense concern?
30 If I have to boast, I will boast of what pertains to my weakness. 31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, He who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying...

Could this by any stretch of the imagination be considered "worldly"?

Isn't worldly another word for materialistic?

Maybe he just doesn't believe in living that way! Maybe he does have the money.

Re: Ultra Conservatives 'Go Hollywood'

It is very easy to see how the other party spends their money! Hard to see how we do!
