Oral Roberts University Leadership in Trouble

There is some kind of major lawsuit against Richard & Lindsay Roberts & other leaders by three government teachers/deans who were recently fired. The list of charges is HUGE, including misappropriation of funds, special favors and scholarships given to unqualified friends, etc. I really hope it's not true, and is just some vendetta by these teachers, but sadly I don't really doubt most of it. Ashley got a great education there, but there were some problems.

Maybe triumphant1 has more insights on this???????

Well, Sister maybe all of that will help them seek truth and get baptized in Jesus name and filled with the Holy Ghost with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.

In Jesus name

Wow. I had to look it up - but "God" hasn't killed him yet. OR is still going at 89 years old.

This article says he's a "former faith healer." Meaning he doesn't have faith any longer? Or that he doesn't heal any longer? Is he still on TV and/or making appearances?

He doesn't have his tv or radio programs any more.
I think he does occasionally appear on TBN.

You big JUDGES just keep on - your judgment is gonna be swift and harsh. I feel sorry for you. I know many, many that have been saved, healed and set free by the ministry of this man.
If I were sick - I sure would not come to YOU to pray because YOU would have to judge me first to bring me under your control.
If I get sick - TAKE ME TO SOMEONE WITH FAITH!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS ORAL ROBERTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
