A Florida televangelist who has taken a job in Donald Trump White House said in a sermon on Sunday that Christians who give money to her ministry will receive life-clarifying 'visons' from God.
Paula White has been close to the presdient since at least 2002, and she says the pair once planned to open a megachurch together. She preaches the 'Prosperity Gospel,' which says giving money to churches and religious causes brings health and wealth.
She prayed Sunday that congregants would open their wallets. 'Maybe that's a sacrifice of fifty dollars or a hundred dollars, maybe it's a thousand dollars, whatever it is you speak,' she told the Almighty.
'Some of us are gonna get a covenant seed right now,' she said, referring to her belief that cash donations are 'seeds' that grow into karma-like benefits that return to the giver in larger ways.

Very disappointed with Trump that he takes this charlatan harpy and proponent of the gospel of satan under his wing!
You could probably bang her all night long on a Thursday for 5 grand.
Creflo Dollar, Rick Warren, James MacDonald, Kenneth Copeland, and thousands of others.
And that one guy who needed “another” bizjet upgrade.
Pastors Darrell Scott and Robert Jeffress would also be much superior choices.
No solicitations of money, please.
White strikes me as another Jim Bakker or Pat Robertson.
She needs to go away or return to being an advisor in GOOD FAITH!!
Jesse DuPlantis wanted a 4th jet - or was it that cat in Atlanta Creflo Dollar?
Another trump bad hire.
someday you’ll be unfairly smeared like you just did
Straight from Satan my ass. Get off your aimhigh holier than thou horse.
I guess I’m lucky I don’t have to go to DU, CNN, NYT, WP, Huff Post or any other media source to read these sick Christian-bashing and I know better than Trump crap comments. Trump critics are everywhere and in every crevice.
Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Aimee Semple McPherson and Tammy Faye Bakker are all dead.
I think it was that Dollar guy that wanted a fourth jet.
Is it possible to get accurate media stories on anyone close to Trump?
Is it possible to fool some of the people some of the time?
Another Trump critic and weak link.
Acts 8:20 - “But Peter said to him, Your money perish with you, because you thought that the gift of God could be purchased with money!”
You assume she is a Christian. Real Christians don't sell spiritual promises for money.
Wonder if she ever preaches on Luke 6:24? It's a perspective Jesus pushed to the point of obstinacy.
The story appears accurate judging from the video of her sermon. We’ve heard this same spiel from other supposed spiritual leaders who say that God will dispense money to those who donate to their ministeries. The preachers get very, very rich, abut the same cannot be said of all who donate to them. What about this story appears inaccurate to you?
Goodness. Before he became President I thought he was really good at hiring. Shows you how phony all the reality shows are.
Please do not confuse evangelical preachers with prosperity preachers.
Evangelical preachers come in all flavors. Some are good. Some are not so good. On the other hand, prosperity preachers are garbage. All of them. They are an embarrassment to the Christian faith.
So how can you tell the difference between an evangelical preacher and a prosperity preacher? As I noted earlier, one way is to look for the word seed. Prosperity preachers just love that word.
Care to explain exactly what that means?
