First of all — I’m a female.
Secondly, Christ said, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for they shall inherit the kingdom.”
Are the prosperity gospelers really poor in spirit?

My older sister fell hook line and sinker for the Prosperity Gospel. She invited me once to her mega-church and I what I heard there I swore I would never go back. The minister, Casey Treat had every one stand up and then asked those who gave 10,000 or more in the year to sit down. Then, 5000, then 1000, then 500, leaving only those standing who gave less. Then he went on with his lecture sermon in which he said the more rich you are the more blessed by God you are, and that if you could not afford to give as much money as the rest - then its because you are not right with God. It was humiliating.
