He starts off the first minute of his speech talking in front of a lavish marble podium and one of the first connections he makes is that of lust springs from selfishness and how selfishness is one of the greatest evils in the world.

Then I paused the video and looked up this Creflo Dollar figure and here's what's pretty funny:

Controversy

Dollar is known for his controversial teachings of Prosperity theology.[9] He has been criticized for his lavish lifestyle as he owns two Rolls-Royces, a private jet, a million dollar home in Atlanta, and a 2.5 million dollar home in Manhattan.[9] Dollar has refused to disclose his salary and Creflo Dollar Ministries received a grade of "F" for financial transparency by the organization MinistryWatch.[9][13]

Lol he's made so much money off donations he lives in rich lavish Manhattan homes just like the Wallstreet bankers, has his own private jets and rolls royces and the organization that watches all the Christain ministries to make sure pastors aren't swindling money from their congregation gave them a F. Huh.

Senate investigation

On November 6, 2007, United States Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa announced an investigation of several ministries by the United States Senate Committee on Finance. Grassley asked for financial information to determine whether Dollar made any personal profit from financial donations and requested that Dollar's ministry make the information available by December 6, 2007. The investigation also asked for information from five other televangelists: Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Eddie L. Long, Joyce Meyer, and Paula White.[15]

On March 16, 2009, Grassley, now only an individual Senator on the committee, stated "My staff and I continue to review the information we’ve received from the ministries that cooperated, and we continue to weigh our options for the ministries that have not cooperated," noting that two of the ministries, Benny Hinn and Joyce Meyer, gave full financial disclosure. Dollar has contested the probe, arguing that the proper governmental entity to examine religious groups is the IRS, not the Committee on Finance.[16]

So not only Ministry Watch has looked into him but the actual United States Senate Committee on Finance...and while other ministries gave their info up Creflo Dollar hasn't. Huh.

Now before a million religious people enter the thread telling me I'm trying to bring down religion I'm not. I'm against ignorant organized religion. This Creflo Dollar figure has been swindling his congregation for years and earning a living better than you guys can even dream of with multi million dollar homes, private jets, lavish cars and he's probably laughing all the way to the bank. And yet his videos are posted as some sort of moral pinnacle that we should aspire to.

"The Christian religion is a parody on the worship of the sun, in which they put a man called Christ in the place of the sun, and pay him the adoration originally payed to the sun."

Religion is an instrument of control.


I've long studied everything that's needed, come up with my own conclusions, and left United States (to Russia) to live my life to its fullest. So don't take my words as a challenge. I'm not challenging anyone here.

I'll also say that these subjects should be moderated on sosuave. Just from my own experience once I stopped preaching, I've started meeting women, and that's a true reason we are here - to meet women.

No. You read my post, comprehend it and then come back to me. It's obvious you didn't.

Creflo Dollar is laughing his way to the bank right now sipping martini's in his rolls royce (or private jet) because he brainwashed so many people that even with evidence that he is a horrible man they still defend him.

Sounds like a cult spiel to me.

this isn't about the man but the effectiveness of the message if soaked in.

Excerpt from The way of the Superior man from chapter 41 entitled ''turn your lust into gifts''


When a man sees a beautiful woman it is natural for him to feel energy
in his body, which he usually interprets as sexual desire. Rather than
dispersing this energy in mental fantasy, a man should learn to circulate
his heightened energy. He should breathe fully, circulating the energy
fully throughout his body. He should treat his heightened energy as a
gift which could heal and rejuvenate his body, and, through his service,
heal the world.

Through these means, his desire is converted into
fullness of heart. His lust is converted into service. His desire is not
converted by denying sexual attraction, but by enjoying it fully, circulating
it through his body (without allowing it to stagnate as mental
fantasy), and returning it to the world, from his heart.

If you are like most men, sexual energy tends to go directly to
one of two places. Either your head becomes stimulated and you
fantasize about being with a woman who turns you on, or your
genitals become stimulated in lustful need. Your head and genitals,
however, are just the north and south poles of the whole
body. A superior man circulates the energy of arousal throughout
his body, taking particular care not to let it stagnate in swollen
fantasies or appendages.

The purpose of sexual desire is creation. Reproduction is but
the biological aspect of creation. As a man, you probably have
much more to give the world than your children. Just as beautiful
women inspire biological procreation, they also inspire artistic,
social, and spiritual creativity. When it comes down to it, most
creative men will admit that, one way or another, women are
their muse and inspiration. Women bring them into the world.
Women move them to create and serve humanity. In fact, some
men would go so far as to say that, if it weren't for women, they
wouldn't be interested in the world much at all.

If you are a man, you have probably found yourself inspired
at some time or another by a woman. Such inspiration is usually
temporary, because most men don't know how to cultivate their
relationship to the feminine. They tend to be inspired, and then
spurt it out, through spasms of thought and ejaculation. Then
they seek inspiration again, through more women, or through
other feminine sources, such as alcohol, drugs, or nature.
But if you learn to discipline your habits of building up and
releasing mental and sexual tension, you can continually cultivate
and magnify your inspiration. You can wean yourself from the
addictive cycles of sexuality and intoxication. You can make use
of the native force of sexual desire, for your woman and for other
women, and convert your tendency toward fantasy and lust into
the force of inspiration.

Feel lust. Feel what it really is, in its totality. Your lust reveals
your real desire to unite with the feminine, to penetrate as deeply as possible, to receive her delicious light as radiant food for your
masculine soul, and to give her your entirety, losing yourself in
the giving, so that you are both liberated beyond your selves in
the explosion of your gifts.

This explosion of gifting could be the basis of your life, not
just a moment of sexual yielding. When you feel sexual lust or
desire for any woman, breathe deeply and allow the feeling of
desire to magnify. And allow it to magnify more. Don't let the
energy become lodged in your head or genitals, but circulate it
throughout your body. Using your breath as the instrument of
circulation, bathe every cell in the stimulated energy. Inhale it
into your heart, and then feel outward from your heart, feeling
the world as if it were your lover. With an exhale, move into the
world and penetrate it, skillfully and spontaneously, opening it
into love. Through these means, allow women's sexiness to help
you discover and give your gift, rather than beguile you into
cycles of stimulation and depletion.
