The Biggest Scam of All: Pastor Creflo Dollar Will Get His $65 Million Luxury Jet

Posted: 06/05/2015 5:15 pm EDT Updated: 06/05/2015 5:59 pm EDT

You may have heard the story a few months ago about an Atlanta-based minister who claimed he needed a $65 million private jet so he could "safely and swiftly share the Good News of the Gospel worldwide." But almost as quickly as Pastor Creflo Dollar asked his 200,000 followers to each donate $300.00 towards the purchase of a luxurious jet, the campaign vanished and was removed from his website.

But now, the board of World Changers Church International -- which also operates as Creflo Dollar Ministries, has announced it is ready to purchase the plane.

"We plan to acquire a Gulfstream G650 because it is the best, and it is a reflection of the level of excellence at which this organization chooses to operate."

This has got to be one of the biggest shams ever, and there's so much delusion it's hard to even figure out where to begin.

Let's start with the money. Imagine what could be accomplished with $65 million! That's a lot of money. Do you think Jesus would have wanted his earthly representatives travelling the globe in luxurious accommodations? Or do you think Jesus would have wanted to see that $65 million used to feed the poor, help the homeless, improve education, or just make some kind of huge impact to help humanity?

World Changers Church International said, "A long-range, high-speed, intercontinental jet aircraft is a tool that is necessary in order to fulfill the mission of the ministry."

Sure, who wouldn't want such a nice aircraft to travel the world? I know I would and I bet you would, too. And if you're one of the few people in this world who can afford one, go for it! But when you start hitting up your congregants -- many of whom struggle with their day-to-day finances and barely have enough money to provide the basic necessities for themselves and their families -- that's when something has to be done.

What about flying commercially? Jesus travelled on foot and by donkey. Granted there were no Gulfstream G650s back in the day, but if there were somehow I don't think you would have seen Jesus flying around in one. Dollar resides in Atlanta, the city with the world's largest airport with flights to every major international destination on a daily basis. Certainly it would be more cost effective for his flock to do their work around the world this way.

But after all, God told him to buy the plane. Dollar said, "If I want to believe God for a $65 million plane, you cannot stop me. You cannot stop me from dreaming. I'm gonna dream until Jesus comes."

I don't know what's worse: the fact that Creflo Dollar believes God spoke to him and told him to buy this jet, or the fact that people are so gullible and delusional and are actually supporting this guy. Of course, as Dollar puts it, it's simply part of what he calls "prosperity theology," in other words, giving of your own money to the church because by doing so your level of personal wealth is blessed and will grow significantly.

It's not surprising, really, that people buy into this nonsense. After studying mental toughness training for the last 31 years, there's a definite pattern of people who are operating from a weak state of mind to be more vulnerable to the suspension of critical thinking and doing anything that makes them feel better. Being addicted to the emotion of hope is a killer, so when Pastor Dollar tells them to give $300.00 and reminds them of the promise of everlasting life, a mansion in the sky and being reunited with loved ones, it sure sounds pretty good.

The bottom line: It's time for people to wake up and stop being stupid! Stop being manipulated and giving your money to the power hungry religious leader who owns two Rolls Royce cars and multiple multi-million-dollar homes. Creflo Dollar is a fake. If he was so genuinely concerned about doing good and Godly deeds, he would be raising $65 million to truly make a difference in the lives of so many. Instead, he'll be enjoying a better than first-class experience as he jets around the world in style laughing at the farce he created.

You know what they say, there is definitely money to be made if you embrace the cross and worship the Lord.

Grand total of miles Jesus walked in His 33 years on earth while traveling on trips:

It's said that Jesus walked an average of 20-25 miles per day during his ministry. I don’t know if that’s true, but here is a brief summary of the miles we do know about:

• Every devout Jewish male went to Jerusalem three times per year to attend religious festivals. Since Jesus lived in Nazareth, that would have been a 240 mile round trip, three times per year. Between the ages of 5 and 30, then, Jesus would have walked 18,000 miles in trips to Jerusalem alone (3 x 240 x 25)

• At the start of His ministry, Jesus went to be baptized in the wilderness of Judea. He then went to Galilee and was in Capernaum and Cana. This would have been a round trip of at least 240 miles.

• Jesus then went from Galilee to Jerusalem, then returned to Galilee (another 240 miles)

• After returning to Jerusalem, Jesus again went to Galilee (another 240 miles) (John 5:1-47). Jesus is next again in Jerusalem for the ‘Feast of Booths’ (John 7:2) and back for another 240 miles. There is the ‘Feast of Dedication’ that Jesus attended for another round trip of 240 miles. Then Jesus does a final walk from Galilee to Jerusalem to be crucified. (Luke 17:11) This is 120 miles. As a devout Jew, Jesus would have made at least 9 trips to Jerusalem and return during His ministry. Five of those trips are mentioned in the Bible, and four are not. Therefore one must add the additional four trips for a total of 240 miles x 4 = 960 miles. So the total miles from Nazareth or Capernaum to Jerusalem and return would be 2,280 miles during Jesus’ 3 year ministry.

• The Bible mentions other trips that Jesus went on as well. He made one circuit trip from Capernaum to Cana and Nazareth and return. (60 miles) John 2 1-11. He also made a circuit trip to Nain and returned to Capernaum. (70 miles) Luke 7:11.

• A number of other trips Jesus took are mentioned in the Bible, and those who have calculated the total mileage of Jesus during His public ministry (for trips alone) estimate it to be about 3,125 miles. So the grand total of miles Jesus walked in His 33 years on earth while traveling on trips would be 21,525 miles:

• 400 miles from Egypt to Nazareth.

• 18,000 miles from Nazareth to Jerusalem and back by age 30.

• 3,125 miles during His 3-year public Ministry.
