Paula White Divorce: Money, Fame & Power Not Enough

sad to hear paula and randy do something about this do you realise the impact this will have on the body of christ ? surely divorces will be common among christians - if the foundations are shaken what will the righteous do ? "if paula can divorce what more of me im just a member..." what kept this marriage for 18 years should sustain it . love you guys praying for you. IT IS WELL

It is a shame before God all of the judging that is being printed on this post. Be it Paula or Juanita only GOD truly knows the issues of their lives and whether or not they have truly lived according to his will (practicing what they preach). The judging should be left to GOD and to the overseers that will oneday have to give an account to GOD for watching over their lives with entrusted spiritual authority. I agree with the other post that christians need to be judged by other authoritarians in the church-it is the will of GOD. So why don't we allow those that GOD HAS APPOINTED TO WATCH OVER THEM AND CORRECT THEM ...to do their job. If they don't oversee them well according to GOD's will than they (as overseers) will have to give an account to GOD and not to us. Since we were not there, nor do we know the exact happenings in each situation...how on earth can we say anything? You have to be in a situation to really judge, otherwise everything is mere heresay.
All I know is that GOD specializes in helping those that want to be helped...healing those that want to be healed...and delivering those that want to be delivered...restoration is GOD's eternal promise if we want it. Neither of these women owe anybody a thing except for GOD, and yes, the people they serve. It would only be right for them to say something honest and sincere about the situation without adding any additional hurt to what their reputations have already suffered.
I believe only a fool would ignore that these women have walked intimately with GOD whether they have missed the mark in recent times or not. The devil would never have allowed their ministries to grow as they have while at the same time giving GOD all the GLORY. The devil can't hate GOD and then stand behind a project that completely glorifies GOD's name (the scrpture clearly says a nation divided against itself can't stand). So I am sure that GOD can lead them through these difficult times and even through their own mistakes (if they have committed any). The bible is clear on our imperfections as saints...confess your sin and he (GOD) will cleanse you of all unrighteousness.
Let us pray for these women that they will find the strength to continue in the will that GOD has predestined for their lives...and if they have made a mistake or gotten out of GOD's will...let us pray that the HOLY SPIRIT will convict their hearts unto repentance and restore their lives to VICTORY. Faithful is he that calls us and he will do it...
Our Saviour Cometh....Strengthening the brethren always...In Jesus Name

Sadly, Randy and Paula are FALSE CONVERTS! Jesus spoke of this many times in scripture ie... the wheat and tares, sheep and goats, the wise and foolish virgins, etc... I am praying that God will use this to humble them and that they will repent and turn to the real Jesus before it is to late. If you read this and get upset to the idea that they are not saved, please visit Ray Comfort and kirk Cameron's ministry called Way of The Master. Their website is www.wayofthemaster.com and please listen to True and False Conversion and Hell's best Kept Secret or order their book The Way of The Master. If you truly love the Lord their material will open your eyes and reveal to you why all the sin in the church.

i will pray for them to come back together. the devil comes to steal, kill and destroy. he is a liar

there is only one biblical ground for divorce, and taht is adultry, not "we are growing apart and minsirty is taking us else where" They both need to step down and whats more thier Bishop (TD Jakes) should demand it,and "Christian" televison should cancel her programming because they are both obviously insinful condition and have no ground to minister the Gospel!!!

Susan is correct. They both need to step down and church discilpline is in order here. The sad thing is that nobody knows scripture anymore or they do not take the scriptures literally. The charasmatic movement hates when anyone corrects them (the leaders)and say that we are judgemental and coming against the annointed. Most people that are on the TBN network need to repent and know the REAL Jesus before it is to late.

Mat. 7:21-23 Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name? And then I (Jesus)will declare to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice LAWLESSNESS!(False Converts)

Just remember that there are many false preachers and teachers out there, especially in the church today. This was all prophesied that in the last days these things will happen. Read the Bible and take it literally and OBEY what you read. That is the way we know a true believer in Jesus that we OBEY what we read and it produces GOOD fruit!

You assume that we are giving our money to Paula White because we have compassion for her. The true test is when God will judge her. Not man. Man can destroy the flesh, but God can destroy both the soul and the flesh. Have some compassion and pray for the lady if you think she is a crook and stop repeating yourself on all these posts!

Gee, I didn't see any mention of money in Womba's post. So, why would you bring up the subject of money? I guess when money, money, money is always on your mind you talk/post about it even when the post you're responding to made no mention of it.

The more you post the more foolish you look.

Let's make a deal. You stop repeating yourself, and we'll stop repeating ourselves.

By the way, you DID say you were not concerned with what happened with your offerings once you gave them. That, my dear, is just flat out stupid, on top of being contrary to the Word.

Be blessed! No, not with material things, but with the peace of God that passeth all understanding.

Now, remember, we're not going to repeat ourselves.

You didn't see any mention of money in Womba's post? go back and read all of her posts then. Once again, pay attention to content and context as well. You need to stop reapting yourself as well. I know I said I was concerned with what happened with my offerings once I gave them...what is your point? You were talking about "tithes" when you made the statement. By the way, that was a totally different post!

"I know I said I was concerned with what happened with my offerings once I gave them..."

No, that's not what you said. You said you were NOT concerned..."

Are you saying you're concerned about your tithes, but they can do whatever they please with your offerings? The point being you cannot give your tithes OR offerings to people/ministries you know or suspect are using those monies improperly
and then lay the responsibility at God's feet to do something about it. That suggests God gave you neither a brain nor common sense. Are you saying that you're brainless or lacking in common sense?

There's no mention of money in Womba's post that you replied to. Now you want to tie your response to posts she submitted days/weeks ago. Give me a break!!

My sister, you have some serious issues, and I have neither the professional training nor the time to attempt to deal with them or you.

Have a blessed life!

Stop repeating yourself!!!

I bid you adieu.

What is your point? whether I am concerned or not? It is my responsibiltiy as a Christian to do what the word says. Bring my tithes to the storehouse. My tithes are given to my local church that I am a memeber of!! why is that so hard for you to understand? I do not suspect my tithes nor my offerings are being used improperly so what is your point in bringing tithes up in the post? And if Womba has a problem with what I posted, she has her own hands to type with. Good day

DapperDave, I know that you are upset with Sister in NJ, but you do not need to insult her or cause this issue to escalate. You BOTH need to calm down or you will both be sinning in your anger. Lets stay on topic. Thank you.

The comments have been interesting.

Yes they have! The poor lady from NJ is stalking me in other topics now.

I'll pray for her. Maybe she'll pray for me.

LOL

For all of the ones that are saying things about the financial wealth the couple have.....
You should be glad to see people of God with the better things in life. Living a holy life payoff in this world is wealth. It is just sad to know that you would applaud rich celebrities.You must remember you reap what you sow. If you sow a good seed then you will reap a good seed. Just keep them in your prayers and stop judging. They are people. Evaluate your relationship with your spouse. Caught at the wrong place at the wrong time you do not not know what your flesh may do. This flesh is always subject to error.

They have done the same thing as written below.

(Matthew 21:12-14) 12 And Jesus entered into the temple and threw out all those selling and buying in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. 13 And he said to them:“It is written,‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but YOU are making it a cave of robbers.”

They are no different.

Aren't we suppose to learn something from the Bible ?

Maybe they should have read the scriptures a little bit closer and then applied them.

(Matthew 5:27-30) 27 “YOU heard that it was said,‘You must not commit adultery.’ 28 But I say to YOU that everyone that keeps on looking at a woman so as to have a passion for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If, now, that right eye of yours is making you stumble, tear it out and throw it away from you. For it is more beneficial to you for one of your members to be lost to you than for your whole body to be pitched into Ge·hen&#8242;na. 30 Also, if your right hand is making you stumble, cut it off and throw it away from you. For it is more beneficial to you for one of your members to be lost than for your whole body to land in Ge·hen&#8242;na.

One of them has been judged by the scriptures. We don't have to. And it makes their ministry a sham.....

By stalking you, she may learn something.

Still waiting for an answer.
If you want me to believe, just show me the facts,
name, place and date. A doctor's certificate of death would also help.

Excuse me, I did not say that I am not concerned with what the leaders of my church do with the tithes. Go back and read and stop jumping to conclusions. Second of all, my tithes do go to God. Your quoting the scripture but do you know what the content and context mean? what does storehouse mean to you? what does "that there may be meat in mine house" mean to you? how do you get your tithes and offerings to God? I'm sorry that's right, you don't give tithes. You are held responsible for quoting the word, being a hearer and not a doer.

ok...i am not upset with the fact that some ministers have money. having money is not a sin but being a bad steward is. too whom much is given much is required. as long as the money is received via honest measures and used in honest measures having money isn't wrong.
i "am upset about the divorce because the ministries are going in different directions". that is not biblical. if there was infidelity or abuse i could understand.
