When your pastor has a 7 million dollar &#8220;parsonage&#8221; and pays zero property taxes by exploiting Texas laws, I doubt it is a secret among the congregation. Nor is the fact that he has his own little airport and a 10 million dollar Gulfstream jet.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And how about his justification for owning his own jet? Flying commercial might make him &#8220;angry&#8221; and that would affect his preaching negatively.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sounds like a heart problem to me. It would have been much cheaper to let the Holy Spirit take care of that anger.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And Copeland says the house was built out of his love and concern for his wife. He can&#8217;t help being such a devoted husband!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And really, when you&#8217;re worth 770 million dollars, a 7 million dollar house IS pretty modest.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Copeland says, &#8220;Glory to God, hallelujah!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0An absolutely disgusting article in the Daily Mail about Kenneth Copeland today: &#8220;America&#8217;s Wealthiest Pastor&#8221;.
