Part 3/9:
In the modern landscape, it is no secret that salvation can sometimes come with a price. Many high-profile evangelists and pastors have built affluent lifestyles through the support of their congregations. Shocking instances have come to light where pastors, claiming to serve God, seem to be more focused on accumulating wealth.
A notable case involves Marvin Sapp, a pastor who was recently criticized after a viral video showed him demanding $40,000 from his congregation during a church service. His insistence on locking the doors until he received the donations raised eyebrows, drawing comparisons to coercive tactics. This behavior raises significant concerns about the ethicality of church funding practices and the true motivations behind such demands.
