Here's one of those grifter preacher guys defending himself owning private jets. If you're following people like this, then stop immediately. They're scam artists acting like they're doing God's work, but they're really just siphoning money from people. They're total scumbags acting in the face of God to get rich and wealthy. An article from years ago covered <a href="Wealthy televangelist explains his fleet of private jets: 'It's a biblical thing'" target="_blank">this rotten fella... saying...</a><br /> <blockquote> <p>Criticized at the time for his use of extravagant planes, [Kenneth] Copeland argued that travel for his work would be difficult, nay, impossible without them. The Texas-based preacher invoked his mentor, prosperity gospel preacher Oral Roberts, who Copeland said faced unsolicited requests for prayer when he flew on public airliners, "agitating his spirit."</p> <p class="gnt_ar_b_p">"You can't manage that today, in this dope-filled world, get in a long tube with a bunch of demons," Copeland told fellow televangelist Jesse Duplantis, who has faced similar backlash for asking his followers to bankroll a $54 million jet.

Last month, the preacher was asked to clarify his remarks by Lisa Guerrero, a reporter for news magazine Inside Edition. Their exchange recently went viral, reigniting conversations about televangelists and the tax-exempt status of churches.</p> </blockquote>
