"GOD TV"

A few days ago I received the latest SCP Journal www.scp-inc.org. It has a very interesting article by Alan Morrison with extensive quotes from a variety of "popular" TV preachers. He also connects much of the prosperity preaching to the New thought movement in late 19th century America. Some quotes (get the article to read them in their entirety):

Creflo A. Dollar: God is limited by man's faith to be able to act on Earth. If God is God, He can do anything He wants at any time.

Kenneth Hagin: First. . .decide what you want from God and find Scriptures which cover your case. . . How about first deciding what God wants.

Steve Munsy: You can speak anything you want into existence. Why don't they speak into existence a world where everyone is healthy or wealthy?

"And they tested God in their heart
By asking for the food of their fancy.
Therefore the Lord heard this and was furious. . ."
Psalm 78:18, 21 (NKJV)
