When keeley ask Dave about how he supports himself/ how being a minister, left me a bit wondering a bit, his strange explanation on how he supports himself

he went on to say: "in different ways we have partners that support us, bring ministries from other parts of the world and I set up conferences and then I do my own conferences, then I go to churches and speak in churches"

Uhmm got the funny feeling he has some explaining to do to his congregation...

[vesavius]

He draws a wage from the cult he set up and leads.

[Colbert-Bump]

So what?

[AtomicKitty]

wonder then how these people that follow him feel about giving and his family a free ride

[Angus]

What on earth is it to do with Keeley or you or I how he makes his money? The nosy bitch is unemployed herself so she can't talk.

why do I care?!! because churches are tax exempt institutions where a heck of a lot of money flows in, which most followers give as donation to support the church infrastructure, activities, charity and community support and certainly Not support a grown a** man. he strong, he is young, and is not handicapped so why the heck isn't he working like everyone else?! while doing his ministry?... right because he is milking the members donations...

I Sure would also be drunk on the lords love if someone was paying my mortgage, feeding and clothing me and whatever expense...

[vesavius]

btw, its 'dodgy' , not 'doggy'.

Unless you are sugessting he is, in fact, a dog.

[AtomicKitty]

Doggy fits him quite well I think

God will provide.

Its not a free ride, its entertainment.

I don't think the members of his church would call his role of being a minister in the church as entertainment.
I'm just wondering if his followers are fully aware that their contributions to the church are also contributions to pay for his comfy keeping.
I highly doubt it.
heck this it the first time I hear of a minister getting a paid to speak in churches and for spreading the love of God and gospel?
sorry but that sounds a bit strange and like a scam.

[SoFarSoGood282]

He takes donations on his website.....

[AtomicKitty]

He lives with lives at home with his wife of 17 years along with his four kids, three dogs, six chickens and lots of rabbits.
thats a lot of dosh needed too keep all that.
if he takes donation on his website and his organization is listed as a nonprofit organization since it is a church then thats tax exempt.. now if he is dipping into that pot of donations to support himself and his noah's ark of a family...and unless they members of the church are fully disclose that some of the money goes to support him and his family then I believe that is not right.

well who knows I'm just speculating...
but I'm sure some people that follow him will find that a bit strange and perhaps unethical.

He is working! He ministers and organises events etc - and for that he receives a salary! What is wrong with that?

You are making blind allegations based on assumptions and without any foundation!

All ministers, vicars etc get a wage, why should he be any different, just because you don't like his style of ministering!

There are many threads on here about his freeloading lifestyle, organising Sloshfests and junket trips to America all costing more than any "NORMAL" minister would receive in wages and in any case he is NOT an ordained minister, he woke up one morning from one of his drug induced stupors and decided I'm gonna be a minister. thus was born a moneymaking cult founded on the belief (his belief) that he could cure cancer and grow new legs for amputees like Steve. This is one such thread (the links are very revealing and will be rubbished as usual by the usual suspects on here!!! lol

[Peter Plunker]

[Livia]

With all the free money sloshing around the country, people picking up luxury lifestyles paid for by the taxpayer, single-parents being paid by the government to sit on their lazy ar5es watching Jeremy Kyle instead of supporting their own kids, the very richest people in society being allowed to pay hardly any tax because they have accountants who know all the loopholes... I'm surprised you're mad at Dave. I think Keeley had a bloody nerve to ask him how he makes his money after speaking to him for ninety seconds. How ill-mannered.
