Go & preach that to the rich people
You love money more than salvation, even more than your life
Of course wealth is a blessing but the pastor should know that his kind of wealth could be a curse - (because) he is no more than a confidence trickster
So by your analogy riches is blessings and poverty is a curse.Not your fault because poor people have contributed one one cedi for you to build a business empire why won't you say you are blessed
Exactly his point, bro. God, even dislikes the poor. The reason? Get your arse to work and make it comfortable in life for yourselves. Yes, riches is a blessing and poverty a nuisance indeed.

This self acclaimed man of God is very stupid for saying that.
Will Mr Otabil tell us how much he's made after all those years of collecting offerings and tithes from his congregation. Plsase, declare your assets
I think you would do your self a whole lot of good to express your view on the subject, than to insult please.
For once, this preacher man is telling it straight. That's more like it, Otabil.
This kind of preaching by seeing money like good to have but poverty is a curse is sending many Ghanaian youth into sawaka blood money. If you gain all the money in the world and you lose your life.... The Christian council m ...

Jesus said it is easier for a horse to pass through an eye of a sewing needle than for a rich man to go into the kingdom of God. Is this pastor preaching Christ or devil.
Did he talk about how to get it? - no. So don't put words in his mouth. He just said money is not bad thing but he didn't say go get it in the bad ways.
Like somebody will say be a parent is good. It didn't mean go steal so ...

He did not tell anyone to go do sarawak. People work and get paid but these who steal are sent to jail. All he saying is just try to lift yourself up. Don't settle for less.

Otabil is always defending capitalism in various ways. He does not want to agree that capitalism has turned Ghana into a country of poor and suffering people. Socialism under Nkrumah was far better than capitalism which has ...

By their fruits we shall know them. You see when the gospel is turned into a money making enterprise this is how it ends. After using the congregation to make his millions this is what he is now preaching from his pulpit. Th ...

Honourable Mr Pastor Otabil if you happen to read this please try and respond.
The non-thinking and mediocre Ghanaians have enabled all these quack men of god to fleece the poor and illiterate in the name of making it to heaven. In this modern day and age there are more churches sprouting up in Ghana th ...

Money is good and the love of money is the begging of all evils.
So Dr. Pastor Otabil is wiser than King Solomon, who said riches are vanity of vanities and the vexation of the spirit? Ecclesiastes 1:14
Otabil is wiser than the Lord Jesus who said " a man's life does not consist in the ...

Solomon couldn't control the blessings of God Abraham and Joseph did and that is the difference. You need the divine understanding of the written word not just the english to the detriment of your own soul
No wonder with such kind of preaching many youth go into occult sakawa money. When is some pastors going to preach salvation instead of prosperity money and nothing else?
Learn from that great man and your life will be change or you can add something precious to your life. If Ghana give him the chance he can fix the dumsor disease.
What did Jesus preach about money? He said - woe to the rich for you have received your comfort already. OTABIL has to be careful with this preaching. Money can be good or bad.
Abraham was rich by serving God. Otabil is rich by serving the same God.
Do study your Bible well. 2/3 of the parables of Jesus were about wealth. Wealth which in those days was measured in gold, silver, slaves, etc is the most singular talked about topic in the Bible. Dr otabil didn't tell anyone ...

Ghana is a Blessed country from North to South. We have so many Poor People. Because of the society.The Government don't care of the citizens. Look what is going on with idiot Mahatma
We have so many Pastors in Ghana. Every Pastor is doing what She or He like.
Such self glorified pastors are turning the gospel upside down. why did Jesus admonise the rich man to sell all his properties and give the wealth to the poor if the rich man wants to inheret Gods kingdom?
Money is nothing doesn't mean money is bad, they compared it to spiritual blessing from God, so money is nothing to be dying for, instead waiting on God to open your doors other do any possible things to get money rather than ...

I don't think any rich person will say that money isn't good if the person makes his/her genuinely. Even the poor will not say that money is not good. Nonetheless, money is not everything. To me, having money without Jesus C ...

We need money for almost everything. Think about it and let us all try to understand the intent of the preacher and learn what we can from this great man.
Believe him and chase money and you will see the help in it's chasing.1Timothy 6:10.
People money is good and poverty is a disease
It saddens me to hear you talk like that: not only glorifying the real DEVIL as good but also equating the possession of the DEVIL to the opposite of poverty. Do you really UNDERSTAND what you are saying? What is poverty? Abs ...

If a preacher ask who want to b poor in life at church service, do u see anyone hand up?
Liars like Rawlings says money is not good, but before he realized he was accepting bribe. Funny!!
