Dear Mishel,
I wish everyone, especially young adults could read these articles. I have been so grieved at the self-imposed poverty of these ministries. Only "ministry" work is esteemed and the realistic idea of getting an education, learning and perfecting a skill, working and earning a living is almost non-existent.
I believe these leaders draw people after themselves to build their grandeous visions all the while loudly preaching it is what the Holy Spirit is doing at the end of the age!
May the Lord Jesus DELIVER His gullible people from these devouring men!
They do prey mostly on the young. Idealistic young adults who desire to serve the Lord whole heartedly. I think it is the inward need for significance that makes one vulnerable to these manipulative, controlling, devouring ministries.
