Jesus Specifically Warned Against Stealing from Widows!"

Many local Churches take in over a million dollar per year, building massive buildings to only be used a few hours a week.

Many Radio & Television Ministries take in millions of dollars per year! Quite a number take in $100 million-dollars per year, several take in over $200 million-dollars-per-year!

* * * Some Christian Ministries actually take in $1,000,000 every single day. * * *

Most Americans KNOW these "TV Celebrity Preachers" are making MULTI-MILLION-DOLLAR Incomes, living in MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR homes, and own MULTIPLE SUCH HOMES all over the country. They ride in "Chauffeur Driven Limousines" and own fleets of expensive cars.

What most Americans DON'T KNOW is that these MEDIA KINGDOMS are often built upon "The WIDOWS MITE"!

TARGETING WIDOWS! "HOW" Churches Are Stealing The Widows Mite!

Stealing The Widows Mite?

So how are Churches Stealing it so easily and so consistently? THEY "PSYCHOLOGICALLY TARGET WIDOWS!"

Have you ever been driving down the road, surfing channels on the radio, "happen across" some Media Minister and wonder to your self: "Who listens to this DULL, BORING STUFF?"

Have you ever noticed the "OLD SAD MUSIC" they often play?

Why is this?

Shock! Shock! Media ratings show that the most dominant group of Americans who listen to Media Ministry is Elderly Widows!

The reason these Media Ministries don't play Hip-Hop & Pop Music is that they are not trying to reach YOU! They are trying to reach the Elderly Widows!

Thus they use the MUSIC that Elderly Widows! prefer to listen to. They tell stories and use illustrations that Elderly Widows relate to.

WHY DO THEY TARGET ELDERLY WIDOWS? They want "The Widows Mite" and they KNOW HOW they can get it!

USING CIRCUMSTANCES! "HOW" Ministries Are Stealing The Widows Mite!

Stealing The Widows Mite?

So how are Churches Stealing it? The ANSWER is found in the CIRCUMSTANCES of most Widows who are giving their LAST MITE!

Elderly Widows, by reason of age, are lonely. They have out-lived many of their friends. In almost all cases, they outlive their husbands by several years.

Elderly Widows, by reason of circumstances, are EASY PREY FINANCIALLY, as many are isolated, no longer drive. So, they don't get out much, and this adds to their loneliness, leaving them with "TV & Radio" for friends.

Elderly Widows, by reason of frailty are fearful of many things. One often observes their homes. "When the Sun goes down, Widows often draw their window-blinds, close their curtains, lock their door with multiple locks."

Thus these widows - elderly, frail, lonely, fearful & somewhat "shut-in" - are PRIME TARGETS for TV Hucksters. These HUCKSTERS know that the world at large is NOT catering to these Widows: they are "out-of-sight", "out-of-mind", "out-of-touch"!

The PSYCHOLOGY of Widows: How Churches Today Are Stealing The Widows Mite!

Stealing The Widows Mite?

So how are Churches Stealing it? By using Psychology! "The PSYCHOLOGY of Widows and The Widows Mite! is perhaps not as obvious as their CIRCUMSTANCES, but project yourself into their situation.

Most Elderly Widows have the circumstances previously mentioned. They have outlived many of their friends, their husbands, and in some cases, even their children.

Failing health, fragile attitude, fearful of circumstances, fretting the future and "Feeling life slipping away day by day", it is quite normal for them to FOCUS on DEATH and their loved-ones who have ALREADY PASSED ON!

What lies beyond the Grave? It is EASY for Elderly Widows to BELIEVE their "Beloved Spouses" of 40, 50, 60 years or more - ARE ALIVE SOMEWHERE!

It is EASY for Elderly Widows - to "Dream of a Far-Away-Land" where we "Never Grow Old!" - here their is neither Sickness nor Sorrow, neither Crying nor Pain, where DEATH WILL NEVER AGAIN rob the Elderly Widow of a loved one.

For the Elderly Widow, her Beloved Mother & Father are in this "Promised Land!", somewhere far "Beyond the Sunset". Her Beloved Grandparents are already there. Her Beloved Spouse is already there and WAITING: "Just Inside the Eastern Gate!"

Thus the Elderly Widow passes her long days and longer nights: looking at pictures of The Life-that-USED-TO BE, and dream of their departed loved-ones last words: "Till We Meet Again!"

Many actually get to the place in life where death becomes a welcomed thought! NO MORE Fear! NO MORE Pain! NO MORE Suffering!NO MORE Loneliness!

and . . . most of all, reconciliation with Family & Friends Forever!

The WORRY of Widows! How Churches Are Stealing The Widows Mite!

So how are Churches today Stealing The Widows Mite? By taking advantage of widow's natural spiritual worries.

Widows WORRY that they "Might not be GOOD ENOUGH to make it to Heaven!"

By nature, Elderly Widows are meek, timid, fearful, kind, and sweet! "Who is more wonderful than your aged Great-Grandmother?"

Thus by reason of their natural temperament, they are of "Tender Conscience" that is easily attacked by irrational guilt and sympathy. "What if I'm not GOOD ENOUGH for Heaven?" they worry day & night!

The Media Minister Hucksters know this and provoke the Worrying Widows, sowing seeds of fear-& doubt, REMINDING THEM CONSTANTLY, that the way to IMPRESS GOD & MAKE SURE you are on your WAY TO HEAVEN is as follows:

* * * GIVE Him your MONEY, as MONEY is what really matters!

* * * GIVE SACRIFICIALLY, for SACRIFICE greatly pleases God!

* * * GIVE to those who are HURTING, such as Ministries who care for the sick and starving [SO THEY WANT US TO THINK ! ! !]

* * * GIVE all you can give, and AFTER DEATH, Leave your HOUSE, leave your INSURANCE, leave your SAVINGS, leave your INVESTMENTS - ALL TO THE CHURCH!

* * * WHY?" B-E-T-T-E-R B-E S-A-F-E T-H-A-N S-O-R-R-Y the Hucksters tell them!

So in many cases, the WORRYING WIDOWS leave all of their worldly goods to their local Churches, in a 'Last-Great-Effort' to insure eternal life!

Thus by manipulation of the WORST KIND - making Elderly Widows feel FALSE GUILT, Churches Steal the Widows Mite - even the LAST ONE!

Christian Friend: Hopefully . . . You have NOT "Seen Yourself" Here!

You KNOW most denominations have full-time employees to visit the elderly, getting them to give away their Widow's Mite, even signing their houses over to Denominations & and leaving all of their inheritance.

Jesus strongly denounced "devouring the household's of Widows."

If you manipulate lonely widows for "Cash" each time you visit - SHAME ON YOU! Treat every Widow as you want your Mother to be treated: "Honored and Cared for" - not Used & Abused.

God bless your integrity.
