Taking Advantage of the Vulnerable
Evangelical pastors and so-called healers everywhere need to stop lying to their congregations about politics, health, and even about Christianity. Some things are matters of life and death. I have been reading too many lies coming out of Nigeria about the Ebola virus. It is not easy to contract Ebola and the so-called cures being claimed by so-called healers are deceptive and propelled by insensitivity and the desire for fame and wealth, I think. One of those claims is asking people to drink warm salt water daily to prevent Ebola. Nigerians are already being killed in large numbers daily by high blood pressure and other diseases that are made worse by salt. Now their evangelical pastors and other so-called healers are telling them to consume more salt! Incredible stuff!
