Brian Houston lies about the bible to sell his book
Hillsong Churchs leader Brian Houston has lied on Television in an effort to sell a few more books.
While selling his book “Money” he quotes from the bible saying “why does the bible say let the poor say I am rich”
These words came out of a Hillsong song called “Let the weak say I am strong ” which was stolen from a poem called “Give Thanks” by Henry Smith
When you cant trust the leader to tell the truth how can you trust them with your soul.

How completely arrogant!. So just move on?… nothing to see here?.. just allow them and those like them to CONTINUE extorting money from people, and more importantly to continue leading unsuspecting, deceived souls down the wide road to perdition? Are you serious lynds? You are in favour of allowing their deception to continue? Focus on something else? Look the other way? Turn a blind eye? Do you have any idea how evil such a concept is? Whether you realise it or not lynds, you are aiding and abetting in their crime – and that is what it is – and you will, if you continue without repentance, share also in its judgement.
In Christ.

The church is promised spiritual blessings in Christ not money blessing. Having money is not an evidence of a good christian walk. Many non christians and false christian organsiations have plenty of money. God requires obedience for blessing. Thats what Jesus loves. The bible does say that if we obey and trust God we will always have enough, not only for ourselves but also to help others. That is a beautful promise unlike the Devils lie that you lots of money to help God, perpertrated by Brian Houston. That kind of teaching whether he says so or not leads to the love of money and a false idea of what walking in obedience is.
I would urge any one who believe this prosperity doctrine to examine your heart and see why you are buying into it. Truely dear believers put your faith in Christ and your hope in eternity.

They are all liars and thieves, they are constantly shown up by their fake miracles, their lying gospel of greed, their anti-Christian life-styles based on sex and materialism. What a bunch of liars AoG leaders laying hands on Tod Bentley and blessing him for his wonderful work in God, Mike Gugliamucci, so much for Brian Houston’s spiritual discernment… running round the world thinking they are important – what a bunch of charlatans. Recently left my money grubbing tithe till you drop church for a better place.

Hmm, the whole “let the weak say ‘I am strong’” isn’t stolen from the hymn, THAT is in the Bible in Joel 3:10, but the ‘Let the poor say “I am rich’” is NOT, that is from a hymn and not from the Bible, definitely a liar.
Andy Taylor, please don’t go saying they are ALL liars and thieves etc, the majority probably are but you really shouldn’t generalise brother, gotta be careful with that.

Hi all,
i’m very happy when I found this site. The banner “There is money in Jesus” seems to be the answer to my prayer. It’s a confirmation from God. But this site articles contain bitterness and a bias of a group of people. This is very an unfortunate situation for them. If you are discouraged by reading the articles on this site, please ask Holy Spirit for guidance. Please be courages. Don’t set your eyes on people and don’t just trust on media as it can be manipulative.
I’m not a fan of Brian or Bobbie Houston nor their Hillsong brand. If Illuminaty (secret society/satan worshippers that want to destory Jesus churches) can sponsor a lot of major catastrophic events, conspiracies and give material wealth to most of secular politicians, businessman, drug dealers and etc. Why not for people who sacrifies a lot for the work of Jesus’s Kingdom on earth?. Also, God promises in Isaiah 1:19 says “If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the best from the land”.
Media criticises Christians when they become successful. Why? because media is used by illuminaty indirectly.
So, please don’t be discouraged if you read articles on this sites. The world is under satan control. satan can destroy church buildings, pastors reputation and so on but it can’t destroy us as a living testimony, the living and real church.
If you are leaving your church and turn your back against Jesus, trust me, sex, drugs, wealth and other things that the world offers can’t fill the emptinees of your heart that can only be filled with the unconditional love of Jesus Christ.
For whoever setup this site, I want to say a big thank you that your site confirms that yes, there is money in Jesus name. there is God provision in un-certain circumstances. but only “if you are willing and obidient”. I will pray for you so that God will show Himself to you like He did to apostle Paul before he repented.
Let me leave you with a poem.
“To believe in Jesus, it costs you nothing.
To follow Jesus, it costs you something.
To become like Jesus, it costs you everything.”
I praise God for giving Hillsong and other pentacostal churhes with the wisdom and ‘marketing’ knowledge. it shows that God can do more than what other corporate marketing can. Yes, non-believers get very jealous with this rapid and massive growth.
Please pray for the people who claims that they were ‘kicked out’ from a church so that they can release their bitterness and move on, so that they will only come to Jesus for healing and restoration. Going public won’t heal any body.
I wonder if any ‘churches’ that put Jesus as the central message every weeka but doesn’t grow, then something is really wrong.
Keep praying for one another and God bless you all.

I am not the one judging. Brian Houston is condemned by his own words..
and I am just repeating his words for all to see..
When Brian tries to tell you the bible says “let the poor say I am rich” he is lying as no verse exists and he is saying anything to sell his book.
“If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed” (Galatians 1:9)
“In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up” 2 Pet 2:3 [NIV]

Hi Lorrane,
I think the main issue here is not about judging, it’s about holding our Christian brothers and sisters accountable. Being critical of false teaching in the church is something that we are called to do by God. It is a vital act to keep the church focused on God above all else.

Pastor Brian can use information from any source as long as he is using it to the glory of God.
Help him be a better Minister, by talkng with him showing him a way to go about things becz we are one anothers keeper. If you cant trust him with your soul then dont stay under his umbralla.
Carol, Zambiaof God is a Kingdom of shearing, as a result stor Brian has the right to use information

What bothers me is people don’t see the truth about what Brian Houston is preaching. Quote’ If you say you don’t need money that you already have enough. Then i say you have a very poor out look on life.: Hmm strange My bible teaches me the love of money is the ROOT of all evil. Jesus , Paul, Peter, They were never rich. Funny, how some of the poorest people on earth are the happiest and have seen God work more miracles in thier lives.The dependance is not on MONEY as MR Houston would say. They live on souly depending on God and NOT MONEY.Open yoru eyes people Brian Houston is spreading the Wrong Jesus that is preached in the bible. I have seen people give up everthing to serve GOD. Jesus even tells a Rich young ruller to give up all his possessions and serve him. That totaly contradicts what Brian Houston preaches.

I had first hand experience of being part of Hillsong. I attended the church in london and as a person of 16 at the time it all seemed incredibly appealing. This was not my first experience of church, My whole family are christians. I found a friendship group, a new spiritual out look on life and for the first time I had found hope in humanity. This was not to last though. I gave extensive amounts of money to the church through purchasing bibles, books, CDs and tshirts (also not forgetting donations). All of this to feel more a part of what I thought was my family. I was a musician and was told I had a gift from God and that I should utilize that to help win others over to christ. the problems began as the years went on. I became more involved not just on a sunday but almost every day of the week. Soon I was working more then I was sleeping but I was being told that this was all for God. I finished college and soon after was following my dreams (like I had been taught). this started to take up more of my time so I started to drop some of my commitments with the church, as soon as I had done so suddenly I had fingers pointed at me. I was ‘backsliding’ and I was told to quit my dreams. If I frowned during a service or failed to smile then it looked bad on the others. I was now being told how to think and feel. The less time I spent at the church the more I was shunned by those that had called me their ‘family’. I soon found out people were talking about me behind my back. I felt judged and my relationship with God died. I finally found the courage to leave but it wasn’t easy. My heart felt broken and my soul felt crushed. I had put so much time, money and effort into the church, I was 100% committed, I gave my heart and soul only for it to be thrown back at me. I still feel nervous every time I pass the theatre where they hold their services. It’s safe to say I will never go back to that place nor will I ever support an organization that treats their members this way. I have not been the only one who has gone through these experiences. I have met others who have very similar stories.
