A toothache and sore throat are keeping us up late tonight, so we idly switched over to TBN to see what was going on in the world of wacky word-faith. Theres Juanita Bynum in a white robe, surrounded by men and women dressed all in black. Some interesting notes:

• You need to send a thousand dollars. If you cant send a thousand, send five hundred if all you have is a nickel, wrap it in tissue and put it in an envelope. If all you have is your clothes, send them.
• If you want the power, you have to sow the seed [clearly referring to sending her money in context]. (See Acts 8 below.)
• Were going together into a spirit of wealth.
• Last night, you sowed to your ability. Tonight, you sow beyond your ability.
• I need [to give] because I need favor. I need it because I need an anointing. I need it because I need power. (Her speaking for the people who give to her tonight.)
• Im giving because I want my daughters to be daughters of Zion. (Again speaking for those who are giving to her.)
• Youve got three days to get that into your mailbox. Im not afraid to say this. I am walking in my authority if you dont postmark it by the tenth, we will not accept it. [Id like confirmation of that.] God says you have three days to get your thousand-dollar seed in the mail.
• Give it to me and you will live. Give it to me and you will have more than enough. (She claims to be speaking for the Lord, actually.)
• If all you have is $79.36, I double-dare you to empty your bank account. Close your account.

Compare Acts 8:

Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was bestowed through the laying on of the apostles hands, he offered them money, saying, Give this authority to me as well, so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit. But Peter said to him, May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money! You have no part or portion in this matter, for your heart is not right before God. Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray the Lord that, if possible, the intention of your heart may be forgiven you. For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity.
