contrast the usual whitewashed puff piece about “The Secret Millionare” from “christianity” Today with Herescope’s indepth analysis of what “The Secret Millionaire” is really about!
False Profit$ always mix some truth in with a lot of leaven. The majority of today’s do it first on the backs of the “christian” TV channels and they always have a complete “product” range for the gullible to spend their hard earned money on!
The “christian” TV channels likewise never wanting to be left out of the “new thing” God is supposedly doing gobble it all up, even if the new Profit$ roasts them a bit as well!
Here is a clue for you of a person’s real intent! If they were truly of God, then they would COMPLETELY distance themselves from false ministries and they would ALWAYS point people to God and his word instead of their own very profitable product range!
DANI JOHNSON: New Age Converging with New Apostolic
By Gaylene Goodroad*
Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon earth…But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. ~ Matt. 6:19-20 [1]
“Your heathen competitors, your heathen competitors, my brothers and sisters in the marketplace are out there collecting all those profits and where are they taking it? Into the kingdom of darkness of pornography and greed and gluttony and lust and seduction. But God, if He can trust you with that money and you have the skill sets to do it, then guess what? That money is coming into the kingdom of heaven and building and developing the kingdom of heaven.” ~ Dani Johnson [2]
WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?
Dani Johnson, author, motivational speaker, relationship expert, life coach, finance guru, preacher—and self-made multimillionare, will appear on the season premiere of ABC’s Secret Millionaire on Sunday, March 6, following promotional interviews earlier in the week on Good Morning America, and The View.[3] With the help of several notable televangelists, The Elijah List, the blogosphere, social media, fellow business experts—and even Oprah Winfrey—Johnson has used her notoriety, wealth, and popularity to influence millions with her unique brand of what she calls her marketplace ministry. [4]
FROM WELFARE TO WEALTH
The inspiration for this phenomenon can be traced to her checkered past that she recounts before megacrowds the world over, with candid boldness, raw emotion and riveting charisma. Born to abusive, drug-addicted, unbelieving, and impoverished parents, Johnson sought acceptance and recognition. Her parents, wanting more control over their teen, sent her to a Christian school when she was 13, where she found a compassionate teacher with a leaning ear. After a chapel meeting a few weeks later, she began weeping following the message. Someone asked her if she “wanted to meet Jesus,” and she said yes. “He became my safe place, He became my one thing, He became my strong Tower. Then I met Christians… Christians who love you when you’re perfect, but when you screw up, man you’re an outcast.”[5]
Johnson became pregnant at 17, but was forced to give up her child by (whom she considered) unforgiving, judgmental, and manipulative church leaders, who caused her to walk away from Christ.
“I paid because of the manipulation of church leadership… there was a pain and a suffering that went on for fourteen years…. I found myself walking away from God at 18. If I have to be like your people, I want nothing to do with them—nothing to do with You. Your people suck…. I went head first into the whole metaphysical world…. I found unconditional people in the metaphysical world. Then I came to the end of what that had to offer.”[6]
In the next three years, Johnson found some material success as a young entrepreneur. Then following a 7-day courtship with a man, she married him and moved to Hawaii. Sadly, her new husband turned out to be a conman who left her homeless and several thousands of dollars in credit card debt. Depressed, suicidal and penniless, Johnson became a cocktail waitress and substance abuser, just like the parents she despised. At a work party, Johnson snorted a line of cocaine for the first time; marijuana, alcohol, and immorality followed. The next morning, she found herself craving another line of cocaine, but could not obtain any—so she went for a swim in the ocean. Coming out of the water, a miracle occurred. “After a month of being homeless, I had a wild thing happen to me on a beach Christmas Day. I heard a voice that said, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’”[7]
During a May, 2010 message that Johnson preached at Hillsong, UK, she recounted the same testimony where she clarified that the voice she heard “was the voice of the Lord. I didn’t know it at the time, but it was clearly the voice of the Lord….”[8] After rolling up her beach mat, Johnson’s ministry officially began. “ I started a business from the trunk of my car and a pay phone booth. And my very first year, I had made a quarter of a million dollars. My second year, I made one million dollars. This all happened by the time I was 23 years of age.”[9]
I want to prove to you that what I’m talking about [financial success] is absolutely scriptural. You see, God has His laws set up, and they are laws of success. Clearly, He did not develop you and me so you could fail. That’s not the heart of God…. See I have a dream to raise people up and equip the saints to succeed wildly so they are a force that must be reckoned with…. We set up danijohnson.com, it was like ‘Lord we want to win souls.’ We want to go to the lost and bring them in to the kingdom of heaven….”
Johnson’s marketplace ministry, however, would take place in the world—and outside of the established church. . . . .
She also claims that her prolific ministry has eclipsed the role of the traditional church. . . . . . .
She has even mocked the money preachers publicly.[23] Why then does she continue to appear on their programs—to promote herself and her products? Here is a partial list of guest spots she’d done in the past three years: Hillsong’s (U.K.) Brian and Bobbie Houston, TBN’s Paul Crouch Jr., Benny Hinn, Morris Cerullo, and Paula White; CBN’s Pat Robertson, and Daystar’s Marcus and Joni Lamb.[24] Could this be an “infiltration” to a higher order? . . . . . . .
