The Holy Spirit told him the real reason he wanted an explosive church growth. He said, “I refuse bringing people to your church because your intention for wanting more people is to increase the finances of your church!
He told him: “My church is not a business venture to boost your ego and make more money for yourself. It is a hospital on the way to heaven. I want to use the church to treat the sick…
