Donald Trump, White House’s spiritual adviser Paula White ‘begs’ for money for God to fight coronavirus

Donald Trump and the White House’s spiritual adviser, Paula White, shockingly begged her supporters for money while the country is dealing with the coronavirus pandemic.

According to Raw Story, White used a Facebook prayer session as an opportunity to beg for money at a time when Americans are not even sure if they will be able to combat the deadly coronavirus both medically and financially.

More specifically, White asked for $91 from each of her supporters as a “seed” for her personal ministry. Political Flare criticized White for requiring payment for serious pruning.

“Her “seed” has grown to an oak. She would gain a ton of credibility if she was promising to give that money away to the desperately poor, who need more than prayers to get by. Of course, as rich as she surely is, she considers herself as one who is desperately poor, who needs a lot more than prayers to get by,” journalist Jason Miciak said.

White has claimed that her churches do so much but it is unclear what exactly they have been doing. The spiritual adviser has also claimed that her work is vitally important because they are a hospital for the sick.

Jefferson likened White and her church to pharmaceutical companies that make expensive medications that create more illnesses instead of trying to eradicate them.

“Christians are not by nature awful people. Most are quite the opposite. This woman is not a Christian, she’s a charlatan. And if there was an official entity in charge of kicking out false Christians, she would have the first file,” Miciak said.

Meanwhile, White also made headlines earlier this year after she reportedly said a prayer asking for the termination of all satanic pregnancies. Shortly after the criticisms she received, White claimed that her statement was taken out of context.

“I was praying Eph 6:12 that we wrestle not against flesh and blood. Anything that has been conceived by demonic plans, for it to be canceled and not prevail in your life. That is- any plans to hurt people. Let's be clear what is really going on... this is a disingenuous attempt to use words out of context for political gain. I will just keep praying!” she tweeted.
