Dollar’s salary is not known, but according to The New York Times, Dollar’s New York church rakes in $4 million annually and his Atlanta operation has an $80 million annual operating budget.
The Bible says; “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’”
It is the love of money, and not money itself, that is the problem. The love of money is a sin because it gets in the way of worshipping God. Jesus said it was very hard for rich people to enter the Kingdom of God. When the rich young ruler asked Jesus what he should do to inherit eternal life, Jesus told him to sell all his possessions and give the money to the poor. We are to serve God, not waste our time trying to become rich.
