Now along came a man who approached a popular televangelist with the question, "Teacher, what good thing shall I do in order to have eternal life?"
The televangelist replied, "If you want to enter into life keep the commandments."The young man replied, "I have kept all these. Where do I fall short?"
The televangelist said to him, "If you want to be perfect, go and give thanks for all you have, send a tenth of it to me, and you will have even greater treasure on earth."
When the young man heard this he went away with great joy, because he already had great wealth and the televangelist had promised him even more.

Such is the delusion of popular health-wealth teaching which is foisted upon naive and unsuspecting people. If we want the truth on this parody, it is found in Matthew 19:16-26.
