Recall that reports were made that Jesse Duplantis had said God told him to tell his congregation to get him a new private plane, Falcon 7X.
Kirk, in an Instagram post, encouraged other Christians to stand up to injustices perpetrated by other Christians in the church.
His post: “This is Jessie Duplantis. A televangelist who has 3 planes, and is now telling us that Jesus wants us to buy him another one.
“I’m posting this because now that we see popular culture stand up to the injustices in mainstream society, I believe the church should do the same for its own as well. We should take the lead when there is an abuse of power that affects our message to the masses, our silence can be as loud as the bigotry and racism we see in the public square.
“Many of these ministries built their wealth on the backs of poor rural minorities that put their trust in the hands of God’s shepherds only to see the prosperity benefit those doing the preaching.
“Again, there are great Christian leaders, and there is nothing wrong with having a plane, but if the burden falls on the less fortunate and greed is the check written by those drowning in socio-economic rivers of systemic disparities, God is not flying that plane.“
