“If a church invites me to come and minister, they are doing two things. They are inviting me to minister to God and to His people.
“Let me just say this before I trend on Twitter. To my own understanding, when you tell me to minister to God, I can’t charge God to minister to Him.
“How much did He charge me for His blood on Calvary? The blood that is the very reason for my ministry. It’s a personal thing for me, and it has worked for me, so why leave what is working?”
