Police arrested mega-church pastor Creflo Dollar Jr. on simple battery charges in Fayette County on Friday. Dollar is known for his controversial teachings of Prosperity theology.
Channel 2’s Tom Jones learned that Dollar was booked into the county jail at 2 a.m. A judge set Dollar’s bond at $5,000 during a morning hearing.Investigator Brent Rowan with the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office says deputies responded to a call of domestic violence at the home around 1 a.m. Friday.
Rowan says the 50-year-old pastor and his daughter were arguing over whether she could go to a party when Dollar “got physical” with her, leaving her with “superficial injuries.”
Dollar faces misdemeanor charges of simple battery and cruelty to children.
Last year Creflo Dollar was widely criticized for telling EddieLong’s New Birth defectors to return back to their church.
Dollar is the founder and senior pastor of World Changers Church in College Park. The church has nearly 30,000 members and includes satellite campuses in 10 cities. Dollar’s weekly services are broadcast across the country. Dollar and his wife, Taffi, have five children and live in Atlanta.
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing! |
O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts. |
They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made [others] to hope that they would confirm the word. |
¶ | Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I [am] against you, saith the Lord GOD. |
And mine hand shall be upon the prophets that see vanity, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the assembly of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord GOD. |
Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and [there was] no peace; |
