100 Highly Paid Ministry Leaders Revealed (Franklin Graham Makes How Much?)
MinistryWatch is an organization designed to empower donors to Christian ministries. They do this by “profiling public Christian charities, churches, and parachurch ministries” and then reporting on the results to “limit consequences of scams and prevention of fraudulent activity, promote better allocations of giving, encourage intelligent questions of organizational structure, financial health, and advance the idea of organizational transparency and best practices.”
They’ve recently released their list of the 100 Highly Paid Ministry Leaders, which is a difficult task given how incomplete it is. They note:
We are not calling this list the “Highest Paid Christian Ministry Executives” because we know that many pastors and other church leaders who might make more are not on this list, because churches are not required to make their Form 990s available to the public.
Also, MinistryWatch has identified a growing trend among Christian ministries to identify as churches and thereby withhold their Form 990s.
Accordingly, only organizations with some degree of transparency have made the list and not the Kenneth Copeland or Steven Furticks of the world. These leaders also do not include anyone in our article Top 10 Highest Paid Christian University/ College Employees (Number 4 Makes $3,833,429), which is a different design altogether.
Some of the organizations that have either partnered with churches, or changed their designnation to identify on paper as ‘churches,’ thus enabling them to withhold their form 990 include “CRU/Campus Crusade for Christ, The Navigators, Gideons International, Willow Creek Association, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, Joyce Meyer Ministries, Denison Forum, and Ethnos360/New Tribes Mission.”
MinistryWatch lastly notes that “In the case of Franklin Graham, only his Samaritan’s Purse compensation is listed. He also serves as president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. Because BGEA does not file a Form 990, we were not able to determine what compensation he receives from BGEA.”
Furthermore, “while the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is not an evangelical organization, but the organization advertises extensively on Christian radio and television, and a significant amount of its $271-million revenue (2023) comes from evangelicals, so we have included this organization in our survey. Prager University is also not a Christian organization but, again, it gets much of its $68-million revenue (2023) from evangelicals.”

Disgraceful. But what’s worse is that those Zionist organizations are even allowed to exist. It should be illegal to be a Zionist. Gentiles are the chosen people. The Jews were cast off for killing Christ. Until you support Zionism and Judaism being made illegal and all Zionists and Jews being deported (ironically to Israel) and all foreign aid to Israel being cut off and all politicians who argue we should give Israel money being jailed and flogged, then you are a traitor to Christ.
Invert reality much? (Is 5:20)
Woe to you because Jews are evil and their book the Talmud teaches rabbis to rape young boys until 1 day after their 9th birthday. Defending Judaism or Jews is defending Satan. Plus God destroyed the Jewish nation once and for all in 70 AD, and for good measure again in 120 AD. Not one Jew survived. Everyone calling themselves “Jews” today are merely criminals against God hiding out in a Satanic “religion” who have 0 genetic link to the ancient Jews anyway. They are all scum and vile trash as are all of their supporters.

If you haven’t read the Bible all the way through, it says the Israelites (the Jews) are God’s chosen people. He loves them, and He is not done with them. He preserved His Word (the Bible) through them. In the book of Genesis, God promised the land (much more land than where Israel’s borders are now) to the Jews (the sons of Jacob, renamed by God to the name Israel). This hatred of the Jews is nothing more than Satanic.
