I was expecting an 'old time religion' sermon but no, I saw a sleek bouffant haired presumably failed car salesman telling bible stories. No particular charisma, why is he so popular.

I used to work in printing and would deal with these preachers all the time and they were usually the most miserable self-obsessed people you ever met.

The salvation thing most probably was/is a mechanism to keep the flock in line and thus more riches to the preachers - There is no such thing as salvation.....at least not for the preachers, no matter what religion
