I wished in that regard to have more current information, may be someone does, but my "analysis"/"prophe-see" is fairly simple: as TF is so wrong in their biblical foundation, their
relating day to day life to biblical realities/teachings, also or especially regarding finances/funds (e.g. Paul says, he that doesn't work with his hands should not eat...tithing is OT/mosaic reality & simply can't relate to the NT-believers...even more so being of gentile "origin", & that stupid "gospel" of affluence is really another concoction of some evangelists, wolves in sheep's clothing who were again short of funds to build another "cathedral" no one really needs)...I simply predict, that nothing of their wishful thinking...meaning affluence...has panned out.It's actually one thing (again), were TF jumped on the bandwagon...for the "gospel of affluence" has been around longer, than their own spin of things...if my memory & info is right.
IT's a shame, that they betrayed also that beautiful part of real gospel life & that is to live as simple as possible, rather helping the needy & the needy doesn't mean WS with their stupid pubs.
So if world finances go through some very painful
"moments"...people driven by lust not real needs...well, people will then tend to give less also to TF and may be even their deluded bigger donors suffered losses...at least that was a timeless constant within TF, the appeals to donate more & that they are financially tight...blah, blah.
Sure, if you finance a lot of people with weird
projects, then it's just evident, that it can't pan out sooner or later...there is no real blessing in it... & I rather have a simple lifestyle than the devil's blessing of wordly/earthly affluence...
