Peter Popoff uses what is called Prosperity Theology.

Prosperity theology or Prosperity doctrine is a doctrine commonly found in televangelists and pentecostal churches which claims God wants Christians to be successful in every way, especially in their finances. Proponents of this doctrine claim that its purpose is funding of preaching throughout the World, and is based largely on a bible verse which says, "God gives you the power to get wealth to establish his covenant." Critics, on the other hand, claim that the doctrine is used by its proponents to become wealthy at the expense of persons who give or that the doctrine's focus on material wealth is misguided.

I do use real people in my nation, like Peter Popoff but I mean NO OFFENSE or anything to anyone. Sorry if I have offended people.
