Preacher Jesse Duplantis Asks Followers To Help Him Buy A $54 Million Jet

Gospel preacher Jesse Duplantis really wants a jet, and is asking followers to help him pay for it.

Duplantis has his eyes on a $54 million Falcon 7X private jet. This would not be his first jet, he has owned three other jets but he said that he is “burning them up for the lord,” therefore needing a new one to replace them.

Many people have criticized him for his desires for the luxury aircraft. However, he believes he needs it to reach as many people as he can. “I really believe that preachers ought to go on every available voice, every available outlet, to get this gospel preached to the world,” he says on his web series This Week with Jesse.

Duplantis says that God asked him to believe he would provide the private jet. “Jesse, I didn’t ask you to pay for it. I asked you to believe for it,” he says God said to him.

He also made the claim that, “If Jesus was physically on the earth today, he wouldn’t be riding a donkey.”

Since his request for money for the jet, the pastor has experienced a big backlash from the Christian community.

Duplantis has not commented further about his request.
