Rev. Ike dead ! He knows how to bribe St. Peter at the Gate


Rev. Ike died, 74 yrs old. I havent heard much about him, he was big in the 1970's appearing on UHF tv stations (there was VHF for very high frequency, the standard antenna, and then UHF for ultra high freq which was a smaller round antenna on the back of the set). He was a showman, with his ornate gowns, his slicked back hair, his makeup face. He preached self help, God is within you, to a black audience. His message of getting rich, believing in yourself, made him rich, I am not so sure about his congregants. The photo is of his rolls royce, car, and his church was in a theater that was built like a palace back in the 1930's, a real historical landmark. here is inside the church some pictures and description of his ministry.
