Jesse Duplantis, a televangelist with viewers across the globe, says God told him he needs a new jet. Specifically, God told Duplantis he needs a Dassault Falcon 7X, a three-engine private jet capable of carrying 12 to 16 passengers at speeds up to 700 miles per hour.
The Falcon 7X, which would be the fourth plane owned by Jesse Duplantis Ministries, has a range of almost 6,000 miles and costs about $54 million new, according to SherpaReport (although used ones are listed online for as little as $20 million).
“Now, some people believe that preachers shouldn’t have jets,” Duplantis said in a video posted last week. “I really believe that preachers ought to … have every available outlet to get this Gospel preached to the world.”
In fact, Duplantis said that “if Jesus was physically on the Earth today, he wouldn’t be riding a donkey.”
“He’d be in an airplane preaching the Gospel all over the world,” he said.
aid God told him he needed the plane “in one of the ‘greatest statements the Lord ever told me.'”
“He said, ‘Jesse, you wanna come up where I’m at?'” according to Duplantis.
“And I said, ‘What do you mean?'”
“He said, ‘I want you to believe in me for a Falcon 7-X.”
“So, I said, ‘OK.’ But the first thing I thought of: ‘Well, how am I going to pay for it?'”
Duplantis said he then recalled something God told him in 1978. “‘Jesse, I didn’t ask you to pay for it, I asked to believe for it.'”
The preacher explained that he was interested in full transparency.
“I like all people to know exactly what I’m doing in this ministry,” Duplantis said. “We don’t hide nothing whatsoever at all.”
Duplantis explained that he wouldn’t personally own the plane. Rather, the plane would be owned by the ministry and would be used by the next person to take it over after his death.
God instructed Duplantis to “preach the Gospel to every creature,” he explained.
“Now how we gonna do that?” he asked. “I can’t live long enough to travel by car, or by ship, or by train, but I can do it by an airplane.” “All it’s gonna do is touch people,” Duplantis said of the plane. “It’s gonna reach people. It’s gonna change lives, one soul at a time. I don’t want to learn how to fly it, I’m not interested in that. I’m interested in preaching the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.”
