Kiss of Debt
</hdr><body>
<p>By J.D. Reed
</p>
<p> Even for a faith healer, two miracles is a lot to ask. In
1987 televangelist Oral Roberts, 71, raised $4.5 million from
viewers after declaring that otherwise God would call him home.
Last week he announced that he would close his medical school
and hospital to aid in digging the ministry out of $25 million
in debts. He and son Richard, 40, will sell five Tulsa homes to
help out. "However spiritual one is," Roberts told his
followers, "you cannot do anything without money."
