I know I’m joining in on this late but in a book I read recently it quoted a woman who saw one of these American “health and wealth” preachers in her country where she is risking her life daily to be a follower and said “do I not have enough faith because I am poor”…it broke my heart…

We are missionaries in Guatemala for the past 22 years. I stand in the NT Church office of an Apostle. There is a difference between that office and that of the original 12.

The prostituting of the Gospel is appalling and when I hear someone preach the wealth and health message I shudder. Yes the Lord provides for us and wants us to live in health, but not to make profit from his Gospel. We are to live humbly before Him and to trust him to meet our needs. We can says with King David, that we have never been forsaken or had our seed begging bed.

Balaam (the one with the talking donkey) followed after money.
Look where that got him.

Colossians says to think on things above not on things of the earth. (smart thing to do now that the rapture in imminent)

Jesus said to sell your stuff and give to the poor and you’ll have money in heaven. Have you visited a jail? Call up a prison ministry and ask if you can go the next weekend they can take you.

Give a cup of water in God’s name and it’s written down.

Store up treasure on earth and it’ll go poof.

You don’t neeed a million dollars for spreading the Gospel, you need OBEDIANCE based on the Holy Spirit not some fleshly man-made concept of riches. Most westerners are under the spell of Mammon and most ‘blab it and grab it’ followers.
follow Paul’s example,he worked, he got beat up , he got shipwrecked and he did miracles hmmm which lead to the spread of the Good News. Hmmm I don’t see todays self-proclaimed apostles and evangelists in the lear jets suffering too much for their faith. When they start getting shot or stabbed or mobbed for Christ then I will see the validity of their actions, not in some big comfy mega-church.

Jesus said it and it sums it up so well, He said the “Love of Money” is the root of all evil, and he said, “You cannot serve God and mammon”.

I have read your interesting comments. So am I to understand that God does not want man to prosper and live an abundant life? Or, are you just referring to a misuse of scripture in these two cases?

The bible does say that the just shall live by faith and that God is no respecter of persons (meaning that he’ll do for one as he will for another). Therefore, if I believe that he will empower me to get wealth based on my faith; is it wrong. I only ask because “without faith its impossible to please God”. If God is not pleased with you, why would he work on your behalf?

And lastly, Jesus said that we would do greater things than He. If that’s true, why wouldn’t financial means be part of the equation? You can reach more people with the gospel if you have a million dollars than you could with a thousand. The blessings of God include prosperity. How can you expect one to have hope and believe if there is no evidence of that shown in the lives of those delivering the Word?

Isn’t there a Bible verse we are to live, about presenting the Gospel or teaching others what the Bible says, without cost?
(before you missunderstand that, I do believe and practice tithing)

Hey, I’m all for wealth transfer to the true Christians, I think there’s
a precident or two in the Bible as well. But the fact of the matter is it’s more likely
the Rapture will take place very soon and we should be telling others about Christ, not making plans to grab fists full of money “when” it comes.
Plus, to actually charge people to attend lectures on this and live luxuriously on the proceeds, seems wrong on many levels.

Why don’t they have a real job, and do this as a free ministry
on the side if they feel this is God’s calling for them?
Of course we know the answer.

If there was a true 100% prophet today the “Church” would string him up and kill him. Satan tempted Jesus with 3 things; recognition, wealth and identity…ummm so what are they/you/me being tempted by??
