Faith movement © 1999-2021 Russian State Library We all want to prosper - financially, socially, physiologically. Indeed, God is interested in the welfare and prosperity of humanity, even after our first human parents sinned in Eden and lost the prosperity paradise (Genesis 2; 3). But what is the biblical view of prosperity now? Does Scripture Support the Modern Prosperity Gospel? I will briefly review the orig Essek William Kenyon's Books in Nigeria ins and impact of this teaching, highlight some of its pitfalls, and explore the biblical concept of prosperity. The prosperity gospel is the teaching that “believers are entitled to the blessings of health and wealth and that they can receive these blessings through positive confessions of faith and“ sowing seeds ”through faithful tithing and offerings.1” This teaching is supported by Christians who call The movement began during the decade after World War II in North America, when some Pentecostal preachers revived Essek William Kenyon's (1867-1948) theology of “mainstream faith,” which he borrowed from the metaphysical movement.2 These preachers presented faith as a force that, when expressed in the form of positive confessions, actualizes health, wealth and success in the life of a believer. Key among the revivalists was Oral Roberts (1918–2009), influencing others such as A. Allen (1911–1970), Kenneth Hagin (1917–2003), Kenneth Copeland (1936–), and Fredrick Price (1932–). 3 in 1956, Roberts published God's Formula for Success and Prosperity, which offered a systematic way to claim divine blessings; and in 1970 he introduced the Wealth Formula in his Miracle of Seed Faith 4. By the late 1970s, the For Faith movement had become prominent in North America. His theology attracted many preachers from major denominations, with a significant following not only among white Americans, but also among blacks and Hispanics. Many prosperity church associations have sprung up, pushing prosperity theology beyond North America. As the prosperity gospel crossed continental borders, it was warmly embraced in developing countries.5 This teaching is attractive and permeated Christendom (1) with its hermeneutics and theology that almost deifies the believer (see below); (2) music that glorifies poverty and claims material success; (3) miraculous homiletics to promote the sowing of seeds and positive confession of faith; and (4) a vibrant lifestyle that she promotes as a measure of faith and blessings. The influence of this movement is manifested not only in the number of its adherents, but also in adaptation to the teaching of prosperity, which is evident among other Christian denominations. There are indications of this influence among some Seventh-day Adventists in Africa.6 For example, some church members, including pastors, are adopting the theology and practice of prosperity preachers in anointing, music, prayer, and deliverance. Some church members also visit prosperity preachers for prayer and deliverance. From a scripture perspective, the teaching of prosperity demonstrates a deficiency in a number of critical areas that obscures the biblical understanding of prosperity. Three of these pitfalls are: The prosperity gospel lacks sound hermeneutics. While prosperity preachers cite scripture passages to support some of their claims, Scripture is not the primary source of their theology. Instead, they claim to have direct access to the divine mind and personally receive the knowledge of revelation - knowledge that comes directly from God to the believer in the spiritual realm. Philosophical idealism and mysticism underlie the concept of revelation of knowledge as taught by these preachers. Because the content of revealing knowledge often contradicts and supplants Scripture, traditional hermeneutics, including the historical-grammatical method, have no place in prosperity theology.
