About this sermon

What is the Prosperity Gospel, and why is it so controversial? Listen as Pastor John describes the origins, dangers, and widespread influence of this doctrine. He explains why he strongly opposes the Prosperity Gospel, which promises wealth and success to believers, by highlighting its theological flaws and harmful impact on individuals and churches worldwide. Through biblical teachings and personal insights, this video sheds light on the reality of following Christ and the call to a life of self-denial, service, and eternal hope. https://www.desiringgod.org/interviews/why-i-abominate-the-prosperity-gospel--2 APJ 231: “Why I Abominate the Prosperity Gospel” (December 6, 2013)
