Finding The Actual ‘Health, Wealth And Prosperity Gospel’ For The Church Age Hidden Inside Your King James Bible by Geoffrey Grider for Now The End Begins
On this episode of Rightly Dividing, we are venturing into territory marked out by popular Charismatics like Joel Osteen, Paula White, Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland and others who routinely preach messages about the health, wealth and prosperity of God. Funny thing, though, when you run the references in your King James Bible, they bring you to a markedly different conclusion than the ones outlined by the prosperity gospel preachers.
Just about everywhere I look today, online, on television, or in pulpits across America, I hear preachers preaching about the ‘health and prosperity’ gospel that Jesus wants you to be healthy and prosperous in your Christian life. This type of preaching is not limited to the Charismatic and Pentecostal movements, and is even showing up in many Southern Baptist Churches as well. So does the Bible, rightly divided and dispensationally correct, preach a gospel of health and prosperity? It sure does, but before you run right out to ‘name it and claim it’, let’s define health and prosperity according to the scriptures.
“Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.” Psalm 118:25 (KJB)

On this episode of Rightly Dividing, we are venturing into territory marked out by popular Charismatics like Joel Osteen, Paula White, Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland and others who routinely preach messages about the health, wealth and prosperity of God. Funny thing, though, when you run the references in your King James Bible, they bring you to a markedly different conclusion than the ones outlined by the prosperity gospel preachers. Don’t get me wrong, God loves to give good things to His children, and sometimes He really dumps it on us, but when He does it is for His glory, not our glory. Join us on this episode of Rightly Dividing as we define what health, wealth and prosperity are according to your King James Bible. I promise you it will be an eye-opener that will help you in your daily walk with the Lord Jesus Christ, and help free you from the bondage of false teaching.
