Bible Note: Jesified Ignored??? The health wealth gospel has permeated nearly every denomination and church. Why else do you think Christians in America have become so self centered and self absorbed. The church has patterned society everything is focused on self and enjoying life here on earth. Living longer and getting richer and forget all the unpleasantries. America’s churches have so learned to focus on the present situation that eternity means little. I know a couple that left a church because the Pastor was teaching on the rapture and they didn’t want to think about the rapture in fact they didn’t want Christ to return because they had just gotten married and wanted to have kids and grandchildren. Look at the stats. Mission giving falling all time low, giving to charity falling, church attendance falling, divorce within the church higher rate than outside church, sin within the church rising. No I think the Health and Wealth gospel is anything but ignored. EdB |
