The Prosperity Gospel: Where Did It Come From?: Gnostic Source? Or Spiritual Revelation?
Ebooks Online

The historical origins of the prosperity gospel is from an Gnostic source: that of reading "beyond" the mere text of scripture to seek some "deeper," hidden meanings. Thus, the prosperity theology is a pleasure-seeking religion and utilitarian in nature: that of the avoidance of pain in pursuit of happiness. The proponents of the prosperity theology give a vague, but simplistic "revelational" answers to complex issues. Due to the prosperity gospel association with that of New Thought metaphysics is that of the core of its beliefs and values are theologically flawed in its explicit denial of the essential doctrine of the Christian faith. The Christ of scripture have been made to fit into the cultural context of Faith theology as to wear designer clothes, thus Jesus was a product of God's spoken word of faith. There is no precedence in the Bible that support the idea of the health and wealth gospels.
