From New Thought to Modern Prosperity: Testing the Doctrine by Scripture

Where did the modern prosperity gospel come from — and does it truly reflect the teaching of Scripture?In this episode of Last Christian Media, we trace the historical development of prosperity theology from its philosophical influences in the late 19th century to its rise in 20th-century Christian broadcasting. Then we carefully examine its primary claims in light of the Bible — including faith as a force, positive confession, covenant wealth, seed-faith giving, healing, suffering, and the true meaning of biblical prosperity.This is a thoughtful, Scripture-centered discussion designed to promote discernment and deeper understanding. Our goal is not personal criticism, but biblical clarity. We compare doctrine with the Word of God and ask a simple question: What does the Gospel actually promise?If you value serious, faith-based analysis rooted in Scripture, this episode will challenge and strengthen your understanding.You can watch the full video version on Roku and Amazon Fire TV by searching for the Last Christian Media app, or stream anytime at www.lastchristian.net.Visit our official store at www.lastchristian.net/store Support the ministry at www.lastchristian.net/supportThis program is provided for educational and faith-based discussion purposes.
