THE JESUS OF THE WORD-OF-FAITH MOVEMENT

ANOTHER Jesus!

Apostle Paul writes about ANOTHER Jesus in 2nd Corinthians 11:4

For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted, you bear this beautifully.

ANOTHER Jesus?  Who is He?

Let us take a look at the Jesus who is preached by the Prosperity preachers!

The Jesus who was very rich when He was in the earth because He had to have a treasurer, supported Himself, 12 disciple and 70 others.  

The Jesus who got huge donations from rich women.  He even wore linen clothes which is the mark of being rich in those days.

The Jesus who had rich disciples:  John the beloved disciple supplied sea food to the Chief Priest’s house, Matthew who had a lot of money because he was a tax collector.

The Jesus who owned a big house which was big enough to have company stay the night in.

The Jesus who had connections with influential people like Nicodemus and the rich Joseph of Arimathea.

The Jesus who rebuked sick people for lacking in faith.

The Jesus who justifies sinners and gives them eternal life once they believe in Him but still keeps them “unsaved” until they go through the Romans road.

The Jesus who never asked to pray to God to cast out demons.

The Jesus who always cast out demons with the very first command of His mouth.

The Jesus who did an unfinished work at the cross.

The Jesus who went to hell and tormented by demons.

The Jesus who is NOT the ONLY begotten Son of God because we are sons of God too.

The Jesus who made human beings little “gods”.

The Jesus who got dismembered from the Divine Trinity by His Spiritual death.

The Jesus who asked the rich young man to sell all his possessions and to sow it as a seed offering into his ministry.

The Jesus who discouraged peristent prayers and asked to pray only once because that would reflect the lack of faith.

Hmmm…. This is the Jesus who is preached by our modern day  prosperity preachers.

Is this the Jesus that you and I know?

Is this the Jesus who was known by early Christians, Church fathers, Martin Luther, John Huss, William Tyndale, John Wycliffe, John Calvin, John Wesley, Charles Spurgeon, D.L. Moody, George Whitefield, Jonathan Edwards, Watchman Nee and countless other Christians who were jailed, tortured and killed?

NO this Jesus is that ANOTHER Jesus mentioned in 2nd Corinthians 11:4

ANOTHER Jesus, different Gospel and a different spirit – BEWARE Christians
