A good book to read is Fox's Book of Martyrs. It list all the Christians who died for preaching the true Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. In some Strict Muslim countries under Sharia Law to Convert to Christianity from Islam is a crime punishable by death or prison. I'd like to see the Prosperity teachers explain that!

Connect the dots the Prosperity Gospel is linked with the tithe teaching to pay God or be cursed with a curse in Malachi that was never said to Christians redeemed from the curse of the law. Jesus took the curse on the tree for you Gal.3:13! We are free to give as lead by the Holy Spirit as we have purposed (some translation say decide) without pressure! Many Prosperity Teachings stay clued to the Old Testament as if Jesus never said Paid in full. According to them you must keep paying!

This is an example we can relate to: You are going ten miles over the written posted speed limit knowing you are breaking the legal speed law because you are in a hurry

Until you see an Officer of the law driving behind you. You slow down not because you want to but because their is a penalty for breaking the speed law. As soon as the cop drives in another direction you continue to speed -breaking the law.

The law had no power to change U. We have the Holy Spirit- better Covenant Hebrews 8:6 &7

Romans 3:20 "No one will be justified in His sight by keeping the law , by the knowledge of the law we become conscious of sin.'

Jesus went beyond the law to count even our ungodly thoughts the same as the behavior. The Old Covenant law was inferior because it was outward rituals and regulation and rules. We have the better new covenant-the infilling of the Holy Spirit. He leads & guides us into all truth! He will even convict and guide you in your giving and living!

Beloved this whole Prosperity Gospel came from promising a blessing for paying God money even tithing. They twist Matthew 23:23 as if Jesus was speaking to his redeemed after he said Paid in full. No way, beloved Jesus was speaking to law keeping Jews still under the law because Jesus had not yet nailed the law to the cross according to Col.2:14 He took it out of the way and nailed it to the cross.

All 613 Mosaic laws.

Romans 8:3 "what the law could not do God did by sending his Son"..

Romans 10:4 "Christ is the end of the law for righteousness for everyone that believes". Jesus said not one jot would pass from the law but precious beloved of the Lord you forgot the other half of the sentence UNTIL ALL HAS BEEN FULFILLED.

Jesus is the fulfillment of the Law! U CANNOT BE CURSED FOR NOT keeping the tithe law in Mal 3. Gal. 3:13 "Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law

14 so the blessing of Abraham comes by faith n the promise of the Spirit. Not by paying money/ tithes

Prosperity Teachers forgot these People acknowledged in Hebrews 11;35-40

...and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance that they might obtain a better Resurrection.. others had trial of cruel mockings & scourgings ..of bonds & Imprisonment. They were killed by the sword, they wandered around in sheepskins and goatskins being destitute, afflicted and tormented. Of whom the world was not worthy (of them)... These Are in the Hall of Fame for their Faith!
