Matt Chandler/Mark Driscoll vs. Prosperity gospel (Who makes God more glorified?)

a random collection of videos from prosperity preachers and their twisting of scripture. It is juxtaposed with Matt Chandler, solid brother and teach in the Lord, and his accounts of his cancer, where He makes God look big, great, glorious, and awesome.

@inlow2 justin peters. solid preacher that specializes in prosperity theology. wrote his seminary dissertation on benny hinn crusades, he went to them to try and get healed from his cerebral palsy when he was a kid, ruined his faith, and then he came to a true knowledge of Jesus later.

You know, when I listened to those prosperity gospel "preachers" it made me feel like I was being used and lied to. I felt sick even listening to them. And when I listened to Matt Chandler and Mark Driscoll preaching, I just got chills up my arms. I saw how the holy spirit worked in their lives and they had a deep passion for Christ. And I just feel like getting down on my knees and begging God for forgiveness. I dont feel any of that when listening to prosperity gospel.

@jimboslic3n haha i dont think that could be more obvious from the video, i just couldnt fit all that in the title. sorry. but thats why i put him in here, its actually driscoll responding to the prosperity preachers.

Just because Mark Driscoll is able to condemn these things doesn't mean he is preaching the gospel as he should. His ministry is outright evil. He shames young men into conformity, which is not the way of the gospel. He claims he hates religion (by which he means legalism), but his ministry has more documented cases of systematic spiritual abuse and inflicted legalism than any other major church of which I know. I would rather sit under vacuous theology (Osteen) than Driscoll.

@tprovostdia when did driscoll become a big fan of td jakes? Yes they were in the same room together and discussed some issues. But no this doesnt mean they are best buds and assume that hes a fan of prosperity gospel... he merely said he was amazed at how humble jakes was despite the critisizm he never said 'i agree'.

No, judgement begins in the house of God. We don't judge unbelievers, but it is our DUTY to search the scriptures (like the Bereans in the book of Acts) and test what we hear according to what God has said. This is a dismaying question you ask, and reveals a big problem: many Christians don't understand that theology matters.

@swtladyval

Creflo Dollar speaks the gospel? I'd be very interested in hearing your summary of what the gospel is. There is no connection between what Paul describes as the good news and anything I heard in 25 years listening to the "prosperity" teachers, who "preach" for selfish gain only. I first heard real Jesus-centered teaching 3 years ago when I started attending Mars Hill Church. Glory to God!

@bball1989,

Thank You for making/uploading this video! This world needs more people willing to stand up for God's truth.

[tprovostdia]

Mark Driscoll you agree with this do you not??? I mean you are a big fan of T.D. Jakes - please repent Mark PLEASE - Until you do Mark we can only assume you are a fan of the prosperity gospel

[cdklassen2]

The problem with thinking the indwelling Holy Spirit makes us gods is that it completely goes against everything the bible teaches about humility. John the baptist said it perfectly.... "He must increase, I must decrease." The unfortunate thing for those who humbly evangelize and glorify God by healing others in Jesus' name (street healers for example), is that they are lumped together with those crooked televangelists who glorify themselves and steal money from God's children. A real shame.

@lileeslku hey, I can help you understand this more. I have answers

[fererorechero]

It makes me wanna vomit in listening to this prosperity in the world gospel preachers. :-&

[USFISTER]

@lileeslku Yes, it is. You shouldn't listen to people telling you what to believe. Search for yourself. Someone like Mark Driscoll is especially toxic because he speaks as if he has ultimate authority, like he is god.
