The one true gospel is the Christ died for our sins according to the screiptures, He was buried and raised the third day according to the scriptures, and Yeshua of Nazareth is the Christ of God. (Luke 24, 1 Cor 15:1-6) It is written, “Lo, in the volume of the book it is written of Me.” And Yeshua said in John, “Search ye the scriptures for in them ye think ye have eternal life, it is they that testify of ME.” “The Spirit of prophecy is the tectimony of Yeshua.”

So many of us spend so much time helping the hungry, thirsty and broken hearted. We spend time in homeless shelters, poverty stricken communities and drug rehabilitation clinics and see zero fruit from a “gospel” that doesn’t preach an all satisfying knowledge of Jesus Christ through the blessings of wealth or a tragedy beyond comprehension. We see the fruit of the world when the desires of this life become the center of our affection. We have found our reward when all we seek is more comfort in this life rather than the depth of an eternal God who is to be feared regardless of what type of roof we have over our heads.

Gary,
The reason why certain things need to be fought is because if these heretical teachings are not brought to light then sending this "gospel" into homeless shelters will not bring the water you speak of but will bring poison.

There is one true Gospel and the "prosperity gospel" is NOT it. The gate is narrow my friend. (Matt. 7:13)

Came across this discussion late tonight.

Why are you guys so addicted to religiosity…worshipping the book instead of the Writer.All this venom…all this wasted energy on who is correct and who is heretical…when there are people out in the world dying for hope.There is little attraction to the thirsty for the pure sand of your gospel.Where is the water?

Spend less time in conferences and more time in homeless shelters.Get a life!

Adam,
This is an excerpt from a conference Piper spoke at called Brothers, Think Preach and Think Christ. It’s available on his web site I believe. Good stuff huh? Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) is plagued with the prosperity gospel and I urge all Christians to write TBN stating your disgust of these “preachers”.
