Prosperity Theology Comes To The SBC

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 มิ.ย. 2023
  • The SBC has never been known for teaching or practicing prosperity theology, but in the higher echelons and in the "powers that be" in the SBC, prosperity theology is alive and well. As we will see in today's podcast, the SBC just may owe Benny Hinn and Kenneth Copeland an apology.

      ​@@mikeflores7675 not everyone is privileged to work full-time for the Lord in ecclesiastical work. The Protestant Reformation brought honor to secular work that honors God. Besides, if everyone worked in the church where will the offerings come from? Who will work as farmers, doctors, mechanics, electricity technicians, hoteliers, food store employees, ect?

Justin makes his money by sitting in a chair all day making You Tube Videos - I don't consider ' MAKING MOVIES FOR JESUS ' legitimate work for the Master in His Vineyard ; and he does Criticize Pastors that actually have to meet people and be involved in their Problems : that work necessarily earns more money - and it should !

    As a current SWBTS student since 2018, I think that you should keep your heart guarded. This is not the last reckoning the school will face for it's administrative misconduct. The hardest part was watching all my professors getting fired because the school "couldn't afford it" knowing how much money was being spent on the President's House. It hurts even worse when I grew up in a prosperity church and left because of what I was taught at SWBTS.

      I attended the college from '18 to '20. Left because i saw the writing on the wall when they were harrassing Dr. Lopez and other students for having "unaligned" (for lack of better phrasing) positions with the school on a couple issues, which resulted in Dr. Lopez being fired the next semester. They also fired Dr. Mark Jansen at that time too. Their were 14 profs in the college at that time and those two were hands down the best at TEACHING and knowing the material that they were teaching. Ive looked at the staff since then and it looks like only Dr. Heister is still there (even the dean was replaced). I know little about him though.
      Edit: just finished the video. A point about student staff and putting food on the table: i made $8.50 an hour as student staff, and my wife went to the breadline every week for our 3 kids and we stretched that food out each week (i even made a garden at the student housing we were in to supplement the food) and now i learn about this extravagance.... betrayel seems like a good word here.
      My neighbor was a PhD student and worked 2 jobs on campus, and he, his wife, and 2 kids were almost anorexic they could never afford enough food. I wouldn't believe it of a seminary if i didn't live it. 😢

    Apparently the “elitist” mentality we have become so familiar with in recent years isn’t limited to politicians and celebrities. It is even more disgusting and disheartening to see it paraded about by so-called “servants of Christ”. Now that this information has been exposed publicly, I pray that we may live to see some public repentance and humility. I made a personal decision to dis-associate myself with the SBC when I began to see these tendencies locally a number of years ago. Thank you, Justin Peters for bringing us up to date. I pray God to encourage and strengthen you for the difficult assignment He has given you, to hold these false teachers, false prophets, and idol shepherds to account.

    I bought my husband an espresso machine for $100 a few years ago. It works great. My husband is a professor at a private university. He works four jobs, because they don’t pay well. He teaches his main job, he teaches evening classes as an adjunct professor at another university. He Ubers and he drives a truck, delivering for Amazon. He provides for us. It allowed me to homeschool my children. I’m like you, it doesn’t bother me if someone is paid well for a certain job. We don’t envy anyone. This just sickens me. Overspending others money is a sin. I attend an SBC church and I am praying about what to do. I wish they would leave the SBC. I don’t know of anyone in my church doing anything wrong, but they certainly have to know what’s going on in the SBC in total.

      Dallas Theological Seminary has its own issue, a very BIG problem. DTS teaches the false teaching of John Nelson Darby. It was Darby who, in the 1800s, introduced the heretical teaching of a Rapture of God's church before the Tribulations. There is no clear indication of this in the Bible. Darby also introduced the false doctrine of dispensation or dispensationalism. Darby even had his own Bible translation. The only way for SWBTS to "pull" through is to break away from the SBC - but since it's the SBC who controls the school and its teachings, highly unlikely.

    I grew up in a small SBC. When i married and started a family, i started seeing so many wrong things. We started looking elsewhere for a church home but all we found were cults. I worked for government for a while and sat through council meetings and representative meetings. Once I was invited to an SBC meeting and it was just as corrupt as the government. We quit going to church when they changed the music and when everything was either a Beth Moore or Rick Warren Study. We could see things creeping in that just didnt line up Biblically. They have even started hosting yoga classes in many SBC churches. We would love to be in a good Bible teaching church but have no clue where to turn. So many are cults. 😢

    Hi Justin, greetings from England. This is truly heart-breaking, but sadly is happening more and more. I'd never heard of Adam G before, but the last 3 pastors I've served under in my local church have each started enthusiastically, become proud of their achievements and then become entitled prima-donnas, descending into self-justifying lies and opulence. All claimed to eschew prosperity gospel but, in practice, sold their souls to it. I loved your comment about flying "coach", and that with CP. God bless you for exposing these thieves and liars.

    Just my perception from experience & observation. A forgotten phrase in the SBC Churches from way back in the day was " Soul Saving Station". That vaporized when "The Church Incarnate" became "The Church Corporate". Many called to serve instead became CEO rulers. It declined further when the 'worship' of the golden elephant and alignment with worldly politics increased.
    The falling away is not caused by those on the "outside". It's ALL about the money, follow the money.

    Amen, Bro Justin, it's the height of hypocrisy. Just unbelievable. I grew up, and still belong, to a missionary Baptist church my grandfather built many years ago. I have gotten the Baptist Progress since I was a child, I would read it cover to cover. I was very aware of all our sister churches, a mixture of the Baptist faiths. The only time I ever heard of trouble was when one or more churches that were going Pentecostal. Maybe there were indiscretions, but I never heard it. Nothing like today.
    These wolves in sheep's clothing need to be outed publically for what they've done. If it's kept behind closed doors, it will possibly encourage other wolves to do the same thing.

    the LORD for our actions not those of others. I was raised in the Baptist church the same one my mom attended and I remember Sunday school.
    When I was older coming home in leave from the military I can still hear the pastor preaching the real gospel staying true to the teachings of JESUS. This fire snd brimstone messages are what I miss; turn or burn hot home.
    Unfortunately in many churches the message has been toned down the word is not being taught but misaligned into man’s version of the gospel message. Now as I look around I see that many of the things the Bible talked about the events that would are happening today and seem to get worse each and every day.
    Justin you just stay you and keep on exposing those that are harmful to the good news that are causing people to become confused and many leaving the church all together.

We choose how to give with a cheerful heart. ❤ “Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7).
