OLAADEGBU: It is God's will that ALL humans dominate their environment. ' This is what is clearly stated in the opening chapter of Genesis I doubt an unhealthy person is capable of dominating his environment and in many parts of the modern world, it would be quite a task (although possible) to dominate ones environment without some financial muscle |

I wish ABOVE ALL THINGS that you PROSPER and be in HEALTH even as ur soul prospers. 3rd John 1:2. My emphasis is on 'above all things' |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by esere826: 1:05am On Nov 14, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:nope. Back to the discuss. Wealth and health are only some tools in dominating your environment. Your inquiry can be likened to asking this sort of question. "is it God,s will that every one lives?" It's what is done with life that matters. Not life itself |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by OLAADEGBU(m): 1:11pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU: Suggested answer: Word of Faith teaching is decidedly unbiblical. It is not a denomination and does not have a formal organization or hierarchy. Instead, it is a movement that is heavily influenced by a number of high-profile pastors and teachers such as Kenneth Hagin, Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Paul and Jan Crouch, and Fred Price. |

Anas09: Which one is above all things, prosperity, health or spiritual health? |

esere826: What do you think is above the 'tools' used in dominating your environment? ![]() |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by esere826: 10:27pm On Nov 24, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:it includes but not limited to wealth, heath, love, wisdom, war, treachery, understanding, knowledge, banter, smiles, laughter, pro-creation, .....you name it |

esere826: But what was Paul's wish for believers above all that? ![]() |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by esere826: 7:45pm On Nov 26, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:] Paul had many wishes for you and I. Which one are you referring to? And by the way, if we are not to stray too far from the OP which is this "Is the Word of Faith movement biblical? Is it God's will for all Christians to be physically healthy and financially prosperous?" ....then the answer is quite simple, albeit contextual. It's Gods' will that we dominate our environment. the tool for domination is not set in stone. A man washed unto an island would have no need for money. What he would require is good health, smart brains, hope, other people loking for him, perseverance, faith etc |

esere826: Am referring to his wish 'above all things'. What do you think that wish was? ![]() |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by orisa37: 1:39pm On Nov 27, 2015 |
Yes it is. It is simply Faith movement; Believers crusade and the sons and daughters of Abraham's gatherings and actions to win Souls for God. It is God's will for all Christians to be physically and spiritually healthy and rich and wealthy. |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by smemud(m): 3:48pm On Nov 27, 2015 |
The wordBiblecomes from the Greek word "Biblos," which is translated "book." The original manuscripts of the Bible were kept in the synagogues. Those who had custody of the manuscripts first usedthe Greek word to describe the collection, which later became knownas "the Book." |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by esere826: 3:55pm On Nov 28, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU: I am confused. It;s not this you're referring to right? "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth" |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by OLAADEGBU(m): 1:58am On Nov 30, 2015 |
orisa37: The world also wishes to be wealthy and healthy but what does God wish for His children above these? |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by OLAADEGBU(m): 1:59am On Nov 30, 2015 |
esere826: Yes. What is above all things there? |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by orisa37: 3:13am On Nov 30, 2015 |
To be with Him in Paradise. In Adam, we lost Faith. In C.J.we have it and many more including the Comforter back. And He said, "Where I am going, you cannot follow now. But I go to get your apartment, accommodation ready and I shall be back to take you there". So Jesus' coming back is severally to all who receive the Blessings of His Prayers in St. John's Gospel, chapter 17 !!!! 1 Like |

OLAADEGBU:First, It is my understanding that that verse was written by John, and not Paul hence my confusion. Next, "above all things" seem to suggest "my earnest desire" Using only english translations of the bible and not the original language texts prosper suggests material/physical growth Now, taking all three wishes together he was saying to Gaius, that its his wish/hope (not prayer) that Gaius grows materially(including financially) and spiritually while sustaining good health |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by OLAADEGBU(m): 11:23am On Dec 07, 2015 |
orisa37: What are these blessings? |
Re: Is The Word Of Faith Movement Biblical? by OLAADEGBU(m): 8:48pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
esere826: It was John and not Paul as you have rightly noted. My bad. ![]() esere826: It was a common thing for the pagans in the Roman world to be concerned about their health and wealth but John in his letters did not only wish the believers the same but in addition wished for their spiritual health above all. |
