Which Gospel do you believe in?
The doctrines of the Prosperity Gospel, which have been widely preached by many Protestant preachers in the United States, have crept into the Catholic Church. Where did the Prosperity Gospel originate? And how did it become so entrenched in this country?
In this work, Thomas Storck reveals the deep roots of uncontrolled greed in our country. He contends that the absence of meaningful religious debate in American public life has emptied the public square of any transcendence, subjecting every area of social life to material gain: politics, the economics, education, science, the arts, and even religion itself.
How many of our everyday actions in America are conducted exclusively for worldly comfort, with little regard for anything beyond this life, or even for the common benefit of our society? How deeply have we been influenced by the allures of riches and wealth?
Here is a book that will expose one of the most heinous heresies that distorts Christ's teachings: the Prosperity Gospel. Only in heaven can we find our treasure, not on earth. We must understand the culture in which we live in order to try to be children of light and to guard ourselves from the temptations of our times, so that His will can be done on earth as it is in heaven.
