The Gospel of Prosperity
There are those within the ranks of Christianity who preach what is sometimes referred to as a ‘gospel of prosperity’. They claim that wealth is a sign of favour, or approval, from God. They feel that if a Christian person is wealthy then they must be living a ‘good’ life that God is rewarding through material possession. They use this as justification for further accumulation of wealth. We can see from today’s gospel that Jesus would have something to say about such an interpretation! Jesus reminds us that our reward is not in this world in the form of wealth and material possessions, but in eternal life.
